    watch @JazzTwemlow's masterful dissection of the Outrage Left and then read the twitter pile-on on @murpharoo by a pack of virtue-signalling, leftier-than-thou wankerati and you'll see a perfect illustration of what he referred to.

        This is a lazy take Bernard. Twemlow's piece was a rehash of the tired, discredited idea that calling out racism somehow causes racism (among many other errors), and Murph et al are wrapped up in a beat-the-baddies-with-polite-conversation fantasy only available to the privileged

        I’ve seen a few people contriving to make out that I said calling out racism causes it. That’s not what I said, nor implied.

        Sorry, social media destroys nuance. Replace 'causes' with something like 'strengthens'. You claim The Left contributed to Brexit and the election of Trump, because they galvanize those who feel offended by having their bigotry called out. This is an alt-right talking point.

        ‘Wankerati’? So let me get this straight, white comedians and journos telling POC what ‘real racism’ is to be respected. And those with lived experience and years of scholarship of how race works are wanking around. 👍🏽

        Pointing out to journalists when they fail and suggesting ways to do better is "doing something", even if they, like everyone else, don't enjoy being criticized or having their power threatened.

        Well, this whole exercise has been quite useful in making clear which journalists get fired up to staunchly defend giving proto-fascists a platform and claiming the moral high ground for doing it.

        I realise how little point there is in this statement, but do try and remember Bernard that you are speaking from a place of extraordinary privilege. Imagine being a Chinese Australian and watching the ABC give a platform to Steve Bannon.

        Rather be a so-called virtue signaller than a centrist coward facilitating the broadcast of fascist ideals because we apparently need to 'hear both sides', like we didn't already fight a World War that killed tens of millions over this

        Love when anarchists invoke WW2 as if it was their righteous struggle against fascism, as opposed to a fight between imperial powers over territory. You really think Churchill or Stalin cared about the Holocaust?

        1. I'm not an anarchist 2. I'm well aware that they didn't and imperialism is a fucking cancer however 3. to the people ACTUALLY doing the fighting, and in the minds of the public then and now, that's what it was about.
