Aussie living in North America here. Bullying is different back home. Everyone is expected to get in on it and give back as much as you take. And there’s nothing that’s off the table. It’s almost like a sport. That’s how we know you’re cool.
I'm not remotely cool. If I say that from the start, will Aussie's not bully me? Probably doesn't matter, as I lack the health to fly there in the first place.
@@xzonia1 In Australia we have a culture of not taking ourselves too seriously and making fun of everything, well until this woke culture thing emerged, as long as you are not too self appraising you would be considered cool. Hope your health is on the mend.
"it's not bullying if everyone does it". The way Australians interact isn't mean spirited, bullying is nasty, Australians just enjoy making fun of each other. You'd know pretty swiftly if it was mean spirited.
He just meant it's part of their culture. Everyone does it to each other for fun without any evil intent. The main problem in the US is most people are too easily offended.
If you're a GEN Xer there was no bullying it made you stronger as you would either fight about it or you learned to ignore it. Heck, we make fun of ourselves. The problem with the younger society is they have no idea how to coup with things because they are always protected. What happen to let kids be kids and rub some dirt on it you will be ok. Now it's put on this bubble wrap and plug your ears so you don't hear anything that might upset you.
We Australians tend to be self-deprecating and can take a a joke at our own expense. As a result we tend to expect everyone else to be similar. What Fluffy here described wasn't really bullying as we would consider but a gentle ribbing. Usually, its fair to assume that if an Aussie is gently taking the mickey out of you, it's a sign they like you.
Hi Britt - I was born in Australia but was raised in California. I still have many relatives living there. The indigenous people of Australia are very fascinating. They are the world's oldest civilization. I hope you get to visit and that it's a wonderful experience.
I gues when he says "it's not bullying if everybody does it" he means, everybody to eachother, not everybody to the same guy. So for example, if one guy says stuff like that and the other says it back, its not bullying because both do it.
Correct. It's a mutually reciprocated thing, not to be confused with people always making one particular person the butt of all their jokes - that's just straight up bullying.
When l went to Fremantle, l met a drunken pirate guy. Me and my friends only understood 1 out 4 words he spoke. 3-4 in the morning we told him we had to go back to the ship and he sat on a bench and said goodbye and said he would stay there and rest. All l know is we laughed most of the night, great people in Australia and friends.
Australia was unwittingly colonised by a lot of Irish people sent their as punishment. English landowners wanted people who could pay the rent they were demanding and that wasn't the Irish. A lot of Irish culture was taken with them. There is this particular thing that Irish people do it's called slagging, essentially it's funny insults. The idea is to give as good as you get, that Australian fella was expecting Fluffy to say something like 'Oh look, it's Crocodile Dundee's love child, when did they let you cliché jail?' to generally take the piss out of him. When people visiting Ireland hear slagging for the first time they don't know what to make of it either and wonder why everybody is laughing?
I don’t agree. It’s still bullying. But as for Australians? LOVE them! Love their country. Hands down the nicest, friendliest, most welcoming people of any country I’ve visited.
FWIW, as an Australian, I agree. Not to the extent that I'm like "err everyone here is mean to me", but I do think the commonly accepted "insult culture" reputation that we've seemed to cultivate is wildly stereotypical, largely misguided/misleading an unrealistically exaggerated to a point that's not doing us any favours, any more. Then again, i DO have a friend that makes knives so make of that what you will.
No bullying is bullying no matter if one or everyone is doing it; but you can be frank if others want to be frank; if it will help, instead harm 🙏 I love fluffy's stories, they make me feel good 😊
Thanks!. It would be great if you could react to Australian artist John Farnham singing Help live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. He has performed with many major artists, including Tom Jones, Celine Dion & Olivia Newton-John to name a few. Thanks Britt. Keep up the great reactions.
Hey sista, I am a brown girl in Brisbane, Australia. We have a whole suburb called Moorooka that is populated by Africans that have hair like ours, it's very multicultural, there's lots of products available for us, and professionals who can handle our hair. Aussies love our hair and generally because it's different and beautiful :)
Aus takes great pride for its multiculturalism, over 30% of Aus citizens were born overseas. It also has either the highest or second highest intake of refugees from EVERYWHERE around the world. They do take the piss, it's a form of acceptance, or greeting. If they like you, they will insult you. You are expected to insult them in return. All of this is done with a smile. If there's no projected humour, the insult is real. It is the number one rated Most Liveable Country In The World. Perth in Western Australia is considered the most beautiful modern, clean and sunny city in the world, 2.25 million people. The average is 8 hours of sunshine for every day of the year.

