Comments by "James" (@James-kv6kb) on "ABC News In-depth" channel.

There are two questions being ask do we want these people recognised in the constitution and the second is do we want to give them a voice. So is that basically suggesting that all the Aboriginal government ministers have been useless in the past and maybe they should give back all the money they wasted when they haven't actually done anything? And what is it that you're actually going to do that you haven't tried in the past ?other than giving them a voice that's going to stop the human atrocities happening every day in Australia? Now for a long time we've had a big problem of committee members that are constantly offended about things so they don't actually have to do any real work in the community . They refused to have the full bloods on the panel because they know that they will start asking questions and again there are no full blood elders on this committee and we're going to get exactly the same as what we've had in the past, A trillion dollars in funding and we're still trying to work out what's not offensive when we address them but nothing else has changed and no constitutional alteration will change that

Sadly due to the internet there's a lot of incredibly stupid people out there now and a lot of people support him it is really bloody scary.
8
It is broke we're just voting not to make the damage worse.
7
I think if it was should Aboriginal people be recognised in the constitution we would all vote yes it's just that they're taking on this extra thing about employing more committee members who has history of being completely useless
7
A bit like Homer Simpson when Marge arrested him. you have the right to remain silent and Homer says I wish to waive that right and starts screaming
6
All my comments have been removed because I suggested the full blood Aboriginal people should have a voice and no one else

@matbon9614 oh my god how many times have we heard that one . I am not saying that people of mixed blood shouldn't be involved, especially when a lot of places don't have full bloods anymore like the eastern states. I am saying that the full bloods that still exist are part of the community as well and they're the ones The voice is supposed to be about but it won't be about them it'll be about the interpretation of the mixed-blood people that think they represent the people in the bush who don't even know who they are
4
They're not a special case
4
Yes = people ignoring the traditional elders so they can have government jobs great idea that hasn't worked in the past and it won't work the future . Are we suggesting the traditional elders are not intelligent enough to speak for themselves ?
4
All that good work they did back then and now they're granddaughter's are pretending to be victims again because it's trendy to be a victim now
3
Well it was the last intelligent generation on earth everybody acts like five year olds now
3
Public anxiety what a load of crap do you job that you get paid for you're not there to be liked or to be given anything else other than a paycheck and it's time people realised that. There's been a lot worse jobs in history than what you've described
3
That's because you people understand that not everybody can have the best job and you get out there and work very hard every day. young Australians that refuse to do that
3
Nothing like the 70s or 80s we didn't have the entire world obsessed with Google, kids being told there so bloody amazing that they think it's beneath them to work and buying Chinese goods and acting like children which is why we don't have any people filling these roles because they're too busy playing with Chinese toys and going on tictok
3
Nothing Australians want more than to see the indigenous people living a civilised lifestyle. Unfortunately you have a lot of people that don't even go to these communities and the people out there have never heard of ,stealing all the money and having useless committee meetings about what offends them so they don't actually have to do any work . In the last 40 years we've given a trillion-dollars in funding and we've got absolutely no where so why should we keep going down the same road where we just pouring money into useless committees that won't even allow full bloods on the committee because they're scared of what they'll say in terms of sharing the money. All these young people saying vote yes have no idea how corrupt the system has been and will continue to be
3
@LeGronk I do actually know what the elder's want and that's for the human atrocities to stop but that's not going to happen if no one is allowed to hear from them. Now I suggest you stop attacking people when you're not actually aware of what they're trying to say
3
@spidermoth1170 Because to a teenager that would be a fate worse than death lol the problem is we keep trying to fix problems with the old solutions that don't work, time to think outside the square stop Google from inciting the violence and make the kids understand that they are going to be punished
3
If I was a judge I would say to these kids ok for 12 months you have to wear Kmart clothes and if you're caught wearing anything with a brand name you're going straight to jail for 12 months youth crime would drop drastically
3
 @MrBibi86 it means everything is shit in America I thought that was obvious
2
@CatsandJP yes we have a major problem with Google telling parents that they should be entertaining themselves and playing with toys and doing all this sort of thing as opposed to raising their families they've even come up with cute little terms like adulting to make people think they're doing something special by raising their families. Get back to families being together get rid of the American influence and we may have a chance but not while we have American companies asking children to commit crimes to put on line so they can make money

