I think that's the kinda question an 8 year old raised by nazis would ask his dad over Tuesday night KFC.

So you share John Smith's view that opposing racism is now a right wing thing? Do you also think the left is naturally racist?

How on earth did you get that from what i said?

I think you wouldn't kinda know shyte from clay.

You're all into identity politics division by race.

The right are far more into identity politics than the left.

And the potential outcomes for the ways in which each group are "into it" vary alarmingly.

Like, your way is genuinely terrifying.

Peter Dutton knows how to read the room.

Do you agree with Dutton refusing to display the Aboriginal and Tores Strait Island flags Freediver....Do you think this act of rejection will bring Australian's together....Feel free to have an opinion???

Huh

I think it is a storm in a teacup. But he is hopefully signalling that he understands a more fundamental shift in public attitude - that we do not support the government treating people differently according to their race. And we are fed up with corrupt, unaccountable, unelected aboriginal "representatives" who, surprise surprise, always seem to line their own pockets and never actually solve anything. At least, that is what I am hoping it signals. I don't really care about the flag itself, and wonder about people who do.

Do you care about the flag Phil?

As I am related to Aboriginal people I accept their place in Australian history....Is it asking too much they are represented by their own flag....If it doesn't matter why is Dutton making it such an issue Freediver....Why should Aboriginal people accept the Australian flag Freediver....Do you think this act will bring Australian's together by rejecting Aboriginal representation Freediver or you just don't give a crap about Aboriginal people who are all corrupt, unaccountable, unelected aboriginal "representatives???

Huh

A piece of cloth would probably do a better than the current bunch of corrupt sycophants. But that is kind of beside the point, don't you think?

Quote:

Yes. The only way to bring the Australian people together is to reject racism on principle.

Do you think the government should be discriminating on the basis of race?

So giving Indiginous people an identity and representation is racism but denying them their own flag is not....How discriminated against do you feel when you see the Aboriginal flag Freediver....Do you feel as though seeing the Aboriginal flag makes you feel isolated....You claim you do not care but feel discriminated against....You are a racist from way back dickhead!!!

Wow. It's like you were born 2 centuries ago. You want to help, but only in the most condescending and racist manner. It is not up to us to give the aboriginal people an identity, especially in the form of a European war signalling device.

Do you think the government should be discriminating on the basis of race?

So you don't believe Aboriginal people have been discriminated against because of their race....Yet you find a piece of cloth so offensive and divisive that it discriminates against you.....You really are a racist arsehole Freediver!!!

Smiley

None of that is what I said Phil. Are you having difficulty understanding the question?

Do you think the government should be discriminating on the basis of race?

Never....The Government supports Communities and programs to better the lives of many Australian's which is not discrimination it is making everyone's life better....When the Government tries to make people assimilate to one culture or belief it is control and stripping away peoples own identity....People are different with different beliefs does that make them racist....Or does refusing to accept any other symbol or belief other than your own make you a racist....Why is the Aboriginal Flag racist and divisive Freediver???

Huh

The symbol is racially/culturally appropriated which is is not part of their belief system you rabbit on about.

Theirs was rock drawings/markings & self marking for war & ceremony.

Keep trying dipstick.

If it means stuff all to you racist arseholes why do you all care so much....Nothing more than race baiting bullshit from the usual suspects....You lot really could'nt be more petty and pathetic if you cried....The Flag hurts my feelings ya smacking low life dickheads!!!

Cool

Of course it's not. Everyone and even the ludicrous few who congratulate this latest shot in the culture wars Dutton is intent on playing knows that.

Dutton's latest is divisive and it's a dog whistle to the rejoicers of the failed Voice.

What really matters though is although this will make a few self-satisfied, maleducated arsehats feels happy, it will be really damaging on the ground ... and will actively hurt a significant number of people.

On the ground.

If you need to ask how, you've clearly not been paying attention.

Huh

I feel very discriminated against when I see the aboriginal flag. That flag symbolises being separate from other Australians. The context is that aboriginal people want to live off non-aboriginal people. But they want to live by their own rules.