"Everyone does it" is the definition of bullying. You CAN'T bully if the rest of the kids stand up to you. Even if there's just one "bully", the fact he gets away with it means that everyone else is participating - inaction IS participation. If you don't stand up to the bully you are letting him get his way which means you are on his side.
It's not bully if EVERYONE is doing it as bullying depends on an unequal transfer of power in a situation. If everyone is doing it then there is no inequality, thus no bullying
Compared to Australians (and most of the world) American's are very easily offended. I;ve worked (in Europe) for two American companies in the past 5 years. Part of the onboarding is how you have to be careful talking to American colleagues and what they find offensive that, in Europe, is just how we speak
Bullying is bullying, that was just a joke. Growing up I used to joke about bullying as a coping mechanism, and I'd also make fun of myself before other people could, because at least I'd put intelligence into it, whereas my bullies would never give better insults than I would expect in kindergarten. 😂 I hope you have a great day!
No, I don't agree with Fluffy on this. If someone says something that upsets or hurts you, you ask them to stop, and they keep going, they're bullying you. If others join in, they're also bullying. That only makes things worse, not acceptable.
Sure . But this over emphasis on things hurting us has absolutely spoiled society. Not everything should hurt us?! If you're fat, and someone calls ya "Hey fatty", it shouldn't hurt you.

@@rajeebdas1724 Sure. But there is a difference between friends bantering with each other and total strangers throwing barbs at you, as he was talking about. Jokes are fine, and I laugh many things off, but it is possible to say something that offends me, especially if I don't know you or why you're saying what you're saying, and if I point that out and ask for someone to stop, I would expect them to stop. It's common decency, not spoiling anyone. We should stop encouraging people to toughen up and start encouraging people to practice kindness to have a world worth living in. In a world where we can be anything, choose to be kind.
I wish he hadn’t cut the clip here. The next part of the story involves him forgetting to pack the knife, and realizing when he was about to go through airport security that he still had the knife on him. Look for the clip “What if I’m a terrorist.”. Hilarious. Oh - that “country full of Daves” is not a reference to Dave Chapelle. Fluffy is talking about his tour bus driver, Dave. Look for a clip about Dave the bus driver, and another about Fluffy’s tour bus being stopped by Border Patrol at an immigration checkpoint. Dave figured prominently in both.
I lived in Australia for a year in my gap year before going to University. The Aussies have perfected casual racism. Almost an art. However, I did note, they have a cheese called "Coon Cheese" (Or, at least, they did when I was there). I learned never to ask about the name because the usual answer was always "It'S jUsT a NaMe!". Though their South Australia Chocolate Milk drink is so addictive. Almost had one every day!
@@macdac9861 It was an observation. Not a judgement. You assume I found it bad. I didn't - I am not American nor am I am twitter warrior. I was there 15 years ago. Things may have changed since. There was a heck of a lot of casual racism in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Still, love the country and its people. Also Foreign sensibilities? They are not that different, at all, to your other English speakings cousins. Well, closer to Brits than the yanks.Just more casual when it comes to certain things.
Been there twice, its a fantastic place but they do have a pretty bad history of racism with their own Aboriginal people. Overall though the Aussies are a super chill people who just live free and easy for the most part. If youve ever been to the coast you will understand why...just phenomenal beaches, rainforests, kangaroos, koalas so not too much to not like.
"Bullying" is totally subjective, dependant on how "sensitive" the people around you are... If you're "the target" and it makes you laugh, it's Comedy. In Other Countries, people will either laugh or flip you off and walk away. Here, it'll start a Protest. In my Navy Day's, insulting each other was an art form and nothing was Taboo. In the 90's, the "Yo Momma's so..." jokes were common.... but at some point we got Thinned Skinned. No matter how "PC" you are, if you have a different opinion than someone else, they WIIL find a way to "be offended". It ends the discussion about the Topic and becomes all about how you're a bad person. Someone win's the argument by playing the "Victim".
