ABC is just pǝʞɔnɟ.

They've changed the headline, but most of the article is devoted to how bad whitey is than what's happening on the day.

On a lot of things the ABC does good reporting but the way they claim not to be biased is by auditing how much time they devote to covering political parties.

If a minister gets 15 minutes on 7:30 the shadow minister gets his reply etc etc.
What is not measurable is the tone they use and what actual stories they cover.

In that headline, for the Invasion day headline, they should have used font that's 3.3% of the Australia day headline  ;D

They can have invasion day if they want, Im happy to recreate it.

I officially call it CIVILISATION DAY.......

Why are they using those foreign names for the cities?

Wow!

the ABC have scrubbed Invasion Day from its memo...

but they had to be pushed...


a message from Jacinta Price..

Others, such as Alice Springs Deputy Mayor and Warlpiri woman Jacinta Price, say protesting the date does nothing for the plight of marginalised Indigenous Australians.

In that view, a date change is an empty gesture and that more important changes, such as a treaty, constitutional recognition, self-determination and ‘closing the gap’ should be prioritised.

Finally, there are those who believe Australia Day can be both a day of reflection on injustices suffered and a celebration.

The National Australia Day Council takes such an approach, acknowledging the date has multiple meanings: it is Australia Day for some, and it is also, for some, Survival Day.

“Our national day provides an opportunity to acknowledge and learn about our nation’s past. It’s a time to reflect on and learn about our national journey including the ongoing history, traditions and cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples.”

I would add to that Jacinta...  a reflection of exactly how we have progressed through many ups and downs   and it would not have happened without  whites commitment .. we whites are still pushing and enduring the constant attacking from aboriginals....who cannot let go of the past....they teach the children from a very young age to hate  its pretty sad.

ohh, the diddums are upset again are they? ::)

We should sell off the ABC and SBS taxpayers shouldn't be paying over $1 billion a year for this garbage.

If the lefties like it they can buy shares in it and fund it without taxpayers money.

How many invaders point their rifles at the people they bring in like the British did with convicts?

Survival Day?  I would have thought Prosperity Day more apt...

"Ey, look at this one, Errol - this one's godda roof an floor, and dat soft thing dere- dey call dat a bed...I dunno... just ask that gu'mint sheila - she give it all to us, eh?  All I said was the old humpy was gitting a bit draughty for Winter, y'know, an' she wuz right there!

The Invasion Day proponents would have us believe there was some kind of resistance like the Sioux at the Little Big Horn. The British did not invade New South Wales. They were unopposed on 26th of January 1788. The purpose was to alleviate the overcrowding of Britain's prisons. The military were there as guards. You cannot spin it any other way.

"Free Food and Booze Day" is a day for us to say "thank you" to those white people who came and saved us from a nomadic and dangerous existence, introduced us to booze (a gateway to dreamtime) and a way of life where we no longer have to do anything to survive.

Life was tough before, now we have all the essentials for life provided to us with no effort required from us.

Thank you Altjira for making Dream time an everyday event by bringing the white guys to save us day.

There was some show on last night on NIggaTV, with some guy skiting that some other guy, long ago, 'ambushed' settlers and soldiers climbing a ridge... well - one surprise ambush might give you something, but then there was the next innings - he lost by eleven wickets.....

Neither the Chinese or the Japanese were expansionist like the British (oops, sorry, like the "Britsh") were.   No one was as expansionist as the British were.   The Indigenous Australians weren't lucky, they were just fortunate there were so few of them that the British ignored them for the most part.  One only has to look at the sorry history of British colonisation of India to see what happens when the natives are noticed...  ::) ::)

I think it was inevitable that Australia would be colonized by an external power.

There were so few of them?  In such a wonderful and progressive society of one giant barbecue amongst friends in the Outback that Whartey ruined for them all?

Why was that exactly - this 'so few of them that they were ignored'?  Did life kill them off?  According to the accepted wisdom, they had an idyllic lifestyle until Whartey wrecked it for them.... so why were there so few of them?  Even the Learned Sheilas Black who pontificate on their destruction claim that Whartey caused it all.... and yet they were so few in number and now they are prosperous?

They're a tough lot, you know - there are now a higher percentage of people claiming Aboriginality in Tasmania than on the mainland.... God's Own Truth .... and they were all wiped out 174 years ago!  That's how Resilient™ they are!!

Before they got married she discussed how great this will be. A successful wannabe Aborigine breeding more to join the benefits queue. What's not to like.

You should get the priorities right as the author of this letter suggests instead of supporting divisive bs.


Quote:

Jacinta Price says- "I want to share this letter sent to me by a woman I regard as a sister. She is a true survivor and the kind of Aboriginal woman our leaders need to listen to, especially Greens Leader Di Natale!! Hear her words and please share her story!" – Letter from Aboriginal survivor - I’ve spent an hour trying to figure out how to start this letter and there’s no easy or good way to start it, I can’t pretty it up and I can’t be sensitive because I’m just so angry. Over the last few days we have seen The Greens party cause a huge division between us, Indigenous pitted against Indigenous, Black against whites in what I can say is some of the most vile and racist hate speech I’ve ever seen, those defending the Greens have played right into their hands like the puppets you are, you think you’re smart but you’re not. Have you ever read the story of The Pied piper? The Greens are the piper and you’re the rats. I see so much screaming and crying over the date, the 26th of January, the national day of Australia, Australia Day but not the correct date of the first fleet arriving, more fool you. So foolish to believe that the people crying for changing the date actually care about you? They don’t care about you! They care about division, widening the gap not closing it, a fool is easily parted from his family. Not once! Not one time have I seen The Greens or labor speak out, not once have I seen you Indigenous cohorts speak out! Not once! You have never spoken out about stopping the violence, stopping the alcoholism, stopping the child abuse and sexual assault, no, you just want to talk about how “White man” has some how oppressed you. Oppressed you? Excuse you! Most of you leading the pack are well educated, had opportunities some of us only dare dreamed about, you manipulate the mobs, especially the ones less educated or fortunate for your own selfish white hating reasons! Shame on you! Shame shame shame! I grew up in a violent alcohol fuelled family filled with some of the most abhorrent acts committed upon my mother, upon myself. My childhood wasn’t living, it was surviving from one day to the next. I don’t remember a great Christmas, a birthday that didn’t turn violent a night where I didn’t hide under my blankets hoping that he wouldn’t come into my room. That leads me to ask where were you? When I was 6 years old, yes SIX, I had my first nervous breakdown, I couldn’t take it anymore and my mind and body gave up, my soul withered and I was but a shell of my former self, but where were you? Were you speaking up for me? Were you there to stop the real oppression the real danger to my life? A lot of you were children yourself but where were the older ones? The mothers, fathers, aunts and uncles? The politicians? The outstretched hand? No you weren’t there! Where were you when I watched my mother get raped and bashed until you couldn’t recognise who she was? Where were you when he held us all hostage and tried to cut our throats? Where were you when I faced an onslaught of sexual abuse? Where were you when he chased us down and tried bashing my mothers head in with a bullroarer? Where were you when almost every night in my house something violent happened? Where were you when he’d sneak into my room like a thief in the night to steal my childhood? Where were you the first time I tried to kill myself aged 9? There’s so much more and it would take me a week to write it down, but where were you? You weren’t there and you still aren’t there! Luckily for me my grandmother was there, eventually my mother threw me away when I was sexually assaulted yet once again, this time by an “uncle” there was more than one offender that hurt me, I lost count, now that’s sad. Can you change all the dates I was hurt? You cry and you scream about changing the date while there are children like me, little boys and girls living the same life I did as a child, living in constant fear of violence and sexual abuse. No, white man didn’t oppress me, white man didn’t commit those repulsive abhorrent acts, white man failed me in the way that he failed to take me and my brother away from my mother. But we mustn’t talk about the real issues effecting the indigenous community to this day! To this very day! Is it racist to speak out? NO! You professional victims cry about a date while real victims suffer horrors only seen in nightmares or in a movie, no, that’s not accurate, the greatest horror writer on the planet would cringe if he heard my story, the story of children still suffering today. You say it’s “racist” to even speak of these issues, it’s not racism, it’s realism. I have no time for you and your virtue signalling change the date crap. Your voice is only loud when you want to play the victim. My grandmother an indigenous elder tried so hard to take me off my mother when I was a baby, but no, the authorities wouldn’t do that as it would be racist so they left me to suffer but I didn’t let that stop me, I didn’t let the abuse and poverty get in my way. Yes I did become an alcoholic when I was 13 it was easy to deal with the pain, then one day I woke up, I was 16

cont -


Quote:

