The definition of racist / Racism
Jun 4th, 2023 at 8:32am
 
Those words get thrown around a lot - but it has different meanings to different people.

Those words are used as weapons - implying anyone who is racist or has racism is subhuman.

So what do these words mean?

Racism:

Judging people by the color of their skin instead of the content of their character.

No, I think you're racist because you cry every time aborigines win a court case or are awarded some rights. You've never cried for any other group of people.

A person with a racist mindset only has to think a certain way about different racial backgrounds to be considered a racist. But you can only be confirmed a racist if you tell or act differently with people around with different races.

I can treat people with different racial backgrounds the same way, but differ the treatment according to their attitude toward me. Or I could be condescendingly racist and still be decent towards people of differing racial backgrounds. I have not really broken any laws.

I think we can leave the "racist" accusations against people who blatantly discriminate against people on the basis of their race.

The soft bigotry of low expectations, from people like John Smith and their ilk, has far more serious consequences for Aboriginal people than the types of racism he allows himself to see.

but....... but..... but..... but........ the Aborigines want their law to be the way things are done 'up there'...... and presumably here....

They've already got the soft-cocks feeding out of their hands over any claim for land and such - no thought for the inevitable future .... their idea of 'land ownership' is allowed to hold sway DESPITE the reality that Eddie Mabo's lot held permanent possession of an island that was clearly definable - squatter's rights and thus granted by government in return for a fee in that case never required - not over some vast swathe of land with no tracks or fences or anything to prove anything....

Just someone says their ancestors used it for whatever - though what you could use some of it for at all is a source of wonder - and some total dick-head in a government body signs off on it and gives it to a court to rubber stamp - all without hearing one word from the majority stakeholders in this land.

Nothing but trouble can come of this..... you cannot spit in the faces of the majority all of their lives and get away with it.....

Well - that is an American meme... they have different troubles with their blacks over there - but ours are doing their best to catch up.....

Nah, nah - the laws are the same - but the courts are under strict instructions from Labor Central Kommissariat to go easy on the Kaffirs.... just part of their culture to beat a baby's head in or stab a mate or a woman of beat her head in.... just a normal Saturday afternoon sport....

Being as nobody trusts them - they are not in a position of trust even within their families - so they only get half the sentence a civilised and upgrade white man would get.... it's the Woke way of thinking.... I'd be happy to call it Leftist but many of the Rightists are the same these days - soft cocks.... dropping their dacks and pointing their arses up and hoping it will all be over quickly if they don't resist..... you know - like women shouldn't either resist rape because it might be worse or go along with it and it isn't rape, you know... not rape if she didn't resist but it could be murder if she does.....

You spent some time making posts condemning me for not taking Boris to task about his supposed racism. You claim that it implied that I agreed with Boris. I would like to turn the tables on you to say that you are much the same, but in regards to needing to defend minorities at just about every turn.

I made posts to provoke you into making your personal position clear, to make you to recognise where you sat on the question - where you disliked Indigenous people or you liked them.  You finally declared yourself, unlike many here who hedge around it, rather than admit themselves because they are cowards.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Racism: The right to shoot and kill Yellow people in their own countries under the excuse of WAR, but its not ok to do the same to Black people because they're 'special'. Even if they too are violent.

The laws are different. The standards are different. The expectations are different. I did not make any claim to the contrary.

John Smith.

We have a thing called Common Law in this country - and it took a long time and a lot of blood to get it installed in jolly old Englande in the first place.

It's not common as in low class etc - what it means is that there is one law for each thing, and each person is to be treated the same under that same law.  So when any government tells courts to go easy on a specific group - not only is that government acting as a tyrant, but it is violating the division of powers between government and courts, and it is dictating to the courts how and what they will do - all of which are contrary to law.

Obviously a New Labor (Labour once they got rid of U in it) government is precisely the kind of government that would impose such a thing and not think twice about it - since they assume that power in government means absolute power over everyone and everything..... feminised governments do that, since women think that's how it works.

Schoolyard bullying politics.... and it stands a very good chance of bringing this country to civil war or to its knees.... people who push this kind of thing are sociopaths, narcissists and petty demagogues in their own minds.

Look at Mr Peabody and his carrying on at No sayers about this absurd Voice idea.... how DARE they say NO!  He is a classic of the type, as are most of the rest of them.

Bring On The Revolution!

No fd. You'd previously cried that the laws were different only. The addition of 'expectations and standards' you only included today. Most likely because someone explained to you that there are no different laws.  Cheesy


The laws are different. The standards are different. The expectations are different. I did not make any claim to the contrary.

You are a liar John. Same as yesterday.


Great, so you'll have no problems quoting these different laws?

We see kids in Alice Springs saying they have nothing to do
so they go out at night and steal cars and bash people up -
they also smash up shops and steal goods.

The only ticket for Abbos out of poverty is education.
It's the same for the Blacks in America.
They need to lift themselves up.
I would recommend extra schooling for them every Saturday and Sunday.
They need an extra 2 days per week of intense coaching from
good teachers to improve their school grades.
There is no other solution -
the solution is not asking for handouts from the Govt.
which is all they will do if a Voice is passed at a referendum.

You don't have to be a racist to disagree with you.

It's the most overused & worn out word in the leftard arsenal.

It has very little meaning anymore because of the way it has been used by clowns like Smy et al.

John thinks I am racist because I oppose having a separate set of laws, expectations and standards for aboriginal people.



No, I think you're racist because you cry every time aborigines win a court case or areawardedsomerights. You've never cried for any other group of people.



Do you support having different laws, expectations and standards for different racial groups?


There are no different laws,  no matter much you pretend otherwise



That proves your ignorance.

Who exactly will be on this 'committee'?  Representatives of all stakeholders or just a few of the Usual Suspects to work out how to divide 'im up this money 'andout, eh?

Do any politicians ever learn?  No - they don't want to - they want to virtue signal and plenty more money where that came from.... if .... WHEN .... it fails - just do it again....

There are more people in this country than their special whining mates... and better uses for that money than to waste it on their insoluble problems, and 40% of the population up there don't make up 100% of a balanced committee to disburse PUBLIC money which is not Aboriginal money.

This kind of garbage has to stop.

It's a word game. There are laws that don't apply to abos.

Fishing for instance.
No bags limits.
No size limits.
No closed seasons.
Can catch and eat anything they want.
And they can use white man's boat, with white man's motor to catch blackmans traditional food.

Indigenous Australians are not above the law. The Indigenous Australians are just not subjected to as strict application of the law, when they break the rules, as other Australians do.

I would like to turn the tables on you to say that you are much the same, but in regards to needing to defend minorities at just about every turn.


I made posts to provoke you into making your personal position clear, to make you to recognise where you sat on the question - where you disliked Indigenous people or you liked them.  You finally declared yourself, unlike many here who hedge around it, rather than admit themselves because they are cowards.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes


Your posts are very provocative. Your posts are also demotivational. The number of times you want to defend indigenous people every time someone makes a criticism about an indigenous-related issue is enough to wonder if you really care about people who are non-indigenous.

I spent much of my day interacting with people of varying backgrounds. I did not have a problem with any of them. The problem I have with racial discrimination is when it is applied at any time. And compensating racial background for historical injustices that happened to other people is just another reason why I hold my views the way I do. It is not like I can pick out WW2, or how my ancestors from 150 years ago were low-income earning farmers in England and Wales that were not treated fairly by the landholders, as a reason to justify a "what about me?" need for compensation.

Seems you are projecting, there, Unsub.  Unless I say something, I think you can understand that I hold a negative view about it.  I do not dislike White people, I do not dislike Indigenous people/Muslims/Asians/Migrants, unless they personally attack me.  In all my years I think I've encountered one bad Asian person, in a carpark at Dickson, ACT, when he turned around and insulted me for no reason.  Perhaps he had a bad day but it was nothing to do with me.

