This isn't an isolated incident. Policing attracts violent men, and reinforces that behaviour at home and even with other cops. They have unique access to surveilance that enables harassment of victims, and a culture of protecting abusive "mates".

In Tsarist Russia, the police set up labour unions that they would control, in order to draw support away from revolutionary organisations. It didn't go as planned...

Social media platforms are removing drug warning posts alerting Australians to toxic, potentially fatal, batches of drugs circulating, and local harm reduction orgs, like AIVL, are attempting to end this algorithmic prejudice 👇 www.sydneycriminallawyers.com.au/blog/social-... @aivl.bsky.social

Police have raided the homes of four peace activists in Victoria, in the latest case of cops using searches and bail conditions to incapacitate our organisations.

Tasers are often framed as a safe or preventative tool in police responses to crisis. In situations involving flammable substances, they can instead escalate risk with fatal consequences.

Are nangs legal or not? Nitrous oxide is a widely used recreational drug in Australia, but its legal status is murky.

NSW Police have a recruitment stall for young kids at the Easter Show - why is this normalised?

The NSW Police Public Affairs Branch employs 89 people with your money, but those jobs are under threat if they cut corners with AI. Justice for police propagandists!

While Minns is trying to criminalise pro-Palestinian slogans, the cops let genuine anti-semitism slide. Minns won't even release the review of racial vilification laws that his own government commissioned - we're guessing because it doesn't support his pro-Israel agenda.

Which side are you on, Luke? Eight feminist, anti-genocide activists have been arrested after Victorian Trades Hall Council secretary Luke Hilakari called the cops on them for draping an apron on the statue of Zelda D'Aprano, and painting slogans on the ground.

We're heading to Nimbin MardiGrass! On May 1 every year, thousands of people converge to celebrate cannabis culture and campaign for law reform. www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/...

Chris Minns's goons are still harrassing people weeks after the police riot in Sydney on February 9. No cops have faced any consequences for their violence, but as the police media release notes, 16 more anti-genocide protesters have been charged since the initial round.

Why I'm anticop - there are good academic reasons to oppose the police, but for me it's personal

One thing that sucks about Bluesky as opposed to X, The Everything App, is the lack of attn to #spycops; a saga largely ignored in AUS, but which I think provides a fascinating insight into the lengths the state will go to in order to infiltrate, discredit, & disrupt 'progressive' social movements.

Protesters chanted "all cops are bastards", so the police falesly claimed they were part of the "ACAB Gang" which is as dangerous as the Hell's Angels, Crips or Bloods.

Unauthorised interception of phone or internet activity can result in a prison sentence if you're a civilian. But don't hold your breath waiting for these cops to face consequences.

Do cops just enforce the law? New AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett is lobbying for law changes, and has already set up new units to target anti-genocide activists.

#OtD 18 Mar 1834 the Tolpuddle Martyrs, members of Friendly Society of Agricultural Labourers (which was like a union) in Britain, were convicted and sentenced to 7 years penal labour in Australia for their involvement in that organisation stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9015...

In this pepper spray decontamination protocol (from @darugcountrystreetmedics on IG) you'll learn how to properly treat somebody who has been sprayed by police.

Police are murdurous babies

What should you do in this situation? NSW Police confiscated a Netanyahu "wanted" poster in Lakemba. This video talks about your rights when police issue directions. It is general information, not legal advice. Original video from @connectingthedots2025 on insta

#spycops Don't listen to @anticopofficial.bsky.social: Cops Are Tops! www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

These weapons were tested and normalised in colonial settings, such as Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong - far from public scrutiny in Britain itself. Colonised populations were treated as proving grounds for crowd control tactics later exported elsewhere.

Kelly Wilkinson was turned away from Southport police station and told to ‘cool off, give Brian a break’ while seeking help just four days before her estranged husband, Brian Earl Johnston, burned her to death in 2021, an inquest has heard.

How to protect yourself from tear gas - Let's look at the effects of tear gas, the equipment you need and ways to disable the canisters so you can stay safe from the police.

Tear gas history - it's banned in warfare, so why can police use it?

“I no longer view this organisation as worthy of my trust or community safety. I am ashamed to say I ever wore the uniform. I am particularly appalled at the level of male officer violence perpetrated on women, and the elderly."

Just when you thought NSW policing couldn't get any worse...

Either the cops are full of it, or $750,000 doesn't go as far as it used to 🤔

An inside look at the finances of content creation - what are the costs and income streams for a left wing political education channel like anticop?

Read all about the people who bashed protesters in Sydney last week. (link in comments)

Been reading some of the articles on @anticopofficial.bsky.social's website, some of its stuff i already had awareness of but I found the article about police and unions particularly interesting. If you’re into police abolishment its a website I highly suggest you give a look.

After widespread police brutality at the Sydney rally against Herzog, we need to get serious about taking on police in the streets.

Last week's police attack on protesters outside Sydney Town Hall wasn't an aberration - it was police doing what they've always done, writes Tom Raue of @anticopofficial.bsky.social www.deepcutnews.com/p/sydneys-co...

The NSW Police had a recruitment stall at Mardi Gras Fair Day, and we were there to disrupt it. #YouShouldBeACop #youshouldntbeacop

Tom from anticop joined Backchat on FBi Radio today to talk about the Sydney Herzog Rally, kettling, pepper spray and long range acoustic devices. Listen to the link in comments from 28 minutes.

We've printed hundreds of these booklets helping people facing drug posession or supply charges, thanks to a generous donation from Councillor Izabella Antinou

“Australian politicians and police take their cues from the US – so we should all be concerned,” Raue put simply.

Spotted in Surry Hills tonight near the rally against police brutality. This is a BearCat, an armoured truck. It's part of the Tactical Operations Unit (like SWAT) and appears to be the model with an extendable ramp on top.

I was just arrested at the Herzog rally at Sydney Town Hall

"Anticop was born in February 2025 from frustration with the policing of pro-Palestine rallies. 'The state has done everything it can to shut that movement down, to allow the genocide to continue, and the police are a key component,' Mr Raue says."

NEW ARTICLE - FLASHBANGS. These explosive devices are designed to overwhelm the victims’ senses. Despite being marketed as “less lethal”, they often start fires and have killed several children. Flashbangs have recently been deployed against protesters in Melbourne and Minneapolis.

The proposal was moderate: give the public an independent way to hold police accountable. The response was extreme.

Due to censorship risks and Elon Musk being how he is, we're diversifying our social media accounts. We'll still post on Instagram, TikTok, Youtube, Facebook, Bluesky and X, but we've now added UpScrolled and Threads. Please follow us over there, and share our content to help get it off the ground!

Police have threatened to use a futuristic sound cannon against anti-ICE protesters in Minnesota. So what is the long range acoustic device (LRAD), and how can you protect yourself?
