Comment on More like a bacterial infection imo

I still very much blame Britain for much of the way Indigenous Australians have been treated. In the same way that I put a lot of blame on Britain for the current war in Gaza. Or the escalating conflict between Pakistan and India.

Well yeah, it’s an easy cop out to blame a country the other side of the world for your fellow countryman’s treatment of aboriginals.
Introspection is hard; but deflecting the blame will do nothing to resolve the issue.

I never said it wasn’t Australians fault as well. This is a really reductive take that shifts the blame for colonisation. Fluffing hilarious that you’re a feddit.uk user. Cope much for your country destroying the world?

“as well”.
You’re still deflecting. The current treatment of aboriginals is wholly down to your country. I ask again, why haven’t you got your guillotine out yet?

There’s no statute of limitations on genocide.
