"onslaught of racism, sexism, homophobia and transphobia".At one point, Mick Dundee, played by co-writer Paul Hogan, compares the issue of Indigenous land rights to "fleas" debating "who owns the dog". He later sexually assaults a transwoman in public after his friend tells him "It's a guy" and the word "faggot" is thrown around amidst laughter, mocking and a crowd who cheer the assault on.
