Yolŋu people celebrate 50 years of the homelands movement in East Arnhem Land

Brian Ross wrote on Sep 20^th, 2025 at 1:45pm:


A load of bollocks.... they've had their Big Men ripping of Govt funds & mining royalties for 60 years.

Looking after their own close relatives & leaving others in poverty.

Your Yunipingu clan are the perfect example.

If it wasn't for white mans money & guilt they'd have SFA.
Colonisation bought them out of the dark ages and has now funded any semblance of a recovery of homelands ... at taxpyayers expense.

Because you want to hermitically seal off their homeland, segregate them there and sell tickets to rich people to go in and hunt them.

You actually expect to be taken seriously while defending your calls for segregation and even genocide of Indigenous Australians, and then have the audacity to shift the blame onto them?

You're not misunderstood, you're a genuinely terrible person.

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2025 at 9:58am:


I'm not the one calling for segregation - their activists are and you can't stand it when I say they can have their own state/homeland but at their cost .... I'm not the one calling for genocide - I merely said that those who refused orders to disperse and return to their homes and stop rioting etc could be shot under the law .... all the blame has been shifted onto Australians - not them while they carry out 93% of the woman killings in the Northern territory and not much lower a percentage everywhere else ... they just need to man up and take responsibility for their own failings, move into the times, and stop saying it's all whartey's fault.

You don't expect anyone to take you seriously, do you, spouting off your woke nonsense day after day?

The tides have changed.

Haven't you got a job to attend to?  Oh - that's right - you haven't. ... you're on one of those easy street things...

You make up crazy crap, teapot, and then fume about it at great hyperbolic length. Ludicrous.

So do you want the quote of him saying that, or you just gonna ignore it anyway and keep lying?

What are we doing here bitch?

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2025 at 3:18pm:

I have a quote for you that applies to you and your ilk perfectly:

"[url=]The internet is full of absolute garbage losers who will twist anything you say into a c***y misinterpretation. People are awful[/url].”

Garbage losers who twist everything into a ***** misinterpretation. So apt.

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2025 at 3:28pm:

I can't help noticing that suddenly you are responding to a 3 year old post, made in a different chat, different contexts, different topic.

Rather than embracing modernity, education, they're celebrating 50 years of sitting in the dirt sniffing petrol and the ABC loves it because they're resisting evil colonization.

Gordon wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2025 at 7:28pm:

Millions and millions of people lost everything, including their homes and countries during and after WWII. They and their descendants are not alcoholic wife beaters, they are not abusing and beating their families, children and blaming Hitler for it all 80 years later.
Why do  a small but sizable proportion of  Aborigynes? Which other wife beating child neglecting school avoiding demographic gets away with not taking responsibility for the degradation and depravity they visit on each other and themselves?

It is not the rest of Australia that makes those remote Aborigynes discard their dignity and self-respect in favour of drunken family violence and neglect and abuse. They are doing it to themselves.

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2025 at 10:24pm:



You are on ludacris cam (sic), teapot.

You responded in the current discussion to a 3 year old post made in another discussion.

And you want us all to accommodate your little psycho drama or else apologise.  Nutty.

Why do you have to be such a bullshit artist, especially when what you're saying is contradicted in the same thread?

I was responding to Grap, referencing his own words and the positions he's pushed on "giving them a homeland", yet here he is crying victim again, as if he never advocated for their segregation and genocide in the first place.

This is a true and accurate statement, but you have to come in and try to white night for your fellow racist bum chum:

Then after some back and forth, I of course had the receipts to prove I wasn't making anything up, despite your projection, and once I laid them out,

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 22^nd, 2025 at 3:28pm:


Rather than accept you were wrong and that I wasn't making anything up, you've shifted the goalposts yet again, this time whining that I replied to something from three years ago.

No, I replied directly to you and your bullshit claim, and instead of showing the slightest shred of good faith, you double down as the same bullshit artist you've always been.

Go open your Bunnings... or maybe I should, so I can start charging you for all the rakes you so eagerly sprint across just to smack yourself in the face.



You must have a humiliation kink, because you literally go out of your way to manufacture it these days.

Nobody is accidentally this inept, this catalogue of self-inflicted disgrace reads as deliberate, not dumb.

You mean like this?

