Pink Mafia outs the ‘Steve Austin Alliance’

The Steve Austin Alliance is/was a Facebook group for homophobes serving (or having served) in the Australian Army.

Or, alternatively, a Facebook group for fans of Steve Austin who also happened to be homophobes serving or having served in the Australian Army.

In either case, the well-oiled killing machine has been slow to act against the alleged members of the group–harassment of the sort engaged in by the Alliance being against The Law or Morality or The Rules of War or something–and now The Pink Mafia has outed the unruly fans of the Texas wrestling icon (who also hate fags).

Or, alternatively, YouTube has failed to close down the channel which does. Note that the channel user claims makers of the vilificatory videos also don’t like The Jews and other minorities very much:

Early in 2010, a large group of Australian Army soldiers and ex-soldiers became friends of a gay hate website aiming to victimise gays in the Australian Defence Force, especially in the Special Forces commando regiment.

In doing so, they aligned themselves with the creator of associated videos.

The sequence of linked videos and comments contains extreme racist, anti gay, anti [J]ewish, anti democracy and pro terrorism content.

Some members of this group wore uniform and carried weapons in the photos associated with the site.

It appeared to be a public, united rebellion against Army and Australian laws.

In addition to the website, targets of this group were abused through associated videos, and intimidation at home and at work…

Of course, and on the other hand, if serving Australian soldiers want to engage in a violent, pornographic Internet hate campaign against their comrades-in-arms, why shouldn’t they?

It’s a free country, after all.

Amirite?

    Great news

    Ex-Defence Force personel creator of homosexual ‘hate page’ charged

    From: AAP
    May 05, 2011 4:38PM

    A FORMER member of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) has been charged over allegedly creating a Facebook “hate page” against homosexuals.

    A 32-year-old Kareela man was arrested at Surry Hills Police Station, in Sydney, this morning and charged with a number of offences.

    In March, a major attached to the Australian army complained to police about receiving email threats about his sexuality.

    Sydney detectives launched an investigation and discovered a “hate page” on the social networking site that encouraged violence against homosexuals.

    The page also named a number of ADF employees in an attempt to out them as homosexuals.

    The Kareela man has been charged in relation to both the alleged threats against the major and the alleged creation of the Facebook page.

    He will face court on one count of using a carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence and one count of using a carriage service to threaten.

    He has been granted conditional bail to appear at Downing Centre Local Court on June 3.
