Can we discuss our own definition of racism?
Jul 5th, 2026 at 8:40pm
 
I met a guy from India last night while working and had a chat.

I asked him if he followed  Cricket and he was excited to say yes and we then got into a heated discussion about Australia recent performance in Pakistan ( which was pathetic, you can’t send your b team there) but it was just normal bloke banter and we were both enjoying it.

My boss butted in because obviously she doesn’t like people enjoying a bit of banter and apologised to him for my racism stereotyping of him and gave me “ that look “ that makes me worry ( she never says anything, all she has to do is look at me and I’m on seek searching for a new job 😢🤣).

He went off!!! He was fairly drunk and had been misbehaving.

He told her in word I can’t post but basically he was offended because he was Indian she was being racist by saying I was racist for asking him about cricket.

He also said several detail descriptions about her and what she can do.

I had by now retreated  and was thinking in one word “ f.uck” no( the Indian bloke was cool but when she looks at me like that I have learned the best thing is distance).

I was called back to the now aggressive situation.

Given another death stare and told to deal with the situation.

I had a chat, long story short, his wife doesn’t love him anymore and I gave him a lift home ( work car) and he was all good and we exchanged phone numbers, we plan on going for a fish.


Now I’m about to walk into the office and my boss will be there.

I swear she dies several times a week and just respawns in the office.

No matter what she’s always there.

We have checked there’s no sign of sleeping so she obviously not human.

I’m sure I won’t get the “look” again but we likely patrolling toilets and the ungodly areas.

Was I racist or was Vince right and she was racist for stereotyping him as being offended because he was Indian?

I enjoy my job because my boss ( owns the company) is fully hands on with the business.

She’s just so scared we ( her business) will get sued.

It's the done thing to posture and pontificate - make out you are a virtuous person by defending everything indefensible and making out that anyone who even thinks differently is a low-life bottom dweller in a sewer.

Look at the idiots who will fly at you if you say Hamas is vile and evil ... if you defend Israel ... if you say that chopping up healthy kids' bodies is an atrocity ... if you say that persistent discrimination, quotas and all the other clap-trap will never equalise anyone... just prove them to be unworthy of their position...

Just name the crying issues for the West at this time and you will see the same thing played out over and over - and most of the IDIOTS posturing have gained all their 'information' from internet 'creators' and 'influencers'...... not from any real world experience or even solid research.

And that carries all the way, today, to the very top of our current party in elected power in the house (not over the nation and its people - only an infant thinks that way - I rest my case).

BTW - I'm in process to work for the government again... short term... at age 77 now ...they think they hate me for several reasons, yet still employ me in need ...and one of the things I have to watch out for are obsessive 'sovereign citizens' and other malcontents.

I'm glad that you asked !



Its because now, in 2026, here, in Australia,
every person is permitted [in law] to be a polymorph.

And a polymorph is a real thing.

Seriously.

Just ask any transwoman.


e.g.
An individual, can be one social identity [entity] in one moment,
and in the next moment [i.e. in any part of the next nano second],
he/she/it, has morphed into an entirely different entity [in law].

Its true.

And.......YOU better know what it is that 'it' [has morphed into - in front of you], at this exact moment in time.  !!!

'It' may have morphed into a 'shoe', or a 'tulip'.......right in front of you !

And.......YOU better know what it is......because if you are mistaken,
that is legal evidence, that YOU are [have morphed into] a human rights violator !!!
[......because you are a reality, identity, flux, violator.]

And.......you could be arrested, and charged, and sent to The INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT [in that nation near where the Battle of Waterloo was fought a couple of centuries ago].

To be prosecuted for illegal morphing [yourself] [into an unacceptable/unlawful entity......e.g. into a sane white man].

You know it is true !!

Although the Conservatives can claim no glory whatsoever on the gangs' file, the Labour Party's abject failings make them look good by comparison. Here are some outtakes from the Lowe report, which not only spotlight Starmer's failings, but the presumed incoming leader of the Labour Party, Andy Burnham:

The Labour Party bears primary responsibility for the longest and most deliberate cover-up. As the former Conservative councillor Liam Billington emphasised to our Inquiry, Labour-dominated local councils and MPs repeatedly prioritised electoral dependence on Pakistani Muslim communities above the safety of children.

Labour councils surrendered streets, ignored parental reports, and allowed perpetrators to operate, among other reasons, because Muslim voting blocs were electorally vital.

Former detective constable and Rochdale rape gang whistleblower Maggie Oliver has criticised the Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham, with whom Oliver herself has worked, for failing to piece together a full picture of the information necessary to combat the rape gangs that still operate in his area.

Despite ordering some preliminary independent reviews into CSE across Manchester, Burnham stands accused of focussing exclusively on the failures of the past.

Commissioned in 2017, [Andy] Burnham's limited independent review concluded that authorities had failed to protect children from paedophile gangs in Manchester, Oldham, and Rochdale. However, no officers were fired or stripped of their pensions for the historic failings exposed. Nor has Burnham exercised his powers as Police and Crime Commissioner – a position he automatically holds as an extension of his Mayoralty – to prosecute any of the officers found to have failed the victims of predatory gangs.

In January 2025, Labour MPs voted en masse against a Conservative amendment calling for a national statutory inquiry into grooming gangs. The amendment was defeated by 364 votes to 111. Sir Keir Starmer and his frontbench abstained or opposed the measure, dismissing public concern as 'far-right' agitation. It took sustained external pressure, including the damning Casey National Audit, this independent inquiry and public outrage, to force a U-turn in June 2025. Even then, the government watered down local inquiries, with reports that plans for five separate reviews were quietly dropped 'to avoid offending Pakistanis'.

This is the same Labour Party that has consistently weaponised accusations of 'Islamophobia' to silence anyone who stated the obvious: that the gangs were and remain overwhelmingly Pakistani Muslim men. As a result, the nation has suffered decades of state-enabled child rape on an industrial scale.

Racism is treating people differently based on their skin colour .

We don't treat people differently based on eye colour or hair colour.

Skin colour should be the same.

Unfortunately things like Closing the gap are inherently racist.
As is DEI.

As they are based on separating people by skin colour they are racist ideas

No.

Racism is a system of oppression, prejudice, and discrimination based on race. It occurs when individuals, organizations, or institutions use their power to treat people unfairly, limit their rights, or restrict opportunities based on their ethnic or cultural background.

Racism now officially includes Religion so to criticise Muslims is now considered to be racist.

That is very sneaky and dishonest, like you. Smuggling 'cultural background' in there.

So now not hiring a tattoed bogan is wacist. Or a nazi, an anarchist, a jihadi or cannibal.

I don’t believe that there is one “definition “ of racism?

A lifetime ago I was in a line waiting to collect water.

When it arrived, as a “ white “ I was sent to the end of the male local line.

The local woman had to wait behind  Myself because all men had too be served before them.

People in Australia would simply have a uncontrollable meltdown if that happened here.

There is no universal understanding of “ racism “ and we shouldn’t pretend that there is?

I stayed in a small village in Sicily and on Sundays a large crowd would assemble in the town square all in support of their soccer team with banners and team colors. The crowd would then walk to a nearby town and cheer on their soccer team. At the end of the match crowds from both sides would face off and anyone that wanted to let out some anger would move to the front of the group. A bit like a pressure relief valve really. Both would then walk home.