Gnads wrote on Sep 24^th, 2025 at 10:44am:


Is there some sort of link between racism and delusional thinking?

Because the way you lot carry on, it's indistinguishable. You spout lies, get caught out in your own words, get shown evidence that makes it undeniable, yet you still cling to the nonsense like it's sacred scripture.

So I thought I'd humour myself and go look it up, see if anyone had studied this, and sure enough, there's a body of research connecting the dots.

Turns out the same cognitive flaws that underpin delusional ideation, cherry-picking evidence, jumping to conclusions, motivated reasoning, also prop up racist beliefs. Not exactly clinical psychosis, but the thinking patterns overlap.

Which makes sense really.

It's not that you can't see reality, it's that you refuse to, because the facts threaten the little victimhood narrative you've built around your supposed superiority.

And so instead of engaging with the truth, you retreat to schoolyard quips like "You couldn't catch a cold. " proving the point better than I ever could.

Are these people celebrating their 100+ years of homelands they built - now THIS is racism:-

Sir Grappler Truth Teller OAM wrote on Sep 24^th, 2025 at 11:50am:

The modern day Yolnju people have never been out of their Homeland - the nation in which they now live and from which they derive benefit far in excess of what their old culture would have produced for them.

It they choose to view some other area as their Homeland - they are welcome to reject all benefits accruing from the modern nation ...  the Last Nation they will ever have.

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 24^th, 2025 at 11:02am:


In your case yes.

Yes you do tell lies.

Iryna Zarutska was murdered by a racist & not one black person surrounding her did a god damned thing because she was white.

You have no grip on the truth, facts or reality.

The only numpties pushing the victimhood narrative ad infinitum are softcock leftists like you.

How the phuk you run a business is beyond comprehension.   

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 27^th, 2025 at 10:15am:



Does it look like I modified anything you wrote?

All I did was highlight parts of your quote - it's all there as you posted it.

It's you lefty twerps who edit/modify peoples posts to use them in another context.
Try again Roo Sack

No evidence you say? Just a more refined approach to discussion than John Smith, but in the same vein?

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 27^th, 2025 at 10:58am:


It wasn't modified at all you lying moron.

All I did was highlight parts of your BS waffle.

Honesty isn't in your repertoire.

But that's expected from leftists. No honour, no shame.

Where did the line about Iryna Zarutska come from, you lying moron?

ProudKangaroo wrote on Sep 28^th, 2025 at 5:38pm:



You can't even reread your own quotes you numpty.

You're the one who mentioned her - I highlighted her name in your quote & gave my opinion on the matter.

You feign intelligence but are sadly lacking.

I did not modify your post - it is there word for word -

I highlighted what I wished to comment on - that is not modification or editing you dumb tnuc.

Gnads wrote on Sep 29^th, 2025 at 8:23am:


Mate, either you're losing your grip or deliberately trying to gaslight. None of my posts mentioned Iryna Zarutska. You doctored my words when you quoted me.

Go ahead, open the entire thread,

https://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1758339906/all

Run a Find for "Iryna Zarutska". The first instance is in your post, where you edited my quote to make it look like I said something I didn't.

My actual post never mentioned her, as I proved in the side-by-side. It's off topic, I wouldn't have raised it, and I didn't. You did. Then you tried to pin it on me, using it as a diversion. Classic racist deflection.

And now, because you've been caught out, you're lashing out at me? You're no different to Frank having a meltdown when I quoted Grap directly and he still tried to weasel his way out of being wrong. You lot are so brittle that the second you're proven wrong, you spin it into some tantrum meltdown, piling more lies on top to avoid admitting fault.

It's all there in black and white.

If it was an honest mistake, fine, say so and I'll accept an apology. But don't insult my intelligence. Do better.

.... and all these years we've been told they loathe the Reservation system - now their demand is for reservations over the whole country just to suit them and their outdated ideas....  well - that dingo ain't gonna hunt.... but they must be enjoying their fifty years on their reservation where the Big Men rip off everyone else and live in luxury etc - eat steak while the peons eat snake...

Gnads wrote on Sep 29^th, 2025 at 10:37am:


You can quite easily edit other people's posts when you quote them without it being seen.

I've done it to your post above, for illustrative purposes only.

Seeing as you both maintain that no editing was done, that only leaves the GMods or a glitch in the system   

greggerypeccary wrote on Sep 29^th, 2025 at 10:49am:


how droll - you wouldn't have chanced your hand at it then?

