The Death Of Australia. By Harry Richardson.
The nation I knew and loved just died yesterday. Actually, it didn’t die, it was murdered by treasonous politicians and lobby groups. ..
Tyranny rarely happened in Australia (nowhere is perfect) was because of legal and political principles developed in the mother country for centuries and continued here because the people believed in them.
The mulitculti brigade who wanted to replace the people with others from non-British/European backgrounds insisted that all we needed to do was to keep those ideals and principles.
It didn’t occur to them (or they didn’t let on) that different peoples would naturally have different ideals and principles.
They wouldn’t admit that we didn’t have magic dirt in Australia that foreigners could step onto and immediately be transformed into “Aussies” with the same beliefs and cultures as the locals.
The new legislation:
Yesterday, the Federal Parliament passed the Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism legislation.
Despite the title, the bill doesn’t adequately define antisemitism, hate or extremism. In other words, these will depend largely on the Government to decide what they are.
That doesn’t sound like a big deal but it should terrify you.
That’s because the Government now has the power to define these terms mostly as they like and prosecute people they don’t like with up to 15 years in jail.
A lefty revolution is underway:
The real poison in this bill, however, is that it smashes no less than four of the founding principles of British governance which have held sway here since its founding.
1. Free speech
This principle holds that any citizen is entitled to express any opinion without fear of punishment by the State. …
[Now] citizens are prevented from criticizing powerful groups or their members, who are protected by the Government. Of course, the Government doesn’t refer to these people as powerful groups, it refers to them as “protected groups,” implying that they are protected due to powerlessness and vulnerability.
In reality, the only groups protected are the ones who can “heavy” the Government through either ethnic block voting, campaign contributions, [or] control of media narratives. …
2. Freedom of Association
People should be free to associate, or not associate, with whomever they please. ..
Governments may restrict association only where necessary and proportionate, such as to prevent serious crime or terrorism.
[Now] you no longer have that right. The Government can lock you up for even associating with a group they don’t like. …
3. Rule of Law
Under British and Commonwealth tradition, laws are set out clearly and they are applied to EVERYONE equally by the courts. This is called fairness. Everyone is treated the same.
Politicians didn’t get to punish those with whom they disagree or dislike.
This bill hands sweeping power to the Government to prosecute those people or organisations that it does not like. Even worse, it blatantly removes fairness from the process. … They decide. No ifs, or buts. Total power to do what they want, depending on how they feel at that exact moment. …
4. Retroactive Application
When they passed laws mandating seat belts, they were not allowed to prosecute people who had previously travelled in cars without a seat belt.
Once again, this bill tramples all over that. In 114.A.4 the draft bill states that: “Conduct consti …tuting a hate crime may have occurred before commencement”
To be honest, I find it very difficult to be concerned about the fate of Australia, since it’s already a foregone conclusion that it’s going to be a Chinese colony by 2050 or so.
This is exactly the sort of thing that is inevitable when you disarm yourselves, turn your government over to women and foreigners …
So posture bravely all you like about “don’t mess with Texas” or “try that in a small town” or whatever, but no words, no ideology, and no bravado will ever prove an adequate substitute for simply keeping those who don’t share your heritage, your history, your religion, or your values out of your midst.