GOD SAVE THE KING

Who no longer exist because the animal rights organisations lied in court had the circus closed down but despite being busted for doing this the show was not able to return after 150 years of tradition
2
@damonturnbull5903 actually intelligent people use however 🤣
2
@damonturnbull5903 this is exactly what I mean because I say that I like some of her policies I must be racist obviously you don't know all of her policies
2
No now we have China tonight or some crap
2
@Zei33 No what I'm saying is not to act like Americans and actually show some interest in the people that are running your lives as opposed to not taking any interest and being upset when they do something you don't like . People used to get up at 7 in the morning working in factory all day looking after the house on the weekend and still had time to work out which politician they liked
2
Sadly with this we must have an identity group this sort of thing is going to continue . Which is exactly what Google wants, people arguing amongst themselves and not looking at what's actually going on
2
@ryzeup5654 because prior to the eighties women were treated like second-class citizens all over world. many great female activists changed that with all their work by the time the 80s rolled around there was complete equality with both men and women and my point is there is no disadvantage anymore they are pretending there is disadvantage to get a attention for a cause that was solved 40 years ago. Women today are not at a disadvantage in fact it is completely the opposite men are the ones now that don't have any rights and are not allowed to have any say in society if you're a woman you can get a job anywhere please tell me why you are at a disadvantage what is it that you actually want I don't see any problem you're just pretending to be victims so that you can get extra jobs extra funding all this sort of thing it is a big scam
2
It may actually help if small business can advertise and could employ people which we can't anymore because of bloody Google . Advertising is so difficult now that people are giving up and they're not employing young people and you have kids that think they're s*** doesn't stink so they won't actually go and get educated or learn a trade . Also the Yanks are convincing everybody that it should be 24-hour play time so it really is difficult
2
Nothing to do with an ageing society it's got to do with young people being told how amazing they are by their parents so they think working or getting an education is beneath them
2
It is so very simple we've told the kids that they're so amazing that they don't actually want to work or get educated and when their entire life is Google telling them just a play all day there is absolutely no hope
2
Do you know what bipartisan means ?
2
@alelectric2767 now I grew up in the 70s and went to school in the 70s which is vastly different to now so what is your interpretation of being abused by teachers? Do you mean sexually assaulted which was very common back then or they verbally attacked you . Anyway it doesn't matter what happened that doesn't give you any excuse to act like an animal
2
@davidpearn5925 now don't you look silly ? you use big words but you don't know what they mean 😂
2
@davidpearn5925 mutual agreement, bipartisan support both parties agree
2
@steveremington I love the way people on the eastern states or around the coast seem to think that they've all been wiped out when nothing could be further from the truth. Where I live in South Australia there is plenty of full bloods. And a lot of their relatives volunteered to come to the stations because life was so much easier
2
No one can do anything about the issue it doesn't matter how much money you throw at I or how many ministers you have we're going to be exactly the same spot in two years' time but with more committee members being paid government money instead of a going to the bush
2
@leemackie8434 it is actually about the full bloods because the white people pretending to be aboriginal want to sit on all the committees and soak up all the funding in the city and pretend these people don't exist and that's why we're having these issues in Alice Springs . The whole reason why it's racist to say full blood is because the white ones don't want that subject bought up but 40 years later and a trillion-dollars in money and we still have the same stuff going on because the money is not getting to the community's it's being spent on cultural days and these bloody committees that want to change the name every couple of years so they have to have hours of committee meetings and not actually do any real work and solve the issues. And the full bloods are the ones saying they're sick to death of this. There was a story of a traditional elder that went to the committees and said you're not giving any money to the community you're spending it on yourself I want something done about this. That night they sent people round to bash this poor old man and tell him to keep his mouth shut . It's a very complex situation but if we're just going to allow part aboriginal people to be the voice we are only going to end up in the same situation
2
@CatsandJP thank god I don't have a tiktok account but I've heard what they show and it disturbs me . Making adults pretend they're invisible and getting kids to cry and stuff like this, it really is disturbing and shouldn't allowed
1
@Zei33 The grand illusions continues.
