We have extremely different perspectives

Rupert Murdoch’s Skynews:

The protesters rallying for migration control on Sunday aren’t knuckle-dragging racists, but normal people who think open borders is a bad thing – that’s something that will shake the progressive activists to their core

In much of the media, the impulse has been to give less emphasis to the mass of people and try to shape the narrative around the rowdier reactionaries in the crowd and speakers with dubious ties and divisive platforms. While such elements deserve scrutiny, this doesn’t take into account, and even wilfully ignores several realities.

The Guardian:

Neo-Nazis used the shield of ‘ordinary mums and dads’ anti-immigration rallies to sell white supremacy

From online grievances about migration to men dressed in black in a sea of Australian flags, far-right groups clearly intended to capitalise on events

Politicians:

“There’s always good people who turn up to demonstrate their views on particular issues, but what we have seen here is Neo-Nazis being given a platform,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said.

“[These events were] attended by people of goodwill but hijacked by violent Neo-Nazis spouting hate and racism,” said Opposition Leader Sussan Ley.

    Your question is irrelevant. They weren’t organised by neo-nazi. Only 1 of them I believe let one of the neo-Nazis speak, and they were rightly criticised for doing so.

    Neo-Nazis attempting to take over a march about X and turn it into Y doesn’t make it a march about Y. You guys need to stop pretending it does, all you’re doing is trying to convince yourself and again - turning everyday people against you.

      Dodging it again, I see.

      They weren’t organised by neo-nazi.

      This has already been debunked multiple times in this thread (or the others). Repeating your lie won’t make it true.

      You guys need to stop pretending it does, all you’re doing is trying to convince yourself and again - turning everyday people against you.

      Only one person is “against us” here. Learn to take an L champ.
