I've countered all your arguments. Your main one seems to be that this was somehow racist when the whole point of it was to counter centuries old, ingrained racism. You are so fundamentally wrong you should be committed. You're either a die hard racist or dumb as fuck, I honestly can't tell to the point that I want to study you. Either way, you don't represent what Australia is supposed to stand for and I suggest you take a long, hard look at yourself if you want to integrate here. Cos if I hear you say this shit in public, I'm gonna call you on it. Not physically, but I will rage and make sure you know exactly how badly the words you say affect people.
It's not racist to help a race that has historically been done wrong by. The whole point was to lift them up to the same level as everyone else, not elevate them to some privileged position. I'm sick of repeating this, stop repeating right wing propoganda that has no basis in reality you racist fuck.
I guess we reach to root of our disparagement. I do not accept racism in any form. You seem accept it as method of fixing old wrong doing. Dixi.
The dictionary disagrees:
racism [ rey-siz-uhm ] noun a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human racial groups determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to dominate others or that a particular racial group is inferior to the others.
Also called in·sti·tu·tion·al rac·ism [in-sti-too-shuh-nl rey-siz-uhm, -tyoo-], struc·tur·al rac·ism [struhk-cher-uhl rey-siz-uhm], sys·tem·ic rac·ism [si-stem-ik rey-siz-uhm] . a policy, system of government, etc., that is associated with or originated in such a doctrine, and that favors members of the dominant racial or ethnic group, or has a neutral effect on their life experiences, while discriminating against or harming members of other groups, ultimately serving to preserve the social status, economic advantage, or political power of the dominant group.
There is nothing racist about making the playing field level. It is racist to want to keep a race below another, which is what you're advocating. So, I say again, you're the only racist one here.
We have different dictionaries. From Webster:
It's neither prejudice or discrimination though, so you've fucked that up too.
Edit: hang the fuck on. This is a link to the Webster definition and it doesn't say that. Stop making shit up.
How it is not discrimination if treatment is different based on race?
Since you love Webster so much (see my edit above): discrimination noun dis·crim·i·na·tion di-ˌskri-mə-ˈnā-shən Synonyms of discrimination 1 a : prejudiced or prejudicial outlook, action, or treatment racial discrimination
Because it's not prejudicial, that's why.
Sorry. if it not prejudicial than it justified. How you justify one race over other?
Oh ffs. How are you not getting that it was to make the races equal because first nations people are well below the rest of us? I've met rocks smarter than you.
So you now claiming that they are inferior than other humans. 😱 So they need help to get to same level? Man, this it pure racism.
No, your English comprehension just sucks. Right now, the playing field isn't level. First nations people are below everyone else in that regard. Do you understand now?
Quoting you.
Yeah, and? Your English sucks. In context, most english speakers could infer what's implied. You can't. That's on you, not me, mate.
I tend to disagree, you are not communicating clearly. As you can't provide anything meaningful and been so useless. I'm done here. And just one last advice. Learn how to communicate, yelling, repeating same shit over and over again and insults does not help you or you cause. Good thing that some other guys step up and provide some useful comments, so I can't just dismiss all "yes" voters as been same as you.
So, I don't speak at a grade 5 level. Again, that's on you, not me. Take some English classes or fuck off.
You have been Ignored.
And yet, here you are, still interacting, you racist.
