Racism is not necessarily "terrible". and it certainly is not illogical.

The reason why intelligent people associate the amount of melanin in a person's skin with their success in life or their proneness to criminal behaviour, is because anyone not blinded by left wing bigotry can clearly see on the news every night that there is quite obviously a link. Ask any Townsville resident just who the police chase every night.

The idea that racism is absolutely wrong is easy to refute. "Affirmative Action" is a form of racism where certain crime prone races who lefties court as their new electorate get favoured treatment over the more law abiding and successful races, to supposedly correct the idea that the crime prone races are only that way because they are victims of the generally law abiding successful races. Even if that stupid idea was even true, the fact remains that lefties are advocating the idea that racism is OK when they do it because their intentions are good. Either racism is utterly bad or it is not. You can't have it both ways.

And you know what? I think that the lefty leadership is smart enough to know that. But all they want is power and they see that with ever increasing third world immigration into democracies that dividing democratic nations on racial grounds and always taking the side of non white people is the way to gain power through elections. Just look at the USA today with a Alzheimers victim who is a paid Chinese agent now the President. Goodbye Taiwan.

I am not surprised that this author is so crazy that he is actually advocating that the city of Darwin be renamed because Darwin held racist views. If a scientist of the stature of Darwin held racist views then that might stimulate some neuronal activity that perhaps racism is a scientifically valid concept? In any case, this is not the first time a bunch of fundamentalist bigots have suggested that the city of Darwin be renamed. Christian fundamentalist loonies have been carping on about the same thing for years

"Racism is a terrible thing". It is also a terrible obsession in some areas: the media, sporting codes, Leftist social engineers and proponents of identity politics, as well as vandals who tear down monuments to famous people, and nutters who want to change the names of cities.

The race obsessives are just another mob of lunatics trying to tear down Western society.

It's one thing to cease honouring historical figures because of racist actions. But surely doing so because of racist beliefs is overstepping the mark?

Racism, as you say, only belongs to the Left, and not White Nationalists that inhabit some OLO threads...

Yet - we here on Planet Epsilon have always wondered why mainland and Tassie aborigines never adopted the PNG/Indonesian bow and arrow. PNG tribesman, or more certainly Makassar sea-cucumber collecters visiting Northern Australia, would have brought bow-arrow technology. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makassar_people#Contact_with_Australia

Bows-arrows would have made killing kangaroos and emus much easier than the woomera-small spears technology used by aboriginal Earthlings!

LEGO,
Racism is necessarily terrible, as it always leads to injustice. And it is always illogical, as people are individuals.

Racism is absolutely wrong, and you haven't refuted it at all. If affirmative action is racist then it's being done wrong; real affirmative action means looking at the factors which are holding back people from different backgrounds, and taking steps to remedy them.

Your views on the current US President are delusional, but that's hardly surprising; delusional views seem to be the norm for racists.

Following the Coon cheese renaming, white economist, Peter Smith, has called for the re-naming of Cracker Barrel cheese, 'cracker' being a racist slur against poor white folk.
