Cool Australia has no racism, that's sick
I didn’t say that. I said the lived collected experience of Asians that I know (partner, workmate, friends) is that they haven’t experienced any direct racism for a decade plus. I’m not saying there’s no racism. Quite obviously there is in many variations, and yes there had been an increase during Covid. But I categorically do not believe that it has escalated like it has in places like the US and UK.
