The banning of nazi symbolism is a ruse and more to stop future protesting against governments for when ever obviously behaving like Nazis themselves , as the world moves more to the NWO . enabled with WEF ,WHO, IMF, UN .grubs. If those neo Nazis types with face covered wore a "full burka" , then no problems , INNIT .
No lobby groups, there are 1500 yellow 'badged' lobbyists that frequent Canbugga. Melbournes wealthy 'chosen community' I am sure would be most represented.
it's because they're predicting the response to their plan of unrelenting immigration and want to stop it before it starts. you think immigration and crime is bad now? just you wait.
It's a policy auction... Anything to get a few hundred more votes to stay in/get 'power'. Those modern day hammer and sickle folks up north are dominating the world now and it's not just economics or the military alone ...
And the sick irony of it all, is that the country that is banning the symbolism of that ideology, was one of the reasons that they fought against that ideology was to protect against the exact same thing. And that is banning certain imagery, other types of censorship, and restriction of freedoms. Absolutely disgusting. 😡
If you still think the allies fought the 3rd Reich over moral principles, you should read outside of the victor approved literature. Why did the allies escalate what would have been a German-Polish war into a World War, just to give half of Europe to Stalin? Why did the British Empire start bombing German women and children while rejecting over 20 German appeals for peace at the start of the war, and why did Germany endure her civilians being carpet bombed for 3 months before retaliating? Because moral principles had nothing to do with the allies' motives.

Atrocities were carried out by every side. Yes the invasion of Poland can accurately be described as a catalyst. More accurately the fulcrum that European, primarily British interests leveraged in an attempt to stifle a superior industrial competitor. The british pioneered concentration camps in Africa against the Boer (mostly) women and children. It proved effective. The US eugenics movement was inspirational for complex superior type thinker. Fire bombing civilians. Rationing of resource. On and on thlists could go. There were no good guys. We have all been lied too and deliberately misled. It was a war for industrial, market, currency dominance. Lest we forget. It was NEVER our freedom that was fought for. It was profit for the few. Paid for with the blood of the many. The memorabilia represents how easily the very worst of humantiy can become popular culture. There is nothing glorious about industrialised slaughter. It only stopped with the threat of mutually assured destruction. FYI, the allies burned far more books than the nazis. The famous book burnings being organised by overzealous/misguided students who invited the head of pr to attend. We must remember that if we aren't vigilant we can find ourselves goose stepping.

I'm from Germany, Eastern Germany to be exact, you have no idea how much struggle my grandfather has to be able to keep his old uniform. I consider it to be a family heilbronn. He was a military engineer and a physicist. I still have it, complete with his awards and caps. He had a few. In no way would I sell it, or part of it. It's a symbol of the struggle of my family, and no one will make me get rid of it.
Just to have survived East Germany is a feat in itself. Most people these days are not familiar with the terrible conditions that people of the DDR had to endure under the soviets…
They are called beetles because the original ones were black.unfortunately a lot of people still associate them with Adolf Hitler .pure nonsense as the design was by Ferdinand porche.
Does this law include vehicles? How does this effect the Australian Armour & Artillery Museum. They have to close their doors? This seems rediculous, no brains went into this decision, as usual, we are governed by awful people. Dreadful people.
Excellent point. Exemptions to the rule are the privilege of the entitled ones who dutifully accept them. I would expect the War Memorial to be one of them.
Cairns is a private museum. They could only get an exemption if it was a charity. Sad as most German parts have Waffenamt stamps. Illegal to buy or sell.
bingo! The australian govt wants all of the "authority" and control with out any real world responsibility or accountability for real every day issues :/

This is madness just plain bloody stupidity. What about the Nazi symbol's on display for example WWII German aircraft in the Australian War Memorial (AWM). Medals and uniforms for example will with swatstika on them. Are they going to spray paint over them or something ? The ME 109, ME 262 in the AWM currently. What about if I build a model aircraft kit of a German aircraft and display it at a scale model exhibition which happens around the country every year. Does that mean I can go to jail for building a representation of a German aircraft as it looked like. A hobby has become illegal, due to one having an interest in WWII history. What about a book or poster or movies showing swatstikas. Complete madness and stupidity, this is crazy. Wake up Australian politicians.
Revell Germany stopped supplying tail swastika decals in their aircraft model kits in the 1970s to comply with German law re display of Nazi symbols, etc. Same with their box art - no more swastikas on illustrations of WW2 Luftwaffe aircraft. Not sure if it later became EU law as well but many other model kit makers based in Europe seem to have followed suit so as to be able to access the German market. Think Heller, the French model kit maker, went down the same path too in the end. But, y'know, the Italian fasces symbol used on Italian WW2 aircraft - no problem; Soviet Red Stars and other communist symbols on kits of MiG, Polikarpov and Illushyin aircraft? again, no problem. The Japanese hinomaru symbol used on the aircraft of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army air forces and the 'rising sun' war flag flown by both military services in WWII? Again, no problem - could get very tricky if it was to become a problem as both symbols are still used by the modern Japanese Self Defence Forces today. It makes no sense. Thankfully Tamiya, Hasegawa and now all the South Korean and Chinese companies like Dragon, Hobbycraft, Trumpeter, etc never saw the swastika as a problem. The AWM shop sells model kits of most the 'big toys' in their collection - guess they'll only be stocking Revell Germany kits of the Bf-109 now despite being able to see a genuine swastika on the tail of the real aircraft just down the hall...
So what’s next on the target list for the little minions in the government thought police ? Will it be Japanese militaria ? The Imperial Japanese Army were responsible for many horrific atrocities in the Second World War, will they be banning the Japanese Hinomaru, the Japanese flag of Japan during world war 2

