So much gumpf?
For you perhaps.
For the rest of us - No!
Not all people who come to Australia complain about their
treatment for a multitude of reasons. And the numbers that
we do have are relatively small compared to the reality of
what really goes on and has been for decades.
The "Family Stream" programs help people to survive
discrimination. When people have family members to lean on
for strength and understanding and support it becomes far
easier to cope. Their own communities also help greatly and
give them the needed support.
Some groups also experience racism at higher rates. Especially
those those with culturally diverse backgrounds, different
religions, skin-colours, and so on.
They often have to deal with systematic forms of discrimination.
Such experiences do limit the access that members of these
groups enjoy to opportunities and resources that are offered
to many people from Anglo-Australian backgrounds.
I have worked with various migrant groups and know of their
many experiences. In particular of those who have arrived
recently. Media reports and commentary that use negative
stereotypes about refugees and migrants don't help. They can
fuel prejudice against these groups in the wider community.

yuyutsu,
What you do or don't do or what you say - is no longer of any
interest to me. I consider you an extremist. And I shall not
be either responding to or reading your nonsense.
