I believe people should be allowed to say what they want.

Free speech is a human right.

Should you have to pay for it, though?

Take yesterday’s reply to Kamahl from taxpayer-funded ABC journalist, Phillip Adams:

Phillip Adams @PhillipAdams_1

Clearly, Kamahl, he made you an Honorary White. Whereas one of the most towering political figures of the 20th century was deemed unworthy of Bradman’s approval.

Kamahl AM @OfficialKamahl

@PhillipAdams_1 Why do you think Sir Donald Bradman refused to meet Mandela ? Why do you think the greatest ever ‘spotsman’ welcomed me at his home from August 1988 every year, till he left us in 2001? He also left me letters he wrote every year. Why Phillip ? @OfficialKamahl @PhillipAdams_110:47 PM ∙ Dec 26, 2022381Likes53Retweets

Set aside Mr. Adams’ incorrect claim that Sir Donald Bradman deemed Nelson Mandela unworthy. The opposite is true. They were fond of each other. Mandela regarded Bradman as a hero for his 1972 decision to withdraw Australia from playing South Africa. Bradman sent gifts to Mandela. They corresponded.

Instead, after Kamahl’s post regarding his positive first-hand experience of Sir Donald, focus on Mr. Adams’ incendiary reply.

Here’s my question for you, dear reader:

POLL

Was Phillip Adams’ “Honorary White” comment to Kamahl racist?

Yes

100%

No

0%

13 VOTES · POLL CLOSED

If you voted ‘yes’, this raises the issue of whether we as a society should be funding such racism. ABC, and therefore Mr. Adams’ salary, is funded by your taxes, after all.

So, here’s a second question:

POLL

Is it ‘systemic’ or ‘institutional’ racism for ABC to continue to employ Mr. Adams?

Yes

100%

No

0%

11 VOTES · POLL CLOSED

If you answered ‘yes’ here and you call yourself a ‘liberal’, a ‘classical liberal’ or a ‘libertarian’, write to the ABC’s Managing Director and your local MP now. Call for Mr. Adams’ termination.

There is no place for institutional racism in Australia.
