Some choice quotes:
[7:26, from an ex-NSN neo-Nazi in the March for Australia recap voice chat] “What surprised me is like, how handsy people got. I had someone pushing me in the back. I had another guy […] threatening to punch my friend’s teeth in.”
Anecdotally, some had veterans grabbing their mouths to shut them up. Many people completely unfamiliar with the group reported that it was obvious they’d divided into tiny clusters of 4 spread in the crowd to avoid being shut down easily.
[9:00, same chatroom] “The lesson I’ve taken is we gotta enforce the 1-metre rule very heavily next time” [a self-defense guidance of keeping 1 metre distance from opponents in a fight, in this context their opponents are the crowd of ANZAC veterans and commemorators]
They seem surprised that doing this stunt is alienating them from many nationalists and might push the Overton window away from them.
We also get some prime crying from a Perth idiot pretending they didn’t come in a co-ordinated group to desecrate a commemoration day, ranting to their phone about being moved along by cops. The booing at Perth ended up being clearly only one or two quiet Nazis as a result.



there’s no the. It’s “Welcome to country”
to translate: It’s an indigenous protocol welcoming people to the land on which they stand. And it is **very **appropriate to have at a gathering of people brought together for a common purpose.
We have the oldest living culture in human history, fucking embrace it.
Is it appropriate to insult ANZAC veterans and the fallen by saying, “You who fought and died for this country do not belong here, but we welcome you?” I do not think so. “Welcome to country” is only appropriate for occasions such as a citizenship ceremony. Even in such cases it is questionable, because the ceremony is rooted in racism and should not exist in a civilized country.
Nope. Stick that baiting shit right back up your arse. That is not what welcome to country is and you fucking well know it.
For those at home, welcome to country is very much like “we welcome all of you who have gathered here today”. Which you will find seems familiar. Because it gets used a lot. Including at the start of every ANZAC ceremony that i’ve artended in the past 40 odd years.
What TheHolm here is doing is intentionally trying to muddy the waters and oh look, there’s a “racist against our national heroes!!!” card. Rather suss, is it not?
How on EARTH did you get “racist against the troops!!!” out of an aboriginal protocol welcoming people to an ANZAC ceremony?
i get you’re arguing in bad faith but that’s some spectacular gymnastics.
