Im ex military and I had to fight for my own free speech in
the face of right wingers . At the last state, federal and local elections in
Qld the far right vote in Townsville was about 25%, thats with KAP . Thats not including the
rusted on LNP and Labor hard right. During the reclaim rallies they were on
tele saying they didnt mind hanging out with nazis and fascists . Bob Katter ,
of the "Australian race of people" said he backed
the Nazi Anning
"1000%" and was photographed with the ex military neo nazi group the
UPF smiling with Blair Cotrell.
Australia fought the nazis and fascists (although many
shared the same ideas) . This makes all those self styled patriotic flag waving
hypocrites treasonous traitors and inter generational enemy fifth columnist
agents and guerrillas . Not all vets , ex military and not even a majority
attend dawn services at the best of times.
Presumably , these enemy agents will assume the role of those
jingoist patriots of the white feather brigades of yore who vicariously exercised
their purported patriotism with other peoples blood, and purport to assume the
moral high ground and demand to know why their unpatriotic neighbours haven’t
headed the call to prayer (contrary to s116 of the constitution which forbids
the national imposition of a religious observance) and rolled out their mats at
the end of the driveway facing east even if they are atheists . It will be the
same as the envelope with the white feather.
Ironically, those turning Anzac day into a nationalist rally
with consequences wont know of the history surrounding WW1 . They would do well to read this book which is
in Qld libraries “ Loyalty and disloyalty : social conflict on the Queensland
homefront, 1914-18 / Raymond Evans “ https://hip.jcu.edu.au/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=158D674U783G4.562735&profile=t&uri=link=3100006~!911969~!3100001~!3100002&aspect=basic_search&menu=search&ri=1&source=~!horizon&term=Loyalty+and+disloyalty+%3A+social+conflict+on+the+Queensland+homefront%2C+1914-18+%2F&index=ALLTITL
To the “love it or
leave it” brigades, I have never even
owned a civilian passport . And when we become a republic you can all lay back
and think of England. In other words….
And a song for the day- Hunters and
Collectors "What's a few men”. It’s a lot different to mythologising and
turning remembrance and reflection into a nationalist celebration and the
memorials into, as one writer put it "secular temples" . And giving a
revisionist impression to children of a people who, in the main, weren't far
off the nazis in their thinking and actions at the time. Remember the Coniston
massacre happened at the time of the rise of Hitler and Mussolini. Making the
dead into glorious gods takes the mind off remembering the incompetent
aristocrats and politicians and murderous generals who slaughtered millions.
That blind unquestioning obedience is the law of the tyrants and of the slaves.
That we were taken to war in Iraq on a lie. And this lie led to everything that
has happened in the middle east since. Andrew Wilkie warned of this BEFORE THE
INVASION . REMEMBER WHAT TAKES US TO , AND CAUSES WAR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAJPFt88GYY
