"If you wanted a unified nation, you would not start with politicians expressing these hateful views for cynical objectives, showing an utter lack of civic responsibility and good faith."

The hypocrisy is blatant. The only difference between THIS and the Bondi beach shootings is that the IED did not explode as intended.

The bogans weren't too happy about him (Brandan Koschel) being arrested.

"the celebration of our nation should be a matter of unity. It can’t be when the date marks #InvasionDay / #SurvivalDay for many, when about a third of us don’t support it."

It is about truth, respect, and listening to First Nations voices - past, present, and future. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

And #SurvivalDay 2026 was a special event, sobering, reflective & uplifting. Well done to all the participants, especially the younger ones. I hope they all felt the love & respect of the substantial crowd. A glimpse into the "always was..." of Ballaarat's long history before colonisation..
Fuck Australia Day. Thinking of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people today, and all of their ancestors who were killed in Australia’s genocide which began today, Jan 26, 1788 when the first fleet landed. Today is not a day to celebrate.

Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "The formal establishment of the Colony of New South Wales did not however occur on 26 January as is commonly assumed. It did not occur until 7 February 1788, when the formal proclamation of the colony and of Arthur Phillip's governorship were read out. The vesting of all land in the reigning monarch King George III also dates from 7 February 1788."
Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "The first Australia Day was established in response to Australia's involvement in World War I. In 1915, Ellen "Ellie" Wharton Kirke MBE, née Clements, mother of four servicemen, thought up the idea of a national day, with the specific aim of raising funds for wounded soldiers, and the term was coined to stir up patriotic feelings. In 1915 a committee to celebrate Australia Day was formed, and the date chosen was 30 July, on which many fund-raising efforts were run to support the war effort. It was also held in July in subsequent years of World War I: on 28 July 1916, 27 July 1917, and 26 July 1918."
Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "Historian Ken Inglis wrote in 1967 that Australia Day was not celebrated publicly in Canberra at that time."
Screenshot from the Wikipedia entry for Australia Day: "After 1988, participation in Australia Day increased, and in 1994 all states and territories began to celebrate a unified public holiday on 26 January – regardless of the day of the week – for the first time. Previously, some states had celebrated the public holiday on a Monday or Friday to provide a long weekend."
Sovereignty was never ceded. We've changed the date several times throughout history - we can do it again, with intent, empathy and acknowledgement of our past.

Thanks for turning out in big numbers #Naarm to acknowledge that the 26th was the date of the colonial invasion of the country we call Australia. The national use of the date is recent. We don’t have to party of the day that signalled the start of genocide. #SurvivalDay #Auspol #Melbourne

Invasion Day marks what my ancestors did badly and wrongly etc. You cannot wipe that away because you heard about an Aboriginal man who was claiming two pay checks etc!

#AustraliaDay 26Jan is the day the British established a penal colony in Sydney. It is a #DayOfMourning for First Nations peoples: invasion, dispossession, colonisation, genocide. Mourn with those who mourn. 😔 #InvasionDay #SurvivalDay
Just a taste of #InvasionDay #Music before tomorrow. Enjoy.
