The radical political activists act like their toxic vision of Australia has been in vogue forever. When in reality the majority of this insanity is very recent and very new.
Ernie Dingo invented the Welcome to Country “ceremony” in the 1970s. However outside of government and universities, the acknowledgements were rare. It has only been in the past few years that this stuff has spread like a virus.
In 2022, there were 4 councils in Australia that refused to hold citizenship ceremonies on Australia Day. The City of Sydney (no surprise there) and three others in Melbourne.
Today there are 81 local councils that do not hold citizenship ceremonies on Australia Day. With the majority citing the reason as “protect first nations people from feeling uncomfortable”.
What sort of message does this send to new citizens? Aren’t they becoming Australians?
This is what they do. Their goal is to destroy Australia and everything that has been built here. When Australians are united they know they don’t have a chance - so they try to rip us all apart by inventing fake grievances.
This is why our work is so important. It won't stop on it's own, it will get worse exponentially. Thankfully we're fighting people who are wrong and crazy. All it takes is for good people to do something and we win. If you are able please consider supporting our mission.
