A man who allegedly incited racial violence calling for a rally at the beach scene of race riots 20 years ago has been refused bail.

Ryder Roy Shaw, 20, appeared before Gosford Local Court on Monday accused of a “violent call to action” on TikTok, urging protesters to gather at Cronulla Beach in Sydney’s south later in the week.

The court was told Shaw appeared to be a “Muslim hater” who posed a serious risk to community safety after allegedly organising the gathering days after the Bondi massacre, in which 15 people were killed by two gunmen apparently inspired by Islamic State ideology.

The post circulating online had called for “wog” and “Middle East” bashing at Cronulla beach on Sunday, 20 years since infamous race-fuelled riots there.

More than 100 people were arrested during the December 11, 2005, riots, which followed a text message circulating among locals that called on “Aussies” to show “Lebs and wogs” they weren’t welcome after growing tensions at the beach.

Police arrested Shaw at Narara, on the NSW Central Coast, about 1.40pm on Sunday.

He has been charged with using a carriage service to menace, harass, offend and publicly threaten violence on grounds of race or religion.

Senior prosecutor Felicia Lay opposed any type of bail conditions on Monday, telling the court Shaw had a risk of committing further serious offending.

She noted the post allegedly encouraged and advertised the potential bashing of community members.

Lay said given the climate following the December 14 terror attack, any bail conditions could not be mitigated.

Defence lawyer Brian Quinn told the court Shaw had no prior criminal history, and he would consent to handing over his social media and phone if bail was granted.

Quinn pointed to Shaw’s age, noting he was self-employed and that his partner would have to give up her job if he remained behind bars.

Magistrate Margaret Quinn refused the bail application, telling the accused that he appeared to be a “Muslim hater”.

Any post that incited people to turn to violence over race or religion was “repulsive”, she said.

“I don’t know whether that young man who killed all those people in Bondi had a [criminal] record either,” Quinn said.

She said there was no question that Shaw posed a risk to the safety of people in the community by allegedly creating the post, particularly at a time when feelings were running high against people of all races.

He is due back in court on February 20.

NSW Premier Chris Minns said on Monday that anyone seeking to whip up racial hatred, violence or division in the community would be met by police.

“There is zero tolerance for it right now,” he said.
