Over the weekend, the second anti-mass immigration March for Australia rallies took place across the country. And by and large, the protests went off without a hitch… except, of course, in the one place everyone knew there’d be trouble: the socially progressive, crime-ridden capital of Victoria, Melbourne.
To be fair to the March for Australia participants, they were very peaceful, even receiving praise from the police. Police Commander Wayne Cheeseman said, “I can tell you that the March for Australia group, they were peaceful, they were engaging, they listened to our instructions, they did what they were told, and they protested by example.”
However, the same could absolutely not be said about the counter-protesters, the so-called peaceful, compassionate, and inclusive Left. Apparently, their commitment to “inclusion” only extends as far as including police officers as targets.
The Police Commander had pretty much nothing nice to say about them. In fact, he came with some props: a pile of rocks that he dramatically dumped on the floor. He was clearly a man that was pissed off.
Holding a large rock, the Commander said: “This is what was thrown at police today, and I think Melbourne has had a gutful. I look on the social media of some of these issue-motivated groups that are saying police used excessive force. The fact was, these were being thrown at police, bottles filled with shards of glass, rotten fruit, bins were set on fire, flags were on fire, and I think enough is enough. People came to pick a fight with the police. The people that came to pick a fight with the police were the issue-motivated groups on the Left.”
Despite the police clearly and publicly blaming the Left, The Guardian effectively refused to report on that part. They instead focused on the Victorian Premier’s obsession with pretending Victoria is safe.
Their headline read: “Jacinta Allan blames ‘very small number’ of counter-protesters for violence at Melbourne immigration rally.” She insisted the city is safe, despite two police officers being hospitalised. A minor inconvenience for a world-class city, apparently.
What’s particularly revealing about the article is the language used. Although they had to quote the police saying the pro-Australian people were “peaceful, engaging and did what they were told,” they couldn’t bring themselves to use the Commander’s term for the violent group.
No, they never once referred to the rock-and-bottle throwers as “the Left” or the “far-Left.”
Instead, they were blandly labelled “counter-protesters.” It seems that when a specific political group burns Australian flags and engages in violence, certain media outlets are suddenly afflicted with a crippling case of selective amnesia.
Amazingly, when the Right are involved, their amnesia is suddenly cured, with headlines such as: “Far-right group rushes Indigenous Camp Sovereignty site after anti-immigration march,” “Australia’s far-right risk,” “far-right ideology.”
Oh yes. The far-right somehow exist in a vacuum where there is no such thing as the far-Left.
If you look at the counter-protesters’ page hosted on the Green Left website, “United Front Against Fascism,” which, interestingly, was also the name of a conference organised by the Black Panther Party in California in 1969.
Of course, Australia’s version only shows the Aboriginal flag and the Palestinian flag. Don’t expect the Australian flag, as they seemingly hate this country so much.
About the recent counter-protest, they wrote the following slogans: “No white Australia,” “Pro-Palestine / Anti-fascist,” “Refugees and migrants are welcome here,” and “Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.”
Don’t those last two counter one another? If it’s Aboriginal land, why are all migrants and refugees suddenly welcome? It’s kind of a question that answers itself, unless, of course, their ideology is purely a weapon to be pointed at the West, and not a serious, coherent political argument.
Our ABC seemed to be a bit fairer in their reporting in a piece titled, “Tensions erupt in Melbourne as immigration rallies held across Australia.” They actually quoted Commander Cheeseman, writing: “The people that came to pick a fight with police were the issue-motivated people on the Left.”
But, in classic ABC style, they immediately pivoted and interviewed a counter-protester who disagreed entirely with the police account. She said:
“There wasn’t any violence coming from the counter-protest and the actual pepper spraying and that sort of stuff came completely out of the blue from the police. I didn’t see anybody throwing anything and I was right up the front…”
Anyway, despite the far-Left protesters refusing to admit they were violent, and despite some of the media refusing to label them as the far-Left, Police Commander Cheeseman has clearly had enough of their BS and wants his streets to be free from obviously violent and deranged people.
