And Tasmanians, and Native Americans, and Indians, and Kenyans, and Irish…
Probably other brits…
Various forms of Gaelic are hardly languages anymore
What’s happening behind Pikachu?
Probably the British, sneaking up.
Brock is just standing behind him
They needed an inquiry for this? If the British showed up, they tried to genocide, that’s just what they do
It’s always been characterized as a police action against “criminals.”
In the US, we declared war against Native Americans, so it’s more obviously a genocide. Murders of aboriginal Australians have always been constructed as police actions.
The Inquiry:
*Opens a 7th grade social studies class textbook.
And here I thought folks just let the Brits displace them because they’re so nice!
The sky is blue, moon is a rock in space, earth is a stupid name for a planet. Tell me new things
It’s important because settlers have been denying the genocide from the beginning and still do to this day.
Racist be racist
Look, I’m on the Brit’s side on this one. Just because the aborigines have the oldest ever civilisation and just because they lived here for 100K years before the brits turned up, doesn’t mean shit.
/s obviously.
If this inquiry has no power to actually do anything about this finding, I’m not sure I understand the point.
Anyone who ever read a history book already knows about the multiple genocides. The issue is what happens now?
They needed an inquiry?
Just wait 200 years and the West will also admit to all the contemporary genocides. And will make some very touching museum to them, while committing new ones and silencing anyone opposed to it.
The genocides will continue until the morale improves.
And the American settlers genocided the native Americans. All the western super-powers are built of slaughter, rape and pillage.
You think other empires weren’t. No slaves in Russia, Persia or china. Rest of the world was peaceful and dainty.
How about the americas pre Columbus. Do you think they were peaceful and had not slaves.
I mean, idk about the Aztecs but the Incas didn’t. But regardless, chattel slavery is a purely Western creation and for at least two millennia the European man has been the main source of grief and destruction in the world. Idc if you refute it, I understand why you would, but it’s neither productive nor honest.
Your “I don’t know” and your “I don’t care” pretty much sum up you grasp of history
This is news?
for real. i thought this was common knowledge how ravenous the British were throughout history
They also found the sky is blue and water is wet. (I know, technically it’s not)
looks at Canada, then the US
Guess the apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree
Shocking