Quote:
I spent much of my day interacting with people of varying backgrounds. I did not have a problem with any of them. The problem I have with racial discrimination is when it is applied at any time. And compensating racial background for historical injustices that happened to other people is just another reason why I hold my views the way I do. It is not like I can pick out WW2, or how my ancestors from 150 years ago were low-income earning farmers in England and Wales that were not treated fairly by the landholders, as a reason to justify a "what about me?" need for compensation.


Claim it, if you like, I'll join with the majority of other people and laugh at you.  Does that make you feel better?  I have an ancestor who was transported for being a Highway Man and he was thankful for it because it gave him a new start in a new country.  I have other ancestors who were Irish poor people who decided they liked the new country they ended up and stayed here.  I generally get on well with most people when I first meet them, white, black, brown or purple skinned.  I dislike Racists, I dislike Xenophobes, I hate Tories.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Hating on anyone because of the perception of their being part of some group is racism... so hating on people you reckon are racists is racist......

Boris,  gonads,  fd, crappler

Just to name a few


John thinks I am racist because I oppose having a separate set of laws, expectations and standards for aboriginal people.



No, I think you're racist because you cry every time aborigines win a court case or areawardedsomerights. You've never cried for any other group of people.



Do you support having different laws, expectations and standards for different racial groups?


There are no different laws,  no matter much you pretend otherwise



That proves your ignorance.

no matter how much you pretend otherwise Roll Eyes

The laws are different. The standards are different. The expectations are different. I did not make any claim to the contrary.

You are a liar John. Same as yesterday.


Great, so you'll have no problems quoting these different laws?


The Voice, for starters.


how dare anyone let aborigines be heard ehh FD


You're a dumb khunt Smith.

They have been heard for decades ... by many voices in the number of groups who make representations on their behalf to govts from local to state & federal levels.

The NIAA is also their newest & possibly largest Voice .... it's charter is the same as the proposed Voice. $4.5 billion budget & 1,300 staff with  an Aboriginal CEO & Executive.

They have a Minister for Indigenous Australians in Linda Burney ... is she not a Voice?

Why do you leftoid numptards ignore these facts?

See this?

I have seen it in real life. It is common in the NT.

In fact at this very supermarket - outside on the street at a Bus Stop I was almost killed in a street fight.

How can anyone see this and not feel the horror?

How can anyone not understand that while you talk crap in here - women and children are being raped and murdered?

You Leftists have created this mess and you do nothing to make it better.

This back in 2006.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2006-06-06/sexual-diseases-reported-in-indigenous-to...

Quote:
Dire consequences of sexual abuse of children
As a consequence of dysfunctional families Aboriginal children are exposed to adult sexual behaviour, neglect and violence. Children copy what they witness or watch on DVDs which is totally inappropriate for their age.

The consequences of child sexual abuse are horrifying:

Children have sexual diseases. Children under the age of 10 and as young as 4 are diagnosed with sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhoea, chlamydia, syphilis and trichomoniasis [11].
Early exposure to pornography. Children as young as three have been exposed to pornographic material in their homes [12].
Teenage rape. Teenagers rape children, and older children rape very young children.
Higher vulnerability to illness later in life. The younger the child and the more frequent the abuse, the more likely they are to manifest physical symptoms later in life that hint at their trauma. It could be pelvic pain, stomach aches, chronic back pain or more-complex conditions such as autoimmune disease, asthma, psoriasis and type 2 diabetes. Experts call this 'somatisation': physical manifestations of psychological trauma. [13]
Within a six-month period in early 2007 the Northern Territory Health Department reported more than 800 cases of sexually transmitted diseases in Indigenous populations, while just 53 cases were noted in non-Indigenous groups [11].

Seems you are projecting, there, Unsub.  Unless I say something, I think you can understand that I hold a negative view about it.  I do not dislike White people, I do not dislike Indigenous people/Muslims/Asians/Migrants, unless they personally attack me.  In all my years I think I've encountered one bad Asian person, in a carpark at Dickson, ACT, when he turned around and insulted me for no reason.  Perhaps he had a bad day but it was nothing to do with me.


No projecting is coming from me at all. I treat people according to how they treat me. In fact, the last time an Asian person insulted me, it was when he was out with his friends at an eatery. He was leering at my daughter (who was not yet of age to consent). His friends joined in on the noisy "Mmm, mmm, mmm" nodding away as they stared at my daughter. Not that I would condemn all Indians for his (and his friends) actions. But, I spoke up and was insulted for speaking up.

I read your posts in the context that the Indian guy was justified in his actions because he was, allegedly, suffering the psychological affects of the British giving his grand parents an inferiority complex when the British ruled India.

Do you want to laugh at my insincere idea that I should claim compensation for being part of the descendants who worked as low-paid labourers and farmers in England and Wales in the 18th century? The basic idea of my previous post was to point out that I am not suffering the psychological affects of being a descendant of people who worked as tavern keeprs and farmers, etc. I should not be entitled to being compensated for previous problems that my ancestors endured.

As such, you have consented to saying that you would laugh at indigenous Australians who think that they are owed a living for what their ancestors endured.

Hating on anyone because of the perception of their being part of some group is racism... so hating on people you reckon are racists is racist......


The belief that race accounts for the superiority and inferiority capabilities of people is "racism". Being part of a group would not mean that you are subjected to racism, simply for being part of a group.

Racists are part of any racial background. If you were serious in the interpretation of the meaning, you would find that white people are the least racist people in the world.

See this?


I certainly have seen this sort of behaviour. It took until I was working as a pizza delivery driver in my late teens that I began to see this quite common. I recall police needing to be called to my store to deal with a couple of louts that decided that they needed to pick a fight with one of my employees. After the police spent some minutes trying to fight these two clowns, the supervisor (20 years of age) asked them if they needed back up. The officer gave a sardonic "Yeah, that'll be great".

I remember being told about the co-worker getting mugged by a large group of indigenous people because they thought that they had a right to mug white people. I also recall the latter part of the year 2000 when groups of indigenous people -- aged teens to their 40s -- roamed Rockhampton looking to fight anyone not indigenous. The police sirens blared all over town.

Just recently, vigilante groups -- sick of hearing the constant car thefts -- took to patrolling the town in convoys. I recall seeing the vigilantes lining up in the drive-thru at McDonalds. They chanted their vigilante slogan whilst they awaited their meals. Then they went on their way to patrol neighbourhoods of people suspected of the car thefts.

Rockhampton (and Mackay) has given probably 40 years of leniency towards indigenous people. It has only been the last 2 years that vigilante groups have sprung up deciding that "enough is enough". Whilst I do not condone vigilante behaviour, I certainly understand their motivations behind the vigliante groups. I have personally witnessed at least 3 car thefts in my suburb. If there was a matter of car owners dragging the car thieves out of the car and beating them to a pulp, I would actually understand. They certainly would be justified.

Riots that happen in public places should be dealt with as quickly and as efficiently as possible. I no longer give indigenous people any leniency for their self-inflicted antisocial and unlawful behaviour.

We owe indigenous people nothing. They lost. Indigenous people currently have the right to retain their culture. But, if they want to live in a civilisation, they can leave any antisocial behaviour behind.

Indigenous people have had 40,000+ years to get their act together. If they cannot do it inside 5 years, they are not trying.

If I was idle, like many indigenous people on the dole, I would not be on the dole for longer than 6 months. In fact, if I did not show up to my job network meetings, I would have had my welfare cancelled in no uncertain terms. Try that sort of thing with indigenous people, they will riot through the streets and get put into custody for a feed, a bed, and shelter.

I was on Youth Allowance from the year 1999 to 2006. Then I was on Newstart until some years ago. Then it was changed to JobSeeker.

There have been comment about me on how I am a capable person, but not working more than 20 hours a week (most of the time). I have been challenged to work more than 40 hours a week, just to test if I was up to the task of working full-time hours. I succeeded. The only question left to ask is which place of employment will accept me. There have been a lot of knock backs from employment places, despite the hundreds of applications I have made. I will have to rely on my current TAFE course teacher to put me (and fellow students) in contact with relevant employment, during my training in the next few months.

