Aboriginal protesters burn the Australian flag

5-year-winter:

What a way to earn the respect of the Government…

What are they even protesting against? That be right; Indogenous rights, like they’re not getting enough money from the Government already, and us white people are the racists…

I mean it’s not like we go and burn their flag - yes probably becuase we wouldn’t know where to buy one other than eBay or a cultural centre.. But that’s not the point, we still don’t do it!

Without white man they would probably still be content, yes content but without any technology, transport or petrol (God forbid..) They’d still be sleeping in the mud and throwing spears and boomerangs.. And this is how they show their gratitude. By burning our flag..

My forefathers were not in this country when white man originally massacred hundreds of thounsands of them. Just like many Germans these days denounce their forefather’s Nazi actions.. how much longer can they possibly keep holding this against us who did nothing?

Bleeding us dry I say.

So. I’m not Australian, but I’ve been trying to read up on what is exactly going down. And well…uh.

No.

Listen, flag burning is flag burning, be angry at that. But don’t tell a group of people to get over them being slaughtered and nearly wiped out. 

And don’t ever think that the “White Man” brought anything resembling salvation/enlightenment. Just…don’t.
