  1. So, it now seems like ASIO will be able to:
    - arrest you for questioning with approval rubber-stamped by the AG (instead of a warrant after a judge being shown evidence)
    - detain you indefinitely

    If you are arrested or detained by ASIO, it's now illegal to:
    - tell someone that happened to you
    - refuse to speak (rely on the right to silence)

    This includes children as young as 14 years old—meaning they can't tell their parent or guardian that they've been arrested.

    Lawyers are permitted to be present during questioning, but I'm not sure if they are included in the "you can't tell anyone" clause of the legislation, and the ASIO agents who are conducting the interrogation get to dictate how they advise and interact with their clients.

    Your lawyer can also be removed if those ASIO agents decide they're a "security risk".

    Your lawyer isn't allowed to intervene during the interrogation (to tell you your rights, for example), and can only ask for the agents to clarify a question or ask for you to be able to have a break.

    This legislation will also have no sunset clause. It'll be permanent.

    (this is only from a quick scan of the legislation, I'm sure there's a bunch of other things I'm missing atm)

  2. So, apparently a 21 year old man in Bathurst has been charged with various offences after police found numerous books detailing how to make pipe bombs, the materials for making pipe bombs, some pipe bombs, and over 50 stolen snakes in his home.

    None of the offences are terrorist offences.

    Interesting. 🤔

  6. Senior police have taken less than a day to deploy anti-protest powers that were rushed into law after the Bondi Beach terror attack.

    NSW Police late on Christmas Eve moved to ban protest rallies from key metropolitan areas in Sydney after legislation was passed earlier the same morning to allow the action following declared terrorist incidents.

    Meanwhile, Indigenous groups have raised concerns an extension of the police anti-protest designation could render "invasion day" protests on January 26 unlawful.

    Mr Minns said the assemblies could take place, although he drew a distinction between static rallies and marches through the city.

  7. Minns government ‘actively’ considering if Jewish security group should be armed after Bondi attack

    Chris Minns has said his government is “actively” considering whether a Jewish security group should be armed in the wake of the Bondi terror attack, as he confirms police will carry long-arm rifles for the first time at Sydney’s major New Year’s Eve event.

  8. The way politicians are jumping on the "this is because anti-Semitism goes unchecked!" bandwagon with regards to the Bondi shooting, but at the same time are literally using it to push anti-Islamic discourse and policies.

  9. Chris Minns:
    Oh no, I wish there was simply SOMETHING we could do to stop nazis!

    NSW Police:
    *approves Form 1 for nazi rally*

    Vic Courts:
    *releases Thomas Sewell on bail*

    Chris Minns:
    ..if only there was something...

  10. Meanwhile, you fuckers will try and shut down every single pro-Palestine protest with bullshit claims that they're anti-Semitic.

    1. Neo-Nazis fill in Form 1 to inform police of intention to assemble.

    2. Police AUTHORISE the assembly.

    3. Police OBSERVE the assembly.

    4. Police OBSERVE the chanting of anti-Semitic slogans.

    5. Police OBSERVE the display of anti-Semitic banners.

    6. Police OBSERVE the declaration of anti-Semitic hate speech over loud speakers.

    7. The nazis pack up and head home without any police intervention at all.

    "The demonstration – which lasted less than 20 minutes in total – was observed by police. The protest was authorised: the group had filled out a “form 1”, a notice of intention to hold a public assembly, which had not been opposed by police."

    "The rally was approved despite new laws, which came into effect on 15 August, making it a crime to intentionally incite hatred against people because of their race, nationality or ethno-religious background."

    "[NSW State Premier] Minns said he was concerned that neo-Nazis could gather in significant numbers outside parliament house, carrying a racist sign and yelling Hitler Youth chants, and not be in breach of any laws."

    THEY WERE IN BREACH OF LAWS, YOU FUCKING MUPPET.

    The cops just didn't DO anything. And you think giving them MORE powers is the solution??

  11. We're told that after the war
    The Nazis vanished without a trace
    But battalions of fascists
    Still dream of a master race
    The history books they tell
    Of their defeat at '45
    But they all came out of the woodwork
    On the day the Nazi died

    They say the prisoner at Spandau
    Was a symbol of defeat
    Whilst Hess remained imprisoned
    And the fascists, they were beat
    So the promise of an Aryan world
    Would never materialize
    So why did they all come out of the woodwork
    On the day the Nazi died

    The world is riddled with maggots
    The maggots are getting fat
    They're making a tasty meal of all
    The bosses and bureaucrats
    They're taking over the boardrooms
    And they're fat and full of pride
    And they all came out of the woodwork
    On the day the Nazi died

    So if you meet with these historians
    I'll tell you what to say
    Tell them that the Nazis
    Never really went away
    They're out there burning houses down
    And peddling racist lies
    And we'll never rest again
    Until every Nazi dies

  12. tbc I am a prison abolitionist.

    I just don't believe that we should begin with letting literal Nazis free.

  13. Thomas Sewell got 200 hours of community service.

    Because the 150 hours he's previously had worked so well.

  14. This is a good article.

    “Australia is an institution of racism,” the Camp Sovereignty founder, Krauatungalung elder Robbie Thorpe, told Guardian Australia on Tuesday. “It’s the institutions of this country that have allowed this to manifest. They’re running around saying stop immigration; they’re immigrants themselves.”

    Australia has a long history of white nationalism, from the systemic violence inflicted on Indigenous people from the early days of British colonisation, to the White Australia policy and, more recently, its brutal offshore detention regime.

  15. ..if only Victoria had laws that could prevent this sort of thing.

    Wait.. since 2022?

    Thomas Sewell has faced court multiple times in the past 3 years, for physical violence as well as breaking Victorian anti Nazi legislation. He's gotten 150 hours community service for beating a Black security guard. A year later he was sentenced for attacking some hikers with a group of his nazi friends, he got 5 weeks (already served while awaiting trial). They know he was friends with Brenton Tarrant (the Christchurch Mosque shooter) and had invited him to join his nazi groups.

    But, you know.. Lads will be Lads.

  16. Jacob Hersant arrested for booing an Aboriginal Elder performing the Welcome to Country in Melbourne for the ANZAC Dawn Service.

    Seems like he learned his lesson from the single month of bail he was sentenced to for throwing a nazi salute last year.

    _____

    * he could have been sentenced to 12 months’ imprisonment and/or a fine of $24,000

    ** his lawyer argued (successfully) that it was a non-violent crime

    *** he literally walked out of the courthouse and told the press he was a "soldier of Hitler's"

    **** I'm 100% an abolitionist and I'm fucking tired of seeing shit stains like this get mercy from the courts while my people are killed in custody

    ***** if someone kills him I'll suck your dick and cook you the best bœuf bourguignon you've ever tasted - I'm very good at both.
