Sure it is. But I'm not surprised you can't see it,  you often struggle with reality.

Interesting juxtaposition. Pertinent.

Why is it that people shrug, sort of, when blacks are called nigglers but get touchy when whites are called stupid or supremacist or whatever the variety of niggler terms there are for whites? Why IS there a mutual antipathy, distrust, deprecation?

It can't be slavery as the nigglers don't hold the Arabs or other nigglers in the same contempt even though they were traded to the whites by other nigglers and Arabs.
With the Aborigines, some are ministers, professors, MP - others still live in sorcery, magic and tribal retribution, with a mobile phone.

My suggestion - and it's no more - is that the more primitive people are the more difficult it is for them to admit it, and to leave the primitive behind.
Sophisticated cultures have no difficulty adapting to modern Western- invented civilisation. Tribal, primitive cultures do. They cannot self-repudiate, they cannot recognise the primitiveness, so they hang on to it even if it kills them.

Tribal societies frozen in the aspic of their unbending arch-conservative ways are unable to adapt, change, outgrow because that requires an admission that they WERE frozen in unbending timeless conservatism.
You call a horse face man a dog face, he laughs with you. Call him horse face, he will hate you forever. The same with primitive people. Admitting backwardness is devastating so primitive people will put Pascoesque lipstick on anything as long as they do not have to admit the obvious - obvious to everyone else.

as a grandfather of 3 aboriginal children, one of whom is so switched on i am grooming him to be a future PM, heres what i would say for eddie to tell his kids,

and i personally like eddie betts

he should tell his kids the story of the man and the butterfly.


a man sees a cocoon and a butterfly struggling to emerge
the butterfly is strugglling and struggling and just cant get free of the cocoon.
the man is filled with compasion.(maybe he is an abc journalist)
he cant stand it anymore

he gets a pair of scissors and cuts the cocoon open carefully

the buttergly comes out but it has a bloated body and small wings

all it can do is walk around on the ground

the man did not realise that the prolonged struggle was neccessary to pump the fluid from the body into the wings to enable flight

by aiding the butterfly and trying to make its life easier, he has doomed it to never flying


thats what i would tell eddies kids and what i will tell my grandkids

when things are tough, keep going and you will fly
ask for help, give up, play the victim , ask someone stronger to remove and obstacle and you are doomed to never fly

Oh dear...

Once again parading your ignorance!

This happened in suburban Melbourne—not in Alice springs.  And the
two places are definitely not counterparts socially.  I don't even know why
you brought up the Alice incident as it has absolutely nothing to do with
the Betts' incident.

Or was it maybe just another chance for you to verbalise your consistently
racist point of view?

What would you do if a group of teenage hoons started yelling outside your
home in the middle of the night...  "Drunk white cunt, drunk white cunt" at
the top of their lungs?  What would your wife and kids say?

Just so, dear boy. Calling them out for what they are gives them the opportunity to accept their  sub-human status and conform accordingly.

Slavery ended far too soon, no?
