International Smash Shit Up Day:
Contradictory reports about the anti-capitalist rallies in Melbourne;
a 3RRR announcer this morning, quoting
International Socialist/M1 officials, has painted a picture
of a sea of red flags, and about 10,000 people attending; meanwhile, the
PM edition of the Herald-Scum (the local Murdoch) said it was an abject
failure, with only 300 people attending and no protests outside the Nike store.
(I walked past the Nike store; it was closed and boarded up, with a phalanx
of police out the front, presumably to ensure that protesters don't graffiti
the boards.) Meanwhile, the wheels of capitalism keep turning as the
stock exchange trades as normal.
