 @6f334c2f  It's  fascinating. Australians are happy to be racist, they just don't  want to be called racist. Whenever the issue of Indigenous equality comes up, it's "Don't mention the R word".

"Who, me? Racist? How dare you!"

At least they know it's bad.

But knowing that doesn't alter their behaviour. They've given "racism" such a narrow definition (lynchings?) that they can declare themselves innocent and be blind to the racism being practiced around them.
