On poverty : Comments
By Don Aitkin, published 13/6/2019In our country, and others like them, at election times, and indeed pretty well all the time, poverty is seen as being somehow wrong in principle, and my political party or yours will end it, or at least reduce it.

Could it be that Don holds racists like myself in such contempt that he considers it beneath his dignity to respond?
Or could it be something else? Like maybe Don knows that I am right but he is too scared to come right out and say it?
Don knows what would happen to him if he did that. The Red Guards in his university would go on the rampage and picket his office, disrupt his classes, and hound him out of the university just like that Victorian historian. Or, the university would sack him just like that University of NSW professor who correctly predicted an African crime wave if we imported black Africans as migrants or "refugees." News flash. Today's news informed the public that the State of Victoria is offering a $100,000 dollar reward for "The Laneway Rapist" who's published image clearly shows a black African.
This is how civilizations fail and fall. The people who are supposed to be the champions of free speech become intimidated by the ideological zealots who's bankrupt ideology, like racial equality, depends upon lies and outright intimidation for it's propagation.
Many of us are old enough to remember a time when Asia was just as poor as Africa, South America, and the Middle East today. But the Asians are now either rich, or are becoming richer. Why? Because as a race, Asians are collectively a bit smarter than white Europeans. Being smart, generally speaking, Asians make much better, more productive, and more law abiding immigrants to western countries than people from the Middle East, Africa, or South America. That is the Mammoth in the room. Talking about poverty or crime without considering race or culture is just useless semantics.
Even if it is illegal to say so. In Australia today, it is illegal to tell the truth. Any civilization which thinks that way is doomed to fail when matched against civilizations who are not afraid to face unpleasant truths.
