In Australia one can also be racist when remarking on an Indigenous's lack of motivation.

Dear SAINTS,

Apparently some Australians still want everyone
to be average, as if the best thing you can be
is to fit in.

Dear Individual,

Welcome back.

There's many who lack "motivation" for a variety
of reasons. But it is racist to blame their colour,
ethnicity, et cetera for it I guess. One needs
to look at the roots causes.

Foxy,
Thank you.
Yes, that's how a non-racist would & should see it. However, in the case of the feigned indignation brigade, it is racist to draw attention to a totally un-racist situation as soon as it could involve a so-called coloured person.

To be deliberately spotting comments by one person of another individual not based on race and call it racism indicates the spotter is the racist person. Otherwise this is a case for races to be separated.

the spotter is the racist person.
Josephus,
Spotter is an unsuitable word, racist opportunist is more apt.
As I have stated here many times, if we want to put an end to Racism then we should get the racists to stop bleating discrimination.

And the list goes on.
Foxy,
I know many racists, some of them in public life yet they get paid handsomely from our taxes & carry on with impunity. Some of them are white !
