    You gonna pretend your entire life hasn’t been built on a framework that raped 90% of the planet?

      The irony of an Aussie saying this is palpable.

      When are you going to stop the rampant and ongoing persecution of the aboriginal population and the intentional erosion of their way of life?

      There’s nothing I can do about my ancestors’ actions; but you have a real opportunity to enact the change you feel our ancestors should have done at home.

        Actually doing quite a lot in my capacity. Sovreignty was never ceded.

        What are you doing to press for the return of cultural items illegally acquired and held in the UK?

        I mean you’re demanding i do my bit to dismantle a system (which I actually very definitively did in a recent vote), surely you can write the British museum a nasty letter.

        Or did it simply never occur to you?

          I’m glad to hear it. I am doing everything in my capacity to help with the repatriation of the empire’s illegally pillaged artifacts.

          Admittedly that’s not a great deal currently though, most of my spare time is spent helping out at the local food bank, as there’s a bit of a malnourishment crisis going on in the UK ATM (as I’m sure there is most places tbh. The disparity between rich and poor seems to have grown exponentially since covid and the job market is only compounding the issue).

          You guys should have ceded from the crown eons ago; if I had the choice I certainly would. You won’t find much love for the monarchy among the working class in Britain.

            Trying, but the monarchist cucks keep drowning out the voices of those of us who want out.

            Sadly I suspect the US implosion means more and more are going to cling to mummy britain to save us defensewise despite the fact that historically does not work out so well for us…
