ABC is slammed for making New Year's Eve 9pm show all about 'Invasion Day' with 'woke' Aboriginal rappers - as disappointed parents ask: 'Where's the Bluey fireworks for kids?'

The ABC has been blasted for making its family friendly 9pm coverage of the iconic New Year's Eve celebrations about 'Invasion Day'.

The extravaganza is typically known as the 'fireworks for children', with younger audiences going to bed before the midnight display.

This year, after the characters from the popular cartoon Bluey were projected onto the pillars of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the 9pm show kicked off with a racially-charged monologue followed by a rap performance of a song called 'Our People' by Indigenous rap group '3 Percent'.

Confused parents took to social media complaining the lead in to the Calling Country fireworks display was not appropriate for children.

Against my better judgment I tuned into the ABC just before the 9pm fireworks display and lasted all of 5 minutes before turning it off.

What an appalling display of bias, division and rapping at what is essentially supposed to be the family and kids fireworks display. 

Why are we still funding the ABC?   Never again!

And on a brighter note Happy New Year to all.

We should be so lucky!

I'm relieved I don't watch the footy!   

ABC is totally captured by the blue haired hard left staffers who work there, and i literally can't think of one decent show they make apart from Gardening Australia.

Did anyone see it?  It was absolutely dreadful and even moreso because it was supposed to be for kids and families.

I hate to think what's in store for us on Australia Day.

Getting me as big a flag as possible... maybe this year we'll see the Intifada promised and a little genuine law and order can be imposed on rioters.

Thanks, Albo - all the good will towards Abos is gone now.

I always have but I thought I'd check out the fireworks and they were the only channel covering it.  5 minutes was enough for another lifetime.

NYE shouldn't have anything to do with Abo politics.

It's not Albo's fault you're all racist

I used to watch ABC a lot and NITV for some good stuff sometimes about real things - like the Darling River ... now I don't watch them at all.  SBS - I like some world movies... not the naked kind and the silly stuff like discussing sex and strippers in Germany or trannies in Holland - as if that's the only thing in this world.   

Not your fault - I blame those Belgians...

The ABC is full of cultural Marxists who don't give a damn about
fair and unbiased coverage of news and other events -
instead they set an agenda of political propaganda with every show they make.
Ita Buttrose is a traitor to Australia.

Ita Buttrose will not seek a second term as ABC chair when it expires in March 2024 but her “formidable” leadership of the public broadcaster has been marked by “speaking truth to power”, the communications minister, Michelle Rowland, has said.

Absolutely.  And nothing to do with skin. Racists will be racists.

Disgusting display of guilt tripping parents and children with agenda driven bs propaganda.

What a way to start 2024 .... just more of the same woke bias from the ABC.

Correct .... the WOKE wanker David Anderson running the ABC should be shown the door.

So calling you a wog is racist?

Discriminatory maybe but racist?

These are the lyrics form 3 Percent's NYE rap song,
complete with obscenities...



You know I'm just tryna make it alright
But maybe we're just gonna try to be someone
Go and let the system burn to kingdom come

Too accustomed to the westernised
Layin' on a bed of lies or bed of knives
Dread bed at night to a fairytale titled "Better Times"
Fictional glass slippers and pumpkins, you ain't know nothin'
Young Hercules done heard it from Pegasus, they up to somethin'
My homies rollin' beanstalks
Giants and golden geese talk
Wolf in sheep's clothin'
The magic beans nevеr been bought
You can suck my Moby Dick
Not playin' with these little pigs
Thе apple filled with little drips of poison, you don't need a kiss
Wake up 'fore it's too late to notice they changed the narrative
Sugarcoat the lies with all of these funny characters
Manipulate the masses and never tell them the half of it
And that's only the half of it, ah
I'm here with all of my people (Yeah)
Locked up with all of my people (Yeah)
So let me hear you scream if you're with me (Yeah)
Free all my people

They locked us up and then they threw away the key
It's the stolen generations hauntin' trauma that I see
And that's the part of history of which we never speak (Nah)
Always movin' backwards keeps the future outta reach, uh
Let's separate the men from the boys
They dropped that money on the marketin', they failed to hear the voice (They did)
I shouldn't talk like this
My country buggerin' sick
3% the new Pemulwuy   [an 18th Bidjigal man, and resistance fighter]
We don't buggerin' miss
Do as you're told or that's cuffs on the wrist, huh (Yeah)
You're ten years old, then that's cuffs on the wrist, huh (Yeah)
They stole the land in the name of their kings (Yeah)
Now look at how they act when you mention Alice Springs

You know I'm just tryna make it alright
But maybe we're just gonna try to be someone
Go and let the system burn to kingdom come
But now I'm not gonna see my daughter cry
From all the shit that I've had hold of me for life
Gonna let it hold on to us one more time, oh

I see my people always locked up, locked up, locked up, locked up
Why my people always locked up, locked up, locked up, locked up?
Free my people always locked up, locked up, locked up, locked up
Here my people always locked up, locked up, locked up, locked up
I'm here with all of my people (Yeah)
Locked up with all of my people (Yeah)
So let me hear you scream if you're with me (Yeah)
Free all my people

From valleys to skies, you've made this land full with lies
Made up story your disguise, make out everything's alright
See you're makin' more shit up about us
But I'm here with all my people, so speak louder
When you next come around talkin' this shit aloud
Know we're loud, Black and proud and we ain't backin' down
I got all my brothers standin' here around us
So hold onto your shit, we're gettin' riled up

You know I'm just tryna make it alright
But maybe we're just gonna try to be someone
Go and let the system burn to kingdom come
But now I'm not gonna see my daughter cry
From all the shit that I've had hold of me for life
Gonna let it hold on to us one more time, oh.

—This foul-mouthed tirade should never have been
   played in the hearing of young children.  I can understand
   parents being horrified, but hopefully little kids didn't
   clearly hear and/or comprehend the lyrics.  It's this sort
   of inflammatory rubbish that can only set back the
