Basically agree with you, I see that part differently - but not because I'm a big IB fan now. If I find kangaroos ugly and koalas super cute, I don't have to do without a documentary about Australian nature. If there is this documentary with two artworks, where a kangaroo glares at me or a koala smiles at me, it should be clear what I choose. I'm not asking for the eradication of kangaroos in Australia.

 

 

There's an Australian film made in the 1970s called "Wake In Fright" that features a controversial scene that involved licensed hunters going after Kangaroos (though no Kangaroos were harmed).

 

To this day, you have a choice to watch the censored version (with this scene removed) or the uncensored version with the scene playing in its entirety.

 

I think it's a good way to approach something that may be controversial or sensitive.

 

Have both options available.

Stimme dir grundsätzlich zu, den Teil sehe ich anders - aber nicht, weil ich jetzt großer IB-Fan wäre. Wenn ich Kängurus hässlich finde und Koalas total süß muss ich nicht auf eine Doku über die australische Natur verzichten. Wenn es diese Doku mit zwei Artworks gibt, wo mich einmal ein Känguru böse anstarrt oder ein Koala anlächelt dürfte klar sein was ich wähle. Damit verlange ich nicht die Kängurus in Australien auszurotten.

 

Stimmt schon aber der Vergleich hinkt etwas, da die lieben Tierchen ja nicht Symbol für ein menschenverachtendes System sind.

ist aber ein süßer Vergleich und ich würde hier auch zur Koala Version greifen😄

That's true, but the comparison is a bit lame, since the lovely little animals aren't a symbol of an inhuman system.

but it's a cute comparison and I would also use the koala version here 😄

 

 

How can you say "No" to this guy? 😄

Fine with me as long as the original versions have always priority

While not comparable to Nazi symbology, the original version of "Wake In Fright" was important as it put pressure on the Australian government to ban the killing of kangaroos for the pet food industry and it succeeded.

 

And the film itself is really about the dark and toxic side of Australia's past and culture.

 

Important lessons are learned from history so as to not repeat it.

Sicher, dass es kein Covid ist?

 If you'll say "NO" - be aware of the rage...

Yes, now, I'm feeling a lot better than yesterday. You can only rely on the antigen tests to a very limited extent.

 

Good to hear.

A) Great. Like in the old days. Now, the majority hides cowardly behind computer screens.
