Racism = racism though.
And what you’re calling racism isn’t racism.
You're clearly someone who knows nothing about Pauline Hanson other than that she wants lower immigration.
What policies of One Nation’s are racist?
One Nation themselves are racist. They barely have a policy in the first place, but as individuals they are overwhelmingly racist people.
That’s a pathetic non-answer.
Explain what is racist about one nation.
I do not have the patience to handhold you through all of her many, many dogwhistles throughout her career.
Again with the pathetic non-answer.

Keep going though, calling everyone calling for common sense a racist is working well for you. Support for One Nation is at an all time low.
Wait, did I say low? I meant high. All time high.
Trump is, pretty undeniably, racist against Latin Americans. That didn't stop them from turning out to support him in record numbers. Pauline Hanson is racist. I'm not talking about her policy here nor about effective campaign strategy, just stating the fact that Pauline is racist and by extension so is her party.
One Nation is also extremely incompetent, knowingly hired a convicted rapist, and is deep in the pocket of billionaires.
Still zero evidence of racism provided……..
I won't get into an argument over the specifics of what she's said with someone who will see every racist thing Pauline has said and give her the benefit of the doubt every time. Dogwhistles don't work like that.
Strange, still zero evidence provided to back up your claims of racism 🤔
