Reflections on a multicultural nation : Comments

By Andrew Jakubowicz, published 15/11/2006

The energy directed against multiculturalism has been truly evil, for it has been advancing an agenda of superiority, while disregarding the consequences.

Gee Brain Drain, how do you expect me to cover all that in 350 words?

There are clearly many underlying assumptions/myths/ uninformed BS in your questions that would take me more than the wordage I have here to deconstruct and unpack just for your benefit.So I won't . Sorry.

I've addressed white privilidge and racism many times here in this discussion. If I didn't provide some historical context to these points I apologise.

But lets just start with one fundamental fact. We did not cede nor has it been declared that this nation was conquered. We have been gainfully fighting for a treaty for over 200 years.

Canada, New Zealand and the USA have all entered in treaties with its first nations people.

We are NOT immigrants. We are not 'ethnic' people. Is over 40 000 years enough time for us to declare ourselves 'the first ever Australians'?

I think it is. We have much in common with the Irish republicans for political and civils rights.

Being a "pom' I thought you would know something about the illegal occupation and invasion this continent. Apparently not.

Why not some basic research and then get back to me with modified questions. I know your intentions are good, but you really don't know what you don't know.

That said: here is one link to some basic reading:

cheers

“If you cannot even understand the Muslim concept of Halal and make any attempt to even spell it, let alone appreciate someone's reason for following it, that just shows us all how ignorant you are and how little your opinion on this issue actually counts”

May I dissect this statement.

“If you cannot understand the Muslim concept of Halal and make any attempt to even spell it, let alone appreciate someone’s reason for following it”
I could understand it, only in a religious sense, if I tried, if I wanted to! Why would I want to understand this bizarre religious persuasion to only eat a certain meet killed in a certain way. You do understand Voodoo right? You braindrain need to touch up on it. When was the last time you indulged in a bit of Voodoo? If you do not understand voodoo any more then I understand Australian cattle killed in queer Muslim religious ways then you have my problem. What is this problem you ask? Just a fundamental clash of cultures and lifestyles sure to cause many future implosions in many parts of Australia.

I really do think you need to touch up on killing chickens and smearing their blood on you (voodoo). just as much as I need to touch up on swinging a cow around to face a certain direction, at a certain time, feeding this, that and the other, but making sure that he does not eat this, REPEAT this cow can NOT eat this, in the name of Allah do not feed this cow!.... infact the chicken blood smearing makes more sense to me, then making Australian cattle become unwilling participants in perverse religious rituals.You-need-to-understand-the-concept-behind-slitting-a-chickens-throat-and-smearings-its-blood-on-you(multi-culti-enlightenment)

I draw note to a comment in my prev post, little girl in big dog add no longer goes to her bed and prays. I’m guessing some (or many) Muslims made a complaint and slyly removed a small piece of my culture, as if splinter falling from a fence, only problem is this fence is a patch work job held by sticky tape.

Unrelated point now, Boaz you should have broke the sign on her.

Back to it.

You have been one of the biggest pushers of multi-culti policy of many of the posters. Did you click on the links above by me? Native British exodus from Britain (poor natives), not one law for all (oh ooohhh tribal laws being enforced). Could I make the assumption, multiculturalism equals mass exodus of natives and splits a nation into tribes with tribal laws.

Australia is multicultural? A big piece of land and a lot of cultures in it. The earth too is multicultural, a big planet and a lot of cultures in it. just a sarcastic point now, no major wars have ever been fought in this multicultural planet, and no wars have been fought over race, culture or religion which coincidently have been thrown into a pot together, to get the mass benefits of diversity out (Chinese food), I like the risk:)

Multiculturalism definitely isn’t for people or a nation that wants stability. The British & Swede’s & (most of Europe actually). The Exodus of hundreds of thousands (million) odd British really equates to a people fleeing multi-culturalism, your great policy that leads to......

“Native British inhabitants fleeing their ancestral homelands”-Future London times heading.
“Ethnically British people now make up just 26% of British population”-Future London Times heading.
“-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-“ooh the humanity (Genocide of natives) self inflicted by teaching the youth wrongly.

though I predict some type of all white area, several probably, that white people and only white British will live in, bit like Arnhem land here for those anti multiculturalists natives and their old world view, remembering a time when the country was all black(never was many Indonesians arrived by boats(introduced dingoes for proof))

White people are native? Have homelands? We need to drop these racist attitudes aimed at Europeans as colonists, invaders, slave traders and come to the obvious realization that white people are native in Europe (England) and have homelands. And do not just exist to create diverse perverse multi-cultural havens for third worlders. Got allot more not-enough-room-4-now

Obviously,
Is Islam the only bizarre religious persuasion? Which isn't? Does fish on Fridays and fasting through Lent make any sense to you?

The only cause of "a fundamental clash of cultures and lifestyles sure to cause many future implosions in many parts of Australia" would be sheer ignorance, from either side. We only fear what we don't understand. Make an effort. You can do a lot better than "guessing Muslims made a complaint and slyly removed a small piece of my culture", surely.

Regarding your links to what's happening in England, two points.

1. This isn't England.
2. "under English law people may devise their own way to settle a dispute before an agreed third party." It sounds sensible to reduce the workload of civil courts. You could always move to England, just so you could leave again.

obviously, white people are only 20% of the worlds population, not the 80-90% you imagine it to be.
