Muslim activist Yassmin Abdel-Magied has taken to Twitter to post about Remembrance Day - in an almost identical post to her Anzac tribute which was labelled as 'disrespectful' and 'malicious'.
The former controversial ABC host took to social media on Saturday with a simple post reading #LestWeForget.
But just a few lines down in brackets she put (Manus).

The post is almost identical to the Facebook post which landed her in trouble on Anzac Day

In April she was slammed after a similar post which read 'Lest we forget (Manus, Nauru, Syria, Palestine.'
And there was some of the same outrage the second time around.
'How dare you,' wrote one man on the post.
'I still don't think WWI remembrance should be brought into the Manus fray(didn't you say you regretted this approach last year?),' said another of her followers.
'So predictable Yassmin. Odds on to tweet that out on Rememberance day,' said another.
The Anzac Day post was quickly deleted by the former television presenter and she apologised.

'It was brought to my attention that my last post was disrespectful, and for that, I apologise unreservedly,' she said.
One of her followers tried to applaud the woman for being brave but his comment was quickly slammed by others.
'Not brave, just inflammatory and ignorant. As for insight. I’ve yet to see any display of insight, just immature ill thought out ideas aimed at hurting cultures that offered her a future instead of the oppression she’d have faced growing up in Sudan,' said one.
'Shakes head in disbelief that (Yassmin) really doesn’t get it,' said another.
'You again! You don’t get it ! So disrespectful! Hide in London silly girl , hearing your name and seeing your face disgusts me,' said another.
'So predictable Yassmin. Odds on to tweet that out on Rememberance day,' said a follower
