do your cohorts conceive of americans more as slovenly & crass suburbanites or incoherent people of color from ghettos most dark



I explained to them that the 3 million Americans would be a proportional demographics.

So it’s not really the few black people they are worried about (one even said “yeah Sydney could do with a few more blacks actually”) but the hordes of john-deere-hatted creationists.

My problem is primarily that you as leftists were trying to enforce the hegemony of American cultural history and values

The black people in the video were West Indians and if they got upset I would listen to them but given that we have our own bilateral relationship with them, largely based on a sport that you neither care about nor understand, I resent this cultural imperialism dressed up under the guise of anti-racist outrage.

Besides, who doesn't love fried chicken?

Yeah but the thing was I and most of the other people weren't saying it was the FRIED CHICKEN that was racist. That was probably the least racist part of the commercial...

Seriously lol if you even try to deny that a commercial where a bunch of white Australians made a dude sitting in the middle of a giant crowd of west indian fans as perceived by australians is going to be fundamentally racist

Yes we used to have a white Australia policy of allowing only white people into the country. This was changed and now our cities our vibrantly multi-ethnic.

Racism is still around but isn’t as much of a problem as it used to be, which is why so many non-whites want to come here!

Sharing chicken with people is racist? Cricket is racist?

Like I said if west Indians had a problem then i'd listen to it, but why are you yanks getting so outraged and upset by it. It's like a bunch of Poles getting upset about an add that makes a joke about Serbs, weird.

Yes exactly. I know the little Monroe Doctrine in your head doesn't want us fraternizing with "your" black people in the Caribbean but we have our own form of relationship with them that doesn't involve yanks.

You're just trolling / being intentionally obtuse but I don't see why. Mick from Classic Catches (I do understand cricket you jerk!) is sitting there acting 'civilized' and 'normal,' and he is feeling negative emotions towards black people – who are enjoying unique culture and watching the cricket match in their own way. Mick uses the chicken to assimilate and ‘civilise’ the blacks so they’re more like whites.

Do you think that's why they want to come live there? Or is it economic? I heard multiculturalism was introduced right around when they experienced a labor shortage in the 70s and all the women and poor whites got promoted so Asians could come work in the car factories



ASians have never worked en masses in the car industry, I don't know where you're getting that from. But sure, there were economic and political reasons that we abandoned the white australia policy in the early 70s. A lot bought about by Gough Whitlam, the best PM we ever had until he was fired by the queen.

No he doesn't, he's just a bit annoyed he got put in the Windie's section of the stand because it's harder to cheer on the Aussies from there. And where in the ad does he "civilize" the blacks, honestly the shit you guys read into stuff sometimes.

Cheering for a national team: Racist

And the fact you put "Windies" in square quotes shows you're not qualified to talk about cricket sorry.
