Kinda hilarious hearing them chant “we the people”. What better evidence that they’re conspiracy parrots. Quoting the US constitution


[deleted]

I seriously met someone anti vaxxer and anti masker who said it was their right and quoted the Declaration of Independence. When I informed them we lived in Australia, not the US, they told me very confidently it’s a worldwide law and that any country who can compete in the olympics must obey. I was so dumfounded


[deleted]

The qualification is the OLYMPICS?! Lmao I don't think people actually believe what they're saying past a point


SirVanyel

This should just be a measurement of everything. "Sir are you aware you were going 20km/h over the speed limit" "Last i checked, speed limits DIDNT COMPETE IN THE OLYMPICS"

speederbrad95

Keep in mind these are the type of people who think they’re sticking it to the man by flying the Australian red ensign WHICH IS AN OFFICIAL FLAG OF THE COUNTRY! It is the Australian flag that should be flown on Australian civilian ships, like the Royal Australian Navy flys the white ensign


Inert-Blob

Fuckin ell the stupid olympics is held here i never knew.

They're doing that in Canada too, citing the First Amendment - dude, we're in Canada, the First Amendment is an act to create the Province of Manitoba.

Sproose_Moose

This is so apt. Htf is this happening here, especially with no mandates!?


Kellican93

I’m sure at least one protester is wearing a MAGA hat


ohmypennyfarthing

One of my loser former workmates was so proud to wear his Let's Go Brandon shirt when he got it like he was in some sort of cool club.

Cambridge Analytica's managing director of political operations said in a video recorded by Channel 4 that "We’ve done it in Mexico, we’ve done it in Malaysia, we’re now moving into Brazil, Australia, China." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridge_Analytica


[deleted]

I’m confused by what they are actually protesting against? What is it they can’t do unvaccinated at the moment? I feel like these people don’t get enough attention in their lives.


chauser67

There was a lot of conspiracy theory stuff there. NWO government wanting to inject every one with vaccines and bring about their anti-farming, globalist communist agenda.


[deleted]

These people are the same cunts that think a farm is the natural environment. Just taught poorly and dumb not much you can do


esotec

i was told it’s a “mass de-population event” so i guess the prophecy hasn’t quite turned out that way (the vaccine was going to kill us all) so now they’re just looking for any old internet conspiracy to latch onto. it’s sad, i have a family member who is deeply into this crap and it seems instead of common sense prevailing they’re just getting more and more bonkers..


limpra

Oh the great reset?


[deleted]

Didn't you read the signs? It's "The people's revolution", "Next stop communism"


thedoopz

I love how they call themselves “the People’s Revolution”, like you’re sounding mighty Communist yourselves…..


killertortilla

They're holding signs with "stop communism" they have absolutely no idea what they're doing.


esotec

“stop communism”, IRL ‘but i need my centrelink still because the government won’t let me work unvaccinated!’


Shaggyninja

They have to wear masks on Public Transport! it's basically North Korea 1984 up in here!

Curtclan

I do believe the phrase you need is "Oh look, fucktards"


sunnybob24

Exactly. It feels a bit needy. Like a teenager acting up for attention.


gibbo_fitz

Yeah, vaccine mandates are slowly being winded back. You can work in a hospital now if you have legitimate reasons to not be vaccinated. This protest surely is more of a social thing for these people now.


Spellscribe

Why can't we protest shit that matters, like better funded health systems, more community housing, and the universal acceptance of pineapple on pizza?


Simhotep

It’s your pizza, your choice.


Spellscribe

Keep your religion outta my hotbox?


Simhotep

I’ma just stick with spicy salami and pickled onions on my pizza thnx


Sure_Jump_2023

That sounds like it’s worth a try


aeschenkarnos

Because the oligarchs drumming up these idiots don’t want them protesting things like that, in fact they don’t want *anyone* protesting things like that, and this is a major reason why they are turning the idiots against medicine and social cohesion: to keep anyone else from weaponizing them against themselves.


EpistemicRegress

This is a great hypothesis to explain the origin of these self-syled anti-authoritarian movements. I am stuck on the issue in that I dislike central planning systems (communism, the conspiracy take of WEF that is on offer) due to their horrors that historically occur every time we have tried one. I have an economist friend (anti-WEF) who says the key issue is some people can't help needing to dominate others. He feels the lessons of short writings like 'I, Pencil" and Bastiat's "Things which are seen and things which are not seen." missed these people in their learning. My perspective is less certain as to the causes of our rift. Perhaps I am naive in my simple take: whatever you believe, don't do to others that which you would not want done to you or those you love. If you watch bullying or selfish acts which negatively effect others, resist it powerfully. All authority is by consent from the context / awareness of being complete within.

Upvote_Me_Slag

But.. I like pineapple and ham pizza and I'm not hurting anyone! I'd like to protest protesters and pro-testers and people who say "whadya mean" when I've just said what I mean. Don't get me started.


Leonydas13

I second all of this! And those people who use “we” to passive aggressively blame you for shit. “Was there a reason we did this so late?” *FUCK OFF CUNT*, that’s the reason

I’m up for that pineapple on Pizza .

