I'm just intrigued as to what she means by it . Seen a few journalists and their cameraman get hounded by police, sadly. Australians just like saying 'good on ya'. We say it about everything, it's kind of one of those phrases that is just an automatic response. To me it sounded like she was saying 'good on ya for putting up with shitty pale skin that burns when your sister has a nice complexion', but whatever. It's probably why only foreigners are mad about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was a country girl so may not have had the same level of multicultural upbringing as me. Below is the clip I was talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we as a nation fucking Phil's bald head or something? Spineless creeps, shit for brain pigs that are more concerned about a foreign nation that what is happening to their home and compatriots. I guess I spoke too soon, there are protests happening for Aboriginal custody deaths. Good, I'm proud of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I have a warning for racism and why we'd never choose to go live in England. Saying "Good on her" about a twin who is white after also praising a twin who is dark skinned is an absolute non story. If there's any inappropriateness in there at all it's obviously unintended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't an inheritable trait .You, and I everyone on here probably have rapists in our familes as well. So? What does that change? Didn't stop the Cronulla riots from happening in multicultural Sydney. Edited June 7, 2020 by Spike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do believe it's fair to say that someone who grew up in the country may have been less exposed to multiculturalism and therefore may have more of a tendency towards ignorance than people who grew up in urban areas. The comment was at worst racially insensitive. Very different from Cronulla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comment was at worst racially insensitive. Very different from Cronulla I know exactly what you mean but that doesn’t mean I don’t think it is absolute nonsense. Typical thought process of an urbanite, you can’t see past your own biases, and spending a little time in the outback doesn’t change that. I’ve lived through years of people spouting the same argument, ignorance isn’t defined by geographic location or exposure or non-exposure to different culture.
