It was defined. Just because you swallowed the media bullshit and didn't bother to look into the issue yourself doesn't make you superior. If anything, it makes you inferior. And don't say you did, you've already expressed surprise when someone linked you elsewhere in this thread.

And what unacceptable methods? A fucking panel is unacceptable? Dear fucking Christ, we're not talking about apartheid here, despite what you may think.

How about this, what if we decided that people who immigrate to Australia don't get the right to have equal representation in govt when it comes to matters of immigration? Would you have come here? No, because the system wouldn't be fair for you. That's what happens with our first nations people's. They don't get a fair say in things that effect them. And that's wrong.

No wonder you moved here, were mostly racist, so you fit right in.

Differences is. First nation people has exactly same right as anyone else. They already have representation via normal election.

No. They don't have normal representation via normal election. This has been proven numerous times. Since the Morrison govt. It's the whole reason the voice was proposed. Do you think people just went "I'm bored, let's cause a stir". No. This was based on facts, something you've decided to completely ignore.

From top of my head they are 3.8% of population. So they should be heard for that 3.8%. And about Ignored, I'm not claiming it is wrong, but could you please provide some references.

Thanks for link. But article does not explain why they need voice more than any other minor group. There are many groups which was wrong in the past, why they are not getting voice?

Did you read the whole thing? Cos it certainly covers that. Just because you don't understand it and can't parse out the relevant information doesn't mean I haven't given it to you.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I did. There is nothing there explaining why they need help in any other way than any other disadvantaged group.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Again, your English sucks. The whole article is the reason why. They're not gonna sit there and compare it to every minority group in Australia you giant cockwomble...

So homeless for example do not deserve special voice but aboriginals does? Cut this racist shit, if voice was about helping one who in need it will be total different matter.

It's you who is the racist, mate.
