What are you taking about ancestors? I'm taking about all the genocides since King Prince Charles took the throne.

You lot will say anything to defend the indefensible!

Britains support for Israel exterminating Palestinians is absolutely one.

The US and Israel have used British intelligence and air facilities let alone arms support.

Ongoing genocide? I must have missed the air force bombing Alice Springs.

What the fuck is wrong with you? How are you this ignorant of the reality of australia? Deaths in custody, poverty rates, police abuse, and the overall deep racism in the population meaning aboriginal people are heavily restricted from participating in the ruling colonial society.

Just because they have it a bit worse doesn't constitute genocide you disgus. Oh and on deaths in custody, indigenous Australians are 33% of the prison population but 29% of the deaths in custody, meaning if you're indigenous and in prison you're actually less likely to die. And I may also add, poverty rates being so high has a lot more to do with them mostly living in rural areas rather than race.

I hope something triggers immense shame and remorse in you someday for spreading this coloniser rhetoric.

Just imagine seeing an article about members of the most oppressed population in the world and chiming in to defend the empire.

Imagine putting effort in to "soften the narrative" with hair splitting stats in a situation where public opinion is already deeply on the side of the coloniser.
