hey that's not fair they uh actually have um their own uniquely innovative type of sushi that they er, invented or something of that sort
it's like regular sushi but they don't cut it
wonderful stuff coming out of Australia
they also put sprinkles on bread. which is an A-level gastronomic innovation in the Anglic realm
I'm pretty sure the dutch invented the sprinkles thing
my whole life is a lie thought up by the dutch
Many people are saying this
And the Dutch are just as bad…
There’s 2 things I hate

I'll die before I give up my fairy bread.
Death to Australia, though.
Yeah, Australians are such bigots. I hate them all.
this but unironically
Every Australian I've met have been pretty racist yeah
Its only as bad as any other anglo country.
In 1900 New Zealand was given a choice to join Australia as a state and one of the commonly cited reasons against joining was that NZers were worried that Australians were so racist that they would cause another war with the indigenous Maori people.
Not that NZers at the time were treating Maori people with fairness and dignity, but Maori could at least vote and Australia was actively genociding the Tasmanian aboriginal people at the time so...
Not exactly as bad as all other anglo countries.
there's something very funny to me about turboracists who nevertheless draw the line somewhere.
like NZ in the above story, or like the countless very racist northerners in the ACW who certainly did not want to live next to black people or treat them as equals, but were nevertheless willing to fucking die to end slavery.
how do you get this kind of brainworm?!
At that time NZ Settlers had just gotten out of a very destructive war with the Maori. Maori people fought exceptionally well and some historians credit them with inventing proto-trench warfare.
The white settlers had to cry to Britain for help, and the war was so expensive the Brits basically told the settlers that they weren't getting bailed out again. In other words the KKKrakas were afraid that the dipshit Aussies would kick off round 2 with the Maori and get them all killed.
So the Aussies weren't more racist. NZ settlers were just trying to keep things on the DL. Being afraid of repercussions for being racist isn't being less racist.
NZ is like Canada. The government is systemic racism personified but they say sorry as they twist the knife.
Trying to read up on it now, but to my knowledge (which is out of date by a few years) neither Australia nor Canada have nation-wide programs which are analogous to the Treaty of Waitangi claims process which has paid out significant compensation and granted rights to indigenous peoples?
The closest I can find is some local land back program in Tasmania (where most of the Aboriginal people were already genocided) and some vague mentions of modern treaties between the Canadian govt and First Nations groups surrounding limited rights and land back.
Like yeah maybe the average NZ KKKraka isn't any less racist than an Australian or Canadian (debatable imo, but not falsifiable either way) but NZ seems to still be the least bad Anglo settler colony because it's still trying to do something tangible to uphold the original treaty between the Maori and the Anglos.
Obviously it's not enough and will never be enough, especially with a historically flawed process and a new right wing govt. Least bad is still a loooong way off from good.

I followed your link and i think those thieves probably stole the idea from the Dutch https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagelslag
Damn. Imagine having to copy culinary ideas from the Dutch.
It's actually OK to make new kinds of sushi. All the good sushi isn't authentically Japanese anyway.

coloniser mindset
I think everyone should experience such a mindset (splattered all over the pavement and photographed as a piece for MoMA)
It truly is something uniquely European, to go somewhere that is not Europe and then complain that there are too many non-Europeans.
It really isn't that bizarre. "Australian nationalist" just means "neo-nazi" but too cowardly to say it.
It's weird to be a nationalist for a nation with a foreign head of state.
Most normal white person: thinks about his imaginary wife sucking BBC and then getting angry about it
Dude I hate it when my imaginary wife sucks off the British Broadcasting Corporation :(
I always think something else when people use the acronym for Bath and Body Works.
and here we see the "Muh Historical Accuracy"-nerds shed their paper thin pretense and say what they actually always mean when they utter those words
Gonna make a video game called White Genocide and it’s just a dating sim where there are no pairings between a white man and a white woman
One pairing between a white man and white woman and you find out they're both trans 3 hours into their arc
THE GAME IS SET IN A MIAMI PASTICHE OF COURSE THERES A LOT OF BLACK PEOPLE????
That's just so fucking embarrassing, imagine posting that
It's Miami, not Naperville
I love when dipshit racists get mad. They're such losers.
GTA vii should only feature whites if they’re antagonists
Gta7 should be a Michael Lewis adaptation where white people are just committing financial crimes against each other .

I thought people played video games to escape reality?
Just like that time people were raging and seething over women in war games because of "muh realism"?

Complete aside, there are clearly some mayos in the top right.
these people have never been to miami ever
you can absolutely be in parts of miami and the outlying neighborhoods (like liberty city or little haiti) and not see white people at all and i know this because ive been there
i bet these assholes would complain if you goto bakeries and cafes in miami in the game and nobody speaks english, which is another common thing in miami but you learn a few spanish words if you want the best coffee and pastries money can buy
