Good.

Gangs that conspire to harm society and individuals and carry them out are criminal.

The title is incomplete, so for those who didn't read to the near-end: (and as mentioned more in-depth in the other post)

The Coalition’s home affairs spokesperson, Jonathon Duniam, welcomed the move on Friday, and said the public did not want to see individuals avoid justice “simply by tearing down a banner and re-emerging under a different name”.

The legislation will allow the government to use regulation to capture a group that has phoenixed, rather than having to list it separately. Burke said the principle of using the regulation would be based on “whether or not they’re judged to be a continuation of the organisation”.

Good! Here in Finland we should ban fascist movements altogether, there's already a popular citizens' initiative about the subject. We should definitely criminalize the Blue-and-Black Movement and Active Club, especially after what happened in Tampere two weeks ago.

I note that this is relatively easier in Australia as we have no right to free speech.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

Conspiring to commit crimes is not covered under free speech any where.
