"The Voice" goes some meaningless way in addressing that, but it is a start.
Aussie, if Aborigines cannot even agree on whether there should be a voice, how are they ever going to be effectively represented by it? Has it ever occurred to you that they might not be some kind of mindless collective, and that treating them as such is actually part of the problem, not the solution?
I am not excluding them from this Referendum. They all get to vote...yes or no. Those that oppose it can vote no. I'll just respond to the wankers who just ignore the important relevance of this thing, people like you.
Quote:Would you support a white voice to parliament, which was appointed by the government and which you had no control over, that told the government what you think, on account of you being white?
Pretty pointless given that most of the MPs are white and none of them had ancestors who 'owned' this Land we occupied by force.
Quote:Those are not principles Aussie, they are meaningless gibberish.
Sure Effendi...just because you said so.
Bleh.
