Wait, what's wrong with the message 'it's okay to be white'? Are you suggesting it's not okay to be white, is that now the official line and any deviation from that is racist? 

 

The sentence in and of itself not a problem.

Much like the sentence "Works sets you free". Not a problem with that sentence in isolation either.

The statement is not threatening and is not accompanied by any insignia. I find it very troubling that this is verboten, as it implies the authorities do not consider it 'ok to be white'... 

Do you think white people in Perth suffer discrimination because of their colour?

Whoever put the poster up is either coming from the school of thought of the Daily Stormer, in which case they're racist or 4chan/Milo Yiannopolous, in which case they're a fanny, and either way they shouldn't be humoured. 

That's presumptuous. How can you be certain the person didn't think of this independently, or read it on Twitter and thought it was a good slogan? 

Even if the slogan was dreamt up by a neo-Nazi, it doesn't invalidate it. It is either 'okay to be white' or it's not. Apparently it's not...

Because anyone who would shunt this shite up, or defend it, is barely capable of thought, let alone independent thought.

So you're equating the proclamation that it is 'ok to be white' with Nazi genocide, now?

Probably not. But somebody expressing a mediocre satisfaction level with their racial identity doesn't necessarily indicate anything beyond that.

 

If a white person from Perth does feel they have been discriminated against because of their race does that mean they are evil or should not be able to express their concern?

Seeing as I'm incapable of thought, please explain to me what is wrong with somebody saying 'it's okay to be black/white/Jewish'?

Definition of okay:

adjective
adjective: okay
  1. satisfactory but not especially good.
    "the flight was OK"

No, it means they're trolling. It's like demanding a law that bans teachers from turning pupils gay or Jews from drinking the blood of Christian babies, it postulates a problem that doesn't exist to promote hatred.

Because for every statement there is by inference a question

 

'It's OK to be white' - What if one is not white, is that not OK?

'It's OK to be black' - What if one is not black, is that not OK?

'It's OK to be Jewish' - What if one is not Jewish, is that not OK?

Paul Joseph Watson is racist scum and it's fucking brilliant watching his c**t of a boss getting rinsed thru the courts - Paul Joseph Watson is racist scum and it's fucking brilliant watching his c**t of a boss getting rinsed thru the courts

 

Oh. Huh.

So Black Lives Matter is racist, because what about white lives, or hispanic lives? Okay.

No. You just did.

I didn't explicitly say that. You assumed it from my 2 completely innocent sentences.

Like people are assuming something from that completely innocent sentence It's OK to be white.