- I was 16 I decided I was not going to let the past destroy my future, I swore to myself I would never turn out like my mother, but I did, for 3 brutal years I did, for 3 brutal years I’d send my babies away out of danger so it was only me, was it racism that drove the police and DOCS to threaten to take my babies if I didn’t leave? Was it racism that saw them drag him away so the kids and I could pack and flee? No, that was humanity, that was addressing the issue, racism didn’t play a part, they didn’t see colour, they seen violence and terror the only difference is there was no grog, no drugs, he did it because he enjoyed it. So while you’re sitting there with your privilege screaming about changing the date, I’ll be sitting here with no privilege except for what I’ve given to myself and I’ll be speaking out about the real issues and fighting for justice for myself and for every other child that is a mirror of me. Personally I’ll keep the date, some of the good memories I have is from that date, you see I spent most Australia Days with my nan, she would have BBQ’s where family and friends would get together and play cricket and laugh, us kids would play and play, I never wanted those days to end. My nan always taught me that it was about unity not division, she taught me not to hate, she told me stories of old passed down and from her own memories, she taught me not to hate the people of today for the sins of yesterday, my nan was all about love and without her I wouldn’t be the strong proud woman I am today. On Australia Day, celebrate don’t hate. That’s all I have to say, I’m getting too upset, the memories of the past never fade to a living victim, a real victim, but we go on, stronger louder and prouder.

I’ll nail my flag to the masthead here just so I’m not misunderstood. My view is so called Australian Day is no more than Invasion Day and should be shifted.
Having said that I want to draw attention to the romanticisation of pre-invasion Aboriginal culture still indulged in by many of today’s academics. I can best illustrate this by drawing attention to the frequently pushed delusion pre invasion aboriginal culture was some form of utopian communism. In parts of the Northern Territory tribal groups were often organised along lines similar to class lines in India today. That is ‘higher classes’ had rights the lower tribes did not. This could manifest, for instance, in 'higher class’ tribes having the right to rape those of lower groups. The absurd suggestion that Koori society was idealistic egalitarianism over all of Australia prior to invasion is a delusion.

cont - Quote: - I was 16 I decided I was not going to let the past destroy my future, I swore to myself I would never turn out like my mother, but I did, for 3 brutal years I did, for 3 brutal years I’d send my babies away out of danger so it was only me, was it racism that drove the police and DOCS to threaten to take my babies if I didn’t leave? Was it racism that saw them drag him away so the kids and I could pack and flee? No, that was humanity, that was addressing the issue, racism didn’t play a part, they didn’t see colour, they seen violence and terror the only difference is there was no grog, no drugs, he did it because he enjoyed it. So while you’re sitting there with your privilege screaming about changing the date, I’ll be sitting here with no privilege except for what I’ve given to myself and I’ll be speaking out about the real issues and fighting for justice for myself and for every other child that is a mirror of me. Personally I’ll keep the date, some of the good memories I have is from that date, you see I spent most Australia Days with my nan, she would have BBQ’s where family and friends would get together and play cricket and laugh, us kids would play and play, I never wanted those days to end. My nan always taught me that it was about unity not division, she taught me not to hate, she told me stories of old passed down and from her own memories, she taught me not to hate the people of today for the sins of yesterday, my nan was all about love and without her I wouldn’t be the strong proud woman I am today. On Australia Day, celebrate don’t hate. That’s all I have to say, I’m getting too upset, the memories of the past never fade to a living victim, a real victim, but we go on, stronger louder and prouder. https://caldronpool.com/aboriginal-woman-pens-powerful-letter-divisive-australians/?fbclid=IwAR266bPm0WSDzSriP3jgx3WxijgeDQYzTTWHWjn8CVqRmrTeOfQUKR6uNl8

You ought to read the statements from the series of victims of that asshole who bashed a family member at Xmas.  They would shock you as much as this one.

