  1. Most people here didn't even have Australian grandparents. Their grandparents were born British, or some other race or culture.

  3.  @Design_no  Yeah, most people here. All those people who had grandparents born before 1947. Before that. Australia was British. Back then 98% of migrants were British and everyone born here was British Most people over 20-30 haven't got Australian grandparents. At some stage during their life, their grandparents magically became Australian. Meanwhile, the indigenous have been here for at least 80,000 years and a few thousand generations.

  7.  @Westyrulz  Modern Australia was built by a multicultural society. Old Australia was built by stealing land, genocide and slave labour through convicts.
