Australia still treats its native population horribly. Nazi style horribly. Every single piece of news about the aborigines has been bad for decades, with little or no social assistance in any way.
When you accuse a human being of being an 'oxygen theif' at their trial, nazis are prevalent in society.
Fuck you, Australia.
It's amazing how much isn't taught in school. And I know that won't be surprising to those in other colonial states like the US and Canada but we learned about US segregation, Jim Crow, read/watched To Kill A Mockingbird, but didn't know we've had the same kind of de facto segregated towns here in Australia within living history, complete with our own Freedom Ride in 1965. Luckily the union movement and communists eventually put a dent in it through boycotts and shoved the government into action.
