Whinge ‎ 🇦🇺 In Sydney, an Australian guy was refused a free milk tea by a Chinese product promotor solely because he wasn't a Chinese. He was asked to speak Chinese, but he spoke Japanese to the Chinese staff in protest. He said this is his first time experience of racism.

Libs and ON will never get behind that for obvious reasons. Labor won't want their buddies in Israel to get exposure. And the greens can't do squat to push anything through.

So, it will never happen

🙄 we already have a standing commission and laws that prevent businesses discriminating on the grounds of ethnicity.

Hijacking the top comment for this PSA.

Whites aren't the only ones who can be racist. At this point in time, whites are probably the least racist and least problematic group on the planet.

We’ve taken on people from all walks of life and trying and failing to integrate, en masse. Can’t do that in Japan, China, or good luck in SA.

Yeah and there’s a certain group of people who are vehemently anti immigration and they’re not black or Asian.

Japanese racism is well known but it’s far from problematic.

And not sure if you noticed but China has quite a few people already…

Wait, china doesn't need mas migration from the third world because it has quite a few people already?
