Is this a real strategy change in the Oz govt towards China or just the commentator's opinion.?Why? Are you a communist spy?

Basically take anything that guy says, drop it in shit remover, and see if anything survives.
why? why do you bother even switching it on? You have a bad heart, why deliberately make yourself angry?

I don't - the headline and the Sky banner is enough to dismiss it as anything remotely related to "journalism".

I used to watch the ABC in the morning when fasting. Nothing better to provide the anger necessary to get through the day without food.

I think every Australian should watch this and then make up their minds from there.
Any idea what the post is?
There was a couple of these sorts of incidents here in the UK a few years ago - Dankula the most famous one. Not heard anything on that for a while though - doesn't mean it's not happening, just not getting MSM coverage.

@MajorRage one figure I found, not exactly the same but similar genre of offence, recorded by police:
There were 103,379 hate crimes recorded in England and Wales in 2018-19, with increases seen in all categories of motivation.Police resources are being used to record these offences at a rate of 283 per day.
But back to the Aussie lass. I think if you explained that video to me verbally I would have left the conversation very very sceptical.
Every device in the house??!
For how long?
Arrest record?
For a facebook post? - it'd wanna be a juicy post! -

Disclaimer: I didn't watch the whole thing.
Having got that out of the way. Being in your pyjamas, pregnant, having an appointment etc. aren't valid reasons to not be arrested for a crime. The police have a search warrant we can assume is safely constructed and duly authorised by a magistrate (admittedly not a high bar). And someone looks to have found out that Facebook isn't a lawless zone where you get o to say whatever you want without consequence.

Police say the woman was arrested in relation to a social media post She was taken into custody and charged with incitement Regional Victoria is under stage 3 stay-at-home orders, and gatherings are banned "Any gathering of this nature is in blatant breach of the Chief Health Officer's directions and puts Victorian lives at risk," police said. "Those still thinking of attending the protest … can expect a swift and firm response from police. "We will have no hesitation in issuing $1,652 fines to anyone who is breaching the restrictions on the day, or making arrests if necessary."
Seems a bit over the top to me, but equally, if there is a pretty clear guidance from the authorities, you're taking things into your own hands playing around on social media.
