    Can't really understand people who actually think January 26 is an appropriate day to celebrate. In fact, I wonder WTF is wrong with them.

        I'm 39 and remember when the 26th was completely uncontroversial. But culture changes and some people can't handle the change

        I think it is an inferiority complex where they can't rationalise that compromise for someone else isn't defeat for them.

        History is one of the least appreciated subjects in High School. Australians forget (oblivious) the Dutch discovered country.
