This sounds a lot like the ‘Yes republic, but not like that’ position of 2000. And here we are 23 years later, and the entire republic debate was dropped.
I believe the same thing will happen with a no vote on this. “We had a whole referendum on this question and the people voted no”.
They should have come up with a better proposal before bringing it to a referendum then. Give me something that meaningfully and permanently provides actual change for indigenous people. Another advisory position is pointless.
Also I believe a huge part of the swing towards the No vote is due to the over the top aggression and abuse that’s thrown at anyone that even dares to question voting yes, being called racists and the like. The communities in here are as guilty of it as any. All that type of activism does is turn people against your cause.
It’s quite funny how you’ve gone from complaining about “perpetually offended progressives” a couple of months ago, to constantly crying about your own hurt feelings in every single thread about the Voice. Also very interesting how this matches up exactly with the Conservative No’s campaign tactics at the moment. Yet once again, we’re expected to believe you’re here to debate in good faith.
Funny how once again a staunch yes voter comes stomping in aggressively telling the no voters they’re just racist etc, literally exactly like I just said 😂 . You couldn’t have proven my point any better.

Where exactly am I crying about my hurt feelings?
