  • John Newman deserved to die .

  • @HyperPunishment What Type of Fuck WIt are you Mate? I knew John Newman and he was a great man. What have you ever done in your life? Sitting on your Fucking Fat arse hiding Behind a computer screen trying to be tough? Fucking little Bitch!!!!!

  • @cnastevens he's racist , thats what he is .

  • Got to give the Viets credit though, all the shit they went through in the early years, the violence, gangs, bullshit from ppl like pauline hanson e.t.c The very fact they broke through the stereotype just goes to show.

  • @Bhouncer and ultimately it was all the french fault

  • Most refugees or immigrants to australia have been demonised in one way or another, the Irish are a prime example. As for wanting to newcomers to assimilate and integrate those terms were used by the govt in the 60's to make aboriginals give up their history and culture. If they didn't they ended up on the fringes of society.

  • haha nice argument guys

    XD

  • showlink, u gonna end up like John Newman buddy.

  • Malcolm Fraser should be ashamed of what he did and continues to do. He still advocates for high uncontrolled migration even after the results have clearly been seen.

  • These people make me sick whinging about their lot when they arrived in Australia. Boo Hoo having to work two jobs heaps of Australians were doing it at the same time. Excuses always from these people. If you have 8 kids you can't support that is the parents fault not the country that gave you refuge. Losers.

  • @showlink I know this is going to be difficult for you but try to put everything in perspective and be mature for once. White Australians at the time didn't feel ostracised in an entirely new country, they weren't traumatised by their experiences in the Vietnam War and the god awful refugee camps... "gave you refuge" doesn't mean acceptance, you know. Some of the Asians who came may have not turned out in the best way but you're generalising and it's real offensive.

  • @superrrtard Just because my opinions don't coincide with yours doesn't make me immature. Ridiculous comment re: white Australians. They are in Australia. Secondly not all Australians who disagree with you are "white" or "anglo". If a person doesn't feel accepted then they have a choice to leave. People who choose to move to a foreign country whether it be you, me or anyone else need to be the ones that fit in and governments need to recognise and concur with the wishes of its own..

  • @showlink Have you even considered the fact that not everyone fled here by choice? US/Australian intervention in the Vietnamese War escalated it to a point where people left nothing behind when they fled the country. I use the general term "white" not because i assume (like you do so well) that everyone who disagrees is white but because it is associated with the discriminatory attitude of the 1950s/60s. Australians today are generally more tolerant and recognise the value of multculturalism.

  • @superrrtard Yeah I kind of think they should have all gone to America.

  • @showlink Why is that? because you think your vision of an Australia without Vietnamese immigrants is perfect and superior to the society we have progressed to today? I really don't want to your level but... BIGOTBIGOTBIGOTBIGOTBIGOT.

  • @superrrtard So you answer with a question. Seeing as you ask I don't think the arrival of the Vietnamese has contributed significantly. You may feel differently.

  • @showlink nice way of showing multiculturalism, jackass. And if you didn't realise, it was harder for them during those times because they were being stigmatised as unclean, lawbreaking ruffians who were apart of 'gangs' when that was only a minority. Although the 80-90s was considered more culturally diverse than further into the past, some people were still reluctant to accept other cultures & easily reverted to a bigoted POV when something doesnt turn out alright. Much like what your doing.

  • @elainetransformed "Multiculturalism" is a failed government theory Elaine but thanks for the little story you put together to justify their behaviour. Now please get out a dictionary and look up the word "bigot".

  • @showlink Clearly even if i do get out a dictionary, bigotry would have you in its definition if your rebuttals are simply to denigrate multiculturalism and a rich race that has allowed Australia to experience such diversity. It upsets me to see that you're so strongly again migration. Perhaps it because you havent experienced the difficulties in life that they have because if you did, you'd proceed to this topic with more maturity.

  • @elainetransformed Are you fresh off a boat Elaine? Have you experienced their situation. We can all empathise with certain situations but that doesn't mean we can solve the world's ills. By the way the world "multiculturalism" which you favour so much actually includes the fact that people live peacefully within the culture they move to.

  • @showlink "Multiculturalism" may not seem perfectly applicable to Australia today but it would take a seriously narrow-minded person to fail to recognise how far we have progressed as a society. Look up the rise in interracial marriages and go to different cultural celebrations to see how people take interest and respect other customs and traditions.

  • @superrrtard Maybe you might like to enlighten me as to what exactly "multiculturalism" means for the majority in this country. Australia has always been "multiracial". Multiculturalism doesn't exist in non-western countries.

  • @showlink I personally don't think theres a need to distinguish between multicultural and multiracial here but if you insist, I think multiculturalism is simply a policy whereby people accept and try to understand cultural differences maybe even take part. It may not specifically be what it is defined as but that's the view most people share today.

  • @superrrtard No multiculturalism has resulted in people not integrating into the societies they move into. Do you think if you move to for eg. Iran or China these policies exist. It's led to nothing but separation. It has also resulted in government funding being squandered on all sorts of "multicultural" b/s at the expense of real issues & worst of all is an attempt at silencing debate on all sorts of issues from national security, immigration, enviro concerns bcs we have to be pc

  • @showlink People don't need to completely conform to the society in which they move to. There is value in the differences as it leads to the introduction of new things and possible enrichment. Also, Iran and China don't have a multicultural society/policy as we have in Australia probably because in comparison, not many of other racial background immigrate to those countries.

  • @superrrtard No of course people don't need to completely conform but when a person moves to another country they make that choice and their cultural diversity needs to take a backseat. If the cultural diversity starts to impact negatively in anyway on that society then I think people have a right to speak out. Australia didn't have a m/c policy until recently either and things were working fine. Yes there is value gained from differences but those differences don't necessarily..

  • @showlink ... I don't see how being respectful of others and politically correct links to environment concerns and national security.  Also, maybe i exaggerate when i say how far we have progressed as a society but that's only because I consider myself Australian first and foremost and I'm proud of my country.

  • @superrrtard Interracial marriages were occurring way before the imposition of multiculturalism and here you are again talking as if you have carried this country forward. It is only when things aren't working you need such ridiculous policies. Have a look what is happening in Europe - big mistake.

  • @showlink Clarifications:1) interracial marriages have risen since the arrival of Indochinese boat people. 2) I don't see where I made it seem as though the asian community "carried this country forward" Obviously I believe that we have contributed to it (as has everyone else) or i wouldn't be wasting my time here arguing with you when it's obvious we're both stubborn with our opinions.

  • @superrrtard Interracial marriages between old or pasty men and asian women maybe but as for Australian women and asian men I think they are few and far between. You say it yourself when you speak of this country as if what was here prior to your arrival needed improving upon like when you say how far we have progressed as a society. This country was already set up before the arrival of the Vietnamese. The Vietnamese rowed in and straight on to support.
