>Australian kids shouldn't be trick or treating or celebrating halloween. It's unaustralian and has no significance here.
Why is it now trendy to be against halloween being imported to Australia?
It seems hypocritical to me.
They go on social media and bitch about it, but if I went on to facebook and said something like "We shouldn't be having fireworks on Chinese New Year. We are at risk of losing our culture to these foreign influences", these same people would call me some sort of racist nationalist. So what's the difference?
Halloween is going to be an australian holiday in the coming decades, and there is nothing you can do about it. So let everyone have their fun.

i generally find it only occurs in wealthier neighbourhoods since they have younger kids and actually have the resources to just chuck candy at any kids.
so i'm sure you'll be safe fellow australian, where i won't. <33

There are lots of Chinese here though, and Chink history is intertwined with ours somewhat. Celebrating a Chinese holiday makes some sense historically and culturally.
Halloween is just "oh that looks like fun, let's do that".

Halloween is part of your cultural heritage as settlers from Britain though. It's a pre-Christian tradition that should be reclaimed and celebrated.

Go back to China, please. You are destroying my only affordable holiday spot of white people where I want to experience being foreign.

Because Halloween is Irish/Celtic and therefore not an oppressed minority.

Well neither does Catholicism so you can't blame him for wondering.
There have always been celebrations marking the seasons and what's become Halloween was a part of that.
The papists did incorporate it like everything else so it is a part of "Allhallowtide", it's the eve of All Saints Day.

Is Australia a poor shithole or something? Even hicks and nignogs have the money to celebrate Halloween

Halloween and Lunar New Year are the two best holidays. Everyone should celebrate them.

Maybe because it's a dumb holiday? Give out candy to children or else they TP your house.

Where I live, i see fireworks on chinese new year too. the fireworks are privately done by chinese students. but i have to watch them anyway, whether i like it or not.
It's similiar to halloween. the kids can do their trick or treatin if they want to... its their decision, and i just have to put up with it.
the difference is the social aspect. with the fireworks, i just put earbuds in. with children knocing at my door, there is social pressure to give them candy.
>Halloween is going to be an australian holiday in the coming decades, and there is nothing you can do about it. So let everyone have their fun.
over here october 31st is a public holiday, called reformation day. but it sounds like a bad excuse to make halloween a holiday
