The federal government is facing accusations it has failed to do enough to curb right-wing extremism, after a man with a swastika painted on his forehead allegedly attacked an Aboriginal woman with a makeshift flamethrower.Labor and Greens MPs have urged the government to do more on right-wing extremism
They allege he yelled racial obscenities at the woman before trying to burn her by using a can of deodorant and a lighter as a makeshift flamethrower. Federal Greens' First Nations spokeswoman Lidia Thorpe said in a statement that politicians of all parties needed to send a clear message that racism is unacceptable.
"It's not OK for this cowardly, atrocious and unprovoked attack to occur in my community, it's not okay that it happened in this country, it's not OK that it happened at all," he said.
They will blame everything on right wing extremism because left wing extremism is conducive to their goals
nice photoshop
MS Paint wants their edit back.
PatsKarvelas Is that the Hindu symbol on his head?
Sophiemcneill Federal Immigration Minister, Alex Hawke, has rejected the advice of both ASIO and the AFP that far-right violent extremism is on the rise in Australia. I despair at the quality of politicians in the Morrison government! They never fail to disappoint.
Send him to jail & after put him in a mental institution .
Anyone that questions 'authority' or the establishment, which, in 2020 established itself as malevolent, shall be deemed as such.
Meanwhile the hard left carry on without scrutiny
why is he not wearing mask ? He should be fined 😂😂😂
If the government is serious about eliminating white supremacists then they should eliminate themselves.
Left wing extremism is the problem. 🙄
Just watch sky news, its all about division and hatred towards the labour gov, its a cancer on any society, it has no place in Australia
Making up any story..again! Any manufactured photo again! How manipulated . .!! Just be honest and say ABC support the Govt who promptly want to push Hate Speech laws Then we can lobby and tell auspol to STFU
Is that a real person? Looks photoshopped Try again Convincing NO-ONE !!
Even the simple look at that photo pisses me off. We lost too many good men and women for this to resurface again. How can we forget to remember LestWeForget those that support this type of hatred are nothing more than cowards at heart.
What about left wing extremism?
Interview him as well to see why he did it. Will have more credential if hear both sides
One right wing person commits a crime - zomagod whitesupremacynazyfascistoutof control absolute plague! Thousands of left wing people kill burn loot murder- just mostly peaceful protesters
AusFedPolice whitesupremacyvwatch ? Stop lying for ScottyFromCoverUps and do your job
PatsKarvelas I think they've done more than enough on right wing extremism. If they could stop encouraging it, that would go a long way to making us all safer.
Well I consider they left wing extremist when they wear that key on his forehead. Just remember who the imposters / actors were. The most extreme left wingers of all time. Control Freaks of all time.
I often wonder who these people are really serving. CFW may be gone but her repellent & divisive world views haven’t.
I could eat him. would that help?
The coward attacked a woman! Put him in general population with a few indigenous bothers that’ll sort it out, then his mates might not be so keen if their cut from the same cloth.
How much fucking lower can this country sink? He tried to set her on fire and kill her. So we have now sunk to Nazi Germany levels. What's next, we build gas chambers for the Aboriginals. Thanks to people like Murdoch, Dutton, Hanson etc, this is why Aboriginals are attacked.
Yeah, more work needs to be done to get this dude better sunglasses. PS. Which A-Hole friend put sunscreen on his head as a joke?
PatsKarvelas Call this what it is: terrorism.
PatsKarvelas Swastika is the wrong way
PatsKarvelas They are conservative voters and the likes of Dutton agree with them. No action will be taken.
Sounds mentally-ill to me. But regardless you can't actually do anything. All governments do is create a police state. It's like making calls for the gov to do more after a murder. Might as well call for the creation of the Minority Report.
What about left wing extremism. Why are we not just doing something about extremism? This is the issue the Labor party never want to fix a whole problem. RC into the big 4 banks not all banks, fix domestic violence not all violence and now right wing extremism not all extremism.
Radicalized Budhist Extremist judging by the symbol on his forehead.
Not a not cross bun
.....but its probably some dude with an IQ of 20 that drew it backwards when looking in the mirror. the more identity politics is pushed, the more often these events will happen.
But but that’s their voter base. 🤔
Scott Morrison says”There’s good people on both sides”
One violent looney guy & suddenly we have right wing extremism front & centre news for ABC/socialist/green/Indigenous/BLM/climate change virtue seeking nutters coming outta the woodwork.
OMG.... Right Wing Extremism!!. Terrorism, Covid and now this!. We clearly need many, many more laws to help keep us safe.
