"Can't help noticing your a nice middle class white boy....."

Racism. Alive and on display.

Congratulations on your white penis Prompete.

Really though, I can't take seriously anyone who can't tell the difference between 'their' and 'there'.

I'm not a racist, I'm more of a grammar snob.

Another sickening attempt by a right wing race baiter to justify bigotry and intolerance.

Very good article, bringing the usual left-wing knuckle-draggers out from under their rocks.

The 'race industry' aptly describes people like Waleed Aly and others who practise identity politics, and those OLO white Uncle Toms who seem to think it's good to hate their own country and accuse their fellow white Australians of being racist. Don't you traitors know that you look just like the rest of us whiteys (the ones you keep calling racists), and that the non-whites you are trying to curry favour with think we all look the same. They are probably sniggering at you; feeling contempt at the way you denigrate your own kind. When racial problems really hit the fan - as you lefty galahs will ensure they do- the people you are stirring up will not pick you from the rest of us.

What utter rubbish you lefties go on with. Does this bulldust make you feel superior? It certainly makes you look ridiculous.

Goodes is a nasty thuggish bit of work, & I feel sorry for aboriginals that he is considered one of them. After all he is more European than aboriginal. We euros should be ashamed of him, not our reaction to him.

As for his booing being racist, just stop a minute & think of the huge respect & admiration for Mal Meninga.

Compare the 2 responses & it is obvious it is the personal integrity & behaviour that makes one much loved & admired, & the other despised.

This article and several of the comments on it seem to me to demonstrate the merits of Waleed Aly’s take on this issue. It is not being aboriginal per se that gets Adam Goodes booed, but being an aboriginal with the temerity to criticise racism, assert his culture and use the phrase “invasion day”.

There is enough dog-whistling and prejudicial language in this article to reveal the author’s biases – the phrase “race industry”, the resentful references to “a well-paid, widely revered elite athlete”, and the analogy with the “jaundiced” #llridewithyou campaign. All designed to infer that there is no real racism in Australia, while inadverently pointing to the opposite.