Gradually we are losing all of our freedoms. So now, war trophies brought back by the second AIF blokes are potentially illegal! What a joke! Aussie children who played with stuff brought back from the war understood that we beat them. Good overcame evil. What disrespect to our Anzac forbears who risked all and captured this gear. All that is needed nowadays is some educative input. Australia is fast becoming unworthy of my Anzac forebears sacrifices with the way it is going. Aussies need to wake up and take a close look at what is happening and why it is happening and do something in the ballot box.
We need to arm up that’s all, look what the police did to us already in Melbourne, they shot at us with bean bags and rubber bullets for peacefully protesting lockdowns.

@jakehahn7237 Here’s a story. I went to buy some car Parts from a guy once. I saw a box of car badges and started sifting through it. Upside down, At the bottom of the box were 2 badges that you pin on your shirt and wear. The first one I decided to flip over was a luftwaffe pilots observers badge. Gotta admit I was a bit taken back by it. The little round badge beside it was blue and had written on it “students oppose racism” I shit you not! After a second or 2 I recognised the contradiction and pissed myself laughing. The guy ended up giving them to me and I still have them to this day. When I got home that day I sat down and stared and stared at that nazi badge and couldn’t help but question wether or not the guy who first got that badge and pinned it on his chest wore it with pride,,,,, or wether or not he was dead set against what it symbolised and simply HAD to wear it and go along with it through fear of death???? Kinda sounds like what’s happening in our modern society! Go along with all the woke programming or you will be branded a racist, sexist, misogynist, homophobe, trans phobe, Islam’s phobe and what any other “ist” or “phobe” that the piss weak left wing wankers feel like using to brand you so they can silence you by cancel culturing you into obscurity so that their dangerous and piss weak poisonous narratives can go unchallenged!

My automotive workshop is planning a Victoria Police tribute VE commodore but we were going to change the side markings to "Victoria Gestapo " and we were going to change the insignia and put a "swastika " in the centre and put a steel dog cage in the back. Instead of Emergency 000 we are putting Emergency 666. Do we build it?
If cops hassle you, perhaps stick to the line 'This is for educational purposes!

