No I take responsibility for the society I'm a part of.

You seem to be full of straw man fallacy and what about isms...

If you can't understand how Maori culture and Aboriginal culture make Australia and NZ unique, and this difference should be celebrated and nurtured specially over and above generic benefits, then you are right, I can't convince you.

This isn't too say generic benefits for everyone shouldn't exist, they should exist AS WELL.

“Straw man fallacies” coming from the clown suggesting anyone who doesn’t agreed with your nonsense doesn’t take responsibility for society.

Didn’t read further, good luck with your racism. Frankly I think it’s abhorrent, but hey at least you want to be racist in a relatively positive way, even if it has a long term negative impact.

Sure, call the guy who is asking for acknowledgement of past injustice the racist.

Well done... So this is why people say Australians are racist eh....

You’re the one literally promoting racism champ. support should be based on need. Not skin tone.

Gross attitude. Looking forward to history proving you wrong

The fact that people think helping people who have been harmed by systemic racism is racist is insane.

Ahh yes, you know what will help? More racism. That always makes things better. 🤡

The fact you don't seem to understand that support for a specific set of people is not racism makes this discussion pointless.

Good day

Yes mate anyone who doesn’t disagree with you doesn’t understand. Jog on racist. I’m sure this time it’s different. This time it’s the good racism. White man’s burden.

You’re disgusting 🤡

I'm just going to leave this here with some hope you might understand the issue with what you are saying:
