If we all have a valid point of view, do they respect my views as a white nationalist?

Note: White nationalism is not White supremacism

@Gunnabee Giving them money will never help them, in my town I never see an aboriginal working even though they can get a job 10x more easy then anyone of other originals due to the laws that protect them. Reparations has never helped anyone become successful. The government should say sorry, not me. I was born after the aboriginals got there rights back I never accepted any stolen goods.

@DemonAMVs no one is blaming you and guilt is not the answer to anything, but recognising that we all got here to this present time walking very different paths is important to how we all relate. When you know exactly what you did not do you should try and help eradicte present day problems caused by this history. You can't enjoy the white privilidge that this history gives without accepting some responsibility. Its like accepting stolen goods pleading innocence/ ignorance.!

@OceanicMetal What happened to the aboriginals was a gross violation of human rights, that I agree with. What I do not agree with is that I should be held accountable by anyone because of the colour of my skin.

[DemonAMVs]

I don't see why I should be blamed for the atrocities committed against the aboriginals. Was I there? No, was my family there, no. My family was in Germany at the time. The kids that abused and swore at me because I refused to apologise, why? Because I have white skin, is that not racism the very thing this campaign was against? Why should I have to pay for cruel men. We do not execute the murderers son, nor do we imprison the theifs father.

@2459cake - it's about seeing things with different eyes. Every person in the ad is wearing contact lenses of a color different to their normal eyes, mate. It took me a minute to work out why I found the ad so unsettling. Fantastic ad!!!
