Counter rallies countrywide are being held on October 19th. Share the word. Bring as many friends as you can. Numbers are our strength.


Journalist Tom Tanuki gives an outline of the fallout following the “March for Australia” in August, reiterates that the protest is primarily organized by self-professed neo-Nazis and white nationalists, discusses a couple of the state organizers, and notes that the NSN are falsely claiming they won’t be attending this one, which in reality simply means they won’t be in uniform, just like last rally when they claimed they would come in uniform and most members were privately instructed instead to come in plain clothes.

Here’s Tom’s reupload of their copyright-striken video summarising the NSNs tactics, including having members as official marshals and having members work as plainclothes confederates to feign regular support, as well as highlighting some of the resistance to the NSN by duped M4A speakers and attendees, and by antifascists.

    It’s a ritual that we have a whiskey when I go to pay my rent. Couldn’t be nicer. It’s just hard to reconcile with some of the more irrational beliefs. Honestly my dad is worse in some ways, my dad would have been much happier if he was born 40 years earlier. Australian Society in the 50s would have been a lot more his pace.

      I don’t like my dad for very different reasons other than his political views to be fair, but that’s a whole other story…