My parents live in a house surrounded by indigenous housing commission homes. One such family, being drug dealers and avid racists, have been nothing but a drain on the safety and security of their neighbours. I would love for them to pack up and move to Perth to be living next door to you. I bet after a month of having them there, you would be no longer disagreeing with me about the deception of indigenous treatment.

Indians have been on record, speaking in English, talking about threatening Australia with a nuclear attack. All because there were news reports about Indians in Australia attacking other Indians, and then blaming Australia. Indians have a severe racism against foreigners and other races issue, and it has not been covered up in the media.

And if you have worked with or around Indian people, they show little regard for you, if you are not Indian. Women who have dated Indian men have not given Indian men good reviews. Indian men are very controlling of their women. You could imagine how unsettling it would have been for my 15-year-old daughter to have heard South Asian men being within earshot of her Mmm-hmm in varying tones whilst they leered at her. Indian men consider blonde women (and girls) as prostitutes.

That is clear double standards, right there, Brian. Either their ancestors were part of the problem or part of the solution. It is hard to be both. My white ancestors worked hard to get what they earned. I can only try to live up to their standards of work ethic. Indigenous people don't talk about their ancestors. It is forbidden in some cultures to mention their names or what they look like.

Oh, rubbish. You are subjected to the rules of law and the society you inhabit. Whether you want to ditch the language and culture is not something that gets forced, no matter how many times it has been tried. Even dead languages are making a come back in places. I happen to be trying to learn new languages and cultures. Indigenous Australians are their own worst enemies when it comes to losing the culture.

Not sure who you're referring to, there, Unsub.  As I've said most Indians that I have encountered have been respectful and have regarded me as their equals.  Perhaps you hang around ill-educated ones?

Well .... when people start to put comments like 'bunch of old white people' in place of discussion of a NO case meeting, and steer away from the issues for all Stakeholders with Rights and in need of a Voice ...... not only is that first group racist, but they are ageist as well and probably sexist and supremacist ..... not to even mention genderist....

Funny how some are so lost they imagine that only selected groups can have Rights and need a Voice or anything..... and the moment any different Voice is heard, they jump up and down as if this is some obscenity.... that is pure madness....

Good reason to vote NO just to counter the utterly stupid out there.

I'll repeat myself. The voice, for starters. How about instead of dribbling some nonsense again, you tell us whether you realise yet that this amendment to the constitution would treat people differently on the basis of race.

Here's your definition in a nutshell:-

“The Voice has to be able to give advice. If nothing that the Voice says is subject to  the ordinary laws of Australia, in other words, it’s completely gutted and has no safe standing, if you like, then the government can ignore all of the Voice’s decisions with impunity.”  - Marcia Langton.

So when someone demands that an entirely race-based body MUST have its views not only listened to by government but accepted without question by that government - that is clearly both racism and supremacism.

WTF is going on in Albo's head and Labor's heads?  How dare they foist such insanity on all others?  what IS the game plan here?

To set in place a precedent so as to guarantee that at a near future time, given that one small group has been handed control over the nation, a single party can be handed the same level of control over the entire nation?  The bolsheviks will be upon us - and Labor will do a Nazi Party and vote itself permanent power in Australia?

WTF is that mad man doing?  Why did you vote for modern Labor?

I Told You So!!

If there are children around and police witness someone making crude remarks, that person can be charged with obscene language. The first time I sat in court watching someone charged with that, the person received a $50 fine.

Indigenous people are mainly in gaol for matters of paying off fines that they cannot afford to pay.

Not in the Enlightened States, they aren't.  Nobody goes to prison for unpaid fines now in those states...... and yet the Aborigines make up a huge percentage of the inmates..... according to a prison officer I spoke to, 25% are there for relationship violence of one kind or another.... always involving violence not just Clayton's Violence that the feminists love so much for its advantages in their jihads...

In the Enlightened States they are in prison for crimes... methinks you are dreaming or listening too much to mothra the self-proclaimed expert who says the same thing....


"    4.1 Indigenous people were 17.3 times more likely to be arrested than non-Indigenous people. The over-representation rate in Western Australia is four times the national average.

    4.2 Incarceration of Indigenous people in Australia has increased by 61 per cent between 1988 and 1995. Incarceration of non-Indigenous people has increased by 38 per cent.

    4.3 Indigenous people in 1995 were 14.7 times more likely to be imprisoned than non-Indigenous people.

    4.4 Indigenous people are more likely to be imprisoned for assault, break and enter, motor vehicle offences, property offences and justice procedures offences. They are also more likely to be arrested for good order offences.

    4.5 Indigenous people are twice as likely as non-Indigenous people to be arrested in circumstances where assault occasioning no harm is the most serious offence. They are three times more likely to be imprisoned for such an offence. This indicates that provocative policing is continuing through the use of the trifecta (offensive language, resisting arrest and assaulting a police officer – often occasioning no harm).

Things must have changed in the last 12 years. A former co-worker (at a different job I had) said that if you cannot afford to pay a large fine, you could opt to go to prison for a few days to pay off the fine at a rate of $100 a day. That is what he did when he racked up a large number of traffic fines that he could not pay. He did his time in prison. But, he was suspended from driving for a long time afterwards. And the suspension from driving continue to be extended because he kept getting caught driving whilst suspended.

Indigenous people have a high rate of imprisonment for violence. But, judging by reports about indigenous people attending court for criminal matters, most of them get suspended sentences and let go to do it all again. If indigenous people were arrested, convicted and imprisoned at the same rate that white people were arrested, convicted and imprisoned, there would be a lot more indigenous people in prison. Police don't even bother arresting indigenous people simply based on many indigenous people just getting a warning for what non-indigenous people would get convicted.

If you look at that list of things Aborigines (primarily) ended up in prison for - there is the Aboriginal trifecta I mentioned... abusive language, resist arrest and assault police.... and even traffic fines were a joke - any man driving alone was fair game for a fine... even driving a 998cc Mini Minor could get you a speeding fine outside the cities if you just happened to feel like a drive to check somewhere out where you've never been before... flat out at 60 mph it was.... made no difference.

I don't doubt they still do it to Abos..... then wonder why they just don't bother not to do crimes and such.  They know they'll get done for something anyway, so why not make it worthwhile?

there would be no "box tickers" ....

We have this in QLD -

Quote:
The State Penalties Enforcement Registry (SPER) is responsible for the collection and enforcement of unpaid fines and penalties, including: infringement notice fines (for offences such as speeding, parking illegally or toll evasion) court-ordered monetary penalties. offender debt recovery orders.


Some repeat offenders just keep racking up the SPER debts like there's no tomorrow....

one young ratbag around here a while ago had over $35,000 in SPER debt .... he didn't give a phuk.... & he's not alone in that dept.

The only alternative for idiots like that is a stint in lock up before they kill someone.

Yeah bullshyte...... there are varying speed limits & the vehicle would be capable of going faster than some of them at some stage.

Or do you drive a Fred Flinstone car or a kids peddle car?

Anyway you can challenge any traffic fine .... not too many challenges are ever successful.

It's coming to that - you'll either be an Australian or on the outside... I did say that this was actually Albo's plan - he's brought about the very discussions he wanted us to have - about Aboriginal problems, special rights, handovers, and whether we all should be one or many and if many separate or not.

Everyone has the right to refuse a seat in the lifeboats.... better to offer those who are wavering and causing trouble first option on 'in or out?' ... if you choose OUT then you get nothing... no room or time for strap-hangers and troublemakers.

Many other issues arise, too under Albo's Plan - immigration etc at long last... how and what and when .... then there is our basic underlying economic structures or lack thereof.... just a wide open land of consumers needing to make money any way they can and some given massive handouts for whining .... and some think that makes for the best society....

It's a disaster and going down fast.... and rather than bringing it all together, AlboCorp is splitting it further and further ...

How about land ownership and purchase rights, right to free legal use of your own land, right to use national parks and icons freely, right to freedom of the seas and rivers and use of naturally occurring life supports like water, simple right to access the beach through an empty zone where nobody lives ... right to name a place using the majority approach without it being overturned by some idiot bureaucrat to suit a mongrel breed of whingers, right to expect the law to protect your property and person when you are simply going about your legal business and not stand back and encourage Kristallnacht ...... there'll be countless other things... list them...

