Guilt Politics
“Sydney’s 1789 smallpox epidemic came from the First Fleet and killed up to 220,000 Indigenous Australians: new research”
They missed “shows”. However, at best, it is “suggests”.
The politics of guilt and compensation needs scientific “proof” to justify the cause.
So some half-arsed academic modelling that I could have done in 15 minutes using AI is dressed up as scientific proof.
And yet, all they need to do is invoke Occam’s Razor. The British probably did introduce Smallpox and not the Japanese subs.
One year after they landed; it would have to be quite the coincidence to come from other sources.
Those British, man, they really should pay for their misdeeds! It’s a shame they’re out of cash.
