@Dalek_Thal @Baku systematically is worse. That means it is accepted as official.
I agree, force of habit for me to dumb it down a bit because a fucktonne of people get really angry when I suggest that this is a deeply racist country, institutionally speaking. Our very laws were written to keep the Indigenous Australians down, the racism is by design.
Not only official, but also normalised within Australian society which makes it very difficult for non-Indigenous Australians to recognise its influence.