When a government deliberately builds two nations side by side, separate but equal, and constantly trashes the majority side to suit the minority side on race grounds - there you have racism writ large...

Time to get rid of your politicians as a group, and their mates in the public services who are wielding unrestricted power to change things their way as they choose after their 'department' etc is stacked with one side of the question so as to produce the required result.

Time to force changes on your education system so that it reflects all realities and not one....

The Aboriginal Voice is a race-based proposal. Aboriginality is a racial identifier. It is not merely cultural or spiritual  - you cannot convert to Aboriginality just as you cannot convert to being black or white or Asian. You have to be biologically descended from Aborigines.

You have to be racially Aboriginal to be on the Voice and to be spoken for by the Voice. But Aborigines themselves estimate that out of the 800,000 people identifying as Aboriginal, some 300,000 are faking it. See SBS's Insight from October 2022.
https://www.sbs.com.au/news/insight/article/community-leaders-warn-many-who-clai...

If the country is constitutionally and subsequently legally divided as long racial lines, Aboriginal racial heritage should be genetically tested, proven and recorded. The Nurnmberg race laws said that you were a Jew if you had 3 or 4 Jewish grandparents and a mixed-race with 1-2 Jewish grandparents. What proportion of of one's ancestry should be Aboriginal to qualify for being Aboriginal for Voice purposes? 1/4? 1/8? 1/16? 1/32?
How should it be recorded? Where?

Oh, dearie, dearie, me, Soren and what tests would they be? There are no tests that prove or disprove a person's Indigenousness.  Indigenousness is not testedable.  Indeed, even proposing such test betrays the proposer's Racism.  They seek to justify their dislike of Indigenous people is more than just skin deep.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

DNA the lot of them..... start with Mabo clan - I'm prepared to bet that a huge percentage of the female DNA is mixed more  than the men - due to captures and such... massacres of other groups and taking their women... that's how it's worked for millennia...

And if they refuse to have their DNA tested?

The problem is, in order to prove you are different to people, you need to impose exactly what you supposedly rail against - an authoritarian regime.  You seem happy to impose your views on other people withot a care, as long as the results support your viewpoint.  The problem is what do if it doesn't?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

So Aborigines raising the issue are racists. Right-o, cockwomble.



According to Ms Ingram, this race-shift begins with self-identification as an Indigenous person and leads to distortions of culture and people.

The Commonwealth’s three-point criteria for Indigenous identification includes: Indigenous by descent, self-identification as an Indigenous person, and acceptance by a registered Indigenous organisation.

Critiquing the validity of the beyond birth rate increase in the First Nations population, Ms Ingram argued, if the newly identified group were to be tested against the three-point criteria, from the 812,728 people who self-identified as Indigenous, “there has been data to suggest that [the population] should actually be about 300,000 less.”

However, she explained the problem lies not only with the individual, but also rests upon the non-Indigenous “enablers” who accept the potential misrepresentation, without having knowledge or qualifications to know what is truthful and what is cultural identity fraud.
This is something that Australians really do need to start asking ourselves. … Otherwise, it's just going to erase Aboriginal persons.

Three-point criteria, not one of three. So their claims of descent should be tested, not just their self-identification. Their acceptance and its basis should also be tested.

You can call yourself what ever you like, Bobby.  However, other Indigenous people might protest at your use of a Racist name and you still need to be accepted by a real group of Indigenous people as Indigenous.  I am unsure why you persist with the use of a Racist name.  It is not becoming to your mentality.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Privilege? Who's talking privilege?

Do you mean the privilege of not being assigned characteristics because of your race, old boy?

ABORIGINAL voice.
Adjective= describes a characteristic.

I am sorry if it is beyond you, frightbat. I thought you were for the ABORIGINAL voice to parliament. I didnt realise that you have no idea what the adjective signifies in that phrase.

Mebbe ask Arssie or Thicko Gino.

So it is possible for a government department called "the voice" to speak on behalf of all of these aborigines, who are identified by race, without assigning any common characteristics to them?

Listen to what Noel Pearson had to say:

‘I say to multicultural communities in the campaign that I am involved [with] around the country. I say to them, “Listen, where do you fit into Australia? It’s a bit unclear. Are you with the mob from the UK? Are you kind of honorary settlers? Because some of you are the wrong colour. Or you don’t come from Northern Europe. You come from Africa, you come from Asia, you come from South America – you come from all over the joint. You come from China. I say to them, where do you fit in Australia?”’

So, let me just say this to you, Noel Pearson, that was absolutely disgusting.

Why isn’t the Race Discrimination Commissioner coming down on Noel Pearson – dragging him in front of the Human Rights Commission – because that was an utter disgrace.

Every one of us in Australia strives to make this the most successful multi-racial nation on Earth, and how dare you, Noel Pearson, sit there and say that somehow we – white Northern European Anglos – are ‘different’ … that you’ve got to choose between the two mobs. How dare you.

That was the most disgusting thing I have heard, and anybody out there who is thinking of voting ‘Yes’, you are voting ‘Yes’ to racism. I have said that from day one and I will say that all the way through.

‘Yes’ means ‘Yes’ to racism. And if you can look yourself in the mirror after listening to that and then vote ‘Yes’ then good luck to you because it was disgusting.

It is unbelievably offensive.

Oh, dearie, dearie, me, Soren and what tests would they be? There are no tests that prove or disprove a person's Indigenousness.  Indigenousness is not testedable.  Indeed, even proposing such test betrays the proposer's Racism.  They seek to justify their dislike of Indigenous people is more than just skin deep.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

.

So Aborigines raising the issue are racists. Right-o, cockwomble.



According to Ms Ingram, this race-shift begins with self-identification as an Indigenous person and leads to distortions of culture and people.

The Commonwealth’s three-point criteria for Indigenous identification includes: Indigenous by descent, self-identification as an Indigenous person, and acceptance by a registered Indigenous organisation.

Critiquing the validity of the beyond birth rate increase in the First Nations population, Ms Ingram argued, if the newly identified group were to be tested against the three-point criteria, from the 812,728 people who self-identified as Indigenous, “there has been data to suggest that [the population] should actually be about 300,000 less.”

However, she explained the problem lies not only with the individual, but also rests upon the non-Indigenous “enablers” who accept the potential misrepresentation, without having knowledge or qualifications to know what is truthful and what is cultural identity fraud.
This is something that Australians really do need to start asking ourselves. … Otherwise, it's just going to erase Aboriginal persons.
https://www.sbs.com.au/news/insight/article/community-leaders-warn-many-who-clai...

Three-point criteria, not one of three. So their claims of descent should be tested, not just their self-identification. Their acceptance and its basis should also be tested.




Labor prime minister Bob Hawke, on Australia Day 1988, the bicentennial of British settlement, said: “In Australia, there is no hierarchy of descent; there must be no privilege of origin.”





Privilege? Who's talking privilege?

Do you mean the privilege of not being assigned characteristics because of your race, old boy?



..... as you shiftless Booris and Boori-lovers do with White people... just to set the record straight... you're showing your milk of human kindness again - and how selective it is... it's a modern mental illness... feelings trump you know.....

Why is it wacist to wonder how mocha a mixed race kid is going to be?



During the Oprah Winfrey interview Meghan claimed that while she was pregnant with Archie, a member of the Royal family had “concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born”, which drew gasps of astonishment from Winfrey. Meghan declined to name the royal saying it “would be very damaging to them” to do so.

On his TalkTV show, Morgan said that he didn’t believe the two royals were racist, but he named them as King Charles and Catherine, the Princess of Wales. He said people outside of the United Kingdom could read them, and that naming them in the UK would allow an open debate about the circumstances of the accusation.

“I don’t believe that any racist comments were ever made by any of the royal family,’’ Morgan said. “And until there is actual evidence of those comments being made I will never believe it.”




