I don’t know if it’s necessarily offensive, just inaccurate. Indigenous Australians had over 200 distinct languages before colonisation. The term “Aborigines” reduces them to one group.

Aborigines is just a term meaning the people who were there first. I don’t think it’s any specific tribe or group.
