What are the dark sides of Australia? Australia is a beautiful country with so much to offer and enjoy. But like any other place, it has its dark sides too. From the scorching heat of the outback to the insidious racism that still persists in some areas, living in Australia can be difficult for many people, especially those from minority backgrounds. This video will explore some of these darker aspects of life Down Under, such as climate change, mental health issues and cultural differences between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. It will also discuss how we can work together to create a more equitable society where everyone can thrive despite their background or circumstances.
1. Internet is Bad
Internet in Australia is becoming increasingly unreliable and expensive. With the cost of data plans rising, many people are unable to afford access to the internet, making it difficult for them to stay connected with family and friends or work from home. The quality of connection can also be poor, leading to slow speeds and frequent disruptions which make streaming video or downloading large files nearly impossible. Furthermore, Australians pay some of the highest prices in the world for broadband services due to a lack of competition between providers. All these problems are putting a strain on the country's digital economy and inhibiting innovation within its borders.
2. Difficult to Make Friends (Australians are Friendly but Not Friends)
Making friends in Australia can be difficult. Australians are known for being friendly and open, but that doesn't necessarily mean they will become your friend. Although there are many people who you may come into contact with on a daily basis, such as colleagues or classmates, building meaningful relationships with them can take time and effort. It's not just about having common interests or similar backgrounds; it's also about connecting emotionally and feeling comfortable enough to share stories from your pasts. As an outsider coming to Australia, it might take some getting used to the culture before you can make genuine friendships with locals.
3. Racism
Racism in Australia is a problem that has been present for many years. It is an issue that affects the lives of people from all walks of life, including Indigenous Australians, migrants and refugees. Racism can be seen in various forms such as discriminatory behaviour, unequal access to resources and services, or exclusion from social activities. Unfortunately, racism continues to affect many aspects of our society today and unfortunately there are still too many instances where individuals are treated differently based on their racial background or cultural identity.
There have been numerous reports over the past decade suggesting that levels of racism remain high in Australia with a survey conducted by the Scanlon Foundation indicating that one out of four Australians experience discrimination due to their race at least once per year. The Australian Human Rights Commission also reported a significant increase in complaints about race-related matters since 2010/2011 showing an alarming trend towards increasing levels of prejudice within our communities.
Furthermore, research into Indigenous deaths in custody has revealed that Indigenous Australians are disproportionately represented in the criminal justice system and are more likely to be incarcerated than non-Indigenous people. This is a clear example of how racism can have serious implications for individuals, families and communities.
It is important for us all to work together towards eliminating racism from our society by promoting positive attitudes towards cultural diversity, understanding different perspectives, challenging stereotypes and speaking out against discrimination whenever we see it. By doing this, we can help create an inclusive Australia where everyone feels respected and valued regardless of their race or ethnicity.
