"Rise of draconian anti-protest laws in Australia is highlighted by UN Special Rapporteur"
"A UN Special Rapporteur has raised concerns about increasingly draconian laws that restrict citizens’ rights to peaceful protest around Australia."
“Over the past 18 months, maximum fines for certain types of peaceful protest in some states increased 10-fold and prison terms trebled."
Australia: Deep divide between Government and community narratives on toxics fuels anger and distrust, says UN expert, Media release, UN- Special Rapporteur, 8-9-23.
“Draconian restrictions on the right to peaceful protest in several states aggravate the distance between State and society."

Man sollte nicht so naiv sein, zu glauben, Zeichnung dieser #Petition würde irgendetwas ändern.
Aber: Es ist mir unverständlich, dass die Beteiligung derartig gering ist, stellt die Zeichnung doch ein eindeutiges Signal des #Protests gegen das untaugliche #Klimaschutzgesetz dar.

back to protests for a while.
once during a “leftist” protest someone threw a bicycle rack through a shop window. we had to listen about ”violent rioting anarchists” for months.
to remind you, SuPo only deems far right individuals and organisations as violent and dangerous to national security. for a reason. you know, terrorism and such.
this was in the air on 2015 too but it was much more underground.
Yle article about protests in 2015.

"As we mark the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington, it is clear that protest politics are alive and strong in the United States. As was the case 60 years ago, gaping racial inequalities and social unrest have motivated widespread participation in marches, which over the past decade have focused on police brutality and immigration. Americans have participated at high levels in protest activities..."
