Thousands of Australians protested today, with banners displaying 'No pride in genocide', as a national holiday intended to celebrate the birth of modern Australia continues to divide the country.
Australia Day, on January 26, marks the anniversary of the 1788 arrival of the First Fleet to Sydney Cove, carrying mainly convicts and troops from Britain.
But for many indigenous Australians, who trace their lineage on the continent back 50,000 years, it is 'Invasion Day' - the start of Britain's colonisation of Aboriginal lands and their brutal subjugation. Some demonstrators want Australia Day abolished; others want its date changed. Avengers star Chris Hemsworth posted on Instagram: 'Let's find a date to celebrate this beautiful country that doesn't exclude our indigenous people'.
They're fucking faggots. Fuck them. It's funny seeing these people who are 1/16 Abbo and 15/16 English pretend that they're oppressed or the victims of "racism." It's the same shit they do in the US with Columbus Day and Thanksgiving. They don't give a fuck about our ancestors or our concerns. We have no obligation to care about them or their manipulative whiny bullshit.

Are there even many to begin with?
Adam Evans
Not anymore. They aren't the ones organizing these things anyway. Those cunts can't even organize their own feet into walking a strait line.

This is why we shouldn’t racemix. It came back and bit our butts.
