I didn’t realise these kind of culture war astroturfing regressive religious groups were this active in Australia. I hope there is something we can do at a societal level to prevent this escalating.

• Antivaxxers
• Sovereign Citizens
• White supremacists
• Anti Trans “protesters” (making threats to libraries)
• Religious “mothers” groups banning books

I’m happy for people to have their beliefs but these things all feel like they are being done cynically by dark forces that want to change the fabric of our society - Or maybe I am off with the fairies, I don’t know sometimes.

Am I alone in thinking that? What can we do about it?
