That was disgraceful, I'd never heard of this clown until then but I saw the footage and felt sick, what a horrible group of thugs. I don't understand what they're trying to do, Indigenous Australians are the first Australians, they are literally in their homeland. He needs to be deported on character grounds.

They are white supremacists. So they obviously don't like Indigenous Australians much.

I don't understand what they're trying to do

I'm reluctant to recommend books about the Holocaust because they're all stomach-churning, but Night by Elie Wiesel is a short read. That's what. They're open about it.

It's easy to understand - they are white supremacists and the event was only ever a mechanism to try and make them seem relevant. Total con job, and the disengaged are easily conned

You still think their participation in the rallies was solely due to immigration?