I'm glad i stumbled on this video. Thanks for the heads up. I did hear something about a ban but had no clue it was in effect. And Thank you Malcolm Roberts..
I tried talking to my Liberal Federal member and Liberal State member and they refused to talk to me about it. They think that they're going to be identified in the media as being pro-Nazi and are terrified of it.
Yes, I covered every member of the House of Reps in June, got a handful of replies. Then that turkey auctioneer on the gold coast told everyone he had a bunch of clients who were politicians who bought nazi gear from him and then everyone ran for the hills. You can thank him for upending any chance we ever had in getting this legislation pulled or at least amended. I emailed every senator in November and did not get one reply, other than from Malcolm Roberts. Big thank you to him at least. Someone will unfortunately be tested on these pathetic laws, some poor second hand seller, who will be pulled up by the police and charged as a terrorist, fined $20 and told to be not so naughty next time. Utterly pointless........but then again, I can imagine the Attorney General could possibly believe that a wound badge might cause massive harm and offence to the general public. End of rant.
What happens when our flag becomes an "offensive symbol" this shit has to stop. At what point do we the people of australia need to stand up against this tyranical regime
I think you'd have to ask the people who sponsored this law and ask them which specific group of individuals funded their party to do this. Just follow the money and I think you will find your answer.
You can still sell memorabilia from Vichy France, Fascist Italy, The Croatian Ustashe not to mention the Soviet Union, East Germany and the rest of the Warsaw Pact and the People's Liberation Army and depending on who you ask the Israeli Defence Force. It doesn't just affect militaria collectors it also affects numismatists and philatelists (coin and bank note collectors and stamp collectors). I am wondering if this will make Third Reich memorabilia more valuable on the black market in the same way that the bans on the Kruger Rand did during Apartheid?
Great video, and yes just found out about this from this video. Already trying to spread the word, and many agree this is the dumbest waste of time and money for nothing but feelings by the goverment
I walked into JB Hifi today and there in the movie section was Das Boat, Iron Cross, All Quiet on the Western Front etc and the usual selection of old war movies. Every one of them had a German Swastika or other military emblems on the covers. I informed the staff that they were breaking the law by selling them or any other material including computer games that including ANY reference to the German military. The manager looked genuinely shocked, and so he should be!
This has every likelihood of backfiring and making such ideology more popular than ever among people susceptible to falling for it. Far better to just acknowledge that it happened and deal with it.
Any study of religion has shown that with persecution, the persecuted examine if what they are being persecuted for is worth while fighting for and almost always results in that person hanging on to their belief even stronger and more tenaciously. Persecution never works but instead creates resentment and related emotions.
A Hypothetical question. If you are in a Public library and you have a book on Nazi Germany you just took off the library shelf , if you leave it on a desk with a picture of a Swastika clearly visible to the public are you in breach of the new Nazi Regulations ? Can you actually be held responsible for doing this with 12 months jail and a $20,000 fine ??
No. There are specific exemptions for education, literature and exhibitions where it is done in good faith for educational or historical purposes. The Hollocaust museum in Melbourn has a huge collection of 3rd Reich items and they can display them without issue. Same goes if you were writing history book, you can include photos and such without issues. If you were to write an ideological book promoting national socialism, then you would be in breach. These really are stupid laws. Banning the public display of NAZI imagery for poltical or ideological reasons would have gone far enough. It would be in line with many European nations.
Well said! Thank you for answering questions that the politicians would not answer. Thank you for making it clear as to what is legal & illegal to do with German WW2 memorabilia, even though most of the politicians who I emailed could not answer the simple questions that you addressed in this video.
For certainty, I suggest getting legal advice first. I just checked Customs (Prohibited Imports) Regulations (Fed) latest edition, swastikas are not listed as a prohibited import so on the face of it, we are free to import equipment displaying the swastika. Also, there are exemptions, such as for educational purposes, religious purposes etc.
How dose this affect small Museums (Not Gov owned) with war displays as I can find no concessions for museums? Need to know as a small museum that I volunteer at has a section of WW2 memorabilia and some antique cars have said symbol that was representative of certain auto clubs, where do we stand?!
If you're in that position you'd probably need to retain legal counsel rather than ask the brainstrust on youtube. But as oldmate in the video says, no one knows for sure where these laws start and stop until people are successfully (and unsuccessfully) charged.
My local hobby store sells Airfix, Revel and Tamaya scale model kits of German WW2 aircraft such as Stukas and BF109s. Most of these kits contain decals so that modellers can make the plane look authentic. Will it now be illegal to posses, sell, swap or display such a model airplanes in Australia?

