The Oxford English Dictionary does not limit the definition of racism as applying only to white against others.

If a black person behaves violently or aggressively towards a white person solely because that person is white, that is racism, regardless of your belief or opinion.

Oxford dictionary? Nice unbiased source there.

Saying you can't be racist against white people is racist in itself.

Of course it's hard to actually care about racism to white people, but it's not a complicated issue. If someone posts a meme that "all white women gently caress dogs" they are being extremely unambiguously racist.

You would need to prove that the british cops were the dogs here though.

Baby you can shout at me,
But you can't need my eyes.
At the risk of something resembling content there's a pretty good case from 2003 regarding a prison guard getting his feelings hurt by being called white by an indigenous women he had just refused to allow to visit her partner in the prison.

Obviously there's an entirely different set of legislation in the UK so who the gently caress knows what those idiots were do. This does however help demonstrate that in law there is a difference between calling someone a stupid white bastard and a stupid black bastard, you stupid white bastards.

The terms alleged were "you white piece of poo poo", "you loving piece of white poo poo" and "gently caress you whites, you're all loving poo poo" so a fair bit stronger than "stupid white bastard".

quote:

I also have no doubt that he was shocked and offended by the language that was used against him within the gatehouse itself and again out on the walkway and driveway leading away from the prison. In my view he was shocked and offended by the strength and vehemence of the swearing that was directed against him. I do not believe that his shock and offence were necessarily transformed or intensified by the addition of the anodyne words "white" or "whites" into the melange of invective that had been directed against him, once he, Mr Farquharson and Ms Power left the gatehouse.

quote:

Obviously the impact of any word must be understood from the context in which it is used. In his evidence, Mr McLeod indicated that he was concerned that in matters of this kind "there was one rule for some and one rule for others". Or in other words some kind of double standard was liable to be imposed by the Correctional Services Authorities in respect of the report he made to them arising from the incident. By this I take it that Mr McLeod believes that if he himself, in his job as a correctional services officer, personally referred to someone such as Ms Power as "black" whilst violently swearing at them and the matter was reported, the authorities would take a very dim view of it. In this regard he is undoubtedly correct.

quote:

In my view the term "white" does not itself encompass a specific race or national or ethnic group. It is too wide a term for that. "White" is of course a colour. The Australian Oxford Dictionary (1999) gives as one of the meanings of "white" the following: "of the human group having light-coloured skin". Using this definition the majority of the Australian population can be described as being "white" and certainly people with "light-coloured skin" constitute the dominant group in Australian public life.

quote:

Using these definitions in the Australian context, being "white" per se is not in my view descriptive of any particular ethnic, national or racial group. Nor is it of itself a term of abuse. White people are the dominant people historically and culturally within Australia. They are not in any sense an oppressed group, whose political and civil rights are under threat.

quote:

It is Mr McLeod's evidence that he was offended, insulted and humiliated by Ms Power's actions on 8 April 2001. Dr Griffin indicated that Mr McLeod was suffering angry mood and a sense of outrage and indignation.

quote:

However the yardstick to reasonableness should not be a particularly susceptible person to being roused or incited, but rather a reasonable and ordinary person and in addition should be a reasonable person with the racial, ethnic or other relevant attributes of the complainant in the matter.

quote:

The question is whether these words are transformed to any significant degree by the addition of the words "white" or "whites" to them. The only transformative consequence that I can see in the use by Ms Power of the words "white" and "whites" is that by their use, she intended to draw attention to what she saw as the power imbalance between herself and Mr McLeod and, in particular, that she thought that the way in which he had exercised his authority over her was unfair.

quote:

I do not think that the evidence reveals that Ms Power was acting out of hatred or contempt for pale-skinned people generally. Her spleen was being vented against Mr McLeod and Mr Farquharson specifically and the decision they had taken in respect of her.

quote:

In the context of this matter, I do not believe that a reasonable correctional services officer with a pale skin would have been offended, insulted, humiliated or intimidated by the addition of the words "white" or "whites" to the abuse used by Ms Power outside the gatehouse of the Yatala Labour Prison on 8 April, 2001. The abuse, although unpleasant and offensive was not significantly transformed by the addition of the words "white" or "whites". These words are not of themselves offensive words or terms of racial vilification. This is particularly so because white or pale skinned people form the majority of the population in Australia.

See this is how it should be, the law recognising the complex truth rather than language and logic being remade to deliver a desirable political outcome.

Not voting yes regardless of reasons means I'm automatically racist? That's an even shittier take. I was asked to change the founding document of my country for the sake of people who despise my country (or worse, outright reject its existence). On what loving planet is that a reasonable request?

Alright, for clarification, when referring to people who “despise this county” do you mean indigenous Australians or just posters on this forum. Because unfortunately I don’t think the government is legislating for the sake of the auspol thread.