So it leaves this outstanding -

Now does that sound like any of the type of language I've used here over the past 12 years?

It certainly sounds like superfluous pseudo intellectual wank speech that Sad Sack uses on a daily basis.

Gnads wrote on Sep 29^th, 2025 at 12:33pm:


Which tells me that you gave it some thought before editing his post.

Own goal   

His original post does not have a timestamp showing it was edited, and it does not contain the text you posted.

Unless it was done by a GMod (which seems quite unlikely), it looks like you've been caught out.

greggerypeccary wrote on Sep 29^th, 2025 at 1:35pm:



And neither do mine. So you can phuk off too with your lies.

The only arseholes on this forum that deliberately edit & change the context of other members posts have been you & the other looney leftards.

And Free Diver - & who knows where he hangs his hat?

... and all his time we've been told over and over again that they loathe and despise the reservation system... now they simply demand mini-states of their exclusive own... but somehow that's different... well - I guess they'll have to go on despising the reservation system - and we'll simply despise the mini-state for ten people idea...

Total madness... it's time to settle all of this up once and for all - before it's done down the track once the progressives have managed to bring Australia down... the kind of government that will develop from that and from the thinking of the countless new chums won't look too kindly on all these huge reservations for exclusive NON-use by a small part of a minority group - they'll simply ride over the whole deal.

You mark my words....

Gnads wrote Yesterday at 9:18am:


What you quoted of me, besides the highlight, was modified from the original to include Iryna Zarutska, which you also highlighted.

It was never present in my original post. 

My original post was not modified before or after you quoted it, as evidenced by there being no edited message.

Plus the version you changed in your quote doesn't even make sense, especially compared to the unedited original.

You've been shown this multiple times with direct side by side comparisons.

When you quoted me, you changed my original reply within your quote, then argued with what you'd changed. 

I'm not a mod here, I can't change my post without an edit message appearing, and I have no power to modify yours.

You've been caught red-handed with irrefutable evidence. 

Quote:


Your quote of mine is where the additional text is...  Your post.  It was YOU.

When you quoted me, you changed what was in the quote to include Iryna Zarutska then you replied to it as if I'd brought her up, which I didn't as you can clearly see, in black and white.

Quote:


Don't try to twist this around into you being some sort of victim here.

If you want to make accusations about others changing your posts, then provide proof, especially if you're going to accuse me of that to hide your own guilt, or shut the bugger up.

You're worse than my highschool girlfriend...  Whenever we'd have an argument, the moment she was backed into a corner because of something she'd done, she would go into hysterics, lying, screaming, all so I'd just give up and drop it so she wouldn't have to face any accountability, or worse, start crying as if she was the victim to get sympathy from her friends to pile on me as if I'd done something wrong. 

I was too young and dumb to see what was happening, and we were already going to the formal together, but I ended it before starting uni.

You're worse than a teenage girl going through puberty...

When you quoted me, you changed the text of mine within the quote in your reply, then argued with the changes you made as if I introduced that information.  It's there in black and white, you've been caught red-handed, have the courage and decency to at least own up to it.

You screwed up, own it.

ProudKangaroo wrote Yesterday at 9:55am:


Get phukked.

Whoever added the text about Iryna Zarutska to your post it was not me.

So as long as your arse points to the ground I will not take the wrap for adding that text or selectively editing & leaving out entire posts that I respond to.

From what I've seen the levels some here stoop to is beyond the pale. Including you.

I changed nothing in your post I responded to bar highlighting what I wanted to respond to.

You can accuse me all you like but it's just an allegation to which you have no real proof.

So don't verbal me.

You could not catch a cold.

...and all this time I thought they hated the reservation system - now they are demanding it.

ProudKangaroo wrote Yesterday at 3:39pm:


There is no pretense phukhead. Who ever altered that post knows how to operate above my pay grade.

Get that through your fathead.

You couldn't catch a cold & you haven't proven one thing accept your own arrogance.

So much kerfuffle over suggesting they run Maverick style hunts to get a few bucks in for The Homeland they demanded as part of their settlement of their Voice putsch.  They demanded Apartheid; they demand segregation and their own 'law' and everything; they demand their own state - I'm just being nice and offering them what they think they are entitled to.... on the condition that they take it once and for all and live their way, bro... without our input to distress them ....