When I worked in Germany some 15 years ago I bought a few old postage stamps from the Nazi period depicting Hitler (ooh I shouldn't mention that name, naughty me). As an avid history buff and collector of coins, stamps, war medals etc I just thought they were interesting items, I did not buy them for any future financial gain. As an Aussie, I cannot believe how much of a nanny state we have become. By owning these items does it mean I support or sympathise with Nazi Germany, of course not! If I trade these items does it mean I am corrupting or influencing somebody to believe in the Nazi ideology, I think not. Our government has become so "woke" that they are blocking free speech and free expression, ironically no better than the Nazis themselves. I would love to know the name of the minister who first proposed this bill to parliament so as I can send them a letter expressing my disgust!
It's all about having a versatile set of tools to quickly remove squeaky wheels. Every State considers it's own citizens it's biggest threat. That be you, me, us, we.
You will never find the name of the minister that proposed these new laws it will be protected under "the Freedom of information act ".. funny stuff hey..
In 1976 I was 15, in high school. I had 30,000 laws telling me what I can and can't do. In 2018 that number had risen to 60,000 - or, to put it another way, I'm less than half as free as I was when I was a boy.. Bear in mind they add 700 - 1,000 new laws a year. Something to think about. Big Brother is watching you - even your phone knows where you are and what you do.
It's called 'Freedom'. Yes we need laws and regulations, but there's a point they become a self serving industries. In extreme cases designed to undermine small the medium sized businesses. A case in point is being challenged by the farmers in Europe at the moment.
What gets me is how laws are arrived at. MPs used to be mostly lawyers who were comparatively wary of lumbering us with extra rules, but today a donkey can get itself elected and instead of formulating all the other 16,000 paragraphs that go with the edict "if you rent a spare bedroom to..." they get some powerful public servant to write them and then they rubber stamp it because they personally will never be effected by it. Try building a stock dam the size of a modern day house block on your own farm. Guess what they call the stuff that falls out of big black storm clouds and fills your illegal new dam? Yes, you guessed it. Government property. After they do you for the dam they'll get you on theft for stealing what all the rest of us call "rain." You used to have sovereignty over the air space over your own property all the way to heaven. Not anymore.
Im really sorry you guys have to deal with this censorship crap, this helps nobody and hurts reputable businesses like you. Sending support from the U.S.🇺🇸🤝🇦🇺
It's a pathetic and childish law. What is going on with this country. I can't believe that we have come to the point that just because a few people don't like something we ban it.
haha Australia is a joke. I'm first gen Australian, both my parents came to Australia from Germany after WW2, all my relatives fought for Germany, none were Nazi's. I got into collecting German WW2 memorabilia after I was called a Nazi at my school which I didn't have a clue what it was. Then asked my parents, then got into collecting in my 20's. I have a ton of stuff from when I collected seriously from about 10 to 15 years ago, I haven't bought anything for a long time now, but have kept all my stuff in boxes. From soldiers letters, photos, stamps, currency, medal, patches, death cards etc. Its all a part of history. Why ban one part of history and not others, religions done worse to humanty,haha. Is the hammer and sickle symbol banned? I mean the Swastika isn't even soley a national socilaist symbol, the Finnish used it, pilots used it on planes in WW1 and the Hindus been using it for ages before. The country is soft, we cant even be proud of the Australian flag anymore. On the plus side, you can always post your unwanted memorabilia to people you don't like and get them arrested for it 😂
The only difference was the Nazi Swastika was rotated by 45 degrees but few seem to grasp that difference and yes the Swastika was once a good fortune and health symbol and used by many more than just the Hindi. These morons show just how gutless and ill informed they really are one could ever hold down a real job for long before they were sacked for incompetence
Yep same here, I too was called a Nazi at my school and like you I had no idea what a Nazi was and later on I came to the realisation that neither did the kids that did the name calling. It was just the bullshit they were fed by their parents.
Was in Germany in 1998 with my then German GF, Though I am not a collector of Nazi stuff, she did tell me that anything with swastikas will never be found for sale or on public display. First weekend market we went to, found a WW2 gas mask and canister with the usual acceptance marks (AMT) with eagle and swastika. And a nazi dagger with the swastika very clearly displayed on the cross piece. Both on open display on the table. And this is in a country where the police have a duty to confiscate anything bearing the swastika, they can break a shop window legally to carry out such consfications and the shop keeper has no legal standing to sue the copper for damages.
So I recently bought a copy of Wolfenstein 3D on Gameboy Advance, the game has swastikas all through it. I bought it, someone sold it to me, it was posted to me. And now you tell me they'd throw me in jail for a year over that? What about the military history books I've got?
@@userI3I2I mean going by the spirit of the law, he’s not wrong to draw a point like that. The books and games display swastikas; a banned image. They already banned other things arbitrarily, why would they not pursue that?
@@userI3I2 If regulations over there are enforced in the way they are many times in the US, they are very much not always black and white. I’m quite used to seeing laws taken under interpretation. My point here is not to argue with you, just note that when laws like this are passed it usually is meant to be used however the powers that be see fit; whether it makes sense or not, unfortunately. Don’t get it twisted that I support Nazism; I don’t. The concept is idiotic to say the least. However banning imagery in the way they are doing is not the correct way to go about dealing with them, it only breeds more distrust and draws more to that group.
Would displaying an image of General Berkhalter from Hogans Heros whilst he is wearing a Swastika arm band be considered illegal? is it still illegal if channel nine does it?

It truly is dystopian that symbols and imagery can be taken off adults, I love what this country has given me but I'm beginning to hate where it is going
Don't get me started on the 2 metre exclusion zones and non-climbable zone sub-clauses of the NSW pool safety rules, which assumes that after a 4 year old child has scaled a sheer 1.8 metal colourbond metre fence using the Spiderman suction caps it got for its birthday, it proceeds to vault over the top, leap onto a foothold with 2 metres of the exclusion zone in order to gain access to the pool where it intends to drown itself. I doubt it has ever saved a single child's life, but it's certainly cost anyone who owns a pool many thousands of dollars.
Its funny, there used to be a Wine Bar in Canberra called "KGB", that had on its facade the Sword, Shield, Hammer and Sickle insignia of the Soviet secret police, who ran the concentration camps and persecution of dissidents and oppression of subject populations. When some elderly East Europeans issued a public complaint about the insensitivity of the name and imagery, there was a pile on from media and individuals calling them everything from "wowsers" to "idiots" to "fascists"...."KGB" eventually closed through lack of patronage (ie: they weren't making money) but its funny (ha-ha) that some atrocious organisations and their atrocities don't seem as evil as other atrocious organisations and their atrocities...
Yes, well I guess you just have to thank the same guy who continues to call out everything he thinks is Nazi in this country, whether it is or not and gets as much media space as he wants. Ask yourself why he can outrage the country with such puerile non events, yet when collectors try to voice their legitimate concerns, the politicians and media run for the hills. Just shows you the malicious power this guy and others wield through fear, threats and undermining democracy in Australia and in many other countries.
I agree. There are people who look for things to get upset about and look for comfort from others to support them in their fake outrage. Attention seekers! weren't loved as children. Yep wowsers is what they were called in Australia several decades ago, back then, often religious nutters who acted like they were holier than thou!
KGB security in Brisbane. They have the full on Hammer and Sickle emblem everywhere on it's webpage and work vehicles.. Why is that ok? It's true the Victor's right the history and even though Australia fought against N.a.z.i Germany we are treated like trash by (((them)))
We’ve had these artefacts all these years and now they’re upset about it? Why not in 1947 or 1955, the 60s, the 70s etc? Why now? It’s like they just need to find something to get upset about.
History should never be deleted. How can civilisations look back and know what not to do when knowledge has been removed from history? Memorabilia is pieces of history that remind us of mistakes and triumph's of the past. With this we are lost and bound to make the same mistakes as the past.
Does this mean that the Australian Government are going to ban the British Government as Essex County Hall, in Chelmsford, has lots of Swaztikas all over it or will they be making special exceptions.
In that case it's most likely an unlawful law. Similar has come up regarding water rights and native vegetation protection laws covering private property. Both have been taken to the federal and high court but through sophistry and obvious sidestepping the courts have refused to officially acknowledge the constitutional contraventions.

