A gross misuse of a particular piece of legislation for a purpose for which it was never intended. The protection and shielding of certain individuals, who have a record of using their position of authority, wealth or power to subvert the public good.

He didn't show a nazi symbol, just an illustration of what these people stand for.

This artwork is not promoting the Nazi movement. It's doing the opposite. It's criticising the Nazis, and criticising present day politicians for being like them. This is freedom of political expression, and its a sad time that someone can be arrested for that.

Well done @australianlabor.bsky.social it’s illegal to criticize Nazis if a nazi symbol is needed to indicate what is being criticized! Man, how did Labor become so fucked in the head? Labor used to stand for something good. Like, I even voted Labor when I was young and stupid.
