It's not 'illegal' immigration, that's the government's term. Illegal immigration is when you try enter the country by avoiding the authorities, a boat full of refugees is anything BUT illegal!

As usual, the well-earned sarcasm is pitch-perfect.

Great job of pointing out the FDA / civil servants' hypocrisy.

Worth repeating: “...if you’re going to do something dodgy, it doesn’t make sense to partner with someone who intends to play by the book.”

“Human rights… should transcend everything.” Agreed!

Thank you for an excellent expose on the My Freedom Movement, who, I’ve noticed, are increasingly identifying openly as right wing or conservative, hence their hatred of the public / civil service.

Here in Australia they also all too readily jump to racist scapegoating ‘solutions’, rather than pointing to bipartisan government policies that caused economic and political dislocation in the first place.

Western supremacy is strong in the My Freedom Movement, with a dash of white supremacy on the fringes

(which of course was to be expected when the so-called left ditched human rights over Covid).