If you still think the allies fought the 3rd Reich over moral principles, you should read outside of the victor approved literature. Why did the allies escalate what would have been a German-Polish war into a World War, just to give half of Europe to Stalin? Why did the British Empire start bombing German women and children while rejecting over 20 German appeals for peace at the start of the war, and why did Germany endure her civilians being carpet bombed for 3 months before retaliating? Because moral principles had nothing to do with the allies' motives.

So every encyclopaedia in Australia is now illegal to borrow . Is the government about to be charged .
So is Schindlers Ark to be redacted? The movie banned?
Historical artefacts that help tell the story of the atrocities carried out by the Nazis , kids today think a Nazi is anyone who disagrees with them .
That is why they did it…
Kids today understand that far-right ideology is just as destructive as it has ever been. Cry about it.
Atrocities were carried out by every side. Yes the invasion of Poland can accurately be described as a catalyst. More accurately the fulcrum that European, primarily British interests leveraged in an attempt to stifle a superior industrial competitor. The british pioneered concentration camps in Africa against the Boer (mostly) women and children. It proved effective. The US eugenics movement was inspirational for complex superior type thinker. Fire bombing civilians. Rationing of resource. On and on thlists could go. There were no good guys. We have all been lied too and deliberately misled. It was a war for industrial, market, currency dominance.
Lest we forget.
It was NEVER our freedom that was fought for. It was profit for the few. Paid for with the blood of the many.
The memorabilia represents how easily the very worst of humantiy can become popular culture.
There is nothing glorious about industrialised slaughter. It only stopped with the threat of mutually assured destruction.
FYI, the allies burned far more books than the nazis. The famous book burnings being organised by overzealous/misguided students who invited the head of pr to attend.

"There is no longer any political question at issue here. This thing cannot be judged or estimated by political rules or principles. It is iniquity under a political mask.

It must be met with the same ruthless and even brutal means with which it strives to usurp power or hold power in its hands. Here there can be no bargaining; because the danger that threatens Europe is acute. Overnight it might break in among the civilised nations of the world and spread universal catastrophe.

This is madness just plain bloody stupidity. What about the Nazi symbol's on display for example WWII German aircraft in the Australian War Memorial (AWM). Medals and uniforms for example will with swatstika on them. Are they going to spray paint over them or something ? The ME 109, ME 262 in the AWM currently. What about if I build a model aircraft kit of a German aircraft and display it at a scale model exhibition which happens around the country every year. Does that mean I can go to jail for building a representation of a German aircraft as it looked like. A hobby has become illegal, due to one having an interest in WWII history. What about a book or poster or movies showing swatstikas. Complete madness and stupidity, this is crazy. Wake up Australian politicians.
Revell Germany stopped supplying tail swastika decals in their aircraft model kits in the 1970s to comply with German law re display of Nazi symbols, etc. Same with their box art - no more swastikas on illustrations of WW2 Luftwaffe aircraft. Not sure if it later became EU law as well but many other model kit makers based in Europe seem to have followed suit so as to be able to access the German market. Think Heller, the French model kit maker, went down the same path too in the end. But, y'know, the Italian fasces symbol used on Italian WW2 aircraft - no problem; Soviet Red Stars and other communist symbols on kits of MiG, Polikarpov and Illushyin aircraft? again, no problem. The Japanese hinomaru symbol used on the aircraft of the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army air forces and the 'rising sun' war flag flown by both military services in WWII? Again, no problem - could get very tricky if it was to become a problem as both symbols are still used by the modern Japanese Self Defence Forces today. It makes no sense. Thankfully Tamiya, Hasegawa and now all the South Korean and Chinese companies like Dragon, Hobbycraft, Trumpeter, etc never saw the swastika as a problem. The AWM shop sells model kits of most the 'big toys' in their collection - guess they'll only be stocking Revell Germany kits of the Bf-109 now despite being able to see a genuine swastika on the tail of the real aircraft just down the hall...
the politicians are only obeying orders from the people powerful enough to force this thru...now connect that fact with what ur count tree has become

