Racism against asians in this day and age

Can you believe this? Some guy submits an ad to sell his house, but explicitly prohibits asians from contacting him.

south asians are "dippers"

in any case, from the accent, and more telling, the first line in the video, this is in Australia... as in Highgate, Adelaide, South Australia.

There was a huge backlash in Australia over the immigration of numerous Asians into the country. Even the PM himself got into hot water for his anti-immigration remarks...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Australia_Policy and it even went past 1973 as I remember distinctly that we chose not to go live in Australia in the early 1990s because of all the stories of racism we had heard.

"It is not the bad qualities, but the good qualities of these alien races that make them so dangerous to us. It is their inexhaustible energy, their power of applying themselves to new tasks, their endurance and low standard of living that make them such competitors."

Socialism == protectionism.

There's not enough growth to support their current population, so they become very anti-immigration.

Australia, France, ... all suffer the same problems. We don't see it as much here cause our version of socialism is very close to capitalism and we require immigration for growth to support our lifestyles.

We live in the most clique-y city in Canada, where mocking Asian drivers is common place, and "honger", c'lai" and "surrey girls" might as well be in the dictionary.
