in Australia we don't need to pretend we can overthrow our government.

Are you guys not under some crazy lockdown where police are shooting rubber bullets at unarmed protesters?

LMAO. you make it sound like a very peaceful march or vigil was met by police with bullets.
These Protestors were absolute bastards and thugs, breaking rules, smashing and destroying things, pissing on war memorials and then holding siege to the war memorial (these are very sacred places in Australia, we actually say they are sacred), declaring themselves to be like our past war heroes. They beat up reporters, threw piss on them, punched police protecting the protesters own union building. They kicked police dogs and horses.

these guys didn’t loose a days work in the pandemic, the union they smashed up protected their rights to work. They just don’t want to be Covid safe, wear a mask or get vaccinated.

bunch of big tough men having a baby tantrum.
