I'm from Melbourne, and I honestly don't think we have any culture. It feels like we just borrow it all from the US.
I was having an argument with a friend of mine earlier today about whether Australia has any culture or not, and when he mentioned Abos I said Abo culture doesn't count because of how primitive and shit it is. Then he started getting mad at me over using the term Abo to describe the, well, Abos. Then we had another argument about PC culture and why it's wrong that I think it should be okay to use terms most people think are offensive (aka: nigger, chink, abo, etc.). He says he finds it offensive because he has Abo blood in him. So now not only does he have Abo blood, but also German, Spanish, Dutch, British, and Scottish. I don't think I believe him.
Anyways enough about my blog. Back to the question, does Australia have a proper culture?
More proper culture than Canada at least, so there's that
Samuel Clark
We were meant to be a British colony before we told England to fuck off so we could find our own path.
Now we're an American colony.
The answer is no.
Christopher Gomez
WE ARE ALL LIVING IN AMERICA, BRAH
Oliver Sullivan

Leo Watson
Australia (and New Zealand) are geographically isolated and located too far away from other meaningful countries yet have advanced society. And that is the characteristic point but that's different from "culture" i guess
Kevin Sanders
Yes, criminal culture. The only culture you have besides fucking kangaroos and sucking koala dicks. Wear it proudly, Crim.
Angel Ward
Half assed British colony culture. Culture takes time to develop.
Kayden Ward
>we told England to fuck off Kek, you have the fucking queen printed on your currency and a royal cuckstamp on your flag
Sebastian Morgan
I mean England doesn't have direct command of our country anymore. If they went to war again with Europe tomorrow, it'd be our decision to decide whether we wanted to jump in or not, not a forced conscription like it was before.
And there;s nothing wrong with it. What's the point in going full autist about it?
Andrew Walker
I've always seen Australia as a southern Canada of sorts. We don't really have a national identity, but we do have different cultures at the provincial level. Quebec is an extreme example of this, but the other provinces have it as well to varying degrees. Is there anything like that with the Australian states?
Jace Williams
foy
Levi Wright
you'd help us if that happened though r-right bruce?
Jaxon Cruz
australia is basically california version 2.0 but with emus and shit
Blake Russell
Fuck off cunts, you didn't help us when we needed it. So we're not helping you.
Luis Allen
literally when
Carter Powell
In WW2 faggot. We had to get help from the US, that's why we've been sucking on their fucking dick for the last 70 years.
Mason Cooper
GOOD post
Luis Bennett
Because Britain certainly had nothing better to do in World War II
Parker Hernandez
Australia is really just the american southwest with different accents and asians instead of latinos.
Camden Bennett
Could have at least helped us when we desperately needed it. Our men were killed by the masses in WW1 because we had to help Britain, and they didn't have the decency to send a little help back 20 years later.
Camden Barnes
urmm...err..greater good and whatnot
besides we'd always back you up against big ebil euros anyway en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbot_War with canada or siding with nz after rainbow warrior
Justin Clark
This whole thread really boils my billy
Matthew Walker
How do you think about this?
Cameron Johnson
I feel so ashamed to here other Australians say this shit.
Ryder Gutierrez
Exactly,
America actually rebelled with the boston tea party and became independent.
We have a big fucking symbol on our flag that says we are just britain jr.
It's fucked... and people actually are okay with this shit.
Angel Cox
The fuck is "proper" culture?
Jacob Davis
It's a meaningless symbol on a fucking piece of cloth. Get over it.
Mason King
Australia is basically like a country where 99 percent of it is like the American red neck south with different accents, just replaces the trucks with utes the American flags with Aussies flags.
Then the only places normal people live are Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
And if you go more than 20ks outside of any of those places it's like the south of America.
Caleb Young
People assign meaning to symbols though.
It's called semiotics.
Jose Jenkins
Why?
Who cares???
This
Alexander Rodriguez
Oh yeah, what is the largest town or city nearest to where you live? You type like someone who hasn't spent any time living in Australia.
It's still meaningless, get the fuck over it. We have stronger trade relations with China than the UK.
Sebastian Carter
When people say culture they don't mean drinking beer, watching sport and calling people cunt they mean stuff like this.
Australia says that stuff is it's culture and the rest of the world laughs.
Christopher Williams
This is what thailand means when talking about culture.
Charles Phillips
Why so much hate against the British in this thread?
Lucas Peterson
Is bullying us part of the Australia culture ?
Michael Barnes
I have lived in ipswich, toowoomba, beenleigh, logan and brisbane.
Carson Ward
What greeks mean by culture.
Carson Ortiz
What chinese people mean by culture.
Jonathan Gray
What indians mean by culture.
Ryan Perry
Nepalese culture.
Adam King
...
Daniel Lewis
Australian Culture
Hudson Watson
Australia = shit version of California with worse accents and like 10 years behind. If you hate Californians you will really hate Australians.
Australia is a floating version of Bakersfield.
Anthony Rogers
Yes, but it's much less pronounced than others. Australia is a really young country that, unlike the US, never really fealt a need to break away from the mother country. In time, it will become more distinct from Britain, but right now it maintains strong similarities
Charles Moore
Like take these nepalese people and they go to an Aussie... "This is my culture it goes back 100's of years and is a strong part of my peoples identity"
Than the Aussie goes "Yeah, mate we got culture like that to, what we do is get drunk and watch sport.. that's our version of the same thing"
Can you imagine how ridiculous that would sound to them?
Luis Cook
It's more like the redneck parts of the south but with different accents.
Jaxson Hernandez
Yeah, they say cunt and drink fosters
Lucas Barnes
>Amstetten
Adrian Anderson
Everybody hates fosters in Australia.
Christopher Morris
Um but the advertisements here say that it's Australias favourite beer
Wyatt Peterson
British tried to help Australia, they just got btfo by the imperial Navy, and couldn't ever get their supply lines back around the cape of Good Hope en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_War
Lincoln Lopez
Yeah well it's not true and everyone hates it. I don't even think my local bottle shop sells it.
We drink xxxx and vb.
Joshua Watson
Here's an idea: cool kid metropolitan liberals are basically the same all over the world, in melbourne or jakarta or austin or whatever
so 95% of people on Sup Forums, even people who aren't that left politically, have the same "culture"
Grayson Cox
I've heard of vb.
Ryan Garcia
Please, Indian culture is all about raping and shitting on streets
Matthew Clark
Most of the Aussies here are from country towns for some reason.
The Aussies are basically like people from texas.
Owen Thomas
Yeah Australia has its own culture. Unsurprisingly it's similar to the US as we are both anglo counties
Brandon Gray
Just look up summernats and that's basically how nearly everybody in Australia who lives outside of a major city is.
Also look at the beer.. It's not fosters.
Anthony Davis
...
Juan Robinson
How is it that a bogan is pretty much the same thing as a red neck in almost every way.
Redneck's say "Real amuricans drive trucks"
Aussies say "real australians drive utes"
Rednecks american v8 muscle cars
Bogans love Australian v8 muscle cars.
Rednecks and bogans both love beer
They both love sports and often care about it more than education.
They both love to go hunting and killing things.
How did they end up as basically the same thing despite being so far apart?
Ethan Hernandez
The same anglo people in the same situations. The difference is the location
Dominic Jenkins
Bogans say like to buy holdens because they are australian and it makes them feel patriotic.
Red necks buy chevies because it makes them feel patriotic.
Bogans hate immigrants and muslims.
Red necks hate muslimes and immigrants.
Bogans think they are so Australian when they are red neck copies.
Chase Evans
So did I get it right with ?
Wyatt Allen
...
Joseph Bennett
Yes.
Except for the inner cities which are more like mini new yorks with lovable suburbs on the outside. But if you get too far away from the inner cities it's like the south.
Jason Lopez
Rednecks are more a south thing than southwest.
Angel Price
Redneck itself means a pro union protester in Appalachia from the 20s. Big corporations turned it into a slur to discredit labor movements
Nathan Jones
Like compare these two images..
One bogans the other red necks.
They are the same kind of people.
Nolan Sanchez
See
Mason Martin
>inner cities
Thanks to elgintinsity's gym idiots videos on YouTube, I can't hear that word with laughing.
Colton Morgan
Lets do it again.
Rednecks
Adam Hall
Yes, however it's not unique to us
Gabriel Lewis
Bogans
Aaron Gutierrez
See how it's the same kind of people.
Hudson James

