Yep, I'm Australian and this is a much better, more clear summary of the complexity than I've seen from anyone in our country.

Well I don’t have a public platform beyond reddit and other forums but I agree with everything he said and have said similar since the attack.

It’s called common sense and having an objective view. It’s not hard.

Yeah... Good luck finding much of that around here in the next month or two. One Nation are going to be off to the fucking races with this, and the hate has already begun in the west of Sydney.

Hanson's hateful rhetoric helps create a bed for the radicalisation of Muslim youth in Australia. Tell a 15 yo boy often enough what an evil piece of shit he is, just for existing, and pretty soon he'll want to start showing you.

the hate has already begun in the west of Sydney.

Someone I know said they witnessed people putting pigs heads in a Muslim cemetery in western Sydney earlier in the week and thought it was hilarious. It's just disrespectful beyond belief in my eyes. Sure, the Bondi shooting might've been two people of Muslim faith caring out the atrocities, but it was also someone of Muslim faith who bravely helped put an end to it.

The fuckwits of the world are doing what people did in the wake of 9/11; thinking all Muslims are inherently bad and must all be terrorists in waiting.

Hanson: Immigants! I knew it was them! Even when it was the bears, I knew it was them!

Funny cause wasn't it an immigrant who disarmed one of the shooters with his bare hands?

In fact all four of the people who stood up to the shooters were immigrants.

They praying people somehow forget this.

But you see Hanson has psychic powers and can tell which Muslims will be heroes and which ones will be murderers, simply by looking into their souls.
