Hm "Anti-Protest Power".... Now if that were any other country, it would be an outcry about democracy being destroyed.... The right to protest might be one of the most important pillars of democracy... :/

Yes there was an outcry in Australia but that doesn't do much to overturn these fascist laws.
The only solution is to protest. if they're not arresting you you're not protesting anyway.
Seems to me like the government of the day will abuse the shit out of these powers to shut down protests which don't align with their agenda.
