    You idiots have the same repeated talking points and they are just plain wrong.

    In late 2023, Australians will have their say in a referendum on whether to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia in the Constitution through an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice.

    Not just one group, but two. And they are not racial you fuckwit, they are geographical and historical groupings.

    Cultures have value and our First Nations are owed a debt. We live on their lands, we benefit from their experience. We owe them so much and this is just a vote for First Nations to be formally represented in parliament.

          I don’t represent anything except the desire to maintain democracy and egalitarianism

            No, what you represent is casual racism and selfishness draped in the auspices of egalitarianism which distorts the true nature of democracy.

            You obsess over words like race because you’re a racist. It’s really that simple.

              "You obsess over words like race because you’re a racist. "

              Its not me making the law here for one special separate group of people with their own distinct genetics
