  • Yes, the major city protests were run by known and open neo-Nazis. Yes, the designated speakers were consistently and explicitly advocating European/"White" supremacy. These are pro-fascist protests by design, and it's concerning that many people didn't recognise the previous one for what it evidently was.
  • They are planning to run a third March for Australia rally on 26th Jan, and other similar far-right/fascist protests have been planned between now and then. And if we don't continue to grow the counter protests and stamp this out like last time, the fascists will keep escalating.

The impression I had before these rallies was that they were a great recruitment drive opportunity for Nazis.

The impression I had after these rallies was that they were a successful Nazi recruitment drive.

There is no way there was 15000 at first Adelaide rally.

I get so embarrassed when I see these idiots. I can't watch this video, the cringe is too much for me.

Just saw a guy today with nazi tattoos. Unashamed.

It's just awful.

I loved old mate flag bearer in the high-vis at the Brisbane march footage. He didn't need anyone else there, his day was all about that flag.
