‘Enormous vibe shift’: Australians ‘no longer silent’ on their national day

[@Prognosis__]

I believe people are observing the pro Palestine protests and see that they are anti Australian. These same folk are the ones who want to abolish Australia Day.

[@Poorlineforeva]

Beliefs are not facts. Nobody wants to cancel Australia Day they just want the date changed from when Sydney was declared a penal colony.

Immigrants only become a problem when they stay their welcome on expired visas, think they deserve permanency straight away, cause issues in the community & when govt allows them to migrate with no caps flooding the country when housing demands cannot keep up. Worked fine back int he 40s to the early 00s, now its almost beyond repair with current govt and policies in place.

[@tommythldronestudio4416]

@@thewayneflyinghigh9128 I am originally from China actually, but I go to college at United States, where I witnessed the landslide victory of Trump last year. I personally is a supporter of traditional values and conservative ideas, because I don't want to see either the US or Australia turn into communist country as China. I don't want to lie about my origin 😂, so I am being honest here. I travelled to Australia from December 2024 to Jan 2025, and I would like to say, it is still that beautiful home of Aussies in my heart, and I believe in you guys that you will take back this beautiful country back just like what people did in the US. Australia remains one of my favorite countries worldwide, and I can't wait to see it in a much better place next time I visit it. Thank you for reading and god bless you! MAKE ALBO GO AWAY!

As you give yourself the largest pay rise in years indexed for as long as you draw a breath. While every day hard working taxpayers have to pay for your bloated remuneration. While you and your bum lickers have their snouts deep in the taxpayers money trough. That's offensive.

YEAH YEAH , i know alot died of diseases and food changes , im not an anti aboriginal pom . we never were . you cant invade a country , that has no identity . you cant ruin one culture , when that one culture has 100's of cultures with 100's of different languages , multi culture , has proven that here in australia . the british , and everyone else that was here in the beginning . wanted one flag , one ppl , yes we had restrictions on who came here , until the 80's . to protect the ppl . and the australian way of life , question ? who doesnt want to protect their country , and way of life ? , so why is australia being called racist . for doing what every other country does ? wont mention any names , but can you imagine , what would happen to you . if you tried to live your way , in some other countries ? no . australia is one of the best countries on this planet . and the ppl are the best youll find anywhere , we need to protect that image , even if it means , going back to banning certain ppl . they know , and australia knows , who they are . political correctness crap , just stops us naming them .

Why do you like stirring this pot, your perverse joy you get from this is obscene! We are lucky but this needs to be an educated vote remind people that it's only been a public holiday since 1994! Full information is needed. 1949 established Australian citizenship laws making all people born in Australia citzens, prior to this we were British subjects. 1935 Australia day was celebrated on Jan 26th in all states except NSW! The issue is Jan 26th, it would be akin to us praising Germany if they celebrated Sept 1st, the start of WWIi.
