The Invisible Discriminator - Australian Anti-Racist commercial - General

The part "Go on, it's only a joke" is really great acting, really spot on.

[QUOTE=RichyZ;45551702]anti-racism means anti-white keep australia australian australia first 2014[/QUOTE] Do white Australians actually think they have any fucking reason that makes them better than the people who are literally the indigenous population of the country their ancestors basically invaded?

One of the girls head towards me and she smells like fucking sewege and tobacco "Hey brus can I spare a gem" Before I even say no she digs her unwashed hands into my fucking packet, pulls out at least 5 of them I say quietly "you stupid cunt" and then they go WHAT WAS THAT I said nothing after because I know they wouldn't start shit when there's people around and CCTV constantly recording, they left me alone but if I dared hit one of them I'd be a racist and a girl basher and a prick Pretty much my only negative experience with the indigenous

[QUOTE=MR-X;45547559]Well for all [b]intensive purposes[/b] for this advert it was. How hard is that to grasp? Of course most people know that there could be a million reasons for such a situation in real life. But this is an advert to make people more aware of racism.[/QUOTE] Intents and purposes. Sorry, but that is really annoying me.

That's very saddening. Good ad.

[QUOTE=Jamsponge;45554734]Do white Australians actually think they have any fucking reason that makes them better than the people who are literally the indigenous population of the country their ancestors basically invaded?[/QUOTE] It depends on the area and the like mostly, and also age, younger Australians tend to not hold beliefs like that so strongly.

I emailed the guys who made this and asked who the "Invisible Discriminator" was played by and they told me it's Jasper Bagg [url]http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0046591/[/url] And LORD BLESS IT he's been in plenty more things.

the internet lied

As long as jokes aren't told with the intention to hurt, but rather humor, I really don't think they should be stopped. Other than that tiny disagreement of mine, this is a fucking great commercial.

Sorry but, Aboriginals just look like Australians with really good tans. If I were to visit Australia I wouldn't care or probably even know who is a minority.

(presuming it's a funny joke) Though I'm not of an ethnicity that's been discriminated against to a large extent so, I don't know.

Can we get Beyond Blue to make commercials like this for the US? That'd be great.

[QUOTE=Lambda 217;45551440]Anthophobian stepped onto the bus and handed over the money for a return ticket. "Have a nice day." said the bus driver, giving him a friendly grin as he handed Anthophobian his change. Anthophobian scowled back at him, pushing his sleeves over his hand to prevent his skin from touching the coins the 'friendly' driver had undoubtedly coated in his own semen when no-one was looking. It was a busy Saturday afternoon, and so the bus was packed. An old man near the middle of the bus noticed Anthophobian and moved his bag off the seat next to him so he could sit down. Anthophobian promptly grabbed a handrail and gave the old man the finger, smirking at how easily he had foiled the attempted rape as the bus began to move. By the time Anthophobian had arrived in the city center, the voices in his head were shrieking like nails on a blackboard. He hurried to the bus door, but to his horror, the man and woman in the front seats moved back out of the aisle to let him out first. [i]"A trap!"[/i] screamed a particularly loud voice Anthophobian had christened 'The BoneWhisperer'. [i]"They've covered the ground outside of the bus door with RapeMines!"[/i] Anthophobian lowered himself to the floor in the fetal position, and didn't stop yelling until the nice men with the coats came to take him back home to, as he called it, The White Pillow Safety Chamber.[/QUOTE] Oh my god that is fucking amazing :v:
