I watched live stream of Wednesday's Melbourne demonstration, by several thousand, for a few hours, including when they marched downtown and after a few kilometers, parked themselves at steps of large government building, and were then surrounded by military, military police and local police, along with mini tanks and the usual offensive urban warfare weapons of mass destruction.
It was mostly men, mostly under 50 years old -- but not all men.
In fact, women also spoke while the storm troopers were eyeing them.
My take is that, since the women are now involved, actively, the Australian and/or Victoria government is already defeated, whether they know it or not.
One woman in particular was not only fearless and well spoken, she inspired courage in all of us.
While I was watching I did not detect any big media or smaller media who do this for a living covering this. . . and one reason is they have utterly failed the people as well.

"While I was watching I did not detect any big media or smaller media who do this for a living covering this. . . and one reason is they have utterly failed the people as well."
For a few hours, news helicopters were forbidden from flying over the Melbourne CBD to film the demonstrations:
***
"No-fly zone enforced over CBD
"At the request of Victoria Police, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority declared Melbourne's CBD airspace a no-fly zone on Wednesday afternoon [22Sep2021], preventing news television helicopters from capturing footage of the protests.
"The no-fly zone covers a radius of three nautical miles from the CBD. Police helicopters are still allowed.
"Director of Policy at the Institute of Public Affairs Gideon Rozier slammed the move, saying it was an attack on freedom of speech.
" 'A very important line has been crossed here. Victoria Police are censoring the broadcast media. This is the definition of police state behaviour,' he said.
"Mr Rozier said media organisations should seek injunctions over the tactic.
"This is a desperate move by an inept force," he said.
"Victoria Police is censoring the media because it knows that it is not only losing control of this situation, it is losing the goodwill of the community."
"In response to criticism over the ban on media helicopters, Deputy Commissioner Guenther said it came into force due to live media footage being used by protesters to locate officers.
"He said Victoria Police reviewed the decision and amended it, allowing footage to be captured with the caveat that it only be broadcast an hour after filming.
" 'It actually threatened our members' safety, so I was completely supportive of the command decision,' he said.
" 'But as supportive as I am, we've seen that change on review, which should help the media get the footage that they require.'
