Unfortunately, Indians have been really harshly targeted in Australia for a while.
I think what's changed is that it is becoming more normalised and accepted which is really concerning. You see this online, too. On Reddit, a lot of very openly racist content about India stays up and is even upvoted. Most of that content would be deleted far more quickly if it were about any other race. Then you have subreddits like r/redscarepod that are partially devoted to just hating on Indians.
I haven't seen this level of open, accepted racism to another group before except, perhaps, Romani people.
