Reformed neo-Nazi tells royal commission he was sold a 'load of lies'

With J6ers getting jobs in the justice department, and presidential memorandum NSPM-7 targeting the “left-wing” and “anti-fascists” as terrorists, it's never been more important to support those tracking the far right.

2/ FWIW, anti-fascists tried to prevent Sewell & his nazi gang from joining the March for White Australia in AUG last year but were no match for NSN + VIC Pol; Sewell ended up addressing a few 1,000 gormless racists from the steps of the VIC parliament, later Carrying On to Camp Sovereignty.

Why 'social cohesion' is a dangerous phrase in Australian politics – Jeff Sparrow

Fuck all the way off with this. Howard has never liked multiculturalism. Not because it denotes ‘different tribes’ but because he can’t imagine anyone but someone who looks and thinks like him as ‘Australian’.

Having now taken the time to properly digest this, let me say: This is something else! Not just a great new playbook, not just impeccable layout, but a whole magazine's worth of new factions (each with their own business card).
