For clarity, there are real desert tribes out there who don’t speak much English… But this is distinctly not any of those languages, and is completely and utterly unhelpful, to pretty much anyone, especially if they speak even the slightest bit of (plain) English…

It’s just utterly, utterly bonkers. 🤦🏻‍♂️

McClown is clearly even fucking dumber than I thought, lol…

With this video, I can see just what kinda person abducted abo children and used them as servants all the way to the 70s.

Yeah. :-(

He's ex-Navy, too. A real nasty piece of work. Possibly sociopathic.

Grew up in NSW. Went to University in Qld. Now pretends that WA is "the whole world", and "Why would anyone want to travel to the rest of the continent??", even though his own fucking family live there...

Absolute jerk.

I hate this country, rn.

Sorry for the rant. :-/

Oh, no, this was informative. Don't ever feel bad about sharing information. I knew he was a piece of shit from his actions, you confirmed it.

McGowan scares me, actually. Gunner (Northern Territory) has the frothing, bulging eyes and yelling of the psychopath downpat, and Andrews (Victoria), the bullying, blustering, baldfaced-lying-without-even-breaking-stream insane rhetoric, but it is McGowan (this guy) who is the calm, cruel, unfeeling one, even as he takes people's rights away...

Perhaps it is just because he is an ex military officer, but it honestly worries me. Normal people do not behave like that, while spouting frankly genocidal rhetoric, in a disturbingly calm manner...

Absolutely bizarre state of affairs.

That he is not being taken out is all the evidence you need to know that most of your countrymen are borderline insane at this point. They literally believe themselves holy and protected, and that you are subhuman. This is the next step before they begin extermination begins. The black guy is finding out now. There is already murders, not when or if, this level is not reached without bodies already.

You mean the natives that Australia went full fearporn over the fact a single coof particle would kill them all? With COVID becoming endemic amongst the populated cities, even in hospital workforces, even if you believed all the propaganda it would be a bad idea to bring any Typhoid Marys into the native lands "for their own good".

"I'm from the government, and we're here to help." is one of the most frightening lines one can hear. The natives are apparently smarter than most.

Honestly, the WA government is so much worse than anyone here even realises (yet)...

First, this, a month ago: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-12-21/purnululu-heat-death-kimberley-wa/100717568

And then, a while back, but even more relevantly: https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/remote-indigenous-towns-fear-trauma-and-dislocation-as-bulldozers-roll-in-20141128-11vvl9.html

I've seen less monstrous assholes beheading infidels in ISIS videos. That poor auntie, she looks like he's got her family hostage.

Did you see the way she glances sideways, after "mumble mumble needle safe"..??

It's fucking depressing AF, man, living here, and seeing this sort of shit all the time...

"My" state doesn't even have a Kriol. It has something even worse - a made up conlang (palwa kani, stylised all lowercase, to doxx myself even further), invented in the last three decades, which they actively pretend people speak, even while having to invent new words for pretty much everything, because at the moment the vocab is fucking tiny...

Literally no one actually speaks it, and yet there is now entire signs written "in it", and they pretend to conduct "ceremonies" in it, FML...

I know have some understanding of how the original Yiddish immigrants to "Mandatory Palestine" must have felt, when forced to abandon their language, and speak Modern Hebrew...

sigh...

My ancestral people on my mom's side are performing plains Indians dances and rituals because that shit was popularized by hollywood despite having a distinct culture and language as part of the 5 civilized tribes. My Irish ancestors are culturally english and continental, complete with being known for clog dancing that's actually from mainland europe despite having a rich history.

This shit is not surprising one fucking bit. Integration does not mean erasure, despite what these deluded cunts say. It's being forced to conform to the violent majority's insanity that erases who they truly were.

So they speak like Australian native ebonics? Because if their language is that close it's pretty insulting to think they wouldn't have a grasp on English without needing a translator.

I wonder what happened - apparently they have their own languages.

I assume he just grabbed his cleaning lady and assumed she spoke “native” and asked her to translate?

Haven't some African governments effectively done that but with sign language? Grab any random guy, have them gesticulate next to the speaker, and call it sign language? I think a famous example was at Nelson Mandela's funeral. Let me see if I can corroborate that.

"I'm from the government and I'm here to help..." I believe the last time the Aborigines of this country were told that they had their children stolen.

I hate living in this stinking country right now...I really do. This country continues to prove itself to be a complete and utter embarrassment.

Is this pidgin?

Pretty interesting how the more retarded peoples all develop a retarded version of English, and the elites are happy to oblige.
