In responce to why some people hate Australia:
I have worked and lived with Australians for years and come to the factual conclusion that:
1 – They are english convicts that brought liquor, smoking, diseases and GREED to this land.
2 – They raped aboriginals and stole land from the peaceful aboriginals, whom lived off the land needing no money.
3 – They think they are better physically and metally, than any other race.
4 – They all talk with a childish NASAL accent
5 – They are definitely more verbal with their racism towards people that are not true blue australian. (Ive seen it from their young to the very old out in public and on national and local TV news )
6 – Prefer to be nicer to their own kind, than any other race.
7 – They act like dogs that dont like to share their bone (land) which they stole off the aboriginals.
8 – Australians need to get over themselves, and educate themselves to the new cultures that are living in australia already ( starting with their own – the FIRST AUSTRALIANS aboriginal culture first. Then will Australia finally have culture to show the rest of the world, instead of a surf lifesavers uniform)
9 – The funniest I heard from a celebrity describing Australians was from :
Robin Williams who said in a serious interview about working in Australia doing a voice over for the movie ” Findin Nemo 2 ” was that ” Australians are English Rednecks ” comparing them to the racist and loud American Rednecks.
10 – They moan about Australia being too overpopulated and their being a shortage of workers. ( Start by Moaning to their government to stop the baby bonus and stop giving the unemployment dole to able aussies that laze at the beach and at home ).
THEY SHOULDNT OF TREATED ALL THE ABOS BADLY AND EXCLUDED THEM AND INTRODUCED THE ( WHITE DEVILS DRINK ) ALCOHOL TO THE ABOS.
I AM NOT TRYING TO BELITTLE ALL YOU AUSSIES BUT IT IS TRUE FACTS ON HOW WE WATCH AND OBSERVE YOU AUSSIES.
