I'm all for people doing whatever they need to do to stay sane after dealing with traumatic events. One of my buddies told stories regularly similar to Scojo (though with less disdain for the locals), and another specifically did not ever really want to discuss what happened over there. Everyone deals with things in their own way. I don't think there is a 'right' or 'proper' way of dealing with traumatic events. That said, it doesn't excuse literal war crimes. How they deal with things in the present does not change what they did in the past to cover up shootings of civilians.

Anti-SLAPP doesn't stop these lawsuits from being filed. It also doesn't necessarily keep the costs low as was the intention. It can still cost $15k+ to resolve litigation through Anti-SLAPP and even if you're awarded your Attorney's fees it can still be a year or more before the litigation is over and you can even begin hope to get your money back. Anti-SLAPP is great at protecting people who are already not discouraged by the cost of litigation, but quite a bit less so for those who can't afford to drop 25-50% of their yearly income on a stressful lawsuit.

People like this have no business calling themselves "diggers".

It's time there are laws specifically made for whistleblowers that judges can use to protect them in special cases where the public need outweighs the crime that was done in order to get the information to the public.

[@oight]

@@42ZaphodB42 if the country is imperialistic, then they are never going to make such a law that protects whistleblowers that are exposing serious crimes by their government. yet they will cheer on whistleblowers as brave if it's from a country they don't like/want to topple. usually the whistleblowing is because the people they've exposed were not abiding by these laws. they certaintly aren't abiding by international law either. that's clearly not the issue here.

I grew up in Canberra living near to and amongst all the armed forces people and their brats. The people who really really wanted to see combat are absolute psychos and Australia has not actually been threatened by an outside force for so long- they join wanting to kill people, that's it. Other people join for some other benefits and generally do their best to do their job, get out and move on with their life, some of them but effort in to also helping veterans get jobs outside of the military afterwards. Reflecting on a podcast with relish about your job killing people is sociopath behaviour that they wanted to do going in.
