Just like Trump in the US, Pauline Hanson is normalising the targeting of anyine who isn’t from a European background.

    Almost everyone in here missed the point in their hurry to pretend to be outraged and superior, which isn’t surprising.

    The joke is on identity politics and the adherence to stereotypes that its supporters have and justify.

    There’s also the fact that it’s just jokes, no need to have a meltdown.

      Yeah, racism.

      That’s what this kind of joke is, because it’s widely viewed by the public along with similar shit from the same people.

      The only ones oUTraGeD are those who can’t handle their racism being called, criminally charged or attracting consequence.

          Usually everything you write is confected garbage but it was read and understood.

          It’s racism. There’s nothing we miss here, she’s a racist and her comedy is not funny.

            Ok so again, you either didn’t read my comment or don’t have the capacity to understand it.

            It wasn’t a racist joke. Even if it was, it’s just a joke. It can’t hurt you.

            The joke was aimed at IDENTITY POLITICS. It was about SELF ID. It was about how people are self ID-ing into things that they clearly aren’t, and then just act out the stereotypes of the thing they’re self-identifying as and think it actually makes them that thing. These stereotypes are often racist, sexist, etc, but the left overlook and embrace them because of their ideology.

            Do you understand yet?

              Yeah the whole decent part of the nation understands mate. You’re not soecial or even intelligent, you’re just another racist.

              You’re right, it doesn’t hurt me, I’m not indigenous. It hurts her, though. We can see that. Well, most of us can.

              It’s racism and that’s why it’s being treated as such. That shit you’re making up is hilarious to be honest.

                So you think that making a joke about IDENTITY POLITICS and how the people that play along with it are actually the ones performing and pushing harmful, often racist, stereotypes…is racist? And you think I’m racist for pointing out to you that the joke flew completely over your head?

                Did you just miss the entire “I identify as indigenous” bit that the entire joke opened with? Or do you seriously not understand how self ID and identity politics are almost entirely about acting out ridiculous stereotypes while being praised?

                And you got the hide to ask me if I understand lmao

                Because you clearly don’t.

                There’s the programming, straight from the US.

                The US? wtf? lol

                Your head isn’t on straight.
