Fun Fact,
At the Melbourne rally there was a contingent of young Muslims present with some of the Street Dawa activists handing out leaflets near that raised seating area above Parliament Station. It must have been amusing for them to see from their vantage point a bunch of White people punching seven bells out of each other on account of Islam while they sat un-molested and un-worried the whole time.

More problems for the Reclaim playlist...

"John Farnham and his manager Glenn Wheatley have strongly attacked the organisers of the racist activist group Reclaim Australia, calling their use of iconic songs including Farnham's You're The Voice "disgusting".

"I have successfully pulled down the use of You're the Voice from Youtube that these guys have been using," Wheatley said in a statement. "The use was disgusting as it showed the decapitation of those poor souls who lost their lives."

"John and I are seriously opposed to the use of John's song at the rallies. It no way reflects our support in any way," said Wheatley."

Shockadelic, "Strange how this "movement" brings out the hypocrisy and self-destruction of hasbeen celebrities"

Tabloid hacks who make the 'news'(sic) by shirt-fronting celebs to get a reaction.

Of course, as some so ably demonstrate, they always have an audience of bored people with SFA to do, who are just waiting to be outraged. LOL

Shocky,

"After pissing off their most avid fans, they won't be getting too many more royalty checks."

Well Lol!...as if they'd wish their creative product to be hijacked by a mob of fearful simple-minded dolts who get their jollies from dribbling loyalty to some racist trouble-making, ex-Sri-Lankan religious nutter winding them up with a few Aussie!, Aussie!, Aussie! - Oi!, Oi!, Oi!'s.

Extraordinary how you blokes can promote the likes of this cringe-worthy dingbat.

Poirot, I'm not promoting anyone.
But these celebrities cluelessly presume they are (even though they have no control of other people's actions).

So feel compelled to make some public condemnatory statement (or remove videos, which many other people may have linked to!).

This however sends a broader message than they intend.

It is prissy and condescending, alienating not just those who attend these protests, but the wider Australian and even international audience.

Once this "aristocratic" message is sent, it can't be unsent.

Law Of Power #4: Always say less than necessary (in this case, nothing).

Remember those bonfires of rock'n'roll and disco records?
Beware the wrath of Regular Guy.