A hypothetical

Anthony Albanese’s claim that his failed referendum was not a personal loss for him has sparked anger among top figures in the Yes campaign, with one Aboriginal leader indicating the remarks were proof white Australia would take no responsibility for the voice’s rejection.

The Prime Minister said on Monday the result was not “a loss for him” because he was not Indigenous and the debate was not about politicians.
...

Indigenous leader Sean ­Gordon, who supported the voice in an alliance with constitutional conservatives, agreed with Mr ­Albanese that Indigenous ­Australians were resilient people. Mr Gordon was a member of Mr Albanese’s referendum working group.

When asked about the Prime Minister’s assertion that the voice defeat was no loss for him, Mr Gordon replied that this was the issue for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, who comprised a small percentage of the population.

“It’s the challenge of our 3.7 per cent,” Mr Gordon said.

“Regardless of the issue or the outcome, the 96.3 per cent white Australia are able to comfortably move forward without any ownership, responsibility or accountability for the result.”
https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/politics/voice-referendum-a-loss-for-the...

1.  Albo has nuffin' to do with nuffin'.

2. A glimpse into the us-and-them mentality of Aborigines: for them everybody else is 'white Australian".

Well, gee... Apologies to those African-, Indian-, Asian-, Middle Eastern-, and Southern European-Australians who do not identify as 'white'.

And apologies to those European Australians who have never identified with the (mis)categorisation of their respective ethnicities.

Wanting special powers and rights to accrue to one because of racial heritage and perpetually advocating for the superiority of the chosen lifestyle and history .... easy as pie...

Now that we've settled that.... why do the Abos persist with it?

"Anthony Albanese’s claim that his failed referendum was not a personal loss for him has sparked anger among top figures in the Yes campaign, with one Aboriginal leader indicating the remarks were proof white Australia would take no responsibility for the voice’s rejection."

That statement sparked a belly laugh among me....... and the rats begin to turn on each other as the ship fills with water... climb over one another to escape from the locked hold from which there is no escape....

There are such things as 'Aboriginal leaders'?  I thought they were all just self-interested big mouthed assholes wanting the top slots in AboCorp Australia so they can rort to their heart's content.

Good thing the good people of Australia voted their atrocity down and offered the hand of friendship to the ordinary Aborigine as opposed to their self-anointed 'leadership' that lives off top dollar by the day while the kids starve and go shoeless and learn the life of crime and rotating door prisons for life while being neglected, raped and abused, sometimes daily.

Exactly which of those arseholes actually does anything positive for Aboriginal Australia - I mean - other than collect top dollar for whining daily?

Did we miss anything, Igor?  I'd hate to not be inclusive of all the evil here...

He who represents the USA, as all Prime Ministers do these days. All powerful under the call to America in its rule over Australia - the Down Under 'good doggie' 51st State.

...he can do anything he likes, especially in today's climate of the Democrats getting away with anything they like and say because hey, who or what are going to do anything about it anyway?

Albanese: "Shut up and get what you're given Australia!"

...kinda true in that Australia is a nation of 'international dependency' in so many ways. Both Politically and Media influenced, especially when Politics from America has been run by the Media narrative and Celebrities for so long.

The US is withdrawing from the world - it has already begun de-committing from protecting blue-water trade routes.

The US is preparing for a period of isolationism.

Because under the Democraps - they failed dismally at the International arena. Little wonder they collapsed from within and stuffed their own country up. This was predictable/predicted in regards to the Democraps if they got back into Power. Old news.

They are not collapsing from within.

The Cold War is over and it is no longer in the interests of the US to protect world trade such that its rivals (like China and Russia) benefit from US protection.

The Blue North Democratics beat the Grey South Confederations in a Civil War over a 'Domestic' issue.
The Blue North proved it was superior at a Domestic level.

The Confederations may have proved superior at dealing with Internationals, but because Politics 'broke down' and War destroyed one half of that 'binary' system. The Confederation aspect in American Politics (when it was formulated long ago, along with Democracy, Liberalism and more) is no longer around.

What we saw is the Blue North Demcrats chasing a weakness (International) and not following their strength (Domestic). Thus they have basically turned themselves 'inside-out' in an effort to cope under modern pressures of a changing world and America.
They 'over-achieved' internationally and thus 'under-achieved' domestically.
They will Politically fail soon as a Party. Democracy, like Confederation - will fail in America. End of the North-South aspect of Politics (The Vikings & Romans  Grin).
The Democrats are hanging themselves basically.
All the Republicans are doing is giving them enough rope to do it.  Wink
Just like Great Britain is politically stepping back in Europe because they too are giving France 'enough rope', as France still deems itself the 'Superior' Political nation of Europe. Well, we'll see soon, eh? Wink

So poor Trump, even if he gets back in a President. He'll be basically forced to deal with 'the mess' the Democrats have made of everything. He'll be Great Again - but America will never be 'Great Again' until a White West (Liberals) Party emerges to balance/binary with the Red East Republic Party - after the 'Suicide' of the Democratics.

Out with the South and now North. (Failure of Confederation & Democracy)
In with the East and 'West' Wink
(Success with Republic'ism and Liberalism)

Anglospheric and European supremacy is currently being challenged across the world, but the determiners of who wins depend on demographics and economic and political stability.

China is set to collapse economically as the US protection of blue-water trade routes causes a crisis for China with its food and energy security - this has already begun.

Politically, China's system under Xi is so unstable that the political system will collapse upon his death or fall from power.

Demographically China is in a major crisis with the full effects of the one-child policy having bitten.

This puts Australia (with its political and relative demographic/economic stability) at an advantage in its relationships with India and Southeast Asia, provided there is no uncontainable rise of an assertive Indonesia or India.

When Xi dies, the ancient entrenched system will follow its usual course and the warlords of the chosen few families will seek to ascend the top spot so as to secure the billions.

China was becoming, and became, a prosperous nation under the likes of Hu Jintao and Jiang Zemin.

The CCP's contract with the people was to leave politics to the CCP and the party would deliver prosperity.

Xi Jinping is reversing all political and economic reforms of his predecessors and rules with more concentration of power than even Mao Zedong had, to the point that he has isolated himself from the CCP and any advisors.

Xi is so isolated, in fact, that he was unaware of the spy balloon incident until the US told him.

Xi believes that rampant prosperity has rotted the Chinese soul and wants to return the nation to back-to-basics Maoist ideology.

Xi is amassing so much resentment towards the CCP via his back-to-basics rededication to Maoism that there is a severe risk of the Chinese people and powerful dynasties tearing the Chinese state apart - particularly as China is no longer a competitive labour market, having been eclipsed by SE Asia and India, meaning things are only going to get worse than they already are.

The CCP has broken its deal with the Chinese peoples: prosperity in exchange for political power.

Politically, China's system under Xi is so unstable that the political system will collapse upon his death or fall from power.


How does it differ from the system before Xi?

China was becoming, and became, a prosperous nation under the likes of Hu Jintao and Jiang Zemin.

The CCP's contract with the people was to leave politics to the CCP and the party would deliver prosperity.

Xi Jinping is reversing all political and economic reforms of his predecessors and rules with more concentration of power than even Mao Zedong had, to the point that he has isolated himself from the CCP and any advisors.

Xi is so isolated, in fact, that he was unaware of the spy balloon incident until the US told him.

Xi believes that rampant prosperity has rotted the Chinese soul and wants to return the nation to back-to-basics Maoist ideology.


If he dies, won't the party just continue with its recent precedents?

Xi is amassing so much resentment towards the CCP via his back-to-basics rededication to Maoism that there is a severe risk of the Chinese people and powerful dynasties tearing the Chinese state apart - particularly as China is no longer a competitive labour market, having been eclipsed by SE Asia and India, meaning things are only going to get worse than they already are.

The CCP has broken its deal with the Chinese peoples: prosperity in exchange for political power.


His predecessors starved 50 million people to death by trying to feed them all equally. Somehow I think they will forgive Xi. If they are not starving, they will probably call it a communist success story. Maybe even if they are starving.

