Where's Karuna country? I live in Armidale, NSW, which is Anaiwan, and there's Gumbangerie nearby. I love the names. Gamillaroi, Gadigal, Eora (some are tribes and some are 'nations'). I grew up in Australia, and in 1980 I could have named easily half a dozen of the US "Indian" tribes, and not one of Australia's. Things have changed.

"traditional owners"

I could be mistaken but I thought the Aborigines didn't own land, and that's the whole reason why your government's virtue signalling about "respecting and acknowledging indigenous peoples" let's them gloss over cultural destruction.

As i understand it, they didnt have a codified property system but it was well understood that the tribes owned thier land.

I dont know what virtue signalling has do anything. All human interaction is signalling and tacit acceptance of social norms. Why a particular set of those customs is a specific negative makes no sense

"I dont know what virtue signalling has do anything. All human interaction is signalling and tacit acceptance of social norms. Why a particular set of those customs is a specific negative makes no sense." Exactly right.

Personally wasnt a huge fan of playing in that region but glad ya liked it, their religion is very strong i feel, not even from like a meta min max type thing it just gives some crazy benefits, as bad as it was at launch Leviathan certainly gave that area some decent flavor not gonna lie

That is usually how i play, i randomly get insane urges to play grand strategy games and ill binge games like CK3,CIV,EU,stellaris hardcore for a month or so straight. Then my urge will die down and then i usually play games like souls-like or rpgs for 6 or 7 months. That urge is reason i bought UE although.... i do wish i had seen the subscription thing before dropping $550 on it, meh, worth it honestly.

No group of people think completely alike. I doubt an aboriginal mp will view the lived experience of intergeneration poverty and trauma from rascist policies the same a prosperity doctrine 'christian'
yeah i was trying to not mention it couse i didnt want to start a race flame war.
but yeah that what the government feels bad for and they keep virtue signalling that they made they point but they keep going to the point it cringe
