Dear Belly,
There is currently - more of an inward-looking mentality among certain Australians. Primarily among voters who are white, male, working class, and older. Especially those from regional and rural areas. We're told by political commentators that these are people who happen to be the ones feeling the most vulnerable in the way "the economic fruit has fallen in a globalised market." In the Scanlon Foundation's Mapping Social Cohesion Report - it consistently found more negative attitudes towards immigration and multi-culturalism among older Australians and from those outside of capital cities. Apparently - according to the report - "There's a lot of fear about the future and this fear drives some kind of self protection and a feeling that it "used to be better" and wanting political leaders to recognise them and their situation and do something about it." It was found - that commentators in the US and Europe have been bandying about a word to describe this political phenomena: Nativism. "It's not a matter of racism (you'll often hear people say you can't be racist against Islam because it's not a race). This form of discrimination isn't along biologically racist or ethnic lines, it's more about intangible concepts such as "culture" and "values." A sense of "looking after your own backyard" first and prioritising those who are "already here." "While the situation in Australia is not identical to those in the UK, Europe, or the US - the common thread between them is a matter of economics, inequality and a slide in the standard of living." We're told that - it would be easy to dismiss these people as racists or backwater hicks. But doing that would be to ignore the underlying problems that pervade Australia and other Western Democracies that are currently contending with right-wing personalities (and the media), tapping into the resentment of foreigners for their own political gains or agendas. It's not going to go away anytime soon. Not while there's political gain to be had and media barons to be supported.

Foxy,
"It's not going to go away anytime soon. Not while there's political gain to be had and media barons to be supported" and people who believe in the Koran as the word of Allah. Posted by Is Mise, Sunday, 16 September 2018 3:53:31 PM

Foxy,
..tapping into the resentment of foreigners for their own political gains or agendas. Rather elaborate beating around the bush looking for loopholes kind of post. Weren't there many Europeans including some Latvians I believe who tapped into such fear to get to Australia ? The 'tapping' you're inferring is nothing more than a callous leftist exploitative term to stir ideological emotions for ideological indoctrination. Those white, older rural working class men are not, repeat not so insipid as to think in those terms. That mentality is in much better company among the pseudo-academic confused sex outfits. Had you ever had to work for your living in the hot/cold wet outdoors like these simpledoms as you'd like to call them were you not bound by your own PC, you would have a better understanding of what it means to prevent losing everything you toiled for just because some ideologists don't have the sense to comprehend what's in the making. The ideologist are in fact pouring petrol onto the fire ! Posted by individual, Sunday, 16 September 2018 4:00:18 PM

tell me why did God make or allow other Gods/faiths
What benefit do we get in praying for his/her help after a tragic event not asking why he/she let it happen, that Ark did it get its animals from then unknown country's like ours by air mail.
Why did you God require your followers to mark their doors so he would not murder their children too?