Mao starved 50 million Chinese peoples to death and he was lucky to survive it himself.

Being the consummate totalitarian politician he was, Mao exploited the people's anger by deflecting it to 'counter-revolutionaries' and started the Cultural Revolution - thus reasserting his absolute authority by killing or exiling all his former comrades and accusers - Xi's family included.

The Chinese people are unlikely to fall for that again.

They know it happened. The Chinese are immensely better educated and exponentially more affluent than their peasant-farmer parents/grandparents were in the 50s and 60s.

And what they also know is that Xi's regressing the nation back to Maoism, and his own childhood, is heralding the end of the Chinese rapid economic ascent of the last 40 years.

You're assuming that the collapse of the CCP will lead to the rise of democracy and freedom of the press.

Potential challengers to CCP power and dissenters have a habit of disappearing and dying in China... Or are accused of crimes against the people and sentenced to life in prison.

Totalitarian systems are not meritocracies. Power is doled out to the power dynasties that control parts of the system, and usually only when their murder is more dangerous to the paramount leader than it's worth.

But Xi is closer in ruthless psychopathy to Mao than other former leaders were. He is systematically removing and destroying his potential opponents regardless of the personal risk to him or his family. To counter anyone getting close enough to him to end him, he meets with almost no one.

Simple - this is an example of racism.... how much is it going to cost you in 'rent money' to go down to the river/creek now for a barbie with your close family, now that the Ebony At The Gates is 'managing' it for you all - meaning imposing a fee to enter and use where it used to be free?  While you dorks are sleeping and the media circus is playing up apparent 'divisions' between 'Aboriginal leaders' and Albo and Co over reasons for the loss of the voice idiocy -  they are quietly going about implementing The Twenty Six Pages that never existed... organising for YOU to 'pay the rent' by other means with the aid (make that Mental/Intellectual AIDS) of the Labor controlled states, all marching in lockstep.  The truth is so precious a commodity that it must be surrounded by a bodyguard of lies.... while you imagine Albo is falling out with the Ebony At The Gates, and apparently falling over himself to 'distance' himself from the voice result - he is setting it all in place behind your backs...... and Australia sleeps on...

How much are you prepared to pay out of your weekly family bills just to go down to the stream for a barbie like you used to - just another hidden way to 'pay the rent'?  $60 per family?  $80? $100? Then try to go to work and make ends meets when the food bills and the power bills and the petrol bills come in? Gotta pay your 'user pays' - it's all legit and all implemented while you slept, dorks.

This is like India handing over control of the water from the Himalayas to a tiny set of Muslims ... or China handing over to Uyghurs control over the water flowing into Beijing.... or Japan handing a free lease over Tokyo Bay to the tiny group related to the long-ago original inhabitants of the Japanese Islands....

Ebony At The Gates - an Albocorp Production ...

It's true that dogs can identify and react to the pheromonal differences among distinct ethnicities.

If the owner and family have a fear or dislike of a particular ethnicity, their dogs will be inclined to bark louder and act more aggressively if they smell a member of the disliked ethnicity as they walk by the house.

Ah.
Do they smell differently because of diet and personal hygiene habits or is there some deeper cause?

Given anyone can have a bad diet and bad personal hygiene habits...

Dogs can detect ethnicity, but the crucial factor determining their reaction is the attitude of their owners/family towards the ethnicity of the other.

Hard to say, dear chap. In the other thread you're scoffing over the idea of eating Thai food making one a dirty Oriental, so who knows?

Perhaps those dogs picked up you've been reading the Tree of Man.

I always did feel Patrick White was rather overrated.

Sometimes a question is just a question.

Still, we all remember the 2008 FD's dogged adherence to Hegelian fundamentalism. Economic reform would inevitably, irrecoverably bring the Chows Freeeeeedom, remember? You swore by it.

A decade later, a new prez and the Chows pulled up the shutters, jailed their billionaires, took Hong Kong, played trade wars with the West and turned out to be going in the completely  opposite direction of that liberal democratic end-of-history you assured us they would arrive at any day now, we'll have to wait and see what happens.

Ee-gad, even Francis Fukuyama said he got it wrong. You?

No, you said, it will happen.

How? We said.

It just will, you said.

It won't, we said.

Yes it will, you said. And it went like that for a good 20 pages.

So. What do you have to say for yourself now?

Dogs are colourblind/colour deficient.

The owners do not need to be aggressively verbally attacking & yelling at ethnic others, they only have to send subconscious signals to the dog - usually via pheromones and/or adrenalin/cortisol.

Dogs can also smell fear and they are highly sensitive to the mood of their 'pack' (i.e. owner and family).

Strangers are others to the pack and therefore the dog would be wary of all strangers.

However, if the dog associates the pheromones of a particular stranger group that it also associates with its pack's heightened sense of fear/aggression/anxiety, it will act more aggressively when it smells their presence.

Human war dances and a dog's display of aggression have a lot in common.

No.... are you?

What I'm suggesting is that dogs see people as people..... not colours.

What happens when an ethnic gets a dog for a pet?

Does it only bark at/react to other ethnicities?

35 years ago at the Gregory Downs pub they had a blue heeler behind the bar.

We were told not to, for any reason put our hands/reach over the bar as the dog would fasten onto you.

When asked why the had a dog like that behind the bar, the bar attendant(14 yr old boy) said it was because of a certain racial group who would come into the bar and take money out of the till when times were busy/ or they ran a distraction --

but he said it didn't matter to the dog what colour you were - if you reached over the bar - it would have you.

He also said the publican was thinking of replacing the dog after it fastened onto someone who reached over the bar and didn't draw blood.

Said the dog was getting soft.

Are you suggesting the races become indistinguishable in a black and white photo?

Ironically, that is the level of stupidity 'racism' has got to in the US, where Asian and Latino Americans are now considered 'white'.

How long before (sub-continental) Indian Americans ae considered 'white', I wonder.

What happens when an ethnic gets a dog for a pet?

Does it only bark at/react to other ethnicities?

A dog's primary sense is smell, not sight.

Yes, if, say, an Aboriginal clan does not like non-Aboriginals, their dogs will associate non-Aboriginal pheromones as a signal of danger.

That's an example of an owner who did not send conscious/subconscious signals of ethno-chauvinism to the dog, but danger signals of inappropriate proximal distance.

It also shows that the dog was making judgement calls on the degree of aggression required to deter the intruder - a sign that the dog was well-socialised with many ethnicities, to the point that it did not trigger hyper-aggression in the dog.

BLACK is Superior.

Darker the skin, the more masculine.

Both modern and historical art/media depict 'males' as being darker in appearance than females. This is a known fact.

Males are Dark/Black
Females are White.

West African women bleach their skin whiter to appear more feminine.
Japanese women use white make-up to appear more feminine.

White Males on Harley Davidsons and in Music Bands wear Black Clothing to appear more 'masculine', cool and tough.

Fact is that the Marriage Ceremony traditionally has the Male in Black, the Female in 'Virgin' White.

BLACK GROOM  &  WHITE BRIDE.


...in the future, the DNA will recognise the majority of successful breeding partnerships and thus - all 'boys' will be born naturally 'darker/black' and the girls will come out whiter.

White is regressive - submissive, like a female.

Black is DOMINANT gene - like a male.

Now THIS, Poppets - is what 'racism' is all about ... ascribing certain characteristics to a specified group as opposed to individuals .... same as sexism ... it works ALL ways and not one that has been hijacked by the 'activist class' of one 'side'.

Time for this madness to be halted in its tracks wherever it is and individuals to be elevated to the top for consideration, not just groups or some group the 'activist' wants to allocate them to for convenience and due to their own lack of ability to think.

A dog can discern the common features of any group or individual its owners have either trained the dog to be wary of or that it intuits from its owner, using primarily smell and/or sight.

They can sniff out Blacks On The Rampage and bark to keep the bastards away from you ..... but then the council will get on to you for having a 'savage dog'.... you bastard!!  I had that problem with my Golden Lab, with Mussos poking sticks at him until he barked and growled - council bloke came around and I threw him out.... the postie got into it and said - "That dog comes around my run with me for company and to protect me!"

