I myself am convinced that our lives and our human interaction need a certain glue. Cultural and <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/naturalHeritage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturalHeritage</a> are such glues. Leaving the <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/UNESCO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UNESCO</a>, is a further step towards <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/authoritarian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#authoritarian</a> egocentrism. But leaving them for the third time already* is a sign for a failed state.

DoomsdaysCW<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/VictoriaAustralia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VictoriaAustralia</a>’s draconian new <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiProtest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiProtest</a> laws will have a chilling effect on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FreeSpeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeSpeech</a> — and won’t keep anyone safeFar-reaching anti-protest measures and giving police more repressive powers only serve to increase the risk of escalating violence.by Sarah Schwartz, Jul 9, 2025"In response to the weekend’s attack on the East Melbourne Hebrew Congregation, Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan has announced she will forge ahead with new anti-protest measures and more <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#police</a> powers."In doing so, she is following what has become the new normal for state governments across the country: using acts of racism and violence as a pretext to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClampDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClampDown</a> on unrelated democratic rights."Taking to the streets in peaceful protest is one of the main ways for people to come together and express our political views when our representatives aren’t listening to us. But this right is not without limits. Every person has a right to worship in safety. The attack on East Melbourne Synagogue was not a protest; it was an act of antisemitism. The suspect has been apprehended and charged with a multitude of criminal offences."Two other incidents over the weekend, the targeting of a business with ties to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation — a US-backed <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Israeli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Israeli</a> organisation linked to the massacres of unarmed <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Palestinians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Palestinians</a> seeking aid — and a weapons company with links to the Israeli military, are also being referred to as justifying new laws. It is important not to conflate these actions against Israel with an attack against a Jewish place of worship. International human rights law, as well as our current laws, already place limits on protests that involve intimidation and violence."So what is actually being proposed in response? The Allan government is suggesting the creation of a new criminal offence for wearing a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FaceCovering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FaceCovering</a> at peaceful protests, banning 'dangerous attachment devices' (e.g. a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/chain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chain</a>, a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BikeLock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BikeLock</a>) — which have long been used in non-violent civil disobedience — and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/criminalising" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#criminalising</a> peaceful protests around places of religious worship. "The ban on face coverings would be a first in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Australia</a>. It would mirror measures used in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/authoritarian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#authoritarian</a> states that force people to submit themselves to various forms of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/StateSurveillance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StateSurveillance</a>."<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/VictoriaPolice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VictoriaPolice</a> has been using facial recognition software for years without any regulatory or legislative framework to prevent breaches of privacy. This technology, combined with a ban on face coverings at protests, would essentially amount to an obligation on behalf of individuals to submit to surveillance by the state, corporations and other groups that surveil protesters."Unless you’re a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MiningCompany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MiningCompany</a> spending hundreds of millions buying politicians’ favour or can wine and dine decision-makers, peaceful protest is one of the main ways for people to hold governments and corporations to account. Protests for the eight-hour workday, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WomensRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WomensRights</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FirstNationsRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FirstNationsRights</a> and the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiWar</a> movement have led to significant improvements in all of our lives. Know something?"Many people attending protests wear face coverings to protect their privacy and anonymity. For temporary migrants, the consequences of identification can include visa cancellation and detention. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FarRight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FarRight</a> groups, abusers of gender-based violence and other political groups have all been documented as engaging in doxing, surveillance and retaliatory violence against people identified at peaceful protests."Even with exemptions, a ban would mean that people who wear facemasks for reasons of health, disability status, or religious or cultural reasons would be at risk of police targeting and made to justify their use of a face mask."Adding new repressive police powers against peaceful protesters only serves to increase the risk of escalating violence at already heightened public demonstrations. People will not stop taking to the streets on issues they care about, even if the state tries to stifle their voices. Donald <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a>’s deployment of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NationalGuard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NationalGuard</a> in response to protests in LA shows us how deploying more state force at protests increases rather than decreases the risk of violence. "A ban on protests outside or within a certain proximity to places of worship would mean police could arrest those engaging in peaceful protests for a genuine, non-discriminatory purpose — for example, protests by survivors of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClergySexualAbuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClergySexualAbuse</a> or by congregants against the political activities of their own religious institutions."It would also have the unintended consequence of rendering large areas of the state no-go zones for peaceful protest, due to the high number of places of worship. Similar laws in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NSW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NSW</a> are already being challenged for their <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/unconstitutionality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unconstitutionality</a>."Taken together, this suite of laws, which would provide police with extraordinary powers against people peacefully raising their voices against <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/injustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#injustice</a>, would have a chilling effect, deterring <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MarginalisedGroups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarginalisedGroups</a> from attending protests and exercising their rights to freedom of expression, which the Victorian government has sought to protect."Ultimately, banning face coverings at peaceful protests and banning protests outside places of worship would not have done anything to prevent what occurred over the weekend. Premier Allan knows this. Yet she is stuck in the same reactive law-and-order merry-go-round that saw NSW Premier Chris Minns enact fear-based, repressive anti-protest measures in response to what we now know was an opportunistic criminal conspiracy."Encouraging people to express their political views peacefully is the antidote to non-peaceful forms of protest and is something that all governments should be encouraging and facilitating. At times like this, we should be able to trust our politicians not to fuel division and panic through misguided and knee-jerk responses, but to take measures to address the root causes of racism and hatred."<a href="https://www.crikey.com.au/2025/07/09/victoria-anti-protest-laws-police-powers-jacinta-allan-miznon-east-melbourne-synagogue/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.crikey.com.au/2025/07/09/victoria-anti-protest-laws-police-powers-jacinta-allan-miznon-east-melbourne-synagogue/</a><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiProtestLaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiProtestLaws</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ProtestLawsAustralia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtestLawsAustralia</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ACAB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ACAB</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SilencingFreeSpeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SilencingFreeSpeech</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SilencingDissent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SilencingDissent</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CriminalizingProtest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CriminalizingProtest</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authoritarianism</a>
