What misapplications and criticisms alike of Christian notions of forgiveness have in common is the failure to recognize that Christ's forgiveness is only accessible by those who repent.

The Eureka Stockade
This unrest came to a head at dawn on 3 December 1854, at the now legendary Eureka Stockade. Here, 120 angry miners revolted against police and soldiers, leaving thirty-five men dead. The courage, resistance to authority and support for freedom displayed by the miners has shaped ideas of Australian nationhood ever since.
Raffaello Carboni, an active participant, relates the story behind the myth. His eyewitness account, first published in 1855, vividly and accurately evokes the excitement, drama and horror of the Eureka Stockade, and its aftermath."
by Raffaello Carboni (1855)"Italian revolutionary Raffaello Carboni reached the Ballarat goldfields in 1853 looking for adventure and wealth. Instead, he found growing unrest among the miners, who were straining against harsh and oppressive government regulations.

The academic Left in Australia is fixated upon whitewashing Aboriginal history to make them out to be noble savages which lived in a kind of primitive utopia. This is done by straight up lying in service of a victimology with the clear aim of justifying the oppression of White Australians.
One fact which they have suppressed and I find particularly of note is the very real historical phenomenon of Aboriginal cannibalism. One particularly disgusting documented example in this essay detailing the evidence for the practice is the infanticide of their excess children for the purpose of..dinner! Infanticide however was such a common practice in Aboriginal society that I guess it was only a matter of time before they thought to eat them.
Rev. George Taplin (1831–79), a prominent Congregationalist missionary to Aborigines in the Murray Valley, stated that in the early 1860s, “one-third of the infants which were born were put to death. Every child which was born before the one which preceded it could walk was destroyed, because the mother was regarded as incapable of carrying two.”
I mean what a truly utopian and noble society which we evil white man ruthlessly dominated with our evil imperialist impulses!
I mean to be fair it does seem like the abos were mostly eating people who died anyway rather than killing people specifically for the purpose of eating them, well except for a particular apparently especially tasty group.. 😋🤣
Aboriginal cannibals demonstrated a number of distinctive culinary preferences. It appears that they greatly favoured the taste of Chinese people, whom they found and killed in remote areas of settlement, over the apparently saltier taste of Europeans.
Maybe there is a natural solution to the Chinese problem after all! One struggle?

Reverend W. H. Pownall on the Lambing Flat Riots of 1861: “The anger of European elements grew as the Chinese warmed up to [mining], action was decided upon: about 3,000 men accompanied by a band playing “Rule Britannia” marched from Tipperary Gully to Victoria…
William Guthrie Spence on the anti-Chinese movement and Clunes Rebellion of 1873:
“The anti-Chinese movement was one of the early developments of democratic feeling in Australia. So strong was it that in 1861 it led to riot amongst the diggers at Lambing Flat, Burrangong, New South Wales. They drove the Chinese off the field, some of the pig-tailed heathens losing their lives. There were at that time 38,000 Chinese in the two colonies of New South Wales and Victoria— 12,988 in the former, and 24,732 in the latter.
But for the action of the gold diggers and restriction of Chinese immigration by a poll tax and otherwise, Australia would have been practically a Chinese possession. The same strong feeling that caused the Lambing Flat diggers to revolt actuated the miners of Clunes, Victoria, in 1876. The directors of the Lothair Gold Mining Company decided to introduce Chinese labor. The miners, who were all members of the A.M.A., determined to resist…

The Chinese were to be brought from Creswick, eleven miles distant. Two coaches were filled with Chinese and placed under police escort. The miners had mounted pickets out, and were informed of every move. There are two roads to the town, and that on the west side, where the mine was situated, was blockaded by the miners. On discovering this the coaches were turned, and, crossing a deep creek, they made for the town by the other road. The miners rushed across, having about a mile to run, and hastily improvised a barricade, effectually blocking the way so far as the coaches were concerned. The excitement and cheering were great, men, women, and children joining in the resistance. Near by was a heap of road metal, and arming herself with a few stones a sturdy North of Ireland woman, without shoes or stockings, mounted the barricade as the coaches drew up…

As she did so she called out to the other women, saying: “Come on, you Cousin Jinnies; bring me the stones and I will fire them.” The sergeant in charge of the police presented his carbine at the woman, and ordered her to desist. Her answer was to bare her breast and say to him:
“Shoot away, and be damned to ye; better be shot than starved to death.” With the words she threw a stone, cutting the cheek of the officer. After that stones flew rapidly; the horses began to plunge, and the Chinese to yell; whilst the terrified director (by name Solomon) in charge crawled into the boot of the coach for safety. In less time than it takes to tell it, the horses were turned and driven off whence they had come, the Chinese invasion was repulsed, and no Chinaman has ever gained a footing in Clunes even unto this day.”

Moving on a few years, over in Canada we have what is known as the ‘Anti-Oriental riots of 1907.’ These riots took place in Vancouver, British Columbia, with the rioters displaying similar sentiments to historic Aussie union men, and the events - and British Columbian history - bearing extreme similarity to the Lambing Flat riots and the story of White Australia. Just like in Australia, White Canadians were being driven out of the labour force and replaced by low-quality Asiatic labour. This had been quite a big problem for many decades - leading the government to enact multiple pieces of nevertheless poor legislation restricting Chinese and Japanese immigration - and was exacerbated strongly by the anti-Chinese riots in California and Washington. Whether the Canadians were inspired by the Australian anti-Chinese movement as well, I’m not sure. Anyways, onto the account of the riot, which lasted for several days:

In 1907, the Asiatic Exclusion League was formed in British Columbia by members of a working men’s association concerned about the impact of the continued presence of poorly paid Chinese workers. On September 8th, 1907, upset that 11,000 Asians had immigrated to Canada that year (this is because of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway essentially begging the government in Early 1907 to let in 10,000 Japanese workers to build its line in Northern BC), and hearing rumours that another boatload of immigrants was about to arrive, some thousands of marchers met in downtown Vancouver…

The protesters marched their way through the streets carrying banners which said 'Keep Canada White' and 'Stop the Yellow Peril' whilst singing Rule Britannia. More than ten thousand people assembled outside the downtown city hall. They also burned an effigy of Dunsmuir, the coal-mining baron on Vancouver Island, who “dared” to hire Chinese. After giving wild speeches against the Chinese, leaders encouraged the crowd to move towards nearby Chinatown and Little Tokyo. Four hours of rioting began with the breaking of windows and looting of Asian businesses.“
“Very simply…what we face in British Columbia is this – whether or not the civilization which finds its highest exemplification in the Anglo-Saxon British rule, shall or shall not prevail in the Dominion of Canada. … I have no ill-feeling against people coming from Asia personally, but I reaffirm that the national life of Canada will not permit any large degree of immigration from Asia. … I intend to stand up absolutely on all occasions on this one great principle – of a white country and a white British Columbia”