1
Yes let's all be American let's not understand politics well if you don't know you are stupid not everybody is like you
1
Everything's a bloody conspiracy theory that you think has only started since you found education. Yes the media is there to make money through advertising that is what they do so they need to get as many people watching as possible
1
@baabaabaa2293 your generation needs to accept that you're not going to get any good service anymore because none of the young people are willing to actually get into these positions and think that everything should be done for them so they can sit at home playing video games and showing off on tictok . So much anger but no one is contributing to the solution
1
@sanjesingh I've got no idea what you're talking about I'm really sorry I'm not being rude but you just waffle on you're not actually telling me what you're trying to say . It is very simple we do not want what has been going on for 50 years and if they've got a magic Bullet why aren't they using it now ? If only the yes people could just explain how having a voice is going to stop the human atrocities I would vote yes . Extra politicians is not going to help especially when the minister for Aboriginal affairs is actually white and no one in the Aboriginal community's knows who she is
1
It is an unwritten rule in Australia the full blood Aboriginal people are not allowed to be seen in the media or in politics because they will spill the beans on what's actually going on. The committee's want to waste their time having meetings about what offends them not about the real issues. In the last 40 years we've given a trillion-dollars in funding and we're still only up to plurals and that sort of stuff
1
You're voting for exactly the same as we've always had people that have no idea what's going on in the community's claiming that they're experts on indigenous culture , who soak up the budget by being offended by everything so they don't actually have to get out and do work on the ground
1
r/ what the f*** does that mean can't you write a proper word
1
@DD-bx8rb it's not about that it's about making it legal for white people to call themselves Aboriginal and take vast amounts of money off the Australian government when they're not actually doing anything for the full bloods
1
 @johney3734 right and left is an imaginary concept to divide human being so they're arguing amongst each other and won't notice what's actually going on
1
In the last 40 years we've spent over a trillion-dollars and we're still at what they want to be called seriously I mean we're not getting bang for the buck nothing is going to change when you have corrupt committee members that are not representing the people in the bush
1
The fact that they won't allow full bloods on the committee says it's not about them it's about lots of mixed blood people soaking up all the funding and not giving it to the people who really need it
1
@andreikondisenko6089 you're not doing the cause any justice by this comment
1
Australia has had an unwritten rule for a long time, the full bloods are not allowed to be in the media or politics because they will start telling everybody what's going on and this voice thing is just the same there's no full bloods on the committee and it's just going to be a waste of money
1
I think most Australians want change but with these corrupt committees we're not going to get that ,what are they going to do different that they haven't done in the last 50 years? Surely if they have the magic answer to this it should be put in place immediately to stop the human atrocities that are happening every day in Australia . And why is it the full blood elders are not allowed on these committees maybe they would be asking for money to be spent where it's actually needed not on committee meetings about what they're offended about this week
1
@matbon9614 I think we need to be asking these committees why not all members of the Aboriginal community are allowed to be on these committees making the decisions? it's not like they're need someone to speak for them they can speak for themselves and that's not going to happen because the government wants to hide it away and not let the issues that are happening become mainstream information. When the prime minister did his media thing he's standing there with traditional aboriginal people saying these people need a voice but they're not allowed on the committee it's about time we asked questions about why this is happening. And we need to have a discussion about people being called racist for simply saying that someone is part English part aboriginal the full bloods don't have a problem with this it's all the people that want to steal all the funding and jobs that don't want this subject bought up because they don't want to explain why they're there and the full bloods are not
1
@cgraham209 I'm happy to explain for 50 years we've had committee members dealing with this issue with a trillion-dollars in funding and nothing has ever been done. You'll notice there's no community elders on the committee only people who are from the city or have very little contact with the indigenous people in the bush where the problems are. No one is explaining how this voice is going to change that how its going to stop the ministers from stealing all the money while people suffer in the bush like has always been the case
1
I can guarantee in 2 years time the situation in the bush is going to be even worse nothing will ever change and it's just more bureaucracy that we can't get rid of. It's exactly the same thing the elders are not allowed to be on the committee's so all the money can be spent in the city
1
Plenty are looking after labour as well
1
Shorly this would prove that the Aboriginal ministers over the last 50 years have been completely useless and they should all hand their paychecks back if we now need to change this
1
@ladyangua1 no the mixed-blood people who keep telling the full bloods it's highly racist to mention that subject will be doing exactly what they always done not allowing the full bloods to speak. The people voting on the committee's aren't necessarily the people who need the assistance
1
So many words but you're not actually saying much at all
1
