In other words, you don't have freedom of speech.

And, like I said, among the G20, it's among the worst when it comes to speech.

What? Are you living in the Victoria Desert? How could you not know about Australia's weirdly restrictive internet laws and internet censorship?

https://www.efa.org.au/censorship/


And it made the rounds on the internet on places like reddit when other western countries mocked Australia for banning small-breasted women and "female ejaculation" porn.

https://www.somebodythinkofthechild...-small-breasts/

And your porn cannot have people peeing.

What absurdly weird laws.



But I guess you weren't aware of any of this. The censorship, your oddly specific porn laws. The restrictions. You didn't know that some people were calling it The Great Firewall of Australia?

http://content.time.com/time/world/...1995615,00.html

And you can look up the government owned and controlled black list, as well. Obviously, governments black listing websites is not a pro-freedom endeavor.



It doesn't work. The laws were created to reduce violence in Australia. That didn't happen. A bunch of idiots got together and wanted to make a feel-good law following a mass-shooting. That ended up doing nothing to reduce homicides. You can support idiocy, sure. But know you're giving up freedom and spending tax payer dollars on a regulation that doesn't even work.




You weren't aware that as recently as 2016, protests went all the way to Australia's high-court because people weren't allowed to protest?

And you weren't aware of this?

You can't compare the average Australian with the NZ govt wanting to sue the ABC for defamation & then claim, "Australia doesn't have a Freedom Of Speech."

Weirdly restrictive internet laws???
Once again as an average Australian I have access to all worldwide & mainstream porn sites that are just as available in America too.
These sites show Golden Shower & scat videos.
We also have access to bestiality sites.
None of them are banned or censored.

Small breasted women or teens?
Pretty obvious reasoning that they may be banned/censored simply because the age of these women/teens can not be verified.
But once again you just have to type in "small ****" & you'll get your share of videos.
And female ejaculation...once again, just type in "Squirting."

Not gonna bother getting into a gun debate.
All I'm gonna say is the last thing I fear walking the streets is getting shot at or becoming a victim in a mass shooting.

As a parent the notion of a mass shooting at my son's school is absurd. The notion of debating whether teachers have to arm themselves is absurd. The notion of bullet proof kevlar back-packs is absurd.

2016 protests that went all the way to the high court???

And yet you provide one link regarding that Canadian shock jock whose tour to Australia was to promote & incite bigotry.
She deliberately goes to a Muslim based community & wants to film outside a mosque & is quoted as saying, "...with the sole intention to criticise Islam."

Then looks at the camera claiming it's a No Go Zone & her rights for Free Speech is being violated.

Prior to her touring, there was another shock jock from America promoting chauvinism & basic bigotry...most of the major venues cancelled his shows due to public backlash as well as several universities he was supposed to "lecture" at.

Police resources & man hours were wasted following both shock jocks through out the city to protect both the shock jocks & the public protesters that gathered.The male shock jock was personally billed for wasting police resources & he cut short his tour & left without paying.

The high ranking police officer in the video you showed was just doing his job trying to defuse a potential volatile situation that the female shock jock was obviously trying to incite.


How the hell can you translate that as illegal to gather in public much less label it as a protest???