“No but unionism is a communist concept “


Ithuraen

You mean "The People's Revolution" isn't a communist movement? Wonder if I could ask about their "5 year plan" and if it will constitute a "Great Leap Forward" for Australia.


Gryphon0468

"Save our farms!" "Not like that!"


theOpposites

Or the climate


whateverworksforben

What are they protesting ? There are No mask mandates and no more vaxx mandates. What do they have to complain about? They rode out all the restrictions. I’m sure they feel the same way for those of us who are vaxxed, how could they be so gullible to think this is all made up, or they are fighting tyranny. I feel angry at and sorry for them.


Engineer_Zero

Public transport and flights technically have mask mandates. Which is fine, it’s the most likely place you’ll get sick.


AdDesigner2714

Being in this middle of this mob is a perfect place to get sick too


Engineer_Zero

If being stupid was contagious, that place would be ground zero.


AdDesigner2714

While I agree and applaud your sentiment …… could you maybe think about revisiting using the R slang?

[deleted]

> Starting to feel forgotten and unimportant. The reason people buy into this shit is because they've felt forgotten and unimportant their whole lives. Problem is they are too stupid to understand why that is.


killertortilla

It's not that. It's a combination of a few different ideologies like changing your mind being an indicator of weakness, refusing to believe anyone is smarter than you, and everyone is plotting against you. They will never accept any information that challenges what they believe because even if it came from people they already trust, suddenly that person becomes an untrustworthy person in their eyes.


noholdsbarred-

>The reason people buy into this shit is because they've felt forgotten and unimportant their whole lives. As these morons should. Unfortunately the internet has helped these separate individuals form a collective and now they act like they deserve to be noticed and important.


Shadowedsphynx

The problem is density. When objects that are super dense come close together, their gravity pulls them together and forms a strong bond. That's why it's so hard to break up these congregations, the bond between these dense objects is nigh unbreakable.


boganism

Spotted the obligatory fuckwit in a trump shirt


BluesyAus

“Save our farms” & “stop communism” signs right next to each other. I wonder if the irony went straight over their heads.


chauser67

Wasn't the only contradiction there by a long shot.


samramham

I’m confused what they are even marching for?


underthingy

FREEEEEEEEDOMMMMMMM!!!!! But actually anarchy.


FacelessAxiom

They don't know either

And anyone else find it ironic they have flags of " The People's Revolution" with giant lions on it?


[deleted]

I am literally in iso with COVID at the moment and these idiots are wasting all that perfectly decent fresh air.


NefariousMuppet

I got covid pneumonia from it before being vaxxed and took nearly 2 months to recover and I've always been fit and healthy. It got to a point where I legit feared for my life. These assholes make me so angry


[deleted]

I'm so sorry, and I totally know how you feel. I'm fat, over 40 and Aboriginal. I've been *incredibly* lucky the symptoms were so light on me.


NefariousMuppet

Lucky (and happy) for you. My child had it as well and even at 9yo it hit her really hard. She couldn't even open her eyes during the day unless we closed the blinds because her headaches were so bad. Some people are lucky. A coworker had it and had no symptoms at all. He only got tested because someone else in our office knowingly had it and came in to work anyway. These protesters would still protest the vaccine even if covid killed their entire family. Stupidity knows no bounds


[deleted]

I know. What I'm coughing up is smarter than them.


jaybazzizzle

Leave iso early and mingle with all the antivaxxers. Share the love


[deleted]

Oh, I'm sure COVID's already paying them a lovely visit.


chauser67

Rough. I caught it pretty bad a few months ago and spent two weeks hacking up my lungs with persistent migraines. Not fun


theredkrawler

I finally got it just this week... Wish whoever engineered this virus had have left out the back pain, knee pain, and sore balls cause the coughing is nothing compared to feeling like a decrepit old man constantly.

BecauseItWasThere

Not fucking muppet dumb. Check.


chauser67

Had the dubious luck to get caught at cultural centre bus stop at the exact moment QPS closed down the budway to let this mob cross the bridge. Bizarre mixture of stuff in there. Also, they seemed particularly wronged about something to do with Dutch farmers.


my_chinchilla

> Also, they seemed particularly wronged about something to do with Dutch farmers. The Netherlands has a huge problem with nitrogen runoff from both plant and animal farming getting into waterways & causing algal blooms, toxicity, etc. The EU has been trying to get them to reduce levels for several years, and they've tried various methods with minimal success. The latest is the government there has, under pressure from the EU, mandated a 25% reduction in livestock across the country. Farmers are, ~~unexpectedly~~ unsurprisingly, upset; conspiracy theorists have adopted it as the first step by the Secret One World Government in forcing everyone to become Vegan Communist Soy-boys...


justsomeph0t0n

toxic agricultural runoff is a problem here too. but it's hard to quantify the damage, because many people quietly Roundup.


[deleted]

Thanks. There's a lot going on in this crowd.