Exactly it's BS ... racism in the Agricultural sector?

Aboriginals were employed & still are employed as stockmen for as long as there's been a beef industry on the continent.

Now they get given large scale cattle stations all over the country & they're crying racism in the industry?

Mind you many of the stations handed over were failed concerns after a short period because they simply rounded up cattle when the wanted money & sent a few decks away until there were no cattle left.

Or they didn't manage them to the point where they allowed hundreds of cattle to die of thirst on a Kimberly station.

Quote:
Two years ago almost 500 cattle died of thirst on Noonkanbah Station in the Kimberley.

Yungngora Association and its former chief executive have been charged under the Animal Welfare Act.

DPIRD is also investigating mass cattle deaths at another Indigenous-owned property in the Pilbara.23 Dec 2020


https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-12-24/animal-cruelty-charges-laid-over-mass-cat...

Quote:
The operators of a cattle station in Western Australia's Pilbara region have been fined $50,000 over the deaths of cattle from serious neglect.

The Mugarinya Community Association, which operates the Yandeyarra Reserve near Port Hedland, was charged with animal cruelty after more than 1,000 animals died from thirst or starvation in January 2019.


It wasn't the first time Yandeyarra Reserve had a mass death incident. There was also a mass cattle death there in 2012.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-12-20/operators-fined-50k-over-death-of-1000-ca...

And of course the old "RACIST" card was played as an excuse in the aftermath of this mismanagement/neglect on these Aboriginal Group run properties.

Quote:
Pilbara racism row breaks out over mass cattle deaths.

Tony Barrass
The West Australian
Sun, 3 March 2019 2:20PM

A bitter war of words has broken out across WA’s vast north, with farmers claiming political correctness is silencing debate and outrage over the mass deaths of cattle on indigenous-owned pastoral leases.

As authorities confirm the number of dead has now passed 1000 head, WA’s peak farming group has called on Aboriginal groups, the media and “broader society” to have an honest discussion about the failure of some indigenouscommunities to manage pastoral leases.

“What’s happened here is no different from the (sheep carrier) Awassi Express, yet where is the outrage from governments and animal rights groups,” new WAFarmers chief executive Trevor Whittington told The Sunday Times.

But Agriculture Minister Alannah MacTiernan and indigenous leaders have hit back hard, saying the issue was far more complex than “racist” throwaway lines, while the RSPCA said it welcomed any initiatives to head off any more animal welfare “disasters”.

An investigation is underway after two attackers were fought off by a 66-year-old man during a horrific home invasion.

One of the accused home invaders, 29-year-old Trae Laurie, was found dead on the front verandah of an address on Oxford Street in Kingscliff, northern New South Wales, on Tuesday night.

At 8pm, emergency services were called and tried to resuscitate Laurie who had sustained serious knife wounds to his chest.

When emergency services discovered Laurie he was wearing a face covering.

Home invasion by Boongs with an axe, etc.
...and the police will assess wether the 66 year old used 'unnecessary' force against the invaders/attackers.

Gee. Sounds like the Virtue-Signallers standing up for HAMAS.  Roll Eyes

You have to be kidding me?????

The bloke has already been struck with an axe, has a partially severed hand & these copper clowns want to determine if his self defense in his own home was necessary or proportionate??????

Should be a cut & dry case - self defense & reasonable force was used against axe wielding home invaders.

Unbelievable.

The Biden administration’s Office of Management & Budget announced a new set of even more precise racial categories that pleased white nationalists by announcing that Middle Eastern and North African Caucasians were no longer officially white. Nationalities like Iranian, Egyptian, and Israeli now have been lumped and split into their own separate Not White race.

Of course, this was due to Arab lobbyists demanding to be included in the Flight From White so they can qualify for affirmative action. Unlike delusional white nationalists, they understand that it doesn’t pay to be white anymore.

Courts in talks to abandon wigs amid claims they are ‘culturally insensitive’
Judiciary poised to update traditional dress code following criticism from black barristers



Not satire.


The potential changes come after Michael Etienne, a barrister who is black and has an afro hairstyle, sparked a public debate in 2022 after being ordered to wear a wig in court or face disciplinary action.

He branded the policy as hair discrimination, a form of racism.



Grin Grin Grin
Is there ANYTHING that is not wacist and discriminatory any more, in this age of "diversity and inclusion"???




I can't take these race hustlers and wacism-mongers seriously. They constantly emphasise how different the they are but if YOU point out that they are different, you are a wacist. 

Not to mention that they are upsetting Bbwiyawn by marking themselves out racially by such characteristics as hair, which, DNA-wise, is undetectable. But still they insist on it as a proud marker of their otherness:
Something overlooked often in black culture is that your hair is so inexplicably important and it is completely interwoven with your identity.”

You are damned if you notice their hair and colour, you damned if you don't.
I am sick of the lot, all the multicultural, diversity clown and all their boosters.

'racism' - (n)

- a self-inflicted injury ... the practice of mentioning that they predominate 76 out of 81 in woman killings while being 1 in 3 of the Territory population (but don't tell mothra) .. a fanciful assumption of moral superiority ... a convenient lie to escape truth and judgement and justice...

Being able to kill yer missus in 93.8% of cases, predominate massively in crimes of violence and theft and vandalism and so forth, and still claim to belong to a 'not criminal by nature' group and whine about being locked up and having endangered children learning the same path taken away for a better life .....

aquascoot posted a picture yesterday of some girls at a mission - all dressed in clean clothes and fed and happy .... educated they might become professionals, especially these days ...... the same girls 'out there', by age 14, would be someone's one of many wives and carrying a baby on hip and lucky to own a loin cloth and destined for a life of violence, deprivation, illness and probably early death ....

Three babies were abandoned in London over 7 years. Now it’s revealed they’re siblings


Police knew that the three children, who are
Black
, were siblings, but a judge decided on Monday that reporting restrictions – which limit what can be said about children who are victims of crimes – could be lifted, allowing the media to publish details

The Yes campaign has already been incredibly successful in intimidating any and all opponents. It has been adept at claiming everything it doesn’t like (such as Nine’s July anti-voice ad) is “racist”. Of course. Because everything in its view is racist. Including the founding of Australia. And if the founding of a country is “racist” then everything in it is “racist”.

I see decent commentators trying to make their partial or full “don’t hurt me” statements. One recently did the compulsory knee-bend about the way in which, compared with the Aboriginal people, “we’ve all just stepped off the boat”. Well, just see how far that gets you. And wonder where else such kowtowing would be encouraged. Would you like to scour England and tell all the people who’ve stepped off the boat more recently than the Anglo-Saxons that they have some apologising to do? I’d like to see someone try.


Independent Senator Lidia Thorpe pushed for a treaty with Indigenous Australians during her National Press Club…

Would you like to try this exercise in any of the kingdoms ransacked by the Mongols, or the Russians? As my late friend Clive James used to say, with great wisdom, in the end “we are here because history happened”.

It could have gone any number of other ways. But it didn’t. A wise person – and a wise nation – accepts that and gets on with things.

After all, Australia’s situation is not unique. It is a situation that every nation in the world knows about to some generally greater degree. It is the story of humanity, in all its darkness and light.

Australia has the choice of conceding that it is wicked and that all failures of the Aboriginal peoples in the past and present are directly due to the “settlers”. Or it can concede that one of the least racist countries in the world should at some point give itself a break. The English did nothing wrong. Neither did any of you.

Marching for Australia on 31 August was relentlessly demonised as wacist.  Marching for the preservation of Australia's British and European cultural characteristics is called white supremacist and wacist. If you are of British or European ancestry and you want to maintain your cultural inheritance, you are labelled a wacist.

But if you are, say, Aboriginal the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Child Placement Principle prioritises the maintainance and supporting connections to family, community, culture and country for children in out-of-home care.

Why not prioritise placement with vibrant, "culturally and linguistically diverse" carers?   

Why is if wacist if people of British heritage also want to maintain a supportive connection to culture and community? Well, it isn't wacist.

