Crikey, this raised a ruckus!<\/p>\n

The NFL\u2019s embrace of virtual signaling was alive and well in Australia, where it played its first-ever game. But in the lead-up to the sports event, there was a blond woman draped in fur, carrying a large twig, who performed a kind of tribal welcoming ceremony.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo you, we pay our respects to your culture and heritage and those watching,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that you have enjoyed our celebration of honoring 60,000 years of our culture,\u201d she told the crowd.<\/p>\n

She then plucked a leaf to show that everyone was welcome.<\/p>\n

Outkick<\/em> founder Clay Travis shared the \u201cinsane\u201d clip that can be watched below:<\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s first ever NFL game began with a land acknowledgment. This is insane. Australia also has a national sorry day where the country apologizes to the aborigines every year. If you think the US can\u2019t get crazier, it can. pic.twitter.com\/E5zuYY7XLR<\/a><\/p>\n

Plenty of folks weighed in on the clip, including conservative author Matt Walsh, who slammed Australia for once being known as \u201ctough and rugged.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow the word \u2018Australia\u2019 is synonymous with gay bullsh*t like this,\u201d Walsh posted. \u201cGay bullsh*t appears to be the country\u2019s main export. Like Canada but with bigger spiders. What a shame.\u201d<\/p>\n

Walsh wasn\u2019t alone in his disgust at perpetual virtue signaling that so obviously serves no other purpose other than politics.<\/p>\n

\n

They do this before all of their major sporting events in Australia.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve completely bowed down to the woke agenda and given aboriginal groups a lot of power.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a major warning for the United States. https:\/\/t.co\/n9rziDsjji<\/a><\/p>\n

According to the following account (and others), the \u2018ancient\u2019 ceremony was concocted 50 years ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no words in any of the 200 Aboriginal languages for \u2018Welcome to Country Ceremony\u2019. It is only referred to in English words. Ipso facto, if there were no words for it prior to colonisation, it didn\u2019t exist\u201d:<\/p>\n

For the Americans reading this, this \u2018ancient ceremony\u2019 was invented 50 years ago.<\/p>\n

Journalist Robert Lusetich made a historical claim to justify the ceremony, which prompted Travis to ask the inevitable question: at what point does it stop?<\/p>\n

\n

At what point should people stop apologizing for things they had nothing to do with? My ancestors were slaves in ancient Rome. Should Italy apologize to me today?<\/p>\n

According to the alleged Aboriginal woman in the video, we need only to go back 60,000 years.<\/p>\n
