While the killing at Bondi was unforgivable, I wish the main stream media wouldn't censor what Chabad stands for and what the murdered Rabbi, Eli Shlanger was. Instead, they only attribute "Jewishness" to Chabad, never its "ultra zionist" beliefs and they hold Shlanger up as a charitable and kind man. But his charity was obscene, raising funds for the IDF committing genocide and other barbaric acts, his kindness didn't extend to Palestinians. He signed missiles headed to Gaza. What type of person does that? Oh that's right, Isaac Herzog, the president of israel who is visiting Australia in the coming week. Do we welcome these preachers of hate? No, we don't.

Thank you, Kenneth Roth and Deepcut News for this essential reflection on Australia’s new hate crime laws criminalising speech:

"...if those comments made Jewish Australians “feel harassed or intimidated”. Yet regardless of anyone’s feelings, Israel has committed genocide in Gaza and has imposed apartheid in the occupied territories." Kenneth Roth

What we are seeing is the consequences of social democracy degenerating into social managerialism where the laws of the land read like a set of corporate policies administered by an HR department.
