Comment on ‘Don’t mention Hitler and you’re sweet’: The great March for Australia deception

might have been the most confused march i’ve ever seen, a bunch of well intending people with a bunch of angry confused nutters
the only thing I got from it was that there’s a decent amount of people who want immigration numbers reduced

“Well intending people”?
No one that went to those marches was ‘well intentioned’. The people who went to these marches didn’t go because of any reason based in fact. They went because things are shit for the middle and lower class, but it’s easier to blame foreigners than to hold corporations and the rich to account. The people who marched are doughy brained racists, who were stupid enough to go to a rally that fascists attended, and then cheer them on.
Immigration numbers have been on the decline for the last 18 months after the expected post-Covid jump. This is coming from the Australian Bureau of Staristics: www.abs.gov.au/statistics/people/…/mar-2025 Immigration is a boost to our economy, and restrictions on the type of workers who are immigrating already exist to boost the workforces that white Australians are leaving fallow.
My aunt went to the local march. My aunt who is married to my uncle, the first generation immigrant. But he obviously doesn’t count because he was born in Ireland. The fascists may have put some things in her head that day, but she went to the march of her own volition.
