SR,

I don't think so.

To summarise:

* . Pascoe is not Indigenous, but has a well-paid position as if he is.

* . Pascoe has fabricated and distorted observations by early observers such as Sturt, Mitchell, Lindsay and others.

These will come back to bite us all.

Dear loudmouth2,

Me: “You have a chance of at least a semblance of credibility, I suggest you take it.”

You: “I don't think so.”

Well that about sums it up doesn't it. You make an egregious error yet refuse to acknowledge it. Instead you double down. This is right out of the alt-right play book.

How on earth do you expect people to take you seriously when you do this kind of thing? If you can't respect the general rules of dialogue why should anyone respect a single thing you have to say?

It really can't be a pleasant place to be in, only you can make that change.

This site goes into Pascoe's ancestry in detail.

Perhaps Steele, you can point out where they are wrong and prove that Pascoe isn't lying.,

Dear Is Mise,

Mate it is a wordpress site so it is hardly going to be a serious link is it.

Tell you what though, I will, against my better judgement, commit to clicking your link if you promise me there is an identifiable and verifiable author.

Until then why on earth bother going anywhere near it.

The cynic in me asks, for this fraud to have gone so far up the ladder to actually be recognised as an authentic piece of work, he must have expert, and govt assistance and guidance.
There is enough inconsistencies and questions to consider this guy a fraud.
If he is in fact, squeaky clean, there would be no questions or doubts about him and his allegations and in fact his book and it's veracity.
Knowing the workings of govts and especially the ministers and how they are in it for what they can get out of it, leaves me very curious as to how this guy managed to get this book into the school curriculum.
I want to believe that he had 'inside' and influential help and guidance, because I imagine it pretty rare that something as important as teaching and history, needs to be absolutely without questions or doubts, which this has too many to be considered a truthful and correct collection of information to teach children with.