Here’s a story.
I went to buy some car Parts from a guy once. I saw a box of car badges and started sifting through it. Upside down, At the bottom of the box were 2 badges that you pin on your shirt and wear. The first one I decided to flip over was a luftwaffe pilots observers badge. Gotta admit I was a bit taken back by it. The little round badge beside it was blue and had written on it “students oppose racism”
I shit you not!
After a second or 2 I recognised the contradiction and pissed myself laughing. The guy ended up giving them to me and I still have them to this day.
When I got home that day I sat down and stared and stared at that nazi badge and couldn’t help but question wether or not the guy who first got that badge and pinned it on his chest wore it with pride,,,,, or wether or not he was dead set against what it symbolised and simply HAD to wear it and go along with it through fear of death????

A Hypothetical question. If you are in a Public library and you have a book on Nazi Germany you just took off the library shelf , if you leave it on a desk with a picture of a Swastika clearly visible to the public are you in breach of the new Nazi Regulations ? Can you actually be held responsible for doing this with 12 months jail and a $20,000 fine ??
I don't think they thought that far.
No. There are specific exemptions for education, literature and exhibitions where it is done in good faith for educational or historical purposes. The Hollocaust museum in Melbourn has a huge collection of 3rd Reich items and they can display them without issue. Same goes if you were writing history book, you can include photos and such without issues. If you were to write an ideological book promoting national socialism, then you would be in breach.
These really are stupid laws. Banning the public display of NAZI imagery for poltical or ideological reasons would have gone far enough. It would be in line with many European nations.
Time to close all libraries then.
Well said! Thank you for answering questions that the politicians would not answer. Thank you for making it clear as to what is legal & illegal to do with German WW2 memorabilia, even though most of the politicians who I emailed could not answer the simple questions that you addressed in this video.
For certainty, I suggest getting legal advice first. I just checked Customs (Prohibited Imports) Regulations (Fed) latest edition, swastikas are not listed as a prohibited import so on the face of it, we are free to import equipment displaying the swastika. Also, there are exemptions, such as for educational purposes, religious purposes etc.

If you're in that position you'd probably need to retain legal counsel rather than ask the brainstrust on youtube. But as oldmate in the video says, no one knows for sure where these laws start and stop until people are successfully (and unsuccessfully) charged.

