I’m not sure what you’re talking about with hot and cold there buddy. Here is an example to illustrate my point: the actual definition of far right (e.g. in a dictionary) is extreme racist, ethno-supremacist, corporatist, authoritarian, anti free speech, etc. In recent years I have seen the label “far right” applied to: people who opposed those stupid lockdowns, people who questioned those snake oil medical interventions, people who go to the gym, people who eat meat, people who are for populism, people who acknowledge the existence of a deep state, people who want responsible and sustainable immigration policies, and so on. The term “far right” has been thrown about so much and applied so carelessly recently, as to almost render it meaningless.
You’re spreading misinformation and hate speech. You are inciting people to inflict harm on others. If any of these people who’s names you butchered committed actual crimes, that’s a matter for law enforcement to deal with and the judicial system to preside over, and not for you to decide.
You are spreading misinformation and also slandering. If those people are guilty of breaking laws then it’s up to law enforcement and the judicial system to decide not you.

Yeah actually yer man said in the video the pervert thing was investigated and dismissed a while ago. On one hand it seems reasonable that you can’t take a picture of a dude on a bus and then claim he’s a wrong ‘un online - it’s kinda like doxxing in a way. On the other hand the incitement part is a bit too “minority report”or thought crime for my liking. Cops are saying that because yer agitator buck posted that online, then maybe something could potentially happen to the IPAS guy because of the heightened tensions around that area Newtown Kennedy. It adds an extra legal layer (perhaps unnecessary and perhaps open to abuse) to an act that was already wrong in and of itself. I guess that’s the Orwellian part - the preventing future crimes aspect to it.
@@jackhughes1325 Its interesting story for a number of reasons.

“Incite others to do harm” is nonsense. That guy read Catcher in the Rye and then murdered John Lennon. Is that JD Salinger’s fault? That other guy watched Taxi Driver and then shot Ronald Reagan.

Taking a photo of someone without their knowledge and then creating any sort of social media post saying they did x y or x IS real scumbag behaviour. And in fareness, anyone who behaves like that should get a record so that society can keep an eye on people who just don't get the concept of society.
Agree it’s scummy behaviour, it’s akin to doxxing. Disagree that the “concept of society” entails keeping “an eye on people”, unless you live in the former East Germany or North Korea maybe.
