bilby commented on the word whitebread
"The real Shire must be getting sick of parodies, which began 20 years ago with the ABC documentary Sylvania Waters and reached a height of communal defamation after the Cronulla riots in 2005. At that time the people of the Shire were wrongly caricatured as racist, insular and whitebread by a news media too lazy to get the real story, which was that the people of the Shire were right to be angry about the systematic sexual harassment of young women at Cronulla beach, which had been going on for years while the police did nothing."