@@WillyEckaslike i didn't say it was bad, I honestly like it, but that's part of the reason he wasn't accepted, everyone was doing art like that, nothing about his work stood out, and some areas had to be refined to a higher standard
When I worked in Germany some 15 years ago I bought a few old postage stamps from the Nazi period depicting Hitler (ooh I shouldn't mention that name, naughty me). As an avid history buff and collector of coins, stamps, war medals etc I just thought they were interesting items, I did not buy them for any future financial gain. As an Aussie, I cannot believe how much of a nanny state we have become. By owning these items does it mean I support or sympathise with Nazi Germany, of course not! If I trade these items does it mean I am corrupting or influencing somebody to believe in the Nazi ideology, I think not. Our government has become so "woke" that they are blocking free speech and free expression, ironically no better than the Nazis themselves. I would love to know the name of the minister who first proposed this bill to parliament so as I can send them a letter expressing my disgust!
I had almost forgot my Aunties old stamp book full of them from WWII Germany, Oh my God I had better hide it from the State police!
Nazis never banned stamps.
It's all about having a versatile set of tools to quickly remove squeaky wheels. Every State considers it's own citizens it's biggest threat. That be you, me, us, we.
influencing somebody.......................................bingo ..thats what they are worried about
You will never find the name of the minister that proposed these new laws it will be protected under "the Freedom of information act ".. funny stuff hey..
In 1976 I was 15, in high school. I had 30,000 laws telling me what I can and can't do. In 2018 that number had risen to 60,000 - or, to put it another way, I'm less than half as free as I was when I was a boy.. Bear in mind they add 700 - 1,000 new laws a year. Something to think about. Big Brother is watching you - even your phone knows where you are and what you do.
It's called 'Freedom'. Yes we need laws and regulations, but there's a point they become a self serving industries. In extreme cases designed to undermine small the medium sized businesses. A case in point is being challenged by the farmers in Europe at the moment.
They are turning us into a turn key police state. They have been setting it up for decades. Most Australians are too dumb to notice.
What gets me is how laws are arrived at. MPs used to be mostly lawyers who were comparatively wary of lumbering us with extra rules, but today a donkey can get itself elected and instead of formulating all the other 16,000 paragraphs that go with the edict "if you rent a spare bedroom to..." they get some powerful public servant to write them and then they rubber stamp it because they personally will never be effected by it. Try building a stock dam the size of a modern day house block on your own farm. Guess what they call the stuff that falls out of big black storm clouds and fills your illegal new dam? Yes, you guessed it. Government property. After they do you for the dam they'll get you on theft for stealing what all the rest of us call "rain." You used to have sovereignty over the air space over your own property all the way to heaven. Not anymore.
Im really sorry you guys have to deal with this censorship crap, this helps nobody and hurts reputable businesses like you. Sending support from the U.S.🇺🇸🤝🇦🇺
It's a pathetic and childish law. What is going on with this country. I can't believe that we have come to the point that just because a few people don't like something we ban it.
haha Australia is a joke. I'm first gen Australian, both my parents came to Australia from Germany after WW2, all my relatives fought for Germany, none were Nazi's. I got into collecting German WW2 memorabilia after I was called a Nazi at my school which I didn't have a clue what it was. Then asked my parents, then got into collecting in my 20's. I have a ton of stuff from when I collected seriously from about 10 to 15 years ago, I haven't bought anything for a long time now, but have kept all my stuff in boxes. From soldiers letters, photos, stamps, currency, medal, patches, death cards etc. Its all a part of history. Why ban one part of history and not others, religions done worse to humanty,haha. Is the hammer and sickle symbol banned? I mean the Swastika isn't even soley a national socilaist symbol, the Finnish used it, pilots used it on planes in WW1 and the Hindus been using it for ages before. The country is soft, we cant even be proud of the Australian flag anymore. On the plus side, you can always post your unwanted memorabilia to people you don't like and get them arrested for it 😂
😅
The only difference was the Nazi Swastika was rotated by 45 degrees but few seem to grasp that difference and yes the Swastika was once a good fortune and health symbol and used by many more than just the Hindi.
These morons show just how gutless and ill informed they really are one could ever hold down a real job for long before they were sacked for incompetence
Yep same here, I too was called a Nazi at my school and like you I had no idea what a Nazi was and later on I came to the realisation that neither did the kids that did the name calling. It was just the bullshit they were fed by their parents.
Was in Germany in 1998 with my then German GF, Though I am not a collector of Nazi stuff, she did tell me that anything with swastikas will never be found for sale or on public display. First weekend market we went to, found a WW2 gas mask and canister with the usual acceptance marks (AMT) with eagle and swastika. And a nazi dagger with the swastika very clearly displayed on the cross piece. Both on open display on the table. And this is in a country where the police have a duty to confiscate anything bearing the swastika, they can break a shop window legally to carry out such consfications and the shop keeper has no legal standing to sue the copper for damages.
The ban is specifically the Hakenkreuz, not the swastika used by other religions.
So I recently bought a copy of Wolfenstein 3D on Gameboy Advance, the game has swastikas all through it.
I bought it, someone sold it to me, it was posted to me.
And now you tell me they'd throw me in jail for a year over that?
What about the military history books I've got?
Yeah, you're going to jail for a game boy game.
Calm down.
@@userI3I2I mean going by the spirit of the law, he’s not wrong to draw a point like that. The books and games display swastikas; a banned image. They already banned other things arbitrarily, why would they not pursue that?
@@GetTheFO law is enforced by very specific criteria, not 'spirit'.
@@userI3I2 If regulations over there are enforced in the way they are many times in the US, they are very much not always black and white. I’m quite used to seeing laws taken under interpretation. My point here is not to argue with you, just note that when laws like this are passed it usually is meant to be used however the powers that be see fit; whether it makes sense or not, unfortunately. Don’t get it twisted that I support Nazism; I don’t. The concept is idiotic to say the least. However banning imagery in the way they are doing is not the correct way to go about dealing with them, it only breeds more distrust and draws more to that group.
