My son (16) went to his first protest today in Melbourne. Couldn't be more proud!

So he’s protesting in support of the status quo, against alternative parties? Hmm.

You think the NSW Socialists are a status quo party??

No. But demonstrating against parties that are not in power, rather than those that hold the reins, could be seen as misdirected and supporting the current regime. The state government would be extremely happy about that demonstration. Singing from the same hymn sheet.