Matthew Collins

Kayden Thomas
Australia doesn't have gay marriage? What's wrong with you guys?
Dylan Stewart
>Jeans, T-shirt, and baseball hat This is literally Western culture but it has been exported all over the world. Traditional dress is just old styles, we have art deco, glass&steel, modernism, any of the "trendy" clothing. It's all the same shit. The old obscure stuff is no more "real/valid" culture than modern Western culture, and modern Western culture just seems like "no culture" because of its massive success.
Jaxson Cooper
>worse accents
Jayden Foster
Wow... I think you're really on to something.
Wyatt Hill
>Also look at the beer.. It's not fosters. Bullshit, next you'll try telling me Mexicans hate Corona, and Irish don't like Guinness
Carson Morgan
Thought it meant someone who works in the sun (I have a red neck all Sumer long cause I'm pale as fuck)
Jaxon Peterson
I'm sad to hear it's so American cultured! I thought it was more of a hot weather version of Britain and Ireland.
Caleb Moore
Shudder.... oh god I hope not.
Joshua Reed
Absolutely this If it wasn't for Maoris, NZ would have a flag without a cuck stamp now
Camden Martinez
Just because a culture isn't faggoty and high class, dosen't make it non culture.
Jordan Bailey
that makes no sense
Nicholas Sanchez
British secretly hate colonials I hate NZrs and aussies who aren't pro Republic because they have a serious case of Stockholm syndrome I've convinced my parents that we should be a Republic so that's a good thing
Hunter Cox
This.
Say what you will about the hicks, but they have good values and eat good chicken. If it weren't for them we'd have no cultural identity at all in the US.
Xavier Flores
Maori were the group that voted against the flag the most Rural whites voted for the new flag the most out of any group
Brody Roberts
What did the new flag look like?
Isaac Diaz
*Maori voted against the new flag
Parker Hughes
If only rural whites voted, this would be our flag
Eli Lopez
if I were a kiwi I'd hold that flag up in pride. That's a shame.
Connor Walker
Wrong aussies are for the most part cool but commiefornians are trash desu
Gavin Cox
Yeah Nonwhites ruined our chance at removing our cuck stamp The fern flag looked aesthetic as well Shame we never got it
Christian Nguyen
Brits and Aussies hate each other for some reason. I do not know why.
Carson Torres
Lots of young Aussies are into nigger culture and it really triggers me because it makes those hot tall aussie girls disgusting
