Why do people think racism works like noise cancelling?
If you’re racist the “other way”, it doesn’t cancel out the initial racism, it just creates more racism.

So, what’s the answer then - woukd it be just declaring there is no racism in NZ and trying to keep everything ‘level’?
The OP is saying there is no racism. I am saying we accept that fact there is deep and intense racism which runs to the core of our culture and that all efforts to ease it have failed. These people have come to the same realisation and decided to go ahead and practice it the same way it was practiced against them.
There is no other choice really. It’s not like people are going to stop being racist tonight and treat everybody fairly. Why even pretend the world is fair.
