The court heard Bull was among five people who interrupted the Academy Award-winning Holocaust drama by making Nazi salutes, denying the Holocaust, and praising Adolf Hitler during the screening.

Bull also told the court he relied on Centrelink payments to support his family and said his partner was expecting their second child within days.

Bull did not apologise for his conduct during the proceedings.

Bull appeared in court wearing a black Helly Hansen polo shirt. The clothing brand has been appropriated by some far-right extremists because its prominent “HH” logo is interpreted by them as an abbreviation for “Heil Hitler.”

So this nazi and his coward friends disrupted a crowded theater by mocking the holocaust, making nazi salutes, and saying hitler was right. He shows up in a heil hitler shirt, never apologizes, says he shouldn't face punishment because he's "suffered enough being unemployable as a result of his actions," and... they say OK? This scumbag is reproducing, living off welfare, and is actively promoting genocidal hate, and the judge says "just have him do a bit of community service?"

Guys. Remember what we used to do to nazis 60 years ago? Why don't they just do that?

Carve a swastika into his forehead and we'll call it even.

The article says he was convicted to 125h of community services. It just wasn't put on his record. Or am I reading it wrong?

Rough times for Elon.

I guess you could say that the judge lacked conviction.

Alt-history is lame. Like it would ve lame to be yelling about germ theory, or how steam is superior than gasoline.

Alt-history is lame, and these WW2 revisionists are in that same category.

Well, this isn't as bad as the Poland thing, but it's still an odd thing to outlaw. (I'm not suggesting he shouldn't be lambasted in the court of public opinion, though.)

As bad as the US is at everything else, at least Freedom of Speech is still alive and well.

Well, this is disappointing

*[...] Bull argued that his political views had already damaged his ability to find work.

“It is quite difficult to get a job, obviously, because of who I am,” he told the court.

No conviction and zero remorse.
