Hey everyone, nominate a name for tomorrow’s thread under here. Most upvotes wins a shiny reddit award and tomorrow’s thread title. I’ll keep that up till I run out of coins. Try to keep it relatively nice.

They're just so boring and annoying. Go back to your trailer parks dickheads

And selfish. So fucking selfish.

Peter Dutton dressed as Riccardo Bosi is gold!

I'm also sorry you're going through this! I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for the Contagion Caravan to have adopted the words 'medical exemption' for their terrible attititudes about masks when there are people like yourself who genuinely cannot use the. I wish I could offer a solution to the problem. Take care.

[удалено]

I'm sorry you're going through that friend.

I don’t have a solution but I just wanted to say that I’m really sorry you’re having to deal with this. You also seem to have done everything you can. I hope things get better soon.

That really sucks man, I'm sorry you have to go through it.

I regularly think about people in your position, my friend, keep your Chin up!!!

Sorry this is happening.

Sorry you are going through this.

What are their plans for tomorrow?

I think they're meeting at Parliament House again around 10. Consider this if you have to commute in the morning.

Protest at parliament at 10am

Plans?

Well this is a disturbing comment on

Anyone else see the guy doing the local weather on Prime have a dig at the cookers? “Come back when it’s -10!”

Hahahaha yes

Just seen that it was fucking gold.

I think they're referring to the hippies in the group.

I think they still believe the Eureka flag is a labour movement flag.

This is a niche complaint about the 'protesters', but as the grandson of a merchant navy seaman of the Second World War it really irritates me to see them miss-using the merchant navy flag. My grandad risked his life while in the merchant navy, including surviving the torpedoing of his ship off Newcastle, and these lunk heads are so stupid that they think the flag he served under is the 'real' Australian flag rather than the flag flown by Australian ships. Hundreds of Australian merchant seamen died in the Second World War, and many thousands of Australian workers have crewed merchant navy ships over the years.

Hi, completely off topic, you may enjoy this 3 part series about the Japanese submarine attacks on Newcastle & Sydney.

I agree 100% though this article talks a little more about why they’re using it

Any photos of protest vehicles sporting business livery/names? Given their eagerness to brigade google reviews of local businesses, it’s only right for Canberrans to return the favour.

Here are a few local businesses that have thrown their support behind these morons. I won’t post the website where I got the list because I don’t want to promote these wankers.

[удалено]

Looks like a local pizza joint may need some support

Four reviews? Sounds like they've stumbled on another poor unsuspecting business that is similarly named.

"Won't take much to destroy their rating" wonder if they realise how many Canberrans love Grease Monkey, or that their google reviews has almost 3000 positive reviews

As a mentally disabled person, I don't appreciate stupid being compared with intellectually disabled. That's a wild assumption and that kind of comment is very harmful to people with disabilities. I would ask you to reflect on the appropriateness of your statement there. Thank you.

Not to mention bringing their young children to protest in a dangerous environment

the neo nutzis in melbs have a habit of this too :/

Does anyone know if it is the cookers calling in fake ambulance call outs? Or is there something else going on?

I don't represent the ESA or ACTAS, and I'm posting only in my own capacity. With that out of the way, I just looked at the map and there are ~ 15 jobs on the board. During the day it's pretty normal to see 30+ if we're particularly busy.

it does seam a bit busy for a Monday night...

This video is comedy gold:

Nice to see we’ve found the brains of the group

to be fair I have the same views about ket

Jesus Christ.

"I'm a scientist"

There is one woman in particular in the chats with like Viking makeup who can easily be engaged in distracting debate

Saw a few people discussing Andrew Barrs response to the protesters which did not include the full quote on what he said at the presser

casting some shade that will no-doubt fly over their heads with this one

The quote from Mark Parton is something else. That is the politest “these people are crazy” I’ve seen in some time! 😂

Apparently Barr said

If these idiots cause trouble for the book fair, there'll be hell to pay

The Lifeline volunteers are well organised. I'd back them in a fight with these bozos.

I’m waiting for the “our cause is more important” comments by them. That should build a nice little divide in the group- those who care about mental health and those who don’t

I'm down for this to be the tipping point to start moving these stains out of here.

Send in the tear gas.

Time to start taking bets on where they'll camp next? 🤔

Mark Parton very solemly informs us it is difficult to have a rational conversation with these people

I'm suspicious of Partos motives - ten bucks says he thought he could win these people over. His ego would make him believe he could.

Parto's always been too left for the right and too right for the left.

He deserves some KFC after that.

Nothing like the Clout Goblin havin a go.

Horrible thought just occurred - what are the chances they'll hear the ACT Gov announcement about easing check-in requirements and take that as an encouraging sign that their message is starting to get through...?

I really want to see the ACT government announce an extension due to the protests. Pretty sure that would hit a nevre

One of the speeches on Saturday was trying to claim Barnaby Joyce’s resignation offer as the result of their pressure and ‘arrest warrants’. They’ll claim anything.

