A few things.
The Canberra Raiders have been around longer than Advance Australia Fair has been our National Anthem.
No one in this country gave a flying f**k about the anthem until the RWNJ started up and the derelicts of Australian society morphed into the redneck imbeciles of the US, wanting, guns, hating foreigners, fear mongering blah blah blah.
This country has a proud history of not being that passionately proud of our country. We love it, but getting tattoos of the Southern Cross and flag waving etc was just OTT.
Now you're looked at as unpatriotic if you don't comply with that mindset.
