Stokes Arrested

[OverratedSanity]

You know, I've had it with this narrative and it's disappointing to see people like yourself perpetuate it here. It's borderline racist insinuating present day Australia is a penal colony. The country couldn't be anything less, hell we have more freedom than in the United " TV licence please or you're going to jail" Kingdom. I'm related to no convict, my ancestors came here to work in the mines for coal, hard coin and all of that.

Actually, it is racist.

Some would say it's beyond repugnant

 

[sledger]

Yeah poor even by *****'s fairly dismal standards tbh.

Could at least throw in a few Steve Irwin jokes.

[mr_mister]

yeah agree with gnske. basically i don't see why a poster's country of birth needs to be brought up at all

 

[vcs]

I don't Gnske is being serious there. When was the last time Gnske made a serious post?

Agree 100 on this, see this typical slag off at Aussies all the time from his like in public fora / platforms and notice how when confronted with historical facts about their own region they get their knickers in a twist.

Congrats on getting a 100 internet points for being a dumbass.

All humans are overwhelmingly the ancestors of slaves, criminals and rapists. And the convicts shipped to Australia were mostly the result of needlessly harsh laws designed to pacify the poor. The Brits invented hundred of laws to get the poor killed or jailed so as not to have to deal with them and/or the possibility of social unrest. Many were also shipped to Australia. If that's a blight on anyone, it's a blight on the 19th century English ruling class.

No, I checked 23andMe. 0% convict ancestry was confirmed.

This post however is so utterly wrong.

 

[fredfertang]

If anyone on this forum claims they've never committed a number of criminal offences they ain't telling the truth

Can you imagine if someone was actually serious about this?

It's not racist. Just like saying British people have bad teeth, or all Indians work in call centres, or Japanese people are into weird af kinky *** ****.

It's just a fact

23andMe is unable to determine your "convict ancestry". Regardless, the facts are as I stated them. Over 75 percent of the convicts send to Australia were sent for petty larceny (engendered by horrendous social conditions and the fall-out of the Enclosure Acts). The hardcore criminals stayed in England and were killed.

And when I say we are the ancestors of rapists, I mean that pre the agricultural revolution, our ancestors didn't live in monogamy or tribes, and that the adaptive evolution of our penises strongly suggests high levels of caveman "rape" (for example, our penises, the biggest of all the apes, are weaponized, able to remove deposited ejaculate from the cervix of pre fertilized females, and able to ejaculate in such a way that each spurt is chemically different from the next, the first containing enzymes which neutralize already present "enemy sperm" and the last containing chemicals which hamper another caveman's incoming sperm. All this and more suggests a highly promiscuous situation in which multiple males are constantly fighting to impregnate females within extremely short periods of time).

That we're all the ancestors of slaves (and slave owners) is just a matter math.

Did you even read what I said? I know I would have. And I know for a fact I have no convict ancestry. I've read up on the history. My family couldn't be less descendant of slaves or the slave owners. They didn't come from no part of the world where slaves were common property.

As for proto-human rape, I don't care for that and neither should you or anyone else. Don't even know why you brought up such an incendiary topic. We're here to talk about proto-human premeditated assault.

I think his point was pretty obvious, everyone has a criminal ancestor if you go back far enough.

Credit for referring to Ben Stokes as a proto-human though.
