MY AUSTRALIA DAY DEAL: CHANGE THE DATE, BUT ONLY IF ACTIVISTS THEN JOIN IN

Fine, change the date of Australia Day from January 26. Let race activists — even Cricket Australia — pick any other they prefer. I’ll happily go along with that if they agree to a deal: to then also celebrate the creation of this great country. Think that will happen? Or that they'll just move the goal posts yet again?

Bolt offers the majority of Australians an individual's capitulation. His individualism, his history, sacrificed to the majority. The acceptance that some 330 different communities languages and cultures existed here well before the British who had lied to the world when they stuck a flag in the ground and stole lands belonging of over 700,000 peoples. An inglorious past disguised and mythologized as something to be admired rather than a truth to include us all..

 How generous is Bolt the idiot, buffoon  and  Europhile who dreams of Amsterdam to retire. A place where he wasn't even born. Yes, Bolt is son of migrants accepted by a Colonial mentality simply because his parents were white and allowed entry to a country that banned any peoples of color residency. Bolt became the adopted son of a racist nation which he has come to support for little more than his personal advantage and social mobility. He admitted he never identified as Australian until his mid thirties when he married an Australian local which accelerated his social mobility.

Bolt waa raised with the ambitious mindset of  Hitler's Youth movement. He realized with little merit it would be who he knew rather than what was his means to fulfill his mother's ambitions and belief that they were better than the rest. All her son Andrew had to do was to suck up to the upper class wasps who mythologized Australia as god given theirs.  Within a very short period of time they had reduced 40,000 years of  the first nation peoples to 30% of the original numbers.

Note their is no "our" Australia in Bolt's mindset only "my" Australia. Yet he's the least community oriented and totally self-inter citizen among us. A total waste of space.(ODT)

 

 When 'almost' isn't half Australia but is meant to make us believe it is. When disinterest is is in fact simply a part of institutionalised racism

Almost half oppose campaign to change Australia Day date: poll

The campaign to change the date of Australia Day from January 26 is supported by fewer than a third of Australians, although half believe the contentious date will be shifted within 10 years.