You don't really work in any area of 'preventing violence to Aboriginal women and children', do you, mothra.  You cannot be for real with your supercilious bullshit about how wonderful and down-trodden the Indigenous are.

NOBODY who works on behalf of the battered would defend the perpetrators of such evil.

Now is, well now, Gnads.  The Chinese have had periods of expansion just as they have had periods of contraction.  The Chinese are feeling their way in the modern world.  If they were truly expansionist you'd see them landing at Bondi from ships that have sailed up from China.  Are they?  Stop being alarmist.   ::) ::)

The Portuguese were a contender problem was they looked only at the Top End and didn't find enough to interest them.  East Timor was as close as they came to Australia and that was a very minor outpost.  Saint Francis Xavier apparently saw the smoke from bushfires over the southern horizon when he visited Timor but not even evangelism was a strong enough driver to make them visit.   Their empire was in decline when Cook arrived at the South East coast, Cods.  The British Empire was on the rise.

The Dutch were another contender but their empire was also declining, being defeated by the British.  Then you have Spain but they were primarily interested in the New World, not Oceania.  France is the only major one left and they were interested, in a desultory way in the idea of "Empire".  Problem was, they had a Revolution and that took up most of their energies.   The British just shipped most of their revolutionaries out to foster their empire.   Were you once a revolutionary, Cods?   ::) ::)

Look, Johnny 'two planks*' Smith chips (!) in! And he's astonished.


Although first recorded in the nineteenth century in the literal sense of ‘awake, not (or no longer) asleep’, figurative use of woke has been traced back to 1962 in a glossary of ‘phrases and words you might hear today in Harlem’. This glossary accompanies a New York Times article titled ‘If you’re woke, you dig it’ by novelist William Melvin Kelley. In it he discusses the constantly shifting street slang used in urban African-American communities and provides the following definition of woke:

Well-informed, up-to-date, (‘Man, I’m woke’).

1962 New York Times Magazine, 20 May, pg. 45

come on red  bri bri  admits the ABC is biased in his direction..thats why he loves them for what they do....

and now your calling bobs and idiot....why do you look down from your lofty height on bobs.. he just has an opinion like everyone else one here..

All government funded western channels appear to be leftie goodie goodies channels.

I think it is the nature of who gravitates to public funded institutions. They bring their natural bias with them.

It will always been the way.

I think there is no solution really. if they didn't recognize "Invasion Day" they would be called insensitive to this movement. The leadership, Ita needs to stop trying to be PC.

What we don't want is government interference in the ABC. Then we get RT.
If they are free to state BS, we get Fox.

Tsk, tsk.

In the 15th century Portuguese sailors made extensive maps of Australia's east coast. But because two Papal Bulls issued on May 3 & 4 of 1493, which concerned the division of the undiscovered world between Spain and Portugal would have required them to surrender these maps to Spain, the Portuguese chose to conceal them.

The original maps were lost in an earthquake and fire in the 18th century but records still exist.

The reason we aren't speaking Portuguese is because of Pope Alexander V1.

bri   thinks his degrees   cover everything!..... ;D ;D ;D ;D

hes been studying Cuba for years   yet didnt know they sold blood to Nth  Vietnam during the Vietnam War..

the blood taken from people they were going to kill....
all very business like...



Cuba and (North) Vietnam established diplomatic relations in 1960, and Castro visited Vietnam three times. His famed 1973 wartime visit can be read about here. He even apparently said in 1973 that ‘for Vietnam, Cuba is willing to donate blood’. This wasn't entirely accurate, as they sold it rather than donating it; a Wall Street Journal article quotes a 1967 report from the InterAmerican Human Rights Commission saying that the blood of Cuban political dissidents was extracted before they were shot. The blood was then sold to Vietnam at ‘fifty dollars per pint with the dual purpose of obtaining hard currency in dollars and contributing to the Vietcong communist aggression’. A lengthier account can be read here.

