Steele,

" Have a good look at your motivations old chap, they appear to be pretty average in my book."

My motivation is to seek the truth and to expose fraud, and, hopefully, to help stop the bull that Pascoe has written being taught as truth to school children.

What's your objection to the truth?

Dear mhaze,

Oh this is going to be good.

Okay, firstly, when you say; "And since the page I linked was really just a conglomeration of our sites".

Are you one of the Quadrant misfits as well? What is your contributor name?

Next you can link me to the page on the site which says Ellen Tucker-Moore is the editor much less even real.

Likewise the 'contributors' you have mentioned aren't real people either are they. Or perhaps you do have evidence to contradict this, if so are you able to produce it?

More than happy to be proved wrong but I'm not holding my breath.

The floor is yours. Lol.

Dear Is Mise,

The "bull that Pascoe has written"?

Have you even read the bloody book? I know Bolt most certainly hasn't.

What are the top three things in Dark Emu you feel are bull? Or are you just parroting your clique because the task is beyond you?

Whatcha got big boy?

Pascoe's heritage is a mere unwarranted excuse !

SR,

That 'massacre map' has some problems in SA, namely evidence. In the north-east of SA in the late nineteenth century, Lutheran missions operated between 1866 and 1917, and the area was well-populated by many sheep stations from about 1870. Most were also ration depots for the local Aboriginal people.

In fact, many like the biggest sheep station in the world, Cordillo Downs, with 65,000 sheep, and a shearing shed two hundred yards long, employed perhaps hundreds of local Aboriginal people - as did the mission. So there was hardly likely to be any massacre of Aboriginal people in that context.

Back to topic: so there is no evidence that Bruce Pascoe has any Aboriginal ancestry, at all. Yet he is employed in an Aboriginal position at the University of Technology, Sydney. He has been given awards as an Indigenous author, amounting to tens of thousands of dollars. In those senses, he is not just a fraud but a thief.

And he fabricates quotes from those early observers' notebooks. They did not write what he says they did. And if whitefellas were so intent on destroying all traces of towns, fences, fields, etc., [how the hell, I can't imagine, unless they didn't exist], why would they write what he claims they wrote ?

All human groups in the world were foragers barely twelve thousand years ago. In Australia, they faced perhaps the harshest living conditions, and yet survived. Surely we should be celebrating that ?

Joe

Dear loudmouth2,

You claim; "And he fabricates quotes from those early observers' notebooks. They did not write what he says they did."

Absolute crock of dog's vomit. Name one single instance of him fabricating anything in his book Dark Emu.

Have you read the thing either? Or are you another mindless parrot?

Just one single fabrication, that's all.
