We all know how many sub-continental and Middle Eastern countries treat foreign dissidents. Mothballs should thank her lucky stars we're sooooo racist.

If someone says they're seeking asylum, they're an asylum seeker.

There's no arguing that fact.

However, it doesn't necessarily mean that they're a refugee.

And, there's no need to question asylum seekers passing through "safe countries".

If I were in their shoes, I'd strive for the best possible outcome too.

Tell me cods, would you rather live in Australia or Indonesia?

True.

I wouldn't call it living.

Australia is meaner, dumber and more racist than it used to be.

It's not meaner, dumber and more racist than a lot of other countries, though.

If you read the OP, you'll see it's a comparison of Australia today, with Australia 25 years ago.

Got it! We need to be dumber, meaner and even more racist.

I have said this many times, but once more for the thick ones.

Australia is not racist.
Even with all the idiots screaming that we are racist, islamaphobes and homophobic, these people still have a better quality of life than in most other countries.

If these people who continually call Australians racist, islamaphobes or homophobic actually travelled the world as saw what true racism, true Homophobic people and people who are Islamic treat others, they would get quite a shock.

Imagine a homo in Afghanistan or other Muslim dominated countries they would have real reason to fear.

Imagine a Christian in a Muslim country or worse still a Jew in these countries, life in constant fear is the norm.

I have seen how blacks are treated in the USA, and for that matter how Mexicans are treated as second class citizens.
The Australian Aboriginals would see true racism if they saw how the American Aboriginals were treated.

Australia, Meaner, Dumber and More Racist............Than what?
Mean.....Because we are continually under attack from every group who see us as an easy mark and call us racist, Islamaphobic and homophobic every chance they get.
What do you expect?
A self fulfilling prophesy, you call us racist often enough we will start to believe it, you call us Ismaphobes and homophobes and we will eventually believe you.
Its stupid and mean.

Dumber...Yes, we are, we allow you intolerant and overly vocal screamers to dictate our own feelings.
You refuse to debate anything, you simply shout and scream that you are always right.
We are not all happy with Islamist's and their backward culture.
We are not all happy being called infidels and being told we are nothing and that we should be beheaded.
We are not all attracted to members of the same sex, for some of us (most of us) it is abhorrent and unnatural.
We are not all responsible for the alleged crimes and treatment of our Aboriginals by our ancestors.

Racist....Not quite yet, but if you keep telling us we are, eventually we will be.

Be careful what you call for, for you may just get it.

Ah.

The good old "We don't do what other countries do, therefore, we're not bad at all" defence.
