Here comes the speech police

This is a Humpty Dumpty “law” that can be twisted into anything the ruling kakistocrats* want it to be:

*A kakistocracy is a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. The word was coined as early as the seventeenth century.

James Morrow asked the Senator:

‘I don’t know why we just can’t have more free speech in this country rather than narrowing what we can say every time there’s a problem.’

Senator Bridget McKenzie gave an awkward pause, staring down the lens of the camera.

‘Ah… James… We’re gonna have to uh still love each other but disagree on how this is rolled out. I-I love our country. I believe in free speech. Let’s be very clear here. It is not mosques that are being fire-bombed, it is synagogues.’

It’s also statues of Captain Cook and Australian war memorials…

In addition, the following classes are now “protected” under this new law, under threat of mandatory jail time: – Race – Religion – Sex – Sexual Orientation – Gender Identity – Intersex Status – Disability – Nationality – National or Ethnic Origin – POLITICAL OPINION
