As we know, the most useful and responsible thing to do whenever somebody makes a stupid, inflammatory statement is to look to the ethnicity, nationality and/or religion of the perpetrator and then ask "where oh where are the Community Leaders condemning this dangerous rhetoric?"

Columnists, politicians and very, very clever people on social media are all united in recognising the need for Community Representatives to weigh in on all dumb statements made by other individuals, regardless of whether they are indeed representative, or if there's actually an unambiguous community for them to represent.

However, commentators have no time for such irrelevant details. "Why are representatives of the community not speaking out against this?" they rhetorically ask. "Could it be that they tacitly agree with these dangerous and incendiary claims? Has political correctness gone, in some way, mad?"

And like pretty much all of our nation's columnists, politicians and Twitter-babies, I am a Caucasian Australian. Therefore it is clear that I am very-literally-entitled to speak on behalf of every single other Caucasian Australian as a Community Representative.