"the behaviour of a person who hurts or frightens someone smaller or less powerful, often forcing that person to do something they do not want to do:" Idk seems pretty clear cut to me. Your arguments sound a lot like shifting the responsibility for what you say onto the people who hear it, and that's not how that works.
"Dave" was Fluffy's Bus Driver... he did a bit on him earlier in the show.... But Mr. Chappelle resembles that remark in a very good way! The "People of Color" in Australia are the Aborigines...And a few of them have naturally Blonde hair!
@BrittReacts I think that is a Mexican thing! It's not bullying if everyone is doing it. Went to Mexico on a vacation saw 15 kids hitting this man in his 40s? Thought what is this going on! Crowd was forming? Mexican Lady stepped out of the crowd with this small purse and a tiny dog! She put the tiny dog down, there was a rock the size of my fist off to one side, she picked it up and proceeded to shove it, in her purse. She closed her purse and as she started walking up to the 40+ year old guy getting beat, the kids all parted like the waters of the Red Sea did for Moses! She walked up to this man and swung that purse with the rock inside it upside his head! This Mexican Lady hit him several times until he went to his knees! She proceeded to look him in his eyes! It's like the dude wanted to say something but was to shell shocked for a word to get out? This Mexican lady then proceed to say this to him: Jorge, Jorge, I told you sh1t was going to get real if you didn't pay child support on your 15 kids!!!!! Maybe that is what Fluffy is talking about! LOL! It isn't bullying if everyone joins in! I think that's called a beat down????? Moral of Story pay your Child Support before your 15 kids and X-Wife catch up to you! Or sh1t will get real??? LOL
A couple of decades ago, if you wanted to insult an Aussie to the point of fistfight, all you had to do was to ask: "How far back goes your ball and chain??" Back then it would refer to Australia being build largely by convicts from England, Scotland and Ireland. (the serie Against The Wind is VERY good and tell the story of one such prisoner sent to Australia) Time changes languages and today "ball and chain" is used to refer to a controlling, nagging wife. :)
"Largely" Common misconception - convicts actually made up a minority of the people that sailed from England. A larger proportion were wealthy people, people with connections to royalty and of course an amount of soldiers and military commanders, but that doesn't make as funny of a story. :)
It is still bullying, even if everyone does it. With that being said PC has absolutely no place in the world, being polite, yes; being PC no. Aussies are a strange breed, but you need to go there to actually see and hear them. 🙂
Here is the rest of the Australian story. ruclips.net/video/kZZj831VbEM/видео.html/?t=10m30s I think the clip about Dave the Bus Driver is on the front end of that clip.
I watch how people act rather then what they say. but treat people with respect, but also, stick n stones is how i was raised, you can say what ya want to me but don't steal, rob etc.. my stuff
I agree with you about the bullying..an arena full of people picking on one person is just as ugly as it sounds. On the other hand, every Dave I’ve ever known is a Dave! And everyone knows exactly what I mean! Strange, is it not?
Yes, but that's not quite what the "if everyone does it" means. The idea is, if somebody "bullies", (and I use that term lightly), somebody else, as in Gabriels story, it is expected/assumed that the recipient will understand the humorous, (not malicious), intent and either follow up with a further self deprecating comment or even better, return fire with a "hopefully" witty retort. A returned insult will not be met with an offended or aggresive response, but rather a chuckle and appreciation of the wit and shared banter, whether it was with a friend or stranger. The same applies in a group. If one or two or more direct insults towards another, they are expecting it to be returned and/or redirected with an insult/comical observation of someone else within the group. To use today's mindset, the entire group are at any moment the potential bully and victim and the roles change with each exclamation. That's why "bullying" is not "bullying" if everyone does it. There's no real power in that dynamic. Everyone is equal and the unspoken challenge is more to see who can come up with the funniest line regardless of the target. It's banter, not bullying.
Wow the amount of non Australians that don't understand out culture. We say it as a joke and take it as a joke. It's like that show Wild N Out. It's about insulting each other and insulting back 24/7. The better the truth of the insult the better that friend is. I am slightly overweight and was at the beach. I walked up to this toned guy and said can you help me get back in I've been beached. He laughed yelled out to his mates. They came over picked me up and carried me in. That's Australian culture at its best. Not taking yourself seriously and then others joining in.
