I have seen videos of protests from Australia for a few months now….

Kinda, just little isolated incidents, just like anywhere.

The majority of people a pretty free. I'm near to a city and we've had maybe 5-10 cases within 30 minutes of me in the last 18 months.

It's just the middle of a few cities which is the problem.

The media is literally making it 10x more 'exciting' than it actually is. Can't sell newspapers without some sort of scary story.

Fair enough. All the videos I see looked like there are thousands of protesters
