Can you even imagine what it feels like when someone says something mean to you on the internet?
No, you can’t.
You will never know what that feels like, because you are white, and white people do not have emotions like brown people.
Brown people feel everything so, so deeply, because they are so much more human than whites.
Whites are really just like animals – or more like insects – and do not have human emotions. They will never feel the weight of a mean internet message in the way a person of color feels it.
Mehreen Faruqi has told the federal court she has suffered from insomnia, psychological distress and death threats after a tweet from One Nation’s Pauline Hanson, as the Greens senator pursues a claim under the Racial Discrimination Act.
Faruqi’s lawyers said in a court filing that she was “offended, insulted, humiliated and intimidated” by Hanson’s tweet in 2022, which told the Greens senator to “piss off back to Pakistan” after her comments on the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Faruqi last month launched federal court action against Hanson under the Racial Discrimination Act. Faruqi wants Hanson to make a $150,000 donation to charity and publish a new tweet saying she had used offensive language. The New South Wales senator said she chose to escalate legal action over the September 2022 tweet after a complaint through the Human Rights Commission was terminated.
On 9 September, the day of the Queen’s death, Faruqi tweeted: “I cannot mourn the leader of a racist empire built on stolen lives, land and wealth of colonised peoples.”
Hanson quote-tweeted that post to her own followers, replying: “Your attitude appalls and disgusts me. When you immigrated to Australia you took every advantage of this country. You took citizenship, bought multiple homes, and a job in a parliament. It’s clear you’re not happy, so pack your bags and piss off back to Pakistan.”
The Greens moved a censure motion against Hanson in the Senate, but amendments from Labor and the Coalition leaders saw Hanson’s name and her comments removed from the motion, instead replaced with a general call for respectful debate.
In her own speech on the motion, Hanson refused to retract her tweet and doubled down by saying she would “take [Faruqi] to the airport”.
Faruqi is supported by the Malaysian-born half-Chink lesbian who is Australia’s foreign affairs minister
Faruqi’s concise statement, obtained by Guardian Australia, was filed to the federal court on Tuesday and prepared by Michael Bradley of Marque Lawyers. It accused Hanson of “unlawful offensive behaviour because of race, colour or national or ethnic origin”.
The statement says that people of colour, migrants, Muslim people, people who have experienced racism and person who have been told to “go back to where they came from” or variations of that, had been offended, insulted, humiliated or intimidated by Hanson’s tweet.
The statement goes on to say that Faruqi and members of the stated groups had suffered psychological distress, mental ill health, fear of imminent physical attack, and “hypervigilance, including to the extent of insomnia and lack of enjoyment of home and private life.”
“Further, since and as a result of the Respondent’s tweet, the Applicant [Faruqi] has been subject to a torrent of abusive phone calls, social media posts and hate mail (including death threats, misogynistic and racially and sexually violent content),” the statement said.
“Many of these missives make direct reference to the Respondent’s [Hanson] tweet and reiterate its racist and offensive remarks.”
In one section of the six-page filing, which claimed Hanson had made her remarks for reasons including “the colour of the Applicant’s skin”, Faruqi’s statement accused Hanson of white supremacist views.
“The Respondent has a long and well-documented history of commentary implying that she holds white supremacist views,” the statement said.
“She has made countless hateful remarks over many years about Asian and Muslim people (both ethno-religious groups to which the Applicant belongs) and people of other races and ethno-religious origins.”
We are trying to build a utopia of child trannies and Moslems.
We are never going to reach that point if we continue to allow whites to “simply exist.”
We know who is sending the mean messages, we know who is committing all kinds of hurt feelings.
It’s time we started to consider a final solution to the white problem.
