20-25% of current Aussies have convict ancestors and 40-45% have coloniser ancestors. I’m not even going to engage in ur stupidity of blaming the people of the present for shit that happened over 100years ago.
The fact that you think it is speaks to how comfortable your life is lmfao. For my people, a hundred years changed fucking nothing. Schools, jobs, living districts, third spaces, the fact that we still get lynched by cops and fed into prison slavery if we’re lucky enough to survive a cop run-in; all still segregated in ways that are just nebulous enough to get a veneer of plausible deniability from the settlers thanks to the efforts of assimilationist tokens. Y’know, the artifice that lets you say “a hundred years is a long time and everything is different now”. I couldn’t be paid to believe your situation is any different-- just where you sit on the pecking order.
But this is all a waste of time. Even if you read what I’m saying-- which I doubt-- you’d never internalize it. You’re physically incapable of seeing how your sausage is made; otherwise, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.
I am reading what ur writing I think it’s critically important to for everyone myself included to talk to people one disagrees with.
Well ur talking about america in this situation and well yeah I agree America is completely fucked its the worlds greatest third world country. I never said its different now I’m simply washing my hands of any responsibility for something that happened 100 years ago.

Imagine splitting the difference when convicts were still used for settler-colonialism, yawn. Are you still going, peck?
No. I’m separating the fact that the entire events of colonisation happened over a hundred years ago. That’s a lot of goddamn time.