The problem today is people don't know what real bullying is. Any sign of contrariness is taken as "bullying" and is met with a flood of tears or rage. Snowflake city.
His a comedian, his using the term bullying for what is banter playing to his audience. No one in this country tollerate's bullying, we never have. Nor would anyone talk to large people with such disrespect. You might say his taking the piss out of himself. Banter which is more akin to British humour is a national sport, best not come here if your precious. The Dave's comment, that's his bus driver. On the make-up sounds a bit odd, you see darker skinned women wear make-up all the time. I find how American's view Australia and Australian's with intrigue. To answer my own questions I looked at several video's and was quite shocked at not only how tourism dominates the perceptions but stereo typing as well. Very few here are bogans I think is the term people use. Be rest assured Australians are not quite what is projected and are indeed very civilized, well educated and well travelled. There's a nice young American couple travelling Australia at the moment. Their YT channel is called One Pack Wanderers. They're smart on how they have gone about exploring this beautiful country, check them out. On the wilderness, video's check out Dan Proud, especially his Kimberley and Pilbara screenings and Saltywings and the Bungle Bungles. That will give you a better feel of Australia. Travel well 🇦🇺👍
I agree 100%. People are becoming increasingly soft by the passing day. That's so irritating and frankly boring. Thankfully that isn't the case in India. It's pretty much like Australia. But if I have to be friends with people that I can't even casually troll? That's SO boring!!! What do we do then? Give each other compliments and pour sugar syrups?? 😂 So in the end, you're left with not just a soft, pampered individual, but a soft, pampered group!! I'd love to see the whole world become like Australia. No political correctness.

Jokes are fine, and I laugh many things off, but it is possible to say something that offends me, especially if I don't know you or why you're saying what you're saying, and if I point that out and ask for someone to stop, I would expect them to stop. It's common decency, not spoiling anyone. We should stop encouraging people to toughen up and start encouraging people to practice kindness to have a world worth living in. In a world where we can be anything, choose to be kind.
I wish he hadn’t cut the clip here. The next part of the story involves him forgetting to pack the knife, and realizing when he was about to go through airport security that he still had the knife on him. Look for the clip “What if I’m a terrorist.”. Hilarious.
Oh - that “country full of Daves” is not a reference to Dave Chapelle. Fluffy is talking about his tour bus driver, Dave. Look for a clip about Dave the bus driver, and another about Fluffy’s tour bus being stopped by Border Patrol at an immigration checkpoint. Dave figured prominently in both.
Come Down Britt, live in Sydney, i will take you for a climb on the Harbour Bridge
I lived in Australia for a year in my gap year before going to University. The Aussies have perfected casual racism. Almost an art. However, I did note, they have a cheese called "Coon Cheese" (Or, at least, they did when I was there). I learned never to ask about the name because the usual answer was always "It'S jUsT a NaMe!". Though their South Australia Chocolate Milk drink is so addictive. Almost had one every day!
That was actually the family name. But it has since been changed to satisfy PC requirements.
@@vinsgraphics I thought they might have. Especially in this day and age!
Generalising a population and judging us against foreign sensibilities (coon ain’t racist slang in Australia)…..pot kettle black
@@macdac9861 It was an observation. Not a judgement. You assume I found it bad. I didn't - I am not American nor am I am twitter warrior. I was there 15 years ago. Things may have changed since. There was a heck of a lot of casual racism in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Still, love the country and its people.
Also Foreign sensibilities? They are not that different, at all, to your other English speakings cousins. Well, closer to Brits than the yanks.Just more casual when it comes to certain things.
Coon change to Cheers. It's pathetic.
We would welcome you with open arms.
Dave is his tour bus driver in the US and Canada
Been there twice, its a fantastic place but they do have a pretty bad history of racism with their own Aboriginal people. Overall though the Aussies are a super chill people who just live free and easy for the most part. If youve ever been to the coast you will understand why...just phenomenal beaches, rainforests, kangaroos, koalas so not too much to not like.
"Bullying" is totally subjective, dependant on how "sensitive" the people around you are... If you're "the target" and it makes you laugh, it's Comedy.
