      @@dsp6373 they can be thankful that it was the British that colonised Australia, and not some other country - the aboriginal people might have been erased altogether. Eventually a more advanced people would’ve colonised at that time in history. They weren’t being productive with the land.

      @@ObsoleteOddity aboriginal peoples of the New World (Australia and Americas) had land ownership systems that were very different to Old World systems. Old World land ownership was personally owned, sold, and purchased, by a legal person (be it an individual, lord, monarch, or corporation). New World systems that was very alien, because it was owned by the nation/tribe communally, it couldn’t be purchased by or sold to an individual/s.
      Thus, how the land was maintained was also very different. You didn’t usually have agriculture of fields, like in the Old World where crops from the fields and the livestock on them were also owned and traded by the property owners. In the New World systems the entire echo system was care-taken by the entire nation.
      Rather than a field, the nation members maintained entire plains and hillsides, carefully balancing the system with flora and fauna with the result being expanses of what seemed to be natural landscapes but were in fact manicured agriculture on a massive scale, essentially regional botanical gardens. And wildlife was also “herded” to maintain species populations in areas with stable numbers. Clans then hunted and gathered their expanses of territory in rotation and sustainable.
      When European settlers saw that, they just assumed it was natural, it wasn’t, much of the landscape was artificially designed by the aboriginal nation as a whole. And so, when Europeans arrived they took the land to be without owners and without productivity, and on that basis, logically, the dispossessed the aboriginal inhabitants.
      Still today, many people don’t realize that’s the actual history, and repeat that the land was not owned by anyone and that they weren’t being productive with the land.
      I don’t blame you for having your world view, because what I’m telling you isn’t ordinarily taught, and so you repeat not just what you’ve been told, but also what you assume, as the first settlers made their assumptions, whether in good faith or bad faith is irrelevant. It is what it is.

    The best thing living in seventies I was young and frisky and there was so much human activity that didn’t have regulations rules insurances set by the system. bloody wild pub music and big music festivals cheap no cops or they just watched and laughed at topless hippies and ignored stoned drivers no breathalyser so drinking stoning driving was rife. Group mixed homes shared cheap rent and sex was
    liberal no STDs. Experimental theatre music exploded with new perceptions of hope and great change for a richer Australia culturally spiritually engineered by LSD Psilocybin and seeking tribal caring enlightenment
    I believed our generation would open the world to new possibilities based on humanism and love.
    I still carry that weight in my heart .

    I’m almost certain the surfy at 0:54 is Midget Farrelly. I was laminating WAVE skis for him about this time at Brookvale. He was a pathological non smoker and health nut but it didn’t do him much good. Man it looks like him. He won the world championship only about 5 years earlier; same T-Shirt and brief case the lot. The over exposed shot diminishes his ranga roots a bit though.
    “Throw your butts in the Acetone bucket and your sacked” can’t say I blame him there.
