Repealing racial vilification laws would destroy the Australia we know : Comments

By Vic Alhadeff, published 26/5/2014

The proposals give the word “intimidate” an artificially narrow meaning - “to cause fear of physical harm”.

Isn't it time that we got realistic & identify the real racists i.e. the ones who claim to be anti racism ? The ones who keep bleating discrimination whilst getting more hand-outs than any other group ? Give us a break for a while.

There is a sense of desperation from the saviours and purveyors of 'accept multiculturalism or you are a racist'. In my travels around the world one of my most startling observations is that it is only in 'white'dominated (or majority) populations that 'multiculturalism' is seen as something which has to be worked on to make it happen. Spend time in any Asian or African country, notice the mix of races, notice the lack of attention given to the passing parades of ethnicities. Then when accepting these are blended societies take some time to recognise these are also the most racist, intolerant, and blatantly discriminatory societies you have ever seen. Why is Australia so intent on creating a homogenous society to include people who come from places where such situations do not exist. They are confused, we are confused, and the anti-white bigots flourish.

Harry H,
Science recognises and clearly defines race, anyone who says it doesn't exist or doesn't matter is not speaking from a scientific point of view. That's why the Anti Racists don't want the law changed, if the Brandis model succeeds they could find themselves having to testify to their beliefs on race in court and facing cross examination and that would be a disaster for them.

I have heard anatomists deny the validity of the concept in the genus Homo. The argument goes that there is greater genetic (DNA) variation within a nominated racial group or groups then there is between the groups.

Practically, in South Africa at the time of apartheid one sibling could be assigned by the police to one so called racial group and another sibling to another group. This was to my mind manifestly absurd.

Anti Green,
No, you only think you've heard those stories, Anti Racist sociobiologists like Richard Lewontin and Stephen Jay Gould gave us the idea that there's more diversity within groups than between but they did so for ideological reasons, they also blatantly lied about race and anatomy.
See this is why we don't trust Anti Racist activists on issues of race and social cohesion, they lie and omit information to do "what's best", but the side effect is that it's causing divisions among other ethnic groups.
The Anti Racists don't have science on their side however they do recruit people with science degrees to work as actors in their propaganda, the propaganda is then repeated as "facts" in the media, observe:

Of course this "documentary" (from the Smithsonian no less) is laughably bad but it's still quoted as "fact" in the media:

Racist” is a politically correct term invented for the sole purpose of vilification of white people.

As David Stove said, “ "Racism" is a neologism so recent that it was still not in The Oxford English Dictionary as late as 1971. But it swept all before it once it did arrive."

""Racism" is the belief that some human races are inferior to others in certain respects, and that it is sometimes proper to make such differences the basis of our behavior towards people. It is this proposition which is nowadays constantly declared to be false, though everyone knows it is true."
http://libertarianism.livejournal.com/2764353.html

The word "n+gger" is prohibited in OLO posts. A warning appears if it is typed, But no such warning appears if the word "racist" is typed, although it is equally objectionable.
Nevertheless, we should not be subjected to the greater evil of restriction on freedom of speech. That is the politically correct solution, and, of course, it is unacceptable.