@spidermoth1170 well let's take away tiktok and all these companies that are asking them to commit crimes so they can be popular and the company can make millions of dollars out of showing they're video and we might actually have a charge of solving this but no one wants to admit that the big nasty internet is actually to blame just like we won't admit the China is causing climate change because everybody's having too much fun playing with the toys
1
@easternfrontagain but what are they going to do different that they haven't done for the last 50 odd years ? The elders in the communities have been ignored for a long time so that the committee's can spend all the money on silly symbolic stuff but not actually doing any work in the community's and that's not going to change. When we see actual full blood committee members from the community's on the committee I will vote yes straight away
1
@steveremington but hang on the full bloods don't have a problem with that term it is the people like Lidia Thorpe who are obviously are not predominantly Aboriginal making the decisions for everybody, who came up with this thing that it's racist because they don't want any conversation about why the full bloods are not on the committee's and why these committees only deal with symbolic issues and not the real shit that's going on
1
@steveremington as for the rest of your comment got no idea what you're talking about maybe you should attempt to make that a bit clearer. It is the people in regional Australia that can see what's going on unlike the city people
1
@alelectric2767 I was a fat kid and when I would complain about being beaten up every day and coming back from recess bleeding they would tell me to lose weight and that would solve the problem. The headmaster that said I would never amount to anything despite the fact that I was a famous entertainer for a long time got locked up for paedophilia ( no checks back then) and was one of three from our school . 45 degrees sports day with no water or sunscreen when they eventually bought the water out in one bucket we all come running over like we just come out of my concentration camp and started vomiting because we couldn't take so much water in. things have certainly changed but it doesn't mean that we're all nut cases or should use this as an excuse to misbehave
1
@alelectric2767 I forgot to mention your home life now what your parents didn't let you play with video games or was it actually something serious
1
I keep hearing the self-determination but then I see white women on the committee's not the elders so that's why I'm voting no
1
You do know that they're not going to get a voice the elder's of the communities are not allowed to speak in Australia it's always been like that and it always will. This is just a way of spending the indigenous budget on white people instead of where it should be going
1
@schrenk-d no the answer is for everybody to grow up and get rid of social media because that's causing all the problem by encouraging kids to break the law so that the social media companies can get more traffic can't you see that
1
@modonohue9980 you've never heard of succinct have you lol
1
You are being scammed they're not going to listen to you it's just going to be lots of committee members soaking up all the money while people in the bush don't get a thing and nothing will change I guarantee it. The elder's of your community need to be on these committees not people from the city
1
I voted labour but look what's happened we're all starving no one can afford rents anymore we're being asked to vote on a racist alteration to our constitution we are the leading cause of climate change all over the world.... However the problem is there's no one to replace them because people aren't going to university or studying to become community leaders ,theyre on tik tok or playing video games
1
Yes well maybe people should understand it they can't have a three-bedroom mansion if they're picking fruit you need to put away the luxuries for a couple of months while you make money that's the way it was always done. As for more permanent jobs well we should have laws that the greedy landlord from overseas can't keep putting up the prices
1
We also have to stop telling young people how amazing they are and setting them up for a lifetime of failure with their big fancy language but no actual skills
1
They're not going to build accommodation if young people aren't going to get off their ass and get educated. being able to use all the big fancy words is ok but you need the skills to back it up and that's not happening young people don't want to get educated because there's too many things to distract them
1
 @amymaddock2557 and I guarantee you could not tell me what that word means without Googling it
1
The problem is everybody is obsessed with their own identity group and believes that the media should be giving them 24 hours coverage and that is not possible therefore no government from now on will last longer than one term . People are to selfish
1
No it's political correctness destroying society in every way we can't say these disgusting landlords from overseas are ripping us off we're not allowed to even mention that so they just keep putting up the price
1
Yes they're a company trying to get your attention I don't know why people think this is a conspiracy theory
1
We know why they're doing this because Google is encouraging them to do this . But when Google is more powerful than all the government's on earth put together we really can't do anything about it
1
No the problem is young people being told how amazing they are so they don't actually want to get an education so they're not getting into politics they're not getting into the workforce and we have a bunch of politicians that don't really have to be worried about their jobs because no one is replacing them because the average 40 year old is much more interested in showing off on tik tok as opposed to becoming community leaders so until we can fix this and get some new politicians in we have to put up with this
1
@Zei33 Mate I'm 51 years old I don't need to be educated buy some smart ass kid who thinks he's gods gift to intelligence because he has a Google account. It is you that doesn't understand now I'm going to get back to getting stoned goodnight
