    Wait. I genuinely thought that was just a metaphor for the historical massacre and subjugation of the indigenous people. Rabbits beat the Aussies, too?

      Yeah, we spent ages getting a rabbit only virus ready, and accidentally released it way too early. So a bunch of rabbits died, and the ones that lived had children that were immune enough to live.

      Or something like that, it’s been a while since I’ve read about it.

        IIRC, that was the premise for the TMNT setting in a post-apoc down under for the RPG back in the 90s. 🤣🤘🏼
