"There’s nothing that exposes simpering do-gooder liberals and hack Labor politicians for the craven sycophants for power they are like a good police riot. Not any old police riot, of course. If the police beat up protesters in Hong Kong or Russia, it’s deeply disturbing police-state behaviour, and every decent person is wholly on the side of the brave young people whose heads are being cracked in. But if it happens here in Victoria, Dan Andrews’ wonderland of performative progressivism, it’s a different story altogether."
