American Matt Walsh delivers a brutal message to Australia: ‘The weakest, wokest, lamest country on Earth’

An anti-woke American podcaster has unleashed on Australia claiming it is ‘the weakest, wokest, lamest country on Earth’.

Right-wing political activist Matt Walsh said his views on Australia and its people had changed for the worse in recent years.

His comments come after he watched Alone Australia, which he described as ‘unintentionally the funniest thing on TV right now’.

‘I gotta say, and I’m sure there are great people in Australia, but my opinion of Australians has just plummeted,’ he said 

During the pandemic, Mr Walsh was extremely critical of Covid lockdowns and vaccine mandates, which were introduced across Australia.

‘Before Covid, I thought that Australia was, first of all, an absolute hellscape, where poisonous spiders rained from the sky. That part is true,’ he said. 

‘But then I further thought that because of that, anyone who lives there have to be the toughest sons of b****** on the planet. 

‘I really thought that. I thought it was a whole country of Steve Irwins.’

The controversial podcaster said that ‘from Covid, and now ending with (Alone Australia), I thought how is Australia the weakest, wokest, lamest country on Earth. 

‘How is that possible? And if you have this few survival skills, how are you living in the country to begin with? 

‘I don’t get it. It’s amazing,’ he said. 

Alone Australia is a survival competition series based on the hit US version. 

‘Ten Australians are dropped off alone in separate areas of remote wilderness where they must deal with the forces of nature, hunger and loneliness,’ the SBS promotion for the show said.

Walsh wrote that he and his wife enjoy watching the US version of Alone which ‘features gritty, skilled survivalists’.

‘We just found out there’s an Australian version and started watching. Unintentionally the funniest thing on TV right now. It’s basically “Alone: DEI Edition”.’

‘DEI’ is an acronym for ‘diversity, equity and inclusion’.

Walsh wrote that Alone Australia ticks all the diversity boxes by including two lesbians and two Indigenous people.

‘Ten contestants. Two are lesbians. Two claim to be Indigenous. One of the lesbians dropped out after one night.

‘One of the Indigenous guys made a big show about being in touch with nature etc and then cried and dropped out after one night.’

The conservative commentator then wrote about how a ‘Gen Z environmentalist guy’ asked for a medical evacuation after testing positive for Covid-19.

‘Another Indigenous guy tried to eat a toxic millipede,’ he said.

‘The American version features gritty, skilled survivalists.

‘The Australian version was more worried about checking diversity boxes so the contestants are totally clueless, incompetent, and just crying through the whole thing,’ Walsh wrote. 

He said Alone Australia was ‘Very funny stuff. And a great cautionary tale. Highly recommend.

‘They apparently sent the contestants out into the wilderness with Covid tests. And they start each episode with a land acknowledgment. 

‘Plus they have a bunch of woke environmental regulations that prohibit them from hunting pretty much any game. Like I said, it’s hilarious.’

Walsh’s new video has got several hundred comments already, with one poster talking about their own experiences of the show.

‘Being a survival enthusiast, I started the application process for this show, but as soon as I realized that they were promoting DEI in the contestants, I didn’t proceed. 

‘There were more questions about sexuality and gender identity than there were about outdoor skills.’

Another wrote that Crocodile Dundee actor ‘Paul Hogan seriously gave millions of Americans the wrong impression of Aussies. 

‘The vast majority of them are nothing like that. Renowned wilderness connoisseurs like Steve Irwin are about as common as they are here in the states.

‘However, what was retained when I visited Australia in 2009 and 2013 was their sense of humor and affinity of alcohol. 

‘But this was before they were infected with wokeism,’ they wrote.
