Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour.  Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

You said "I could know nothing but would still know 4 times what you pretend to know". In other words, if I pretended to know nothing, you would genuinely know nothing... but 4 times over. So, for all the times I act disingenuous, you are being delusional for 4 times that amount.

Dude, I have been drunk the last time I responded to this topic. And I still made more sense than you.

Are you seriously trying to say that early indigenous people (even in their tens of thousands) did not make an impact on the numbers of megafauna, 40,000 years ago that helped lead to the megafauna's extinction? I do agree that the climate change would have been the main reason for the extinction. But, with few megafauna in existence after a massive population drop, humans would have hunted the rest to extinction.


You're dreaming.

Read the article/link I posted you idiot. Roll Eyes

You have no credibility in your assumptions about Aboriginal impacts on the extinction of megafauna.

Your Certificate 2 in dishwashing doesn't make the cut.

Bloody traitors to their own people - reaching some mythical standard set by Wharte Men to become an 'iron man' .... Wharte Man's way again.... cultural genocide that is...  should be a Black Iron Man comp - run up the bills... swim in a river of cash from royalties and such ... go ten rounds with the missus - run for the rest of your life..

From the link you posted: Fossil discoveries reveal the cause of megafauna extinction

Quote:
“Instead, we do find that their extinction is coincident with major climatic and environmental deterioration both locally and regionally, including increased fire, reduction in grasslands and loss of freshwater. Together, these sustained changes were simply too much for the largest of Australia’s animals to cope with.”


Quote:
“No doubt humans would have hunted megafauna and had it for dinner. But these new results show that humans alone didn’t drive megafauna to extinction; climate and environmental change was also a big driver.”


What we have here is a concession that humans did have an impact on megafauna numbers. The megafauna were hunted by humans. There is also an issue about the use of fire that changed the regional topography. Indigenous people used fire to drive animals out of the forests to be hunted more accessibly. Estimations differ. But humans are thought to be accountable for 90% of all extinctions that have happened in Australia for all time.

It seems my education from my Certificate 2 in dishwashing has more credibility than your Bandwagon logical fallacies. Even your own link has supported my argument.
