3. As an Australian, I resent the crass generalisation...
that we're all racists. Racism in Australia is no different to racism in America. It is something that is perpetuated and stirred up by media and government through fear based propaganda. Surely you'd resent the implication that all Americans are racists, simply because it isn't true. DU is proof of that.

Racism is not an inherent trait, its one borne, perpetuated and manipulated by government for their own nefarious purposes.
