Now the Australians are protesting

[MiddleAgedMusings]

Their main target is Indians.
Indians. Who have come legally - not on boats - but on aeroplanes, with the correct visas, who are students seeking further education in order to train as doctors, nurses, or whatever so that they can give back to Australia - Or they are already trained in a profession that the government has outlined has a shortage.

Australia is absolutely solid to get into with specific qualifications or experience being a mandatory requirement and the financial means to support one self. The whole western world constantly puts Australia on a pedestal for not being a soft touch for immigration. How are these protesters questioning the value of this diaspora's contribution to the Australian economy, and how can anybody deny that it's pure racism?

Australia doesn't have a problem luring white British nurses and doctors to their shores with generous repatriation packages, but an Indian nurse or doctor aren't good enough. Australians don't have a problem with their white teenagers or graduates emigrating to western countries for 10 years before fucking off back to Australia when it's time to settle down, but god forbid anybody does it the other way

Why are you defining racists as white people? That's pretty strange. Most of the most heinous race based violence in recent years has been perpetuated by non white races. Even if 49% of the 50% were say white English then it's a bit strange for UK posters to be talking about how racist Australians are. Or did they just start being racist when they arrived?

Again missing the point. I have no idea if Australians are racist, I know they used to be as I'm old enough to remember the white Australia policies, my point was saying 50% of Australians have a parent born overseas as some sort of proof they aren't racist is useless unless we know where their parents came from and their race.

Sorry if you can't understand that, it's impossible to make it any simpler.

Well I wasn't the one who said it, and if you wanted the source, you could have just asked for it.

The people there are now Australian. If you want you to use that argument, German, French and Italian people became British people who became Australians… 🤷🏼‍♀️

The British government took out loans to pay this money. The loans have only recently been fully paid off a decade or so ago. The British taxpayer footed the bill. I’m hiding this thread now because as far as l’m concerned it’s a litany of what is wrong with the world. Wherever we are from, we are not responsible for the actions of our ancestors. That we have benefited from their actions is undeniable but to be suggesting monetary reparation is the answer 200 years after the event is divisive and unrealistic. The contempt with which some British people view their country is really quite disturbing.
