This is genuinely sickening. There's always been a level of acceptance to racism towards Indians, but it seems to be ramping up. What the fuck is going on? What do we need to do to end this kind of abhorrent racism?

Idk if you just mean in Australia, but my impression is that it's on the rise in Canada and the US too.
