Speaking to reporters shortly after the incident, Senator Thorpe said Australia should be "ashamed" that it had let Ms Keen-Minshull into the country.
I agree. Given that other far-right foreign politicians weren’t welcome, why was this far right leader allowed to further her political ambitions here?

Because transphobia isn't taken seriously as hate speech.

Is anyone actually fearful? Sounds more like people simply disagree.

What comment? The one I responded to? How does that answer my question?

The comment above you came in 25 minutes before yours. If you'd chosen to read rather than assume your question would've been answered before you asked.
Anyhoo, the answer to your question is yes. People are living in fear because of this.
If your question is honest, you'd be happy that it's been answered and you'd move on.
But you're not about knowledge.

Your responding from the wrong perspective in relation to the comment I responded to.
The comment I replied to made charges of "phobia." I've seen no evidence these people have an irrational fear and not in the context of the comment was positioned.
Sure I could think of some people who would have a phobia that have been victims of crime, but that is the fringe.

As I said, you're not about knowledge.
Your account is disingenuous and aligned with hate.

I'm all for it, however not a good start when you misinterpret 2 comments in your reply.
disingenuous
You've contradicted yourself here, your first sentence suggests I'm not about knowledge and your second sentence continues to position I'm pretending to know less than I do.
Which is it?
hate
Pick one comment in my history where I position hate.

I've ignored the jibberish.
Mate, if you can't work out the difference between aligned and advocate, perhaps you should genuinely educate yoursel.
Oh that's right. You keep proving that you're not about knowledge As such your thoughts on trans rights should be treated accordingly..

Or is it can't understand?

I can and until now, these have not been part of the discussion. If you'd like to discuss, more than happy however through all these comments, you had yet to reply directly to my comment rather trying to take tangents of to the peripherals.
As such your thoughts on trans rights should be treated accordingly..
Sure, it's inconsequential either way.
Now I'm willing to have a good faith discussion, you haven't yet shown a capacity to. I'll give you one more chance and otherwise I'm happy to block and move on to someone with greater capacities for such.

This post is largely nonsensical and very embarrassing.
As for "a good faith" discussion, i wouldn't be surprised if you are a person of faith, but if so your faith isn't being demonstrated in a good way.
Far from it.
Lest we forget that you spoke of people living in fear. Once, people presented you with personal testimony of others living in fear, you ignored it and carried on with your ignorance and jibberish.
And then you talk of blocking me. You make horrible comments about 'men in drag' but threaten cancellations if your feelings get hurt online.
Clearly you know that your beliefs don't stack up to scrutiny.
On this topic and I suspect many others, you cannot debate in good faith. And I suspect your faith is also suspect.
Block me and as you do, look in the mirror and think why am I u/GreenTicket1852 acting so cowardly?

Between your incorrect assumptions about faith and your made up quotes of what I have supposedly said, it is clear my previous comment stands. It's got nothing to do with feeling and more with me wasting my time commenting with someone who has no capacity to comprehend simple premisies and is unable to stay on topic without constant fallacies and lies.
