A Viral Conspiracy Theory Is Arguing That Australia Doesn’t Exist & It Checks Out

Australians all let us rejoice, for we are not an actual country.

It’s all been just one big lol-fest, as theorised in a post that is quickly going viral, drawing over 20k likes on Facebook. Posted earlier this week by Shelley Floryd in Stockholm, it seems she’s blown Australia WIDE OPEN. We don’t, and never did, exist.

Floryd instead reckons that the United Kingdom killed their convicts, rather than sent them to Australia…as our fair land is not real.

“Australia is not real. It’s a hoax, made for us to believe that Britain moved over their criminals to someplace. In reality, all these criminals were loaded off the ships into the waters, drowning before they could see land ever again,” she posts.

She goes on to theorise that it’s our ages biggest cover-up, with even airports/pilots in on the joke. Instead of flying visitors to “Australia”, we are all being taken for a ride and dropped off in South America.

“If you think you’ve ever been to Australia, you’re terribly wrong. The plane pilots are all in on this, and have in all actuality only flown you to islands close nearby – or in some cases, parts of South America, where they have cleared space and hired actors to act out as real Australians,” she posted.

I guess that’s where we are now. There’s certainly a suspicious number of Salsa’s Fresh Mex Grills popping up.

The entire thing would be one giant laugh riot, if it weren’t for the thousands of offended Aussies taking her words very seriously. Floryd has been flooded with abuse and death threats from angry locals (and a whole lot of trolls), clearly missing a sense of humour.

But the existence of Indigenous Australians for hundreds of thousands of years, (much much longer than that of the Brits), aside. Guys….guys….it checks out.

If her rant sesh doesn’t convince you, here are some more reasons why Australia actually makes no sense and MOST DEFINITELY does not exist:

-We greet people by sayin: ‘How’s it going?”, instead of ‘How are you?” – a question that doesn’t make human sense.

-We play some nutso made up game called AFL, that the rest of the world cannot comprehend.

-We spread salty yeast extract on bread, and describe it as a local delicacy.

-Our greatest Aussie expat Russell Crowe, which we claim ownership of at every chance we get, is actually from New Zealand.

It’s all lies.
