ttbn,

Not all racists are haters, and not all haters are racists. Not all racists see themselves as racially motivated. Christian missionaries of times past were ardent racists, but they were not haters, in fact just the opposite, often they were loving and kind in a somewhat misguided way towards those, they believed to be inferior to themselves and other based on race. Simply believing ones race is superior to others, makes one a racists. Its not a matter of disagreement that makes it so, its how the argument is couched that indicates whether one is a true racists or not. In your case you put up misleading superfluous arguments against the Voice and Aboriginal people in general, when I think you know your line is motivated by your racism. Then there is your call for a vote for the openly racist One Nation party, which gives you away as well.

BTW; You don't need to be white to be racists, some coloured and Asian people are racists just like you.

You ask; Has anyone here actually been called a racist, to their faces, and not just by some keyboard coward?

I certainly have been called a racist by keyboard cowards on this Forum. I've also been called a racists by a Maori chap, for simply being white. He then wanted to apologise when he found out I was married to a Maori woman. I told him, one can be racists, marriage dose't prevent that.

p/s; No need to get on your high horse over the word racists. I've been called worse things.

"No need to get on your high horse over the word racists. I've been called worse things".

And deserved it. Don't worry Paul, as long as they don't call you late for lunch.

The Uluru statement is about rent seeking.

The Uluru Statement is not actually Australian: it was ripped from an international piece of jurisprudence written by an African judge about a Saharan country. Second hand - stolen even - and nothing to do with Australia.

Dear Indyvidual,

You flapped your gums with:

"free of colonial rule.
Josephus,
Free of Colonial goods & services also ?"

Mate, half the stuff you buy probably comes from communist China. But you don't give a toss. Why should they?

Dear Josephus,

You still on this band wagon?

Mate, you really are all twisted up with this aren't you.

Tell me what are you afraid of? Is someone going to get something more which might mean you get something less?

You really are a deeply uncharitable character aren't you.

Just chill.

As to language revival:

"The process of Hebrew's return to regular usage is unique; there are no other examples of a natural language without any native speakers subsequently acquiring several million native speakers, and no other examples of a sacred language becoming a national language with millions of "first language" speakers."

Are you going to tell them not to bother or is your racism directed at Australian aborigines?