1850s-70s
A Long and Dangerous Journey
1850s Sailing Clipper illustrated by Bill Wood


For those who travelled to Australia in the nineteenth century, the journey was often long and dangerous. In calm weather a sailing ship might take as long as four months, while a well-run clipper ship with favourable winds could make the journey in a little over half this time. These ships represented the pinnacle of sailing ship technology. With their streamlined hulls and acres of sail designed to catch even the slightest breeze, clippers were built primarily for speed.

The question is - why are you a stinker?   Bias versus unbias is the question, stinking turd.

1. Unbiased
2 who is unbiased.

As you were, turd - bobbing in the s bend.

The ABC is just a load of schit on this issue.

6pm news on radio 702 went something like this,
many people have boycotted Australia Day celebrations and joined invasion day protests etc etc. That was it.

No mention that millions upon millions had BBQs, went to the beach and farqing well celebrated it. My plan was to go to a harbour beach so left at 845am, couldn't get even close, they were jam packed with literally thousands of people celebrating and ended up doing a plan B.

And no mention that most of the formal events have been cancelled due to WuFlu and not boycotted.

The ABC is breaking it's charter buy pushing the personal agenda of staff and not reporting what's actually happening.

Gaven Morris, the director of news at the ABC, told staff they were too focused on the interests of "inner-city left-wing elites"

I worked with a bloke back in the mid-80s who reckoned we should give each aboriginal $50,000 and send them into the Simpson Desert to live.  ;D

Except the violence toward women pre-1788 couldn't be palmed off on whitey.

The truth is Aboriginal people seem predisposed towards domestic violence. The addition of alcohol has also been disastrous for them.

Just another group of disgruntled individuals... wonder why they're disgruntled at all, eh? Why could they possibly be biased under such a benevolent system of governance.... can't they see that everything done to them was for the greater good of the nation etc???

Honey - a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do..... and if that sweet little thing is right there in front of you... well... I challenge any red-blooded man to just walk away ....

The majority of early convict settlers were men - what do you want them to do?  All become gay?

You can't just go on blaming Whitey for your own failings..... you do the crime, you do the time, and if you don't like it, and want to 'do things your way' - as that dopey sheila in Malbadishu said - then keep on with the woman bashing and the child rape and so forth.

Did she consider that 'doing things their way' meant she would likely be bashed and raped and abused?  Dumb as dog schitt, and without the fat protection of Whitey she would be nothing and nobody.

All those dumbass Whiteys who marched for the Abos - hope you live with them once you hand them the reins of power.  I'll be leading the revolt.....

Well explain why you think its Invasion Day or why the date should be shifted & what difference that shift will make to the whinging activists or to the real issues affecting Aboriginal communities?

Well - every day is a triggered day for the perpetually and professionally aggrieved. Calling people triggered is the new tactic to denigrate anyone who raises any issue. Same as calling someone racist, xyzophobe. The woke left invented being actually triggered. and calling people woke is not an attempt to denigrate?  ;D ;D ;D your stupidity is astonishing.

The term has been around since the 1940's.... a negro word/idiom for being awake not asleep to something.


Quote:

1962 - If You’re Woke You Dig It: No mickey mouse can be expected to follow today’s Negro idiom without a hip assist. ;D

It's meaning has changed to  “the act of being very pretentious about how much you care about a social issue”.

A perfect descriptor of you, Mothballs, Peccar & ScaboffaRock.

"Stay Woke" is an idiom used by activists everywhere especially BLM........ the woke describing themselves as "woke".  ::)

And Barnacle ..... "the Woke are the Snowflakes".

Life was tough before, now we have all the essentials for life provided to us with no effort required from us. Thank you Altjira for making Dream time an everyday event by bringing the white guys to save us day. Not all beer and skittles, Super. As the person previously known as Lois O'Donohue told us, domestic violence was unknown before the 'invasion'. How on earth does she know that? The first settlers were horrified by the scars, disfigured limbs and missing teeth of the aboriginal women.