They're already using the QLD announcement of similar as "proof" that it's "working".

I'm not sure most of them understand that the ACT government exists

Over on FB they’re already taking credit for Anna Palaszchuk easing check in rules in QLD. Delusional bunch of morons

According to Pervy Pete on his live stream, they’ve reached out to Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame to attend and speak at the rally.

He just wanted to slip into their dms

With omicron easing off the restrictions will soon follow. 100% without a doubt they will claim credit for this.

3 cheers to the old bloke who got filmed telling them what a bunch of morons (cleaned it up for here) they are.

Aye Thai old bugger is my new spirit animal

I was waiting next to one of them at the lights at the entrance to EPIC. It was a good laugh

[удалено]

They got to play a game of Capture the Flag though, so they've finally achieved about as much as my childhood camping trips with the Girl Guides did.

Now they don’t even know what they’re protesting against

The other day when people were arguing with each other, some of the people near the streamers were saying "oh that person has got to be an undercover cop" or "that guy has got to be a plant" Seriously, if there were any undercover cops in there they would just be staying undercover, not starting fights.

That dickhead’s a spy!

I mean, of course there are spies in the camp. Are they seriously dumb enough to think that all our three and four letter agencies are just going to quietly ignore the rhetoric and occasional outright calls for domestic terrorism?

I feel like tomorrow's is going to be interesting for the fact there is a protest about Morrison's inability to support aged care during covid

There are a few things planned tomorrow at New PH, including the Nursing and Midwifery Federation, and a pro-refugee rally. Going to be a bunch of clashing ideologies in one place.

So some old mate just took the mic in front of APH and suggested the best way to deal with this is to ring fence the area, and bring in the bombers to level everything.

The Wollongong Concreter, who should just snort a line of concrete and HARDEN UP!!

Seriously??? God damn it why must I make food at the good points! Which stream was it?

Why not nuke it from orbit? It's the only way to be sure.

He also talked about storming the building and "taking care of" anyone they find inside, including Malcolm Roberts.

Sounds like inciting violence to me...

Update: Malcolm Roberts came along to do a speech to gather some low hanging fruit for One Nation, and is currently being out-crazied and actively engaging in a shouting match with the crowd. Poetic really.

The biggest imbecile in the senate (close contest with Manila George) is out imbeciled by the crowd. Big day.

He is literally explaining how parliament works lol

Malcolm Roberts has been speaking to the cookers out the front of APH, and just completely lost the crowd hahaha.

Does anyone have a link to a video of Malcolm Roberts' speech?

You either die a hero, or live long enough to see Malcolm Roberts become the voice of reason.

Now he's telling them he can't just change laws overnight. They don't like that either hahaha

New activity:

Or yell back ‘my body, my choice’ and they spontaneously combust

Ask them if they're not wearing them because they're weak bitches. I said that to someone on Friday and he kept his unmasked eyes to the ground.

Naughty boy

2 dollar SIM card from woolworths . Go forth and troll.

What were the chats you were in?

P.s. pls update as I can’t watch at work 🥲

DiscoDeadPigeon on Twitch?

Bunch of fucking selfish cunts. Please excuse my venting. What the hell do they even think they will accomplish by inconveniencing plain old canberrans? Do they think we make the rules? Are we all lizard peoples and just don’t know it. They can take a dose of their own logic and fuck off back where they came from. Grrr

Bus diversion around the war memorial because apparently that's a protest target due to.... reasons?

Seems like Morrison and Albanese are attending a last post ceremony there at 5pm or so.

Because part of their modus operandi is to appeal to traditionalists. Thus the endless reveilles, exorcisms, speeches about community, action as a group showing unity, etcetera etcetera etcetera.

There were a few at Watson shops about 15mins ago. One tried to sneak into the supermarket with her Australian flag cape just as I was leaving. A few minutes later she emerged without her grog and went back to the orange landcruiser labeled Zombie Hunter to complain. Couldn't hear what they were saying but she got a mask out of the back and went back in. She then complained all the way back about how she'd never seen so many sick people. Alcohol comes first.

Tangent but walking through a carpark the other day someone had an A4 page mashed in their front grill.

Looks like the cops have moved most of them on from the ABC, there’s a bunch of belligerents trying to intimidate the cops left.

Are the ABC even still based there? I heard talk that they were decommissioning that building.

It must really piss these assholes off that everyone in Canberra is wearing a mask.

I was driving behind a car that had a "wake up Australia" sign on the back of it, so I chucked my mask on (in my car by myself) and overtook him, whilst staring at him

I made sure I wore mine everywhere outdoors in Civic yesterday to annoy them

I drive to work at 5AM, but I usually take Horse Park Drive. This morning I decided to take Flemington Road. I must say, it’s very therapeutic driving past EPIC with the horn on at that time of morning. Might have to make it a regular thing.

