Also relevant Ammonite, is that if you add just a little of the wrong stuff to your mix in the pot, you don't get steel, you get junk, or an explosion.

When what goes into the mix is controlled by dreamers, the explosion is not very far off. mix

Dear Hasbeen,

You've got a valid point. However, if you don't add to the mix you may end up with something very bland and boring. As Phillip Adams wrote in an article for The Age - a few years ago:

"It's important to remember Australia before the most recent wave of migration. It was dull, self-satisfied and joylessly confromist. Not simply null and boring, but nullarboring. Not merely mindless, but lobotomised. Of course, the option of multi-culturalism involves taking some considerable risks - but almost every human advance is based on experiment, innovation and adventure."

Yeah Hasbeen

If we all had "coffee coloured" skin.... there'd be less skin cancer.

And maybe it would be bland, Lexi. In fact I agree.

For those who think skin colour indicates character, you have a long way to evolve before you reach the same levels of tolerance exhibited by many animals who co-exist in our homes.

Dear Ammonite,

As I've written previously on this thread - prejudice creates what it fears. Families often live defensively and themselves become highly prejudiced about Australians. The increasing hostility of some of the broader community reinforces this inter-community racism, rather than challenging it. Self-inflicted wounds begin to fester. With the end result being that one volatile part of our community is living in deep alienation, unable to belong, while another volatile part is living back in the irretrievable past with the fantasy of an all-white Australia. We need more education, less fear mongering and, not least greater honesty about the culture of racism that is so damaging to us all.

People on this thread who use the same words repeatedly like - "Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white," compound their ignorance
because the implication is - you're racist if you're white.
We get it. And they think it's a compliment. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

Lexi, Ammonite;
-You're advocating White Genocide as a form of cancer prevention.
-You're advocating white Genocide because, Phillip Adams was bored.
Stop aiming the gun downward at your feet.
From Mein Kampf, chapter six ..yes "him" again, the Nazis were the masters of racial propaganda and he'd advise you thus:

"Particularly in the field of propaganda, placid ęsthetes and blase intellectuals should never be allowed to take the lead. The former would readily transform the impressive character of real propaganda into something suitable only for literary tea parties. As to the second class of people, one must always beware of this pest; for, in consequence of their insensibility to normal impressions, they are constantly seeking new excitements.

Such people grow sick and tired of everything. They always long for change and will always be incapable of putting themselves in the position of picturing the wants of their less callous fellow-creatures in their immediate neighbourhood, let alone trying to understand them. The blase intellectuals are always the first to criticize propaganda, or rather its message, because this appears to them to be outmoded and trivial. They are always looking for something new, always yearning for change; and thus they become the mortal enemies of every effort that may be made to influence the masses in an effective way. The moment the organization and message of a propagandist movement begins to be orientated according to their tastes it becomes incoherent and scattered".

Lexi, Ammonite,
What you may deduce from the above post is that I'm asking you to commit to your views, if you want White people wiped out in this country then say so.
You've posted the views that my race should be subjected to Genocide because we're boring and prone to melanoma...jeez Hitler made more of an effort than that, he made all sorts of claims about Jews but they must have been a hell of a lot more convincing than yours.
So let's have it you two, commit to White genocide, here, in public, in the open.
If you're feeling brave then give me a figure, how many White Children should be born in Australia?
What methods would you like to see used to achieve your ideal figure?

You can sit there and talk the anti Racist talk but people are beginning to wake up to the fact that you're just Anti White.
All your talk of anti Racism is just a cover for anti White views.
You claim to be anti Racist, what you are is anti White, anti Racist is a code word for anti White.
