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.

    Again OAD data cannot be used to quantify NOM data. I’m telling you what the current issues are that are causing housing affordability to be obscene.

    I agree Labor are doing fuck all about it, I’m livid at this current governments inaction on many issues but destroying the economy by killing immigration isn’t going to solve anything, direct your anger where it’s needed.

    I am sorry you are unable to comprehend these things, asking for people to disagree with you then clearly ignoring their arguments is a pretty pathetic look, even on the internet.
