plantagenet, how many of these are Right Wing? Those with sympathies with these groups in Australia support the Greens policies. So how do you define Right Wing?

Dearest Josephus

For YOU, an American citizen, resident of Phoenix ARIZONA, I say Far-Left, Far-Right are, most probably, not legal definitions under Australian law.

If you continue to still be a good little Trump Extremist AND after Biden gets in, maybe ring your local FBI Office on:

+1 623-466-1999

and they may ask you to drop some time, at:

21711 N 7th St, Phoenix, AZ 85024, US of A.

Let your FBI determine whether your residual Extremism has violent potential.

You know, like your fellow religious?, terrorist American http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_McVeigh

plantagenet,
So anyone who holds opinions opposite to yours is a right Wing Extremist.
Got It!
For me anyone who uses thuggery as a form of control is an extremist, i.e. Victorian Police.

If you have a beef with the Victorian Police (did they turn you round at Mel Airport?

pre-extradition back to Phoenix?) please put your personal cards on the table, sir.

OLO will "listen".

When I see the way they handled two aged women sitting in a Park bench and a young woman in her home - plus, they are extreme measures.

Daniel Andrews proposed bill- "The prohibition of counselling a person applies whether or not the subject consented. The penalty is up to 10 years’ imprisonment or an enormous fine.
Complaints can be made anonymously and come “from any person”, even those not involved. In other words, it is a charter for anti-religious activists to harass and intimidate churches or individuals who speak against sexual dysphoria at no cost to the complainant.
COVID-19 became an excuse for leaders such as Daniel Andrews to flirt with authoritarianism. He has clearly acquired a taste for it. This bill betrays a government that has lost every trace of modesty. It is insensitive to the boundaries between public and private life in a liberal democracy.
It is not just church leaders who might find themselves in strife for failing to affirm a person’s sexual or gender identity. Parents are in trouble, too. The Human Rights Law Alliance warns that “parents who struggle with their 13-year-old daughter’s sudden presentation of gender confusion and who oppose chemical and surgical practices to transition appearance to that of a male, could be made criminals and face jail time”.
None of this will surprise anyone with a child in a Victorian state school where the wishes of the parent are routinely dismissed on matters of gender identity. The Victorian Education Department has created a unique category of child they call “mature minors”, students who in the opinion of a school principal or other professional can make their own decisions about gender identity without parental consent. Hence a child too young to consent to sex is considered capable of making decisions about their gender.

Pete,

I would have thought that all of the designated groups that you listed, except the Kurdistan People's Party, would have to be classified as right-wing. The KPP was probably on that list to satisfy the Turkish government, being seen (perhaps rightly) as a communist front organisation) and one which is staunchly anti-Islamist.

The Turkish government could conceivably be classified as right-wing and Islamist. Trump's abandonment of the Kurds was a step in the direction of supporting the Turks and perhaps Islamism generally. Of course, it may have been no more than a gesture on Trump's part to curry favour with the Turks in building his Istanbul Trump Towers.