You are my hero! 😂❤️

Not all Heroes wear capes

Er - There's a lot of Ambulance Responses logged all in a very small window

The only phone number these cunts should be calling is 1300 6555 06

Notwithstanding the normal (albeit significant) workload of our beloved ACT Ambulance Service, this seems a bit odd. It's hard to tell though, they are always super busy (even well before COVID started).

I noticed that too and thought it was very odd. Seeing that they were apparently floating the idea on telegram, I'm going to assume they've gone and done it. Fucking shit stains on society. Surely this is enough to actually do something to get rid of them.

It seems a big high, when I've looked in the past for things like storm damage paths, there's usually only been a small handful of ambo calls

[удалено]

That IS sus, looking at the timestamps

I have to get my booster at AIS shortly, are they hanging around there? Don’t really give a shit if they are, just need to plan my trip so I get to the appointment on time.

Just got mine, no troubles. No queue either, off the bus to getting boosted within 5 minutes.

I work and live in Bruce. Looks pretty quiet and there are two roads in. Braybrook Street looked fully clear 20 minutes ago.

I just saw the idiots down at the ABC screaming and carrying on.

Have they only just noticed the ABC office after spending a week lapping Northbourne?

That would explain the almighty racket I can hear - some redneck yelling into a megaphone interspersed with random honking

They shouldn’t have chosen 666 as the frequency

Maybe they need to renew their subscription to 'Reading Eggs'

Aww they had to pause their main Facebook page because of trolls, how sad?

Saw a stream of a woman showing off the EPIC camp. I didn't realize how much of it they were taking up: looks like they're occupying so much of the space usually used for event parking that they're really going to screw over the Lifeline Book Fair this weekend. (Not to mention the people who won't go near the place because they don't want to be verbally abused.)

Yeah it’s super annoying I was looking forward to the bookfair being back at EPIC (cause thoroughbred park was somewhat disappointing) and now this- only hope is they leave before then

Lifeline are thinking it will be OK.

I went to the farmers market on Saturday and the tents were only meters from shed. I feel for the poor folk working at the epic maccas…

Yep. My bestie and I always try and go to the bookfair. We won't be this weekend.

Hey guys, sorry from my neck of the woods you have to put up with this.

As much as it would be great to confused and scare the cookers, exploiting the homeless isn't the way to go. They're people just like us, but who have been through shit circumstances. No need to expose them to the lowest of society.

https://www.facebook.com/OnSceneACT

Please don’t give that guy any air time. He’s unprofessional, a deadset nuisance and has refused to take down his photos of accident fatalities despite affected families asking.

they mentioned in the zello that a 9 year old died or went missing today, so the organisers have gone quiet to 'fact-check'. Somethings going on with them today

Posted just now on a local

Passed a billboard near Govt House depicting a tank with a syringe as a barrel. Tell me you’ve never feared for your life without telling me you’ve never feared for your life.

Just had a troglodyte wish death on my kids for posting a glowing review of Kingos.

Cookers have just entered Bunda St enmass of Cars…heading towards Canberra Centre

Meh, not going to slow Bunda street down much. Though I doubt they understand the concept of a shared zone.

[удалено]

Well they’ve found the ABC

Cops eventually arrived. I’m just trying to get my fucking job done.

This

Yeah cause it was a deliberately abbreviated response.

Blocking traffic is fair enough, even if you don't care for the person doing it. That's protest. Breaking your shit, threatening you, etc, is not fair enough. Stopping the business of government is the whole point of protest, and I support these incoherent gnats' right to do so because I want the option to do the same thing if I have a grievance the government decides it doesn't need to listen to.

You're going off one sentence quoted by Trudy McIntosh, not the entire statement by Andrew Barr?

Oof, way to completely miss the shot on this one. That's not even in the right neighborhood of empathy.

Yeah, that's a ball drop from Barr, really disappointing after what i'd consider decent leadership during the earlier parts of the pandemic.

Yeah that’s a bit weak sauce from Barr. Political point scoring over denouncing the bad behaviour. Gross

Panicking in their zello chat, apparantly they've "lost a 9 year old boy". Unsure if this is a missing kid or if there was an incident. But the person saying it was in tears and all the admins have gone to their closed room to discuss and 'verify'

There’s an ambulance response at garran v near the vax hub according the esa map fyi.

I want this

Haute Covid. Very natty.

ACT Policing press conference 1.30pm.

Did anyone catch this? I missed it

Where to watch? Please don't say Facebook....

I gonna ask a dumb question. Where can you watch it? Online?

These protesters have got me on edge. Now every time I see a beat up car with an interstate plate I’m like

Govt. House folk on the move.

Heading for the ABC station apparently.

Talk of Gallows outside Govt. House.

Peace and love and gallows

Nothing says protest like some year 5 chalk writing

The blue masks have nano worms in them, that's why the horse dewormer works, it is important to deliver this information to the cops guarding the governor general's house. I'm a scientist.

'I'm a nerd, I'm a scientist and do crazy crap like that'. But is it peer-reviewed crazy crap?

I love the cop that walks down towards the gate, hears 5 seconds of the bull being spouted and has to walk away
