I've voted for the greens in every election this century.

Who preferences Labor. Thus yes, yes you did.

The greens don't number the boxes on my ballot paper.

Do you not know how voting works?

And it's both LNP and Labor that have voted for these laws mate. They vote with each other on most issues, like 95% of the time.

I was happy to watch cops fight with cookers. I think we both agree that it made for entertaining viewing.

I didn't vote for a government that gave cops more power to crack down on protests.

This has been explained to you multiple times. Do you have problems with your memory?

You spent months, if not years, providing support to the Andrews' government response against protesters on the SRP despite living in another state. That speaks volumes to me.

Peaceful protest should be a fundamental right of any healthy democracy at all times. That's especially true when government is seeking extraordinary levels of control such as they did during the pandemic.

You're not for the rights of protesters. You're for the rights of your own.

this country is ****ing ridiculous. the other day they had a talkback segment that was just an hour solid of people calling in with ideas on what to ban next. cash, sugar, fast food, beer etc etc etc. didn't seem to occur to a single caller nor the host that maybe simply banning everything might not be the best way to tackle these "issues". **** me they want to turn this place into one big highschool where the government micromanages every aspect of your life because god knows you can't be allowed to make any decisions whatsoever. you might make a bad one!

As I have said before, never underestimate 2 things

1)The gross Govt Overreach/Creep.

2) Australian willingness to be subjugated and compliant.

Both were in full flight during COVID. That was a just a dry-run of what is to come.

US citizens are tracking in the right directions. Aussies are tracking in the wrong direction.

No. Why would I?

 

[Ghost Patrol]

No. Why would I?

You have posted plenty of rants against extinction rebellion. You don't support their right to protest if they block an intersection. Cookers, on the other hand.... you go into bat for their right to protest.

Cookers marched through the cbd during the pandemic when there was no traffic. Your team blocked the West Gate Bridge to deliberately target mum and dad plebs in traffic during peak hour.

Serial climate protesters jailed for blocking West Gate Bridge

A Sydney activist is among the three climate demonstrators who allegedly blocked inbound lanes on Tuesday morning, triggering a 25-kilometre traffic jam.

You wont win public support by targeting the public.

But should it be against the law?

Not necessarily. It's complicated.

Your beloved cookers blocked the same bridge. They were also spitting at medical staff and threatening media and politicians with violence etc.

Anyways, this back and forth started when I wished that bunch of numbers guy good luck with his ipad protest. You seemed to take offense at that.

Weird.

Not to mention giving each other pink eye.

Hypocrisy is a big part of the belief system.

I've been targeted by cookers a couple times because of my work. I found it amusing - much better than them blocking my way home.

Falling apart already:

Rowland says Snapchat could be excluded from social media regulations

The communications minister has continued doing the media rounds this morning, speaking on 2GB about the government’s move to regulate social media companies.

She said that part of the plan was to encourage “low-risk services” like YouTube Kids.

Rowland also said Snapchat could also be excluded, and that some platforms “present themselves in different way”:

We will go through, in a methodical way, having these criteria and the eSafety commissioner applying what will be a very transparent process.
Some of these platforms do present themselves in different way.
They will argue, for example, that they are messaging services and not social media services. We need to assess that objectively against a transparent set of criteria.

 

[burge13]

It's a shame all the right wingers and 'centrists' happily waved through all those anti-protest laws over the past 20 years.

Good luck with your protest.

There's protests on every single week

Isn't Snapchat one of the worst platforms for teens being exploited?
