    From the article,

    Using real estate photos, the ABC has confirmed it was filmed in his backyard of a known address for Roberts in north-east Melbourne

    Ummm... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

      The ABC has been running investigations into far right groups in Australia for a while and it's really quite funny how terrible these people are at masking their identities online. They make it so easy for their activities to be tracked and traced back to their real identities.

    I sometimes wish exile was still a thing. It's only an idle thought and I know if it was it would be misused massively but god damned.

    My mum and her parents came here to rebuild away from all the pain caused by Nazis. Now they're on the rise again, it's such an odious and infectious ideology that I'm not sure we're culturally prepared to handle.

    Even just the presence of a handful poisons community, as you can see here where a couple of horrible people can inflame and terrorise a lot more.

      I don't like thinking of the individual people this way but personally I think Nazism like a virus. It's always dormant and attaches itself onto subcultures and fringe communities. It evolves and adapts to different contexts, always trying to exploit opportunities for division and hatred. And it thrives in democratic societies that tolerate different points of view - it exploits that. Essentially any complex, cosmopolitan society is always at risk of a nazi epidemic breaking out. Similar to viruses, you can never really erradicate them but you can try to immunise your society and prevent it from taking over your democratic systems.

    I'm really confused. What are these idiots trying to achieve?

    Presumably, they're in the "No" camp. So, why are they going after the most visible Aboriginal public person calling for a "No" vote?
