Yassmin Abdel-Magied and Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young have hit out after learning they were subjects of racist and offensive posters in New South Wales.

NSW police is investigating the posters, which also call for Gold Logie winner Waleed Aly to be deported.

They are designed to resemble Pokemon cards, and include crude adaptations of the catchphrase: “Gotta catch & deport ’em all”.

Abdel-Magied, who last week described herself as “the most publicly hated Muslim in Australia”, told The New Daily the offensive material reflected Australia’s “racist attitudes”.

“We often hear denial about Australia’s racism, most often from those who benefit from their privilege going unchallenged,” she said.

“This kind of racism isn’t ‘fringe’ or ‘a couple of bad apples’. It isn’t just a few people ‘having a lark’.

“These reflect racist attitudes that are pervasive, deeply embedded and structural.

“It’s reflective of a society where right wing politicians have spent years trying to lower the bar for racist attacks and dismantle racial discrimination legislation.

“These posters are symptoms of the systemic racism that we have to face up to, call out and challenge. Further, this work cannot be left only to members of marginalised groups, as they pay the highest price.”

Senator Hanson-Young told The New Daily that the people behind the posters were “dangerous” but that she would not be stopped from doing her job.

“People who incite violence and try to pass it off as free speech are dangerous to all of us and our trust in a fair, decent and democratic society,” she said.

“Rest assured, attacks such as these will not stop me from doing my job and standing up for a more compassionate and fair Australia.”

Senator Hanson-Young was dubbed as a “traitor” on the posters, which claimed she planned to “destroy Australia by promoting self-hatred and open borders”.

The offensive posters describe Aly as “charming yet insidious” and Abdel-Magied a “nuisance feminist”.

Other phrases used to describe Abdel-Magied were particularly offensive and The New Daily has chosen not to publish them.

Credit for the hate-filled cards has been taken by “Aussie pride” group, Aussie Nationalists.

They were allegedly first spotted in Petersham, in Sydney’s inner-west, last week.

Asians and the so-called Apex gang were also targeted.

Anyone with information which could assist police with their investigation should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
