Foxy,
I live that racism around me daily, I don't get from some sanitised version in a library. If you think Anglo saxons are racist than you'd better think again.
I see how opportunistic non-anglo saxons play the game & sucking many do-gooders into their disgusting game. Did you realise that many anglo saxons can't write down their experiences because they'd be persecuted by their own race albeit only the ignorant ones.
I have witnessed racism from anglo saxons & non-anglo saxons & I'm not exagerating when I say that I found the anglo saxons to be the lesser racist. There are way too many morons amongst us but they're not as vindictive & deceitful as the non-anglo saxons. The anglo saxons also are the largest providers of aid to those who despise them.

Foxy "you belong in a museum"

So does Utopian Social Engineering.

What turned Europe to rubble, what your family fled from.

I wonder how many will flee this country when your impossible, absurd mix-6000-cultures-together-and-cross-your-fingers experiment blows up in our face.

Dear Individual,

The information that I've provided came from a
variety of sources, including government
documented records of that time, and not only
as you infer "sanitised versions in the library."
They also came from people who lived and experienced
those times.

The following link provides some thoughts for you
on multiculturalism and racism:

No Foxy, you completely disregard opposing argument and evidence. You are not about facts and balance at all. It is always a parallel 'discussion' where you broken-record, regurgitating the same old, same old that has been questioned, thoroughly dealt with and dispelled on numerous previous occasions.

The source you just quoted is an example of how you trawl for anything that could even vaguely be construed as supporting your prejudiced world view.

Sallis,"This is not a lecture such as a scholar would give. It is a lecture a novelist would give - that is to say, it is opinion, impression, invention and speculation."

As I said earlier in this thread, it is over sixty-five years since that photo I supplied was taken, with the Lithuanian migrants bestowing a gift and their heartfelt thanks on Arthur Caldwell for Australia's generosity in offering them sanctuary.

In all of the years you have been pursuing victimhood as a girl child of migrants who never sought it themselves you have yet to examine the status of industry, living conditions and the economy, at the conclusion of WW2. You are about advocacy for your own interests, to accord with your own world view, not balance.

otb,

Those Lithuanians with Mr Caldwell that appeared
in the news-media of the day - had not as yet
encountered any Australians - that came much later.
They hadn't even gotten of the boat yet.

It was the political tactic of the day - to present
Lithuanians as "favourable people" to the locals.
To win support for future immigrants. Up to that time
the country was totally isolated and against any other
immigrants other than British. Lithuanian immigrants
encountered prejudices from the very first days of their
arrival - as Dr Sallis and many others confirm and have
testified.
As do the documented historical government records.
By which I stand.

One other thing - I suggest that if you want to be
taken seriously -
that you get rid of the monkeys and biases that you carry around
with you. At present you are in no position to offer anything
to anybody. Your own bias makes a mockery of reasoned
discussion on this forum. It is very revealing what you
continue to post - despite all the evidence that has been
presented.

Foxy, "Those Lithuanians with Mr Caldwell that appeared in the news-media of the day - had not as yet encountered any Australians - that came much later. They hadn't even gotten of the boat yet.

It was 1947.

Garbage! You are stirring. None of them ever claimed the ill-treatment or discrimination you are claiming. You are (ill-)informed by your own sense of entitlement as the girl child of migrants. It is the bigotry you are forever accusing others of having. From your own account you have done very well indeed out of Australia. What do you hope to gain by your disrespect of Australians and the migrants too?
