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.

It is broke we're just voting not to make the damage worse.

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

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

They're not a special case

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

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

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

@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

@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

@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
