Stralya Day

[brian ross]

26 January - leave it to NSW.
1 January - Yes!

Why are you in favour of decisive yet empty gestures rather than things that would actually improve the lives of Aborigines?

Why do you consider it an "empty gesture"? I regard it as bringing Australian society together, removing conflict. Do you like conflict in our society, Gordon? I don't.

Lets say they change the day, nothing will actually change.
5 year old Aboriginal kids will still be diagnosed with chlamydia, they'll still have 4 times the rate of diabetes, still live in squalor.

I'd prefer any academically bright Aboriginal kids be given 6 years of board and tuition at a good private school in the city.
Do that for a 1000 kids every year and their society will start to transform.

Why not do both? Are you incapable of keeping two thoughts in your head at once, Gordon? I suspect so...

Because one is a totally useless and empty gesture, and why do you have to take such a condescending tone?

Except it hasn’t be held on the same day every year for 200 years..

It isn't like sharing a house either if you want to get technical, you triggered little bitch.
Perhaps you should try not disregarding history and disrespecting tradition by making stupid fucking analogies in an attempt at some kind of point? In any case, as you lot of malcontents will continue to snivel no matter what day it is, you can go fuck yourself and continue to do the oppressed little bitch grievance monkey dance.

Either way, I don't give a flying fuck what you want or what you think you're entitled to.
I'll continue to celebrate Australia Day on the 26th and there is fuck all you knob jockeys can do about it.

Because you're a nasty Racist who deserves to be looked down upon, Gordon. As for it being an "empty gesture," I don't think it would be for the people concerned, just as the Apology for the Stolen Generations wasn't an "empty gesture" either.

It's really very simple

If the abbos and their retarded mates feel so strongly about the "invasion" and subsequent civilization of the country.

Perhaps they should refuse any and all moneys handed over by the invaders

They should refuse the free housing, the abbstudy, the special benefits the free land and all the hundreds of other little things they get.

They should start afresh and only use what they themselves earned and paid for.

They should accept no aid and simply excel as individuals.

But we all know that's never going to happen, don't we?

Abbos live in a world of lazy, greedy victim mentality.
Continually finding excuses for their own laziness
Continually demanding, like a spoilt child
Wanting but rarely earning.

They destroy what the get
Simply because they have not earned it.
They have zero respect for themselves and everything they are given.
Because they have not worked for it

While they continue like this
They will never be respected
They will never gain favor other than by those desperately wanting to cash in on the victim mentality industry.

The aboriginal culture is dead
Sold to the God of lazy money and stupidity.

You must mean it encouraged the marxists to keep up the adoption and abuse of minorities as useful idiots for their own agenda, so it wasn't an empty gesture for marxists. You wouldn't presume to speak for all Aboriginals, would you Bribri?

Seems it has done nothing to help child sexual abuse and high levels of domestic violence within their communities being as rampant as ever. Not that it's any surprise. The left are nothing but empty, useless gestures and virtue signalling before they move onto the next shiny new devisive bauble dangled by the socialist marxist elite. Even they recognise their support base are the political equivalent of goldfish.

To divert from their useless gesturing would mean, rather than simply encouraging divisiveness, tribalism, chanting slogans and demanding 'rights', they'd have to think about responsibilities and we all know responsibilities are an anathema to the left. They wouldn't want to actually solve a problem or be productive. That would empower their pet victims and they can't have them getting off their leash.

Here's another little inconvenient truth for the "Invasion Day" numpties ...

January is here and the invasion versus settlement debate is back making news headlines.

The Prime Minister wants to keep Australia Day as it is while the Greens are calling for the date to be changed.

We've all heard the generic talking points.

Team 'Invasion Day' says 26 January is offensive to some Australians.

Team 'Australia Day' says 26 January is a day for all Australians regardless.

Yet there is a fundamental point which goes to the heart of this debate that literally no one, to date, seems to have picked up on. Hence, this article.

Native title can only exist if Australia was settled, not invaded.

Why? Because international law recognises territories acquired through invasion and annexation by force, prior to the prohibition of war following World War II, as lawful conquests.

Provided that all citizens of a lawfully conquered territory are granted equal rights by the local law, the descendants of the conqueror and the conquered are not considered two separate peoples.

This in turn invalidates any claims to separate land rights under the same jurisdiction.

As one of the 193 member states of the United Nations, Australia is not exempt from this 'Right of Conquest'.

Yet we do recognise separate land rights because the historic Mabo Decision in 1992 rested on the correct presumption that Australia was settled, not invaded.

In their ruling, Justices Brennan, Deane, Gaudron, Toohey, Mason and McHugh acknowledged that native title could have been intentionally extinguished by the use of government powers, but wasn't.

They proceeded to reject the 'terra nullius' doctrine without overturning the traditional view that the Australian landmass had in fact been settled.

Had Australia actually been invaded, the descendants of its native population would be classified as a conquered people and their land rights would be abolished.
