        You do realise there was no landing on the 26th, no massacres, no federation ... nothing 'bad' happened on that date so changing this arbitrarily chosen date to another one will solve nothing. If the 26th 'offends' then so will any other date.

        You're right. No date will satisfy them. The real intent is to deny the central position of Anglo-Australian culture; that created a modern, prosperous and fair Australia; in our new multi-culty dystopia. Imagine if Muslims or Chinese had conquered the aboriginals?

        Cultural marxism? You know what that means, right? Or did you just see it on the Daily Stormer website?

        To me, as a Migrant myself, that is simply the date when Australia, as I know it, started. With all UP and Down sides (way more Up's)! You can't change the past by changing the date!? That is pathetic. Work on a better future.

        I guess 30% will be going into their places of employment to work (at normal hourly rates) in protest... or I wonder if will they take the day off?
