The first rule of journalism is to make things clear. Not so for journalists, er, activists in the Nine newsroom.
Their first rule is to promote Indigenous language and national confusion.
Here’s the Nine News headline from earlier this week …
A woman in her 20s has suffered multiple bite wounds to the lower half of her body after being mauled by a pack of dingoes on K'gari this morning. The woman was reportedly chased by four wongari into the ocean near Orchid Beach.
I beg your pardon? She was chased by what? And where?
I’m guessing a wongari is a dingo. Or is it carnivorous Oompa Loompa? Could it be a new type of drop bear that randomly attacks beach goers?
I’m going to go with dingo, but I had to rely on the context of the news item to work that out.
It’s a novel way of doing news. Make readers guess what you’re saying.
Why report the news in English, which everybody understands, when you can report the news in an Aboriginal dialect that only a few people know?
Of course, if Nine are going to play this game they should play it properly. As one person pointed out, they failed to use all the other dialects.
In the Yarralin, Victoria River District, Northern Territory language, "dingo" is "warrigang".
In the Warlpiri language, the term for "dingo" is "maliki".
In the Anindilyakwa language, spoken by the Warnindhilyagwa people on Groote Eylandt, "dingo" is "warrka".
In the Kaurna language, traditionally spoken by the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains, "dingo" is "pudnu".
In the Arrernte language, spoken in and around Alice Springs, "dingo" is "utnerrengatye".
In the Yolngu languages, spoken in northeastern Arnhem Land, "dingo" is "dhukarr".
In the Tiwi language, spoken by the Tiwi people on the Tiwi Islands, "dingo" is "tirrima".
In the Pitjantjatjara language, spoken by the Pitjantjatjara people in the Central Australian region, "dingo" is "tjukurpa
English isn’t our national language to oppress Indigenous people. It’s our national language because it makes communication possible which, in turn, unites us.
You don’t unite people by making yourself incomprehensible.
As for the incident itself, it seems the self-determination of “K’gari”, previously known as Fraser Island, is going just great. The wongari are now so out of control they are eating people.
Perhaps the victim should seek five or six million dollars in compensation from the local Aboriginal group?
If Indigenous people in West Australia can demand $2.5m from whities wanting to plant trees, what can a non-Indigenous person charge Aboriginals for being bitten 30 times on the bum by a corroboree of wongari?
See where this leads? Divide. Divide. Divide.
Nine journalists are not producing news. They are producing farts, the smell of which they are the only ones who seem to enjoy.
I feel a new Australia coming on. The trend is following me from South Africa, where there are currently 11 official languages - I am not counting the 12th as is it officially a “sign language”. An additional 11 languages “are to be promoted and developed”.
Nothing is as unifying as a national language - no wonder the woke detest that concept. Even God said “ Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.” (Genesis 11:6) prior to confusing their languages back in the day…where confusion reigns, nothing will be achievable.
Quite simple for the coloniserphobes. However English is spoken by the whole world. Europeans like to speak it now in order to show off to tourists. I had no trouble in China or Tibet finding people who spoke English. Funnily enough they teach it at school which seems strange to Downunder Teacher Unions these days who prefer to teach subjects like being kind, what sex you might be, and that the world is full of dreadful white people who brought the wheel, etc to native folk who otherwise would have progressed into the 21st century all by themselves whilst eating each other. These journos are merely reporters of rubbish they learned at school. This pidgin language nonsense doesn't help the present day native people one iota in fact it sets them back as the rest of the world looks divisively and derisively upon them when it's not their fault that we can't understand their language that these ignorant pansies try to foist upon us. However the top native people are getting immensely well paid through all this but in your case that money is not seen around Alice or Katherine. This is the theory of the trickle down effect defined as the rich pissing on the poor. Tell your journos to start being journos and hunt out scoops on this sort of thing (oh dear it's called accountability-that's English tell them) and stop being repeaters of turgid leftist crap.