1
@joshmaclean3179 I really get annoyed when smart-ass people make comments no one can understand . And I think you've left the have a good day thing a bit late it's 11 at night lol
1
Not sure where you get that from the place is flooded with you people
1
 @ramifridhi4038 yes will Canada has water we don't
1
The media is a business so if people are not watching on mass they're not going to put money into it which is why most television is crap now
1
Unfortunately the young people are so obsessed with Google and having fun 24hrs a day that they really are no longer able to get degrees or anything and we are going to see more of this
1
I noticed the word entertainment in there this is the big problem people want to be entertainment 24hrs a day not get an education
1
Just because the entire media doesn't put on everything you want to watch it doesn't mean it should be removed. Now I believe that a man should be running the station because women can't get over this touchy emotion crap but it shouldn't be defunded
1
 @divyanshd3969 I'm so incredibly amazing that I don't have to do anything and other people can do it for me if I'm so smart why do I need to do a university degree that is the problem
1
Will sadly there's no one around to replace the politicians because the average adult now has been groomed to act like a 10-year-old buying Google and China . Which is why we don't have any politicians caring about their jobs because there's no one to replace them
1
What a stupid thing to say
1
@celestereid588 my nephews friend was quite shocked when he failed is driving test, he actually said I got top score on whatever driving game he referred to
1
This is why the Chinese released covid so we can only buy their products and to indoctrinate everybody into this online world which is very dangerous
1
I think the big problem is group identity everybody needs to say I'm part of this group I'm an animal lover I'm this I'm that I'm a gamer because they have no other title maybe we should be looking at this angle as well
1
@blueknight07 you don't get to expect anything from me mate I hope you understand that
1
@ZabbathMakesArt you cannot blame the boomers because the current generation is too stupid to understand where all the money is going it is not the boomers fault but you're spending all your money on Google products and Chinese toys as opposed to looking after the family and paying the bills. And of course if you just stop with all this group mentality you would actually have some political power and you could fix these problems but everybody wants to be in their own little group ,don't blame the boomers for your own stupidity
1
@blueknight07 I was referring to television media
1
@countyorga764 ???
1
Yes but unlike the uneducated yanks we didn't make him Prime Minister when he tried
1
@freeman10000 maybe now but Australians were a lot more intelligent when he ran for the election
1
@kentallard8852 obviously highly intelligent aren't you
1
@thethirdman225 Yes my mates sister worked for a television station.
1
@tjmarx highly relevant to Australia are you joking they're killing the planet they using slave labour so 40-year-old man can have toys even releasing a pandemic so we're all trapped at home and can only buy stuff from them which basically has destroyed small business in Australia me being one of them .seriously what the f*** the sooner China is dissolved the better. I know young people are to brainwashed to see what's actually going on but I can't believe you said that
1
Yes absolutely brilliant to see her come out and say this . I don't support a lot of her policies but some I do however in this world of Google identity groups that's not allowed apparently which is probably why were in the shit at the moment
1
@thethirdman225 I'm still not seeing the meaning of gaslighting being used here
1
@FlamingLily they are slamming him because his policies are not in keeping with modern thinking probably something someone who plays computer games wouldn't understand
1
If you're going to use dramatic terms like gaslighting you need to know what they mean . The average politician or people employed in the media simply wouldn't have the intelligence to do this
1
 @Rage_Harder_Then_Relax but i bet your screaming and yelling when nothing is being done
1
It's a very complicated issue. And I think a lot of problems result from the gay community , how often have you actually heard these people say gay people are born like this they had no choice in that ? everybody wants to go look at us we've got rights we are so stereotypically fabulous you must understand us ,well they don't because the hetro brain is not geared up to understand us just like we don't understand them . Maybe a little bit less of the shoving it down people's throats and we may actually be able to go forward . These gay groups need to understand that it was only 40 years ago, it was still legal to kill gay people in certain states in Australia . The fact that the community is pushing this message so hard is why these nutcases like Mark and sky and a lot of other organisations are freaking out. Again no one explained to them that we were too scared to say anything up until now and that's why you're seeing so much of this, which has resulted in all these hatred. Also for those people that live outside of Sydney and Melbourne it's very challenging because political correctness is one thing reality is another and I've had to shift 32 times simply because I was born different
1
@blueknight07 I expect more .... That is not friendly conversation as for spelling something wrong that is the spell checks problem not mine, unfortunately the software is designed to do that to make us look like idiots so other idiots won't feel out of place , are you seriously telling me it's never happened to you? As for your original question every single news channel on television seems to support the for mentioned political party I don't know what stuff you watch on the net but I'm talking about real media
1
In the look at me look at me I'm so fabulous age, I don't think that is correct
1
As usual the internet is never the enemy when they actually are, they're the ones encouraging kids to do this so that the big companies can get traffic
1