It was only an idea about the Maverick hunts- the autistic Kanga missed the 'maybe'.... but if you reckon they don't need the cash flow - OK - they'll just have to get by earning the traditional way.

Now what about those blokes over WA who made grind stones and dishes and then carried them hundreds of miles to trade for fish on the coast?  That makes a lot of sense... sort of another Pascoe type fable.... HTF do you carry fish back hundreds of miles to the inland tribe in the heat?  They must have done it at night...

I wonder if The Homeland will turn into another Gaza Strip one day?  We've already got the Gaga Strip down Canberra - the ACT ... I can foresee the Homeland Abos thinking they was robbed of their land and waging war on Istralia.... throwing spears over the border daily... suicide boomerang attacks on civilians ...  roadside rock bombs .... I heard one in Redfern tried to blow up a bus but burnt his lips on the exhaust... but that might have been a tranny Hamas supporter....

If we factor in the 5 minutes of updates without a message, another 3,346 minutes had passed before he replied.  If my post had been changed after he'd posted his reply, there would have been an edit message.  The only way the text of my post within his quote was different to the original was if he edited it before posting in his reply.

It's that simple.

He then went onto reply to the line about Iryna Zarutska, which he inserted into my quote, it's not in the original:

Gnads wrote on Sep 26^th, 2025 at 6:53pm:


If he'd just owned up to what he did and corrected the edit, this wouldn't have been a drama. But instead, he doubled, tripled, even quadrupled down, and then turned abusive, like being called out somehow makes him the victim.

That's rich, especially given all the noise around here about not misquoting people when replying.

But no, that's not how it played out. He got caught out, dug his heels in, and lashed out.

It's all there in black and white. Surely as a mod you can see exactly what's gone on here.

ProudKangaroo wrote Today at 6:33am:



And I'll continue to quadruple quadruple down because I did not put/add anything into your post that I replied to.

I highlighted what I saw - that's it!!!!!!!!!

I responded to what I highlighted - that's it!!!!!

You're a failed Sherlock Holmes like you're a failure in general.

STFU.

... and all these years the Abos have decried the reservation system - but they never let go of Arnhem Land .. they love the 'royalties' ... but like children they just don't want to share things with everyone else even when they are a tiny minority and don;t own the land...

.. the reservation system is only good when it suits - and dividing Australia up into a thousand little states totally owned by them is absurd...

You really have to ask what, if anything, is in the 'minds' of anyone who supports such utter insanity .... which will only lead to trouble down the track...

A single proper homeland for them is the only way forward - a two state solution. .. with theirs as far away as possible from the rest of us.

Gnads wrote Today at 1:15pm:


Yeah, because it only exists in YOUR post, the one YOU wrote.

Maybe stop doing that if you don't want to get called out about it.

If you want to call me a hypocrite, then you'd better be able to show where I've modified other people's posts, inserting text in quotes that wasn't in the original, like in your post, otherwise, I'd appreciate it if you would correct that lie and apologise for that too.

Edit: Looks like you updated your post after I replied, so I'll address those changes in the next reply.

...and all these years the Abos have been complaining about the Reservation system - Arnhem Land is THE biggest reservation in the land and has all the problems of all the reservations  never-ending... I like that movie Wind River but the reality is that in the US most such crimes are Red on Red and not from some random group of White guys....

As for here - all those disappearances and the violence aren't from random White men or White men in general at all:-

As much as this tragedy is a grim distraction, it appears he was either paralysed with shock or incapable of calling for help given her injuries, and within moments, she bled out.

This should never have happened. She fled Ukraine for what she believed would be safety, only to die violently in the supposed "civilised" West.

And let's not pretend this is some isolated misfortune. It's a harbinger of what's coming. As Trump drags the US economy into the gutter, the manufactured government shutdown will become a convenient pretext to strip away even the meagre healthcare protections Americans still cling to. His tariffs and mass deportations will drive up the cost of living and choke food supply chains. What happens when wages stagnate, shelves empty, and basic services collapse? Crime fills the vacuum.

And here's the cruel irony: the very MAGA faithful, white, flag-draped, and deliriously cheering the wrecking ball, will be among those reduced to desperation. They won't even see the connection between their suffering and the man they worship.
