I get sick of all the Kochie-styled 'Australia's the greatest country in the world' type rhetoric that is wheeled out on a daily basis in this country.
Australia is a good country. But please don't tell me it's the greatest society to have ever graced the face of the earth and Australians are the greatest people to have ever walked the earth and no one else in the world is anywhere near as good as 'us Aussies'.
Australia is a lucky country run mainly by second rate people who share its luck. It lives on other people's ideas, and, although its ordinary people are adaptable, most of its leaders (in all fields) so lack curiosity about the events that surround them that they are often taken by surprise.
By world standards we ain't that special.
I'm an Australian citizen and I love this country. It's just the people that aren't that likeable.
Boorish, bogan, backward.
It's time we ended this GOAT mentality and realised we Aussies ain't as s**t hot as we think we are.
