But the argument was that this was an emotionally charged topic and you displayed that while appearing to argue the opposite.
As a fellow Australian, I understand the over sensitivity, especially due to the Voice crap that's going on atm.
As for generalizing racially, I agree, it makes no sense. Which is why the voice thing sounds stupid to me.
I feel like there are two groups of indigenous peoples growing in Australia. What I call the 'technically aboriginals' and 'actual aboriginals' and I realize this might marginalize those with partial ancestry.
I often wonder if the voice is just being pushed by super liberal very light skinned aboriginals (that to me probably never suffered real discrimination) or outback dark skinned tribal bush aboriginals (that are discriminated against on site). I feel like the more bush you go, the more conservative you get...idk
ALL that happened was that I made a generalization, and other people wanted to contest it because, well, they could. It's not more complicated than that.
It's basically if I said most action movies have a car chase or gun fight, and someone wanted to die on the hill claiming that that generalization is inaccurate and not all action movies have to have a gun fight or car chase.
I agree though that the discrimination of aboriginals is politicized though, and it shouldn't be.
Got it.
Do you though? I doubt it.IF Z is a synonym for Y, doing X to Z is doing X to Y.
Australia? (big country) .. Western Desert (kind of specific) .. Redfern (very urban) .. etc.
Can you roughly indicate on a map?
There's a lot of different language groups and cultures, a lot of religuous beliefs, and a broad spread of skills both old and new.

( FWiW I grew up in the Kimberley not far from the Mungalalu Truscott Airbase and am currently on Ballardong land )
Where did you grow up that simultaneously had a large Aboriginals and Native American population?
They presumably asked for a source for both claims, your only provided one says you lived among them. Either you grew up among both populations or have provided no source for one of your claims.
I still have no idea if you grew up among Aboriginals or Native Americans, or what makes you so confident about the other race/culture's beliefs.
Context makes it clear which claim they were asking for.
In any case, I'm not providing a source. This is a somewhat commonly known thing, and I was speaking from personal experience. If you're still really unsure where I grew up, you can probably figure it out from my other comments.
Feel free to search for whatever you find sufficient to corroborate my claims, or continue to be skeptical (as you should). I don't mind either way.
Which makes you Speaker for the Religuous Beliefs of the Bulk of Aboriginal Australians?
Yeah, right .. just keep digiging that hole deeper Kartiya.