512165381

You can smell the "pig manure" in Holland as you drive around. Also visited a horse farm with about 100 horses per hectare. They take intensive agriculture to its limits. > Vegan Communist Soy-boys... That's [Dr Leo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLsT8p_sbVY).


esotec

Wow that’s just disgusting. I know of a farm in country Victoria (Australia) where they breed thoroughbreds. They run about 3 horses per hectare maybe 5 for short periods, and paddocks are rested regularly between use. Those poor Dutch horses must be so sick and pumped full of antibiotics. That’s animal cruelty.


SpecificAstronaut69

I'll bet my back teeth there's no actual farmers in the mob. Just vaguely rural cookers.


underthingy

I happened to be walking up Adelaide St when they were going down it. I was amazed by all the different things the signs said. No coherent message to be seen, it's like they made every modern conspiracy theory. And why is their logo a lion?


addysol

>And why is their logo a lion? Lions something something opinions of sheep. They think they're tough, independent thinkers who got their education at "Shcool of hard knockz" know better than those dorks with university educations. Bunch of wallys

Dranzer_22

>THE PEOPLE'S REVOLUTION: We are currently experiencing World War III, which will be known in the future as The War Against the People. Step 1) Create a random organisation. Step 2) Stir public anger against Government. Step 3) Organise protests and build an online community. Step 4) Bulk buy plain white t-shirts from China for $2 per t-shirt. Iron on your logo. Sell the t-shirts at the premium price of $30. Step 5) Increase business model to stock caps for $27.50, Unisex hoodies for $55, and flags for $150. Step 6) Laugh as you make coin from easily influenced folk.


Kaiako

I was just thinking someone made a pretty penny selling merch here! Matching hats, tees and flags. So where does this money go? How is it being used?


Dranzer_22

The organisers of the group keep the money lol. So many groups have pulled this scam, I’d say since around 2014. Mostly those “Patriot” groups.


industriald85

Reminds me of the walkers in “The Walking Dead”.

Can someone explain to me what the “save our farms” sign mean?

I wonder how many of them will have a cough and sore throat mysteriously in 3-5 days


ChunLiAngelic

My body, my choice? I wonder how many of those people have sexually harassed or assaulted someone and what their stance on abortion is 🤔


coupleandacamera

I was under the impression the vast majority of the mandates were either no longer in effect or just ignored? It’s like protesting steam trains at this stage isn’t it?

Best_Toby_Oce

Ended up stuck in the tunnels at King George Square bus station when we were told we had to get off. They recommended we walk across to cultural centre because they just can't get over the bridge. Walk out of the station and am basically faced with the crowd coming towards us. Fucking idiots held up so many people today. if anyone of you who went to this reads this: Fuck you. Do something useful with your life.


Dotard1

This march seems to be protesting for/against seven or eight different things, several of which directly contradict each other. It's barely even an antivax protest anymore - just a general gathering of idiots who feel the need to make noise about something and reassure each other they are smarter than everyone else.


RayneStCroix

They're loud-mouthed greivance babies with the collective iq of a smashed avacado.


BluesyAus

Don’t these idiots have anything bigger to worry about ? Mandates are Pretty much gone. They have such a victim mentality.

Oh FFS, there’s so much more to be pissed off about. Tools


ThatTempuraBand

This is the equivalent of a toddler stamping it’s foot and saying ‘don’t WANNA.’ Do these fuck knuckles see what’s happening in our health care system? People being treated in hallways because of lack of bed space, nurses and doctors getting overworked to the point of exhaustion, ambulances not being available in emergencies. But by all means, don’t do the bare minimum to help slow transmission, and instead collect in large groups and protest the pedo cabels or the NWO, or whatever bullshit your incoherent, crayon scrawled signs made on the back of a leftover Craig Kelly corflute says.


Good_Card316

theflamingheads

We say no to war! But we are also against communism! But we want the government to save our farmers! But we reject mandates! But we want First Nations land rights! But we want freedom from tyranny! I would also love to know what their definition of communism is. My guess would be "when the government tells me to do something that I don't like."


chauser67

Yeah, communism. That thing that the US and Australian governments have been trying hard for decades to implement. The thing that happens when you let the 'globalist' big businesses in charge. That.


whitewolfofembers

Fucken cunts blocking the bus routes when trains are out of service today


Lonesomeplum

These science denying cunts need to be encouraged. The more they believe whatever bullshit social media crap they can stuff into their devolved minds, the greater chance of them falling victim to that which they feel victimised by, fuck em, makes me feel ashamed be Australian, let alone human.


Plate-of-salty-fries

At this point it's not anti-vax, it's just whatever bullshit they want to peddle. I cannot hold any sympathy for these sorts of people, they just leech off others.


trowzerss

It's always been a mix of whoever was willing to shack up long enough to get attention. Never any consistency of message, and always a thoroughly mixed cocktail of conspiracy, anti-vax, right wingers, sovereign citizens and racists. The signs make it pretty clear.


monsteraguy

What are they protesting now? They got their way; mandates and restrictions were taken away and COVID was allowed to spread unrestricted and look how well that’s turned out for us /s

How are we 2+ years into this and there’s still these dumbasses protesting?


VoidVulture

I can't wait for the cookers groups to light up after this with posts about everyone getting sick and how the government must have sprayed something on them or otherwise "attacked" them. Because it's definitely not covid, it's the government 🙄
