I don't care what he's on.....besides I thought it was New Zealand.

moons the commie comment was pointless vk stuff, the main point was i am shocked your common anti-big- gov sentiment is different to your reality.

Are you talking about me personally or what?
 

geez moons WTF?, no not you personally, referring to a stereotypical US sentiment that hates gov, or should i say gov.com

That might be because it's not our choice.
Who you thinks running the show?
As for communism, it's not a bad concept, but as with everything else corruption defeats the purpose.
 

i am clueless re politics, i think the only safe course is that power should not be too concentrated or too powerful.

as far as who is running the show, dunno, but my guess the reality is much more mundane than the conspiracies that abound the subject. 

Personally I like the Tribal system.

made an edit above you, apparently the aus aborigine is the only true communist that have ever been recorded, every part of the hunting/gathering was bought back and shared, private ownership did not exist and they were owned by the land, not the other way around.  this has made assimilation difficult. they did barter tho with villagers from indo.

glad to say i did catch some remnants of this wonderful culture in it's uncompromised form as a youth, it's those things that i remember most as the high points in my life and made the rest of it worth living. 

as for above, it's not a conspiracy and your involved in it too know it or not.

And what happened to the Aborigine?

I watched the last band of wild Aborigine's come in from the bush on the news, don't remember what year.

experts from our national  military museum  are still arguing if there was a "war' against the aborigine or just a genocide, given that the aborigine could not produce any meaningful resistance in terms of force that their organised extermination can not be technically called a war.

the entire population of natives in tasmania was 100% exterminated/genocide/mass murder whatever you want to call it, i don't think anything else anywhere has been that thorough.

in my state which was the least populated by whites and last to become a state there was some events that could be called battles of sorts, then gold was found and the population followed and the killing started with lots of payback and no mercy. one tribe was hunted along the mary river and caught and slaughtered right at the spot where a school now stands, the oldest school in the state actually. 

smallpox was distributed to aborigines on blankets and wiped out a whole bunch, even breathing on the desert aborigines by europeans that have survived the plagues and high population density killed them as they had zero immunity to things we had already evolved past.
 
babies were taken by the church and raised as whites, refer "the stolen generation" guy taught me to track was naturally lighter skinned and the hunters on the killing party could not kill him cos he looked to "human" so they dumped at a cattle station, i met him when he was old - awesome guy. 

the rest got rounded up and thrown into concentration camps run by the church, the camps have recently been secularized but are still there.

consider moons these people were officially listed as fauna