In Other Countries, people will either laugh or flip you off and walk away. Here, it'll start a Protest.
In my Navy Day's, insulting each other was an art form and nothing was Taboo. In the 90's, the "Yo Momma's so..." jokes were common.... but at some point we got Thinned Skinned. No matter how "PC" you are, if you have a different opinion than someone else, they WIIL find a way to "be offended". It ends the discussion about the Topic and becomes all about how you're a bad person. Someone win's the argument by playing the "Victim".
"the behaviour of a person who hurts or frightens someone smaller or less powerful, often forcing that person to do something they do not want to do:"
Idk seems pretty clear cut to me. Your arguments sound a lot like shifting the responsibility for what you say onto the people who hear it, and that's not how that works.
Sucks that video was cut short, there’s a whole bit about when he gets to the airport and forgot about that knife being in his pocket.
I was waiting for that!
"When have you ever seen a fat terrorist?" 😂
We are cool
Good cuisine? Well we have chicken salt, that’s pretty amazing.
I really don't have a desire to travel the world(there's so much to see in the U.S.) but the one place I would be interested in is Australia.
I love your reactions. Try, Conan eats soul food 👍
Not bullying for sure... Bombay in the 80s and 90s and early 2000s - Wee all did it to each other.
It isn’t bullying if everyone does it!! Lol
I guess it's like rap battles here. You just got to have tough skin and a sense of humor. A good comeback always helps.
Dave, Fluffy's bus driver.
"Dave" was Fluffy's Bus Driver... he did a bit on him earlier in the show.... But Mr. Chappelle resembles that remark in a very good way!
The "People of Color" in Australia are the Aborigines...And a few of them have naturally Blonde hair!
It doesn't matter how many people do it or if you give it back when you get it. Bullying is still Bullying-given and/ or taken
Come on down to Australia we are laid back
He's a comedian. Cheez and rice.
People really need to calm down and not be so offended all the time.
Ah man there was more to that story too
@BrittReacts I think that is a Mexican thing! It's not bullying if everyone is doing it. Went to Mexico on a vacation saw 15 kids hitting this man in his 40s? Thought what is this going on! Crowd was forming? Mexican Lady stepped out of the crowd with this small purse and a tiny dog! She put the tiny dog down, there was a rock the size of my fist off to one side, she picked it up and proceeded to shove it, in her purse. She closed her purse and as she started walking up to the 40+ year old guy getting beat, the kids all parted like the waters of the Red Sea did for Moses! She walked up to this man and swung that purse with the rock inside it upside his head! This Mexican Lady hit him several times until he went to his knees! She proceeded to look him in his eyes! It's like the dude wanted to say something but was to shell shocked for a word to get out? This Mexican lady then proceed to say this to him: Jorge, Jorge, I told you sh1t was going to get real if you didn't pay child support on your 15 kids!!!!! Maybe that is what Fluffy is talking about! LOL! It isn't bullying if everyone joins in! I think that's called a beat down????? Moral of Story pay your Child Support before your 15 kids and X-Wife catch up to you! Or sh1t will get real??? LOL
A couple of decades ago, if you wanted to insult an Aussie to the point of fistfight, all you had to do was to ask: "How far back goes your ball and chain??" Back then it would refer to Australia being build largely by convicts from England, Scotland and Ireland. (the serie Against The Wind is VERY good and tell the story of one such prisoner sent to Australia) Time changes languages and today "ball and chain" is used to refer to a controlling, nagging wife. :)
"Largely"
Common misconception - convicts actually made up a minority of the people that sailed from England. A larger proportion were wealthy people, people with connections to royalty and of course an amount of soldiers and military commanders, but that doesn't make as funny of a story. :)
They cut the video off, The next story is at the Australian airport... Let's just say he forgot that he had the knife on him...
I follow a few aussies streamers, instead of "no", they say "nor". Kinda funny
Dave is his tour bus driver
It is still bullying, even if everyone does it.
With that being said PC has absolutely no place in the world, being polite, yes; being PC no.
Aussies are a strange breed, but you need to go there to actually see and hear them. 🙂
you would love Katt williams talk about Michael Jackson
Now you need to do “How do you know I’m not a Terrorist” to get the rest of this story.
Here is the rest of the Australian story.

