A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules

Follow the aussie.zone rules
We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

There were no consequences for the cops that did it during the 2020 protests, so why would this time be different?

One journalist even died from her injuries and nobody even got named for that one.

The cops are hopeful that they won't have to go another 5 years without regularly shooting journalists and women in the back for fun.
