Topic: The history of Australia

Anonymous A started this discussion 2 days ago #127,101

Basically: originally there were some aboriginal people living there. Then later, some British blokes were miserable in Britain with the foggy conditions and smog living under the oppressive monarch, so they got on a boat, sailed to the furthest point away on the planet they could possibly find. When they got there, they discovered a mostly desert island continent infested with giant spiders. So naturally they thought, "Hey this place sucks, wouldn’t this be a great place to dump all our criminals?" Then later those criminals formed a democratic society and killed off the native population and made peace with the spiders and lived happily ever after in their tarantula infested den.

Now we need a new island to dump all our criminals.

There’s nothing wrong with the old island. Australia is still there.

If anything it’s probably more humane than executing them if you think about it.

At times. Read The Distant Shore. The early waves were dumped on the beach without provisions or supplies so it was slow starvation in the wilderness.