 
Just trips to the beauty parlor -  ;D

crack over the head with a Nulla Nulla - left with a withered arm & a limpy leg(like a stroke victim) - in modern times the Nulla Nulla was replaced with a beer bottle or a glass flagon - same result, that's why alcohol in glass receptacles has been banned in most communities.

smash a rock, a branch or a fist into the face and knock out their front teeth.

If you watch any stories on remote communities you will see many of the women have no front teeth, their lips are heavily scarred from being split open as are their eyebrows.

Some may have traditional tribal body scarring as do men. But that's becoming less & less.

Here we go. Others said changing the date of Australia Day was not enough and the whole celebration should be axed. Another made a demand that stopped people in their tracks – $1 million for each and every Indigenous Australian. https://www.news.com.au/national/australia-day-police-vow-crackdown-on-invasion-day-protests-across-the-country/news-story/7c1abc3c0672086fdeae0c57a6f0fc83

The ATSI Budget is around $34 billion every year - increases with CPI  ;D

That's $48,500 each across 700,000 people - approx.

The Age Pension is only $24,554 per year

$1 million each = $700 billion  ;D ;D ;D

The usual utter confusion of the apologists for everything but Old White Men.

They call me racist and misogynist for stating simple truths... I doubt they'd know the difference.

What's 'racist' about trying to encourage coons to stop bashing and killing one another and stand on their own two feet like men for a change?

What's 'misogynist' about trying to give women GENUINE equality and not a free run at everything?

Because they are potential leaders, perhaps?  Revolution flows from above, Graps.  Every revolutionary leader was before the revolution began, a member of the old ruling oligarchy.  All of them became revolutionary leaders because they could envision alternatives.  The old ruling oligarchy's leaders could not.  Some revolutions have turned out for the good, some were bloody, some were quiet.  Why do you assume they were all the same?  ::) ::)

Well - if they act like coons, smell like coons, and beat their missus like coons - I suppose they are coons.

Nothing racist about calling a spade a spade... and calling out the ones who do wrong as some for of 'right' or Entitlement™  ....

Ahhhhh

But you are not allowed to mention the inconvenient truth.

Highest level of DV in any demographic..........the award goes to the abbos

Highest level of unemployment of any demographic.........the award goes to the abbos

Highest level of pedophile child molestation of any demographic........the award goes to the abbos

Highest level of grubberment assistance of any demographic........the award goes to the abbo

The highest level of entitlement for doing nothing.........the award goes to the abbo

What have they done in 200 years that has been of any note or advantage to society?

Guess we will have to wait another 200 years when all Australians will find a way to identify as abbos and see.

Wish I could get on the gravy train.

Become a Pascorigine.. never looked back since he took up that kangaroo skin... built an entire career on it and appears on national TV and holds a 'professorship' at Sydney Higher Institute of Technology... or whatever they choose to call it these days...

There's room for everyone on that boat - look at the Tasorigines - far higher percentage of 'Aborigines' in Tasmania than EVERYWHERE else in Australia!!  What a comeback after being wiped out in 1846...... talk about Resilient™ - mind you - north eastern Tasmania has the highest rate of mental illness in Australia as well.

Just saying......

Sounds like a plan.

If every Australian identified as abbo

Would the grubberment try to limit the numbers

Or simply keep handing out what they do now?

Worth exploring further.

If you continually use Racist epitaphs to describe people, particularly after you have been informed many times that they are Racist, it can only mean that you are Racist in your attitudes.  Rather like your anti-feminism attitude.  It just marks you down as a fool or a troll.  Personally I think you're the latter.  Tsk, tsk.   ::) ::)

There is an old saying

You shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you.

If They keep snapping
If They keep insulting
If They keep putting the blame on people who have done nothing wrong.
If they keep demanding and giving nothing back.

People who they use as targets will stop helping them

The billions we throw at them will be questioned and hopefully stopped.

Sympathy will stop and they may finally get to see exactly what true racism is.
