On today's @radioreversal.bsky.social we borrowed an interview recorded by Alice of the @3crmelbourne.bsky.social Thurs brekky crew with antifascist writer @tomtanuki.bsky.social on how the current wave of hate speech laws may feed into the accelerationism of the far right - links below!

Apply hate speech laws "equally" — send us all to jail While new hate speech laws are being enforced, it seems every other dangerous form of racism in this country is left unchecked.

Let's all go to jail for a year together. Just to be safe. Or 'equal'.

Yarn for @independentaus.bsky.social
about the application of these seven hundred new hate speech laws nobody I know asked for:

That's a really good point. I was reminded of 31/8/25 too when I was looking at the footage.

If you wanna know the results of Premier Chris Minns' authorising NSW Police to go hogwild on people protesting an alleged war criminal, @tomtanuki.bsky.social is essential viewing:

'SOCIAL COHESION'. TRASH ALL YOUR CIVIL LIBERTIES, INVITE THE KING OF INFANTIDICE OVER FOR A VICTORY LAP, AND BRUTALISE ANYONE WHO DARES OBJECT. DO WE FEEL COHERED?

I'LL ASSEMBLE SOME FOOTAGE IN THE COMING DAYS. IT HELPS TO DO SOMETHING USEFUL WITH THIS ANGER. I'M SHAKING WITH RAGE AT THE LITTLE I'VE SEEN FROM THESE PIGS IN SYDNEY TONIGHT.

PLEASE, DO SHARE ANY FOOTAGE YOU SEE WITH ME IF THAT'S YOUR IDEA OF USEFUL TOO.

Today I'm thinking about this great video from @tomtanuki.bsky.social and about how much work still must be done. Please share any resources you think are helpful for this topic.

‘A scary time’: Nazi terror links revealed as disbanding sparks fears of violence Experts say far-right extremists are more dangerous than ever, even as they officially split, and this masthead reveals the extent of their connection to terror cells around the world.

The National Socialist Network have been in close contact with at least 30 neo-Nazi extremist and terrorist groups overseas, including travelling to meet and train with them. They serve as a public face for the international neo-Nazi movement. www.theage.com.au/national/a-s...

The National Socialist Network is dead The far-right group is gone but the danger isn’t — Australia has just turned an organised hate group into hundreds of abandoned "lone" actors.

So the NSN is dead. Good riddance.

I wrote for @independentaus.bsky.social about the danger in abruptly creating hundreds of ASIO head Mike Burgess's 'lone actors' without having done a thing to support the families of ex-cultists through what comes next:

HOP OFF THE TIGER: A Look at the ‘Combatting Antisemitism Bill' [video]

Let's take a look at the omnibus 'Combatting Antisemitism, Hate & Extremism Bill 2026', which has NSN and all its associated groups disbanding by midnight on Sunday - for good reason.

Invasion Day is truly worth protecting As white nationalists try to “reclaim” Australia Day, Invasion Day remains the real counter-rally in the face of racism.

I spoke to @tarneen.bsky.social Dr Kaz Ross for their thoughts on why Invasion Day 2026, despite facing a two-pronged threat from the state and parasite nationalists hoping to counter it, is truly worth standing behind. Read in @independentaus.bsky.social:

THE CLOWN SHOW: GRIFTING, LIES & AI AFTER THE BONDI MASSACRE [video]

watch: youtu.be/3nF3j3bK35M

Everyone wants a piece of the Bondi massacre. Here I take a look at some of the factions vying to make the best use of the dead for their own ends, and how they've done it.

(or did I happen to miss that cheeky little movie set tucked away on Bondi Beach in the 70,000 other livestreams and videos available from the crowds there that evening?)

tell you what, you'd think for a terminally online society that spends roughly half its net spare time banging on and on to itself about AI ad nauseum, we'd be a bit better by now at spotting when AI is obviously being deployed

not much to say because I spent all my spare time today collating the bullshit I asked for this morning, not generating atomic takes for attention

however, i would like to say one thing now without waiting:

I'm taking submissions for all the most egregiously fucked disinfo, rabble rousing and rage-baiting bullshit you see around online atm.

There's a lot of it - there always is during these terrible moments, but it only seems to get worse over the years.

DM me, share with me, show me pls.

We can't be burned out in time for whatever comes next. Even if I am I can't be. I'd like to stfu and not leap into this grotesque pit of people sharing gore and private info and calls for mass deportations. But at the end of the day, I'll be there for what comes next in real life. We will be.

Trust me, this lot would literally hump those corpses on livestream if it helped their engagement and their political agendas.

The shittest Australians you can think of are touching themselves right now. They've got engagement brain. They're thinking about posts, snap rallies and their 'brand'. They're hoping they can get a Cronulla going and hurt a bunch of random innocents while the engagement is still fresh.

The bloke who wrestled that massive gun off one of the shooters is a hero. My god, the spine on him. I personally wish he'd shot him, but that's not deep, just a kneejerk wish. tbh I'm glad this hero won't have to suffer the consequences of something like that.

What a nightmare. Looking at these videos on shores you've walked down plenty of times. Thinking it could be people you know. For some of us it is. What a tragedy for so many.

Nazis’ chilling threats as government investigates homeschooling network A female MP has reported threats as Australia’s Nazis bristle at government probes into their secretive homeschooling networks.

'The newly freed leader of Australia’s largest neo-Nazi group has vowed violent revenge, and one of his chief lieutenants has threatened a state MP, as the Victorian government investigates concerns the group is running an illegal homeschooling network.'

Gosh I can't believe Google's AI overview isn't a complete history on the subject, is there some sort of tech baron I can complain to

Physical resistance, rocks and how to build a mass movement Antifascist combat training is about feeling safe, not tough.

Physical defence is about feeling safe, not tough.

I had a chat about that, big heavy rocks, tactics, and a Red Flag article on black bloc I took issue with. All in @independentaus.bsky.social - support them pls.

Police allowed Nazi rally outside NSW parliament More than 60 people attended Saturday morning’s rally after notifying police more than a week ago. The police commissioner said he had no idea it was going to happen.

NSW Police:

Anti-genocide 🍉 protest? 🙅‍♂️

Pro-genocide Nazi protest? 😀👍

YouTube video by Tom Tanuki March for Australia 2: smaller, whiter

A choice vid by @tomtanuki.bsky.social on the March for (White) Australia stoopid of OCT 19.

Both the (WN) M4WA & National Socialist Network have declared that they're gonna march/rally again on Invasion/Survival Day (January 26).

I reckon they'll have a bAd time.

What's unpopular with the public? Two things, I have determined:

- Big heavy rocks for cops, and
- the second March for Australia.

Let's take a look at it all.

What's the issue you were referring to at the end?
