How different the settlement of Australia could have been if the Indigenous Australians had been treated with respect:  At World's End

Great read.

Maybe the British presence here will pack up their Union Jack from off the Australian Flag and just go home too?
The Aboriginals  will cry, now they are left with a motley assortment of 'Criminals'.

Respect is earned, no?

Abo women presenting to those colonial doctors with skulls scarred and dented, bodies trashed.  Abo kids given as husbands and wives to sadistic adults.  Babies birthed and tossed off for the dingoes.  etc.  No wonder the Abos were regarded as unevolved savages

sure, that was/is their culture and it's still going on

but it doesn't generate respect

I see no hope for them.  And when the Chinese take over, they'll be ended