No doubt this racist nutcase is a member of the Proud boys. They are nothing other than an extreme right wing terrorist organisation that attracts these kind of losers.
Dutton & Morrison aren’t going to take action here. Why would they punish their voters
And get rid of their core voter base?
Ethier: 1. Composit artist don't know what a swastica looks like; 2. Compositor too uncomfortable to draw a swastica; 3. This dummy painted his liquid paper swastica in the mirror; or 4. He's not a nazi he's a buddist... a violent, angry bhuddist. All possibilities are amazing.
Difficult to pin down. Even on-line chat rooms can be hidden away. And unless they’re doing or threatening something specific ... !
OMG, I think the aboriginal community have more to fear from inside their own community than from one nut job who probably can’t even spell the word supremacist or even know what a right wing extremist is.
Hard for a right wing extreme government to conceptualize that.
They could start by not contributing to the conditions that radicalise these morons.
Correction, Right wing terrorism ....
If this guy was Muslim the entire population of Australia would be up in arms & laws would be passed. Nazis were scum 70 years ago & are still scum today. It's time to start throwing them into prison.
Bet this is very likely to turn out as just an individual local nutcase off his meds rather than anything else. They should never have shut the loony bins (maybe more 'forensic hospitals' would help). All aboard the pet bandwagons anyway folks. Enjoy.
I reckon the endemic domestic violence and sexual abuse in indigenous communities, which is a far greater and more difficult problem should be the focus. But yenno, politics.
For one idiot that the police commissioner just said on the radio that it not a common thing in the community
This is very distressing.
but they're LNP voters. don't want to upset their base.
Thanks newscorpaus
Is that you, PeterDutton_MP?
I'm sure there should be witnesses or CCTV, WA isn't that backwards?
Who is to say that right wing extremism does not exist within security/intelligence agencies? Take a peek into their performance on dealing with Man Haron Monis & likes. How 'easy' it is for a psycho to kill people. 'Ease' is effectuated by actions and/or departure from acting.
Looks like someone at the ABC didn't do a good job at their Photoshop. The swastika is backwards, in the Buddhist style.
Oh my God!!
😅 surely this is satire calling for the LNP to do more 🤦♀️ about rw extremism 🤣
Just a refresher for everyone in simple language. Nazi = bad There was a World War about this. There are memorials around Australia about this. Supporting fascism is disrespecting the ANZACs. FFS
Disgusting how they have bastardised the symbol of Hinduism as a symbol of hatred
A guy with a swastika tattoo must surely stand out
FatherBob In the old days, deviants like him would have been stoned and thrown out of the village to be eaten by wolves.
How many WHITE people are members of Government in: Somalia, Sudan, Nigeria, Haiti, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Syria, Peru, Brazil, Venezuela, China, India, etc, etc, etc? 1/2
How can the entire left use one drug addled lunatic to stoke a Reichstag Fire? There is no way we can permit this to grow into national slander and oppression. The far left is definitely on the March. Be warned and watch out.
I keep hearing about this right wing extremism but I just don’t see it? What are they talking about?
Better late than never!
First of all the reason the Swastika was described wrongly by the Aborigine is because they made it up.
These are same people who vote for LNP and watch Sky after dark. Why LNP Newscorp do anything to disappoint them?
I wonder if it's because an awful lot of white South Africans came there.
I thought Facebook was responsible for causing and fixing these things ?
Would be a good start if they stopped enabling them !!
Not a very dedicated Nazi putting the logo backward. Maybe it's a photo in the mirror.
If you’re gonna be a fuckwit, maybe get someone else to paint it on your forehead instead of in the mirror so it doesn’t come out backwards.
Those servo sunnies are the most offensive thing about his head.
Was the victims name Smollett?
‘WhAt AbOuT lEfT wInG eXtReMisM!’
First read this headline as: 'Calls for government to do more right wing extremism after WA attack' That 'on' is doing some heavy lifting.
How many Nazi attacks have there been this year
Instead of increasing surveillance and moving further toward a police state, how about the government stop its structural violence against Indigenous Australians? Aboriginal people get locked up without bail in WA for petty crimes and they die in prison all the time.
That’s not a swastika.
I think they need to clearly do more for mental health. Anyone who looks like that is obviously delusional.
One attack. With a can of deo and a loighta? There's your extremism right there folks lol
Does anyone believe this crap?
Terrorism is terrorism. It doesn’t matter their race, their nationality, their religion, their gender or their political belief. To have a nazi symbol tattooed on your forehead is a clear sign that he embraces an evil ideology.
