Looks a lot more like a cube than mine does. Can't deny that. :tup:

The Australian government instituted a 'baby bonus' (free money for popping out a brat) back in 1912, but it was only applicable to white people to ensure white control of the country.

Australia: Racist. FACT.

We were particularly racist, and still have a little bit of racist undertone here. Our most famous racist policy was the "White Australia" policy. Wiki it (as I couldn't be bothered searching and linking it).

Regarding the snake fact, it's even worse when you whittle it down to the top ten. Something like 8 of the top ten most venomous snakes in the world. It's simply fucking life threatening to go about certain places here.

As represented most famously by the quip by Arthur Caldwell (then Labour Party opposition leader) "Two Wongs don't make a white" when arguing for the continuation of the zero asian immigration policy in parliament. Late 50s or early 60s, I think...

However, the current generation is considerably less racist, IMO...

When walking in various bush locations in Esperance, WA one spring many years ago, we had to stop for snake after snake (mostly highly venomous Brown Snakes) to cross the path. However, if you were patient, and observant, you survived... They didn't actively chase you...
