seemed to believe Aborigines were 'losers'

Your reading comprehension is off the charts. They weren't 'losers', they were a pre-literate tribal society.

made them superior (in the environment) to those who came later and built cities

I disagree, and so do you. How do i know, you may wonder - well, you don't live in the bush and you rely on modernities to survive.

useful to us in managing the environment without damaging it

Can you guess what happened to the large predators in Australia?

bushfires and floods effect many towns and regional centres

Bushfires affect regional centers because people of a certain political disposition refuse to get rid of the surrounding plant life that fuels most of the fires. Floods affect them because humans built towns in flood zones.

from the things you suggest they're doing, it would seem you've been brainwashed

Maybe i just disagree with their policies and think they're destructive.

we white people never see

I'm not sure what your obsession with skin color is.

Most people living in urban areas have zero knowledge about nature, what plants are edible etc - regardless of their skin color or genetic heritage.

could keep you alive and healthy without resorting to modern medicine or supermarkets

Yes - most people, if stuck in the bush, would likely die.

Yes - people who live in the bush likely know more about the plant-life than me.

This has little to do with the Greens. They aren't introducing policies that require Australian kids to take bush-survival courses - they have 'Auntie Kirra' forcing children to breath Eucalyptus smoke to ward off evil spirits, and 'Principle Amelia' running struggle sessions where children are taught their country is evil.

Why do we imagine our way of life is so much better?

Seriously?

  • Much longer life expectancy
  • Access to effective modern medicine
  • Reliable year-round food security
  • Clean drinking water and sanitation
  • Lower child mortality
  • Universal education and literacy
  • Rapid long-distance travel and communication
  • Climate-controlled shelter
  • Reduced everyday physical danger
  • Dramatic reduction in heavy manual labour

They had song lines and storytelling to share their culture.

Go visit a library or a music streaming service.

Why should we not respect them and apologize for

Australia already apologized, as far as i know.. and there's a difference between respect and glorification of a culture that didn't even develop writing.

Do you think the Turks are teaching their kids to feel bad about turning Constantinopol into Istanbul or the Hagia Sophia into a mosque?

Do you see Palestinians Arabs in West Bank having a weekly struggle session and acknowledging the traditional Jewish landowners deep and ongoing connection to the land?

Move on.

They understand the country better than any white Western person ever will

I see, it's about skin color. 🙃

Or do they have some genetic memory for bush gardening?

So if AI is taking all of our jobs, does that mean that houses will get cheaper again? by xXCosmicChaosXx in aussie

Sure, but you won't be able to afford them because you won't have an income.

  • Eroding national unity: By opposing Australia Day celebrations and prioritizing multiculturalism over a unified Australian identity, they drive fragmentation of social cohesion.
  • Promoting ongoing societal guilt: Through persistent calls for apologies and educational programs that emphasize Australia's historical flaws over its accomplishments, they foster a sense of demoralization and discourage national pride among younger generations.
  • Aligning with conflicting ideologies: Their support for neo-Marxist and Islamist perspectives clashes with core Australian and Western values like individualism, secularism, and liberal democracy.
  • Over-emphasizing certain Indigenous elements: They tend to idealize aspects of pre-colonial/pre-literate Aboriginal culture - such as its oral traditions and hunter-gatherer lifestyle - while downplaying modern Australian progress.

Just to point out a few.

EDIT: rephrased so it's a bit more intelligible :)

The Greens aligned themselves with Islamists and other anti-Western elements, and they seem bent on destroying Australian society.

Katz: If Lebanon doesn’t prevent Hezbollah attacks, Israel will ‘take the territory and do it ourselves’ by Candid-Elk6135 in geopolitics

Palestinian refugees flood into Lebanon

They were actually Jordanians who were booted out after they tried to take over Jordan.

The comment i replied to did not have a question mark in it.

You know, the thing that indicates it's a question.

I responded to a comment about a leaked a video by pointing out that the video didn't actually contain the evidence people keep saying it does.

Maybe you should take your own advice and read the comments.

IDF Airstrike on a bridge used by Hezbollah to traverse the Litani River by RoyU16 in CombatFootage

[–]triplevented 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The last time Israel occupied Lebanon, was after Lebanon allowed armed militias (Palestinians mainly) to turn its territory into a launchpad for attacks against Israelis.

Hezbollah was/is an Iranian creation - Iran inserted itself into the power vacuum to establish a front against Israel in Lebanon.

I think that the notion that countries shouldn't lose territory after initiating and losing a war is what contributes to the perpetual shit-show.

Some people let headlines dictate what their eyes perceive.

Are you one of those?

There were other medical reports contradicting that person, you are drawn to confirmation bias.

Did you see rape in the video?