Rest in peace Australia. You will be missed, you had a lot of good qualities but many of them are but a memory.
It started with the guns. Don’t ever forget that.
What happens with the museums?
Would displaying an image of General Berkhalter from Hogans Heros whilst he is wearing a Swastika arm band be considered illegal? is it still illegal if channel nine does it?
Harsh. What about model Luftwaffe aircraft??? Actually any German models like detailed resin SS soldiers with banned signs?
I was thinking the same, will be interesting to see if there are Luftwaffe models at Expo this year in Melbourne without swastikas.
What about historical war-gamers? no more SS forces
having that in mind it must be heartbreaking as a collector travelling to Europe and not be able to bring anything back home
Just don't tell anyone
@@chrispekel5709 what about when airport security scans your bag and sees the "illegal" items?
@@B1-997 Well, that's the risk you take. They're not going to be able to see small inscriptions or designs on the scanner, but they might if they search your bag. It truly is dystopian that symbols and imagery can be taken off adults, I love what this country has given me but I'm beginning to hate where it is going
What are you prepared to do about it?
How does this affect the Australian Armour and Artillery Museum's acquisitions programme?
There is no law that Australians don’t love. It is a prison full of juveniles who think they’re lucky.
The pathetic Nanny state never fails to disappoint !!
I hate to admit it but it's probably true
People use the term nanny state, but what is the difference between that and totalitarianism?
Don't get me started on the 2 metre exclusion zones and non-climbable zone sub-clauses of the NSW pool safety rules, which assumes that after a 4 year old child has scaled a sheer 1.8 metal colourbond metre fence using the Spiderman suction caps it got for its birthday, it proceeds to vault over the top, leap onto a foothold with 2 metres of the exclusion zone in order to gain access to the pool where it intends to drown itself.
I doubt it has ever saved a single child's life, but it's certainly cost anyone who owns a pool many thousands of dollars.
What the fuck are you talking about- there is no law that Australians don’t love? What does that mean?
Isn't it great to be governed by the gay Mafia of the labor party ?
Or an unelected powerful minority more interested in Israel than Australia.
don't kid yourself by thinking the Zionist Liberals would do anything different with their jewish treasurer
People are such cry babies these days! im fed up with their complaining
If your livelihood was threatened by some dumbass ill conceived draconian law you might be a cry baby ,too.
Yet whistle blowers on corruption get jailed.
I'm fed up with your complaining.
your probably one of the people who gets offended easily@@userI3I2
Wait till the labour GOONS do something that affects you, are you on the dole or gay?
Shouldn’t have given up your guns. Now you’re at the mercy of the government.
Can't find any Stats but articles say neo nazi membership is very small in Australia but has increased 50% in the last 5 years. Very vague
All neo nazi groups in Australia are ausfed honeypots.
@@stevencooper3202except yours, of course
Include all history books displaying the Swastika on the cover ?
Everything. Meanwhile those descendants of the holocaust are committing genocide as we speak, go figure ?
Can you buy from overseas?
They literally made it more strict than Germany on this shit
No importation or export of banned goods are allowed under the law.
The Germans banned it for a good reason, but like you said there was some flexibility in the ban for historical items, not just a dumb blanket ban
@@jaybe2908 The Germans banned it because they were defeated by the Jews.
Its funny, there used to be a Wine Bar in Canberra called "KGB", that had on its facade the Sword, Shield, Hammer and Sickle insignia of the Soviet secret police, who ran the concentration camps and persecution of dissidents and oppression of subject populations. When some elderly East Europeans issued a public complaint about the insensitivity of the name and imagery, there was a pile on from media and individuals calling them everything from "wowsers" to "idiots" to "fascists"...."KGB" eventually closed through lack of patronage (ie: they weren't making money) but its funny (ha-ha) that some atrocious organisations and their atrocities don't seem as evil as other atrocious organisations and their atrocities...
Yes, well I guess you just have to thank the same guy who continues to call out everything he thinks is Nazi in this country, whether it is or not and gets as much media space as he wants. Ask yourself why he can outrage the country with such puerile non events, yet when collectors try to voice their legitimate concerns, the politicians and media run for the hills. Just shows you the malicious power this guy and others wield through fear, threats and undermining democracy in Australia and in many other countries.
I agree. There are people who look for things to get upset about and look for comfort from others to support them in their fake outrage. Attention seekers! weren't loved as children. Yep wowsers is what they were called in Australia several decades ago, back then, often religious nutters who acted like they were holier than thou!
KGB security in Brisbane. They have the full on Hammer and Sickle emblem everywhere on it's webpage and work vehicles..
Why is that ok?
It's true the Victor's right the history and even though Australia fought against N.a.z.i Germany we are treated like trash by (((them)))
it wasnt closed down because no chuuz were involed
We’ve had these artefacts all these years and now they’re upset about it? Why not in 1947 or 1955, the 60s, the 70s etc? Why now? It’s like they just need to find something to get upset about.
History should never be deleted. How can civilisations look back and know what not to do when knowledge has been removed from history? Memorabilia is pieces of history that remind us of mistakes and triumph's of the past. With this we are lost and bound to make the same mistakes as the past.
This IS BIZARRE. I am "thinking a swastika " right now. Am I in danger of being arrested?
Only if the Thought Police identify you …
My goodness !! This has serious ramifications for all of us be it collecting or not. Just more of the nanny state.
Does this mean that the Australian Government are going to ban the British Government as
Essex County Hall, in Chelmsford, has lots of Swaztikas all over it or will they be making special exceptions.
Its unbelievable how insane the Australian government has become.
Is this a state or federal law? If it's federal I'm not so sure it's constitutional to devalue private property on other than just terms.
Hi. It's a federal law, covering all states and territories.
In that case it's most likely an unlawful law. Similar has come up regarding water rights and native vegetation protection laws covering private property. Both have been taken to the federal and high court but through sophistry and obvious sidestepping the courts have refused to officially acknowledge the constitutional contraventions. Unfortunately it's where we're at right now. @@jameyblewitt3596