I would be called wacist and white supremacist if I said I wanted my children to be taught by Australian-born, English-speaking teachers who share and are proud and supportive of my children's British-European cultural heritage.

Not only but also:



They also expected to find that the more right-wing a respondent was, the more poorly they would rate indigenous candidates on both warmth and competence, due to studies showing that “right-wing ideology predicts a considerable increase of out-group hostility in the case of ethnic prejudices”.

“We uncovered the contrary: an inverted hierarchy in which darker-skinned indigenous aspirant candidates fared better than all others,” the authors wrote.

The pushback is looming - people are sick and tired of the racuism inherent in land claims etc:-

"💩 The Goondiwindi and district dishonor roll 💩
Lachlan Brennan, Rick Kearney, Rick McDougall, Joan White, Rob Mackenzie, David Turner, Susie Kelly, Phil O’Shea, Jason Watts, Kym Skinner, Julia Spicer, Graeme Scheu, Lawrence Springborg.

Each of these people has been involved in selling out our community. They are not fighting; they are cowards, weak and spineless. Each of these people has attacked my community, my family, my dad, my mum, my Stacy, my children. Each one of you will be held accountable; you do not understand the storm that is coming.

You have until 4:55 pm Friday to issue individual apologies to the children, to the mums and dads, and to the businesses in our community that your stupid, brain-dead decisions have affected. How any one of you could justify what you have supported on our behalf in silence is inexcusable.

Every councilor will issue an action plan on their resignations; our shire cannot afford to keep losing. We need winners, not losers.

Australia’s leading Anglo-Celtic advocacy group has called on the Race Discrimination Commissioner to apologise for publishing a statement saying White people cannot experience racism.

Indian-born bureaucrat Giridharan Sivaraman, who is paid $408,000 a year in taxpayer funds by the Australian Human Rights Commission, included the claim in a Common Myths & Misconceptions About Racism guide that accompanies his National Anti-Racism Framework.

An explainer in the guide produced by Mr Sivaraman states: “Whilst White people can experience multiple forms of discrimination or prejudice based on gender, sexual orientation, ability, age, or class; they cannot experience racism.”

The guide produced by Mr Sivaraman states in an explainer: “Whilst white people can experience multiple forms of discrimination or prejudice based on gender, sexual orientation, ability, age, or class; they cannot experience racism.

“Racism is more than just prejudice, and is accompanied by power to discriminate against, oppress or limit the rights of others. Sometimes terms like “reverse racism” or “anti-white racism” are used to describe situations where White people feel they have been discriminated against because of their whiteness.

“This is a common and particularly harmful misconception, often resulting from a fundamental misunderstanding of the difference between racism and other forms of discrimination, as well as the relationship between racialisation and power.”

Ms Chandler also asked the Commissioner about statements he made in an interview earlier this year calling Australia Day racist and saying it shouldn’t be celebrated.

“Australia Day is ‘invasion day’ for our first nations brothers and sisters and is a day of mourning in many ways, and is not a day to be celebrated, and not to acknowledge that just compounds racism,” Mr Sivaraman was quoted as saying, but he told Ms Chandler he meant Australia Day was a day not to be celebrated “for some first peoples”.

Do you have a clear definition of what you consider racist or racism from a forum moderation perspective?

There are consistent, openly gratuitous attacks on racial groups here, including the use of racial slurs and stereotypes, behaviours that, on paper, would clearly breach the forum rules you've set.

So I'm curious: do you and your moderation team operate with a different standard than what is traditionally understood as racism? Or are you condoning the open racism that is regularly posted in this forum?

Do you have a clear definition of what you consider racist or racism from a forum moderation perspective?

There are consistent, openly gratuitous attacks on racial groups here, including the use of racial slurs and stereotypes, behaviours that, on paper, would clearly breach the forum rules you've set.

So I'm curious: do you and your moderation team operate with a different standard than what is traditionally understood as racism? Or are you condoning the open racism that is regularly posted in this forum?

"Racism" is a social construct without evidence

The title should actually be, "without scientific evidence" but forum limitations prevented me from being accurate.  Genetically there is more differences between individuals than between various "racial" groups, "Racism" is a social construct, something dreamed up by anthropologists to justify their classification of the various "racial" groups based on superficial differences in skin colour/eye shape/hair frizziness/nose shape/lip thickness/etc.  There are no major genetic differences between the various "races".  Humans can all interbreed.  The visible differences are because of environmental adaptation to conditions, nothing more.  It does not denote anything major Genetically. 

Genetics is the key, it is how we identify differences between groups of creatures, it is how we know a species is a species.  There is only one human species, the homo homo sapiens and we are all members.  Anything else is a social construct created by Racists.  Eugenics is dead and buried.  It was overturned by WWII and the destruction of the Nazi regime.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I am not sure why you are suggesting my definition of racism would change with the context.

Racism. The right of the archaic Rome/Athens westernism (as opposed to British Commonwealth westernism) Democrat Leftism to wage RACE WAR against the Yellow Race, but oppose anything alike in defense against the Black race.

Tg: USA's right to invade Yellow Asia with warfare. But suppressing Australia's right to defend itself against hostilities from the Blacks of Africa.

Perhaps I have it wrong then, but would not your definition be the law of the land here?

People routinely use racial slurs and spout bigoted, racist rhetoric by any measure.

Any measure, it would seem, but yours, as it is never subject to moderation.

So either the rules don't matter, you and your mod team are also racists, or you have a different way of defining it.

So I'm left wondering, given I don't think the first 2 options could possibly apply, what would you define racism as?

Racism is handing over a million acres to one group over some alleged past claim to owning the whole lot even though it was 99.999% virgin bush etc.

So then, it would seem, as there are no overtly Aboriginals, Torres Strait Islanders or Asians here, that the can be no racism against whitey. Roll Eyes

You of all people should learn when to shut up about racism, for real...

Garden variety racism is bad enough, but calling for the shooting, murder and genocide of indigenous Australians is something else...

Not too extreme for Ozpolitic.com it seems mind you, but it is for any reasonable person.

Ok Mr Intellect.
Which Racism is the best?
Sydney Racism Puts Internationals above domestic patriotism which exhibits itself like the Housos of Mt Druitt and the Abos of Redfern: violence.
Or
Melbourne Racism which puts Domestics first and internationals (immigrants) as lesser, again Sudanese, etc: violence.

So which racism?

Well - 'land' previously gained by some group under the old Imperialist Colonisation process - where one tribe comes over the hill and vanquishes another and takes over the land and then claims it to be its - are gone.

The old days when a ship or a fleet could haul to off the Heads, send in a small boat, or a wandering group come over a hill fight the locals and drive them off, and claim the land are gone... and it is bizarre that all the criticism goes against White colonisation, when Black colonisation has gone on for thousands of years - and in a much less civilised way.

So how is it not racist to go after White colonisation and land usage, but not after Black colonisation and lack of land usage etc?  Is it - like - something to do with what the Indian bloke said about Whites not being able to experience racism?

Is he packed off back home yet?

I reckon the time has come for a reckoning over all this.

When you discriminate against someone because of the colour of their skin or their racial identity, that is racism.

There is no such thing as “good racism”.

I know you will attempt to spin a policy designed to assist one group as being racist towards another (typically the group you identify with, since for many like you, the only thing you lean into more quickly than racism is victimhood), but if anything that behaviour reflects a lack of inclusion, and as someone who has used opposition to DEI to mask your prejudice, you cannot logically claim to support the “I” in DEI when you are the one seeking to be included on your own terms.

That would be hypocrisy.  And those like you are certainly not known for that... /s

Very simplistic. Dishonestly simplistic.  Nobody is discriminated against by such a simple, singular marker. Nobody.

If you are dirty, loud, unkempt, uncouth, you will be discriminated against no mater how tinted or not you are.  If you happen to be also dark-skinned, you will excuse yourself by shouting wacism.

Conversely, look at all the blonde and blue eyes Aborigines, grabbing all the benefits they can out of wacism.
