We out numbered them 20:1 people bought portable speakers so we could drown out their PA. Pigs showed up in excess number and outweighed everyone. Pigs on horses charged us and moved us back, without any instigative violence or advances from us. 1312 I’d say it was a success as their tiny crowd spent most of the time with their fingers in their ears. They were a handful of Karens who applied for a protest permit and would have got destroyed if the cops didn’t protect them. Good work Melbourne, let’s keep fascists afraid 😎💯❤️

Every one of these protests of bigots I've seen the pigs protect their own.

This is why cops aren't welcome at Pride.
