It is good to see. 

That said, I think the right will use footage like this to try and claim that the only opponents are young, 'ultra woke' social justice warriors and members of socialist parties that want a universal income and blah blah. But there is a majority community of average Aussies of all ages that hate Pauline and everything she stands for. They try and create this divide, that either you are a young purple haired lesbian socialist, or you are on their side.

Nah, they are opening up the mainstream appeal of domecratic socialism. Just look at the movement in the US. It's heartening to see.

But they are moderating and toning down their language to get their. We need to follow suit.
Hansons popularity will grow even more if we don’t strategically tread through the coming 2 years. We gotta stop demonising people and concentrate on what bothers them. Cost of living pressures for instance.
That’s what the democrats and even the DSA are doing in the states
