It clashes with the white armband view of history pushed by Howard and the like. I think he is speaking for the audience a bit not so much just himself.

Once they had to acknowledge that terra nullis was fiction ( and didn’t they fight against that - they are coming for your backyard - sound familiar?) it then transitioned to: A bit of push me shove you in the frontier, shit happens then they all died of diseases.

It’s uncomfortable to acknowledge than women and children were murdered while they were in their camps. You know, it’s not sporting or chipper. Tally Ho at least they have running water now you know?

The Voice is a small step in the right direction everyone voting has the chance to be on the forward looking positive path or just saying it’s all to hard let’s keep doing what’s failed in the past.
