Americans stunned by ‘report antisocial behaviour’ sign at Taylor Swift’s concert

As we remember the beautiful singer, Taylor Swift is on her world tour and recently she was performing in Australia and each of her concerts have been a success, making hundreds of thousands of people, have the opportunity to chant the songs of the famous artist. Taylor Swift’s amazing concerts in Australia have been compared to Beatlemania, but a simple sign seen in the background of Swift’s show at the MCG in Melbourne has gone viral for all the wrong reasons.

That’s how a series of photographs featuring a “report anti-social behavior” sign at Taylor Swift’s concert in Melbourne went viral lately. Footage from Taylor Swift’s recent concert at the MCG in Melbourne has gone viral after American fans noticed a surprising sign in the background. The captured video shows Swift in the foreground, captivating fans with her music, while in the background a sign can clearly be seen on the stadium seats that reads “report anti-social behavior” with a phone number to call or text. These signs, present at major sporting venues in Australia for more than a decade, are designed to help the public report offensive fan behavior during sporting events.

However, some surprised U.S. users on social media believe these signs have less to do with maintaining order at sporting events and more to do with a sort of “police state” in Australia. Many online users shared their opinion stating that “Australia is a police state” while other users shared “how creepy it is.”

Online reaction also included comparisons to communist regimes and criticism of Australia’s gun control laws. Despite being considered a stable democracy, criticism has been circulating online in the U.S. for some time now calling Australia a “police state.”

Controversies over the “police state” posters aside, Taylor Swift’s successful run of concerts in Australia continued without a hitch, culminating at Sydney’s Accor Stadium on Monday night. What do you think about it?
