40,000 years and the peak of their culture was music that consisted of banging two sticks together and blowing through a hollow tube, and dot paintings that have all the technique and sophistication of children's drawings.
And yet people want to put them up on a pedestal and say things like they are the traditional caretakers of the land.

The worst part in North America is they build casinos, drive F150s and are massive drinkers, but we're somehow supposed to believe they are "stewards of nature". What. What does a Casino do for forest conservation ?

To be fair, it's the richest handful of them that do that.
The rest are drunk all day because that's about all there is to do when you're living in miserable little villages with no future, desperately clinging to a dead way of life instead of just facing the music and accepting that that the 1500's are never coming back.
It's even worse. They live in Dickie Moores. I don't remember that being a dead way of life, I don't think those trailers were around back pre-colonial days.
I doubt you could find a single native from North America living as if it were 1750.
My point is that that many of them sequester themselves away from wider US society for no reason. The reservations, the areas 'governed' by <insert native nation here>, serve no function other keeping some tribal aristocrats in some illusion of power.
Their existence actively encourages natives toward staying in communities where there is and never will be any good education or opportunity.
How many potential John Romeros have instead spent their lives getting blind drunk in a trailer or a glorified wooden tool shed just so that they could live next to their own people and send their children to a joke of a school where they can learn to (barely) write an economically useless language with no vocabulary for anything important in the modern world..
lol I was thinking about the one from the 70s or the 80s with the presenter wearing a suit, and it was a similar set up, a white person played something that's actually music on the piano and followed by the abbos banging sticks on something like a hollow tree trunk, somehow this version is worse with a fat tranny/faggot crooning and playing the piano with fat sausage fingers
Ahaha, I haven't seen that version! Hopefully someone's saved it on youtube or something because it's hilarious seeing aboriginal music compared to modern music.
Hate to break it to ya champ but the dot paintings were invented by a white guy in the 70s in order to create shit to sell to tourists. Between that and all the dreamtime stories I was made to learn in school (even worse for kids now), and the welcome to country Ernie Dingo wank, I'm sure the majority of so-called aboriginal "culture" is just made up to make them seem like equals of the Europeans who CHOSE to live like proto-hominids eating bugs and tree bark.
This is in aid of the narrative that the land was "stolen" or conquered, like it was a perfect utopia that the evil white men just claimed for themselves. In reality it was a harsh, barren land that needed to be settled and made into something livable. The early settlers were hard as fuck pioneers and nothing like the average Aussie male and female of today.

What a load of horse shit.

You're right, sort of.
