Some asking about who these #COVIDIOTS at the Shrine of Remembrance are, how they've organised this etc. The #AntiMelbourneProtests are planned in closed Facebook Groups. Small thread (and thank you to my wonderful informant) 👇
The groups heavily feature Qanon conspiracy theories, e.g. New World Order, vampire celebrities, kids in tunnels. Recently Facebook has been removing the groups and many are moving underground to Telegram. Telegram is infamous for its use by ISIS to plan and coordinate attacks.
The groups have fetishised about violently attacking and killing Victorian politicians. Media are believed to have members in the groups who monitor chats to get scoops on date/time/locations of protests when they drop, however, the Qanon/violent discussions are never reported.
