    They didn’t even class indigenous Australians as people, until late 1960’s. They were considered fauna.

        Is it ? Australia hold a référendum this year to give a bit more rights to native people. They voted against it.

            You can use the wording you want, Australia is a racist country that shows no respect to the native people.

                He, it is not a contest. I never say Europe was less racist than other country/area. Just I don’t hide by using some words to softening the reality.

                I don’t try to move away the initial discussion : we don’t care if it is true or not that native people where considered as fauna. The point was native people are considered as second class people, that do not deserve respect, unfortunately.