I think the clip about Dave the Bus Driver is on the front end of that clip.
Watch Jeff Dunham and Walter. He talks about a show they did in Australia
Dave the driver.
Dave is his driver and old school
Bullying is always bullying,….and always wrong.
😂
I watch how people act rather then what they say. but treat people with respect, but also, stick n stones is how i was raised, you can say what ya want to me but don't steal, rob etc.. my stuff
Dave his bus driver
I agree with you about the bullying..an arena full of people picking
on one person is just as ugly as it sounds. On the other hand, every
Dave I’ve ever known is a Dave! And everyone knows exactly what
I mean! Strange, is it not?
Yes, but that's not quite what the "if everyone does it" means. The idea is, if somebody "bullies", (and I use that term lightly), somebody else, as in Gabriels story, it is expected/assumed that the recipient will understand the humorous, (not malicious), intent and either follow up with a further self deprecating comment or even better, return fire with a "hopefully" witty retort. A returned insult will not be met with an offended or aggresive response, but rather a chuckle and appreciation of the wit and shared banter, whether it was with a friend or stranger.
The same applies in a group. If one or two or more direct insults towards another, they are expecting it to be returned and/or redirected with an insult/comical observation of someone else within the group. To use today's mindset, the entire group are at any moment the potential bully and victim and the roles change with each exclamation. That's why "bullying" is not "bullying" if everyone does it. There's no real power in that dynamic. Everyone is equal and the unspoken challenge is more to see who can come up with the funniest line regardless of the target.
It's banter, not bullying.
The "brown people" are the aboriginal people. That's there version of the Native Americans here
Wow the amount of non Australians that don't understand out culture. We say it as a joke and take it as a joke. It's like that show Wild N Out. It's about insulting each other and insulting back 24/7. The better the truth of the insult the better that friend is.
I am slightly overweight and was at the beach. I walked up to this toned guy and said can you help me get back in I've been beached. He laughed yelled out to his mates. They came over picked me up and carried me in. That's Australian culture at its best. Not taking yourself seriously and then others joining in.
your video was cut short. He goes on to talk about getting on the plane with the knife in his pocket
Isn't it called culture if everyone is doing something?
I've lived most of my life in Australia, it's very different to anywhere else. We didn't get the memo about political correctness, for sure!
The problem today is people don't know what real bullying is. Any sign of contrariness is taken as "bullying" and is met with a flood of tears or rage. Snowflake city.
Bullying is BULLYING! PERIOD! And it's only done by cowards.
Idk... I'm Australian and I care about people's feelings... :(
australians dont do snowflakes,
His a comedian, his using the term bullying for what is banter playing to his audience. No one in this country tollerate's bullying, we never have. Nor would anyone talk to large people with such disrespect. You might say his taking the piss out of himself. Banter which is more akin to British humour is a national sport, best not come here if your precious. The Dave's comment, that's his bus driver. On the make-up sounds a bit odd, you see darker skinned women wear make-up all the time.
I find how American's view Australia and Australian's with intrigue. To answer my own questions I looked at several video's and was quite shocked at not only how tourism dominates the perceptions but stereo typing as well. Very few here are bogans I think is the term people use. Be rest assured Australians are not quite what is projected and are indeed very civilized, well educated and well travelled. There's a nice young American couple travelling Australia at the moment. Their YT channel is called One Pack Wanderers. They're smart on how they have gone about exploring this beautiful country, check them out. On the wilderness, video's check out Dan Proud, especially his Kimberley and Pilbara screenings and Saltywings and the Bungle Bungles. That will give you a better feel of Australia. Travel well 🇦🇺👍
Bullying is necessary
I agree 100%.
People are becoming increasingly soft by the passing day. That's so irritating and frankly boring.
Thankfully that isn't the case in India. It's pretty much like Australia.
But if I have to be friends with people that I can't even casually troll?
That's SO boring!!!
What do we do then? Give each other compliments and pour sugar syrups?? 😂
So in the end, you're left with not just a soft, pampered individual, but a soft, pampered group!!
I'd love to see the whole world become like Australia.
No political correctness.
Don't agree with that statement
Is there actually a difference between white hair and black hair except for the color .That is one of the most racist things i have ever heard ?
