Indeed the "Racist Card" can be very useful at times....a real Joker in fact.

Racist is the most boring, ineffectual word used by the Socialists, who keep using it because a) they don't have any valid arguments, and b) they believe the mainstream media's chant that ‘nobody likes to be called racist’.

Bulldust! Anyone who relies on the mainstream to guide them will believe anything. People with strong beliefs don't cave in because some dope calls them a name. If they are indeed racists, they already know it, and are not going to change their minds; and, if they are not racists, they also know it and are not going to change their minds, opinions, or beliefs.

I can't say that I have heard Albanese throw the insult at anyone. But those who are fond of doing so are just immature people nobody - racist or not - takes any notice of. Most people expect juvenile insults from Socialists.
