“Chapter IX Recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples

129 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice

In recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia:

there shall be a body, to be called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice; the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples; the Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions, powers and procedures.

This referendum does not establish a First Nations Voice enshrined in the Constitution. This Amendment is a nothingburger. They didn't even enshrine the right for the Voice to address parliament. They said the voice "may" make representations to the Parliament and the Executive. I'm pretty sure anyone "may" make representations to the Parliament and the Executive if the Parliament and the Executive see fit.

The Parliament already has power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. The whole point was to make a "Voice enshrined in the Constitution" not to enshrine in the constitution a Voice subject to parliament.

I don't care how you vote but if you think this referendum will make Aboriginal Australians' lives better you are kidding yourself. This is a performative measure so that people can feel good about themselves while they continue to live on stolen land and profit from genocide.

Its not that the details haven't been ironed out its that none of the details will be protected by the constitution.

The wording of the referendum makes the voice a political football.

Yes the famous Kremlin news at... telegraph.co.uk

Did they solve the issue of F16s needing pristine runways to take off and land? Russia as been able to damage Patriot AA in the heart of Kiev months ago so any airstrip in Ukraine is basically a sitting duck. A kinzal missile has an effective range 1.5-2x a F16 and all it has to hit is the runway to ground every f16 on an airbase. That said theyd still probably get more flight time than the average F35

HA! And now you have been hexed too! If you were quiet we wouldn't have known to hex you but now you will forever be noticing that your shoes are untied and have rocks in them. haha ha ha!

Maybe a bit. Is it abelist to point at bones sticking out of someone's leg and say "you might have a broken leg?" I'm not saying op does have a personality disorder but the causality switching thing is a red flag to me due to past situations.

Bigotry deserves nothing but chiding derision. Bad faith gets met with bad faith. How is that hard to understand?

"I'm being hostile to you because you deserve it."

That isn't what I said. Cause and effect can't just be swapped around all willy-nilly like that. This is called gaslighting when its done intentionally but when its done unintentionally it can often be a sign of a personality disorder.

Being actively hostile... Don't engage with these turds

We are openly hostile but only to bigots and bad faith posters. If we were hostile to you you probably deserved it.

If a merc oligarch can decide who gets to lead the armed forces against the president's wishes who is really in charge of the country? Even if Prigo did't depose Putin it would be clear who the real boss was.

being a Nazi sympathizer does not automatically invalidate one's opinions on other topics

I'll fight you on that especially when the "other topics" are "opposing Communist states."

It is entirely possible that the UN decided to overlook their crimes due to pressure from China.

UN is a China Puppet? GTFO. The Peoples Republic of China wanted to join the UN in the 1950s but wasn't granted membership until 1971 despite being the government representing over a fifth (22%) of the population of the planet.

You were thinking that I gobbled up and regurgitated all the US propaganda and that this is just a conspiracy theory

China is not committing genocide in Xinjiang camps the only one saying they are is a nazi sympathiser. If you are saying it it is only because you have not recognized that it is propaganda spread to delegitimize a communist government and rehabilitate fascism.

Besides, I am pretty sure that when women are given more education, they decide not to have so many children either by using condoms or having less sex rather than getting IUDs.

This is peak "I have never discussed contraception with a woman." If you are going to choose between having less sex and fucking any time the mood takes you what will you choose? If you can choose between having to insist your partner wear a condom or just not having to worry about it what would you choose? No offense if you are asexual or whatever but this is like pure male virgin ignorance.

Here is an opinion post from the Washington Post.

that's not news that is an opinion piece that references Zenz who is a liar and Nazi sympathiser.

The UN has done a fact finding Mission and they said there is no evidence of a Uyghur Genocide. It didn't happen.

Yes there are Vocational schools in Xinjiang but that is to teach people trades to lift themselves out of poverty. The only "culture" being erased is religious extremist terrorism that snuck in through Afghanistan when USA pushed the Taliban out of Afghanistan. Yes there was a rapid increase in birth control measures in Xinjiang but that is what happens when women are given education, economic self determination, and access to proper medical care. They get a IUD so they can focus on living their lives the way they want to instead of being slaves to men who use them as domestic servants and baby incubators.

Zenz based his entire "genocide" theory off statistics and bad math because he is involved in the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation. It is an organization built to spread hate against communism. They hate Communism because the USSR killed 7/10 nazis that died in WW2. The large majority of "Victims of Communism" were Nazis and the people memorializing them are nazis too.

What does incarceration rate have to do with how good the country is?

not "how good it is" "How it treats its people" America locks up its people way more (531/100k) than other China (119/100k). Is imprisoning people treating them well?

Kids in cages. There's some photo's there and I think you'll probably respect WaPo as a source.

You can try again but I'm gonna guess that it is just a picture of a building or some prisoners with no context on how many people are there or why they are there.

So are we gonna talk about how USA has the highest incarceration rate in the world? Are we going to talk about income equality in USA vs China? Are we going to talk about the Concentration camps for refugee children on the USA border? (If you are going to bring up Xinjiang I'm going to need some photographic evidence beyond vibes and zenz doing bad statistical analysis)

America has been at war for all but like 7 years of its entire 239 year existence and they started almost all of them.

so... Death to america.

Don't you get it? People come and go, they live and die but what lasts is lines on maps. The lines on the map are the only thing that matters. If Russia moves the line on the map into Ukraine to cover people that want to live in Russia whats to stop them from moving other lines into other nations where people who speak Russian feel persecuted by their government and nazis?

Dangerous Dave.

There is nothing that is indicating that. The evidence that we do have is that the "several specimens were positive for rhinovirus, the cause of the common cold.".

Did you not read? its in the article you linked. No pathogen identified. Some of them may have had Rhinovirus too but obviously that was ruled out or they wouldn't have said "Despite extensive testing of multiple specimens, no specific pathogen was identified as the cause of the outbreak"

While there has been a noticeable decrease in EVALI cases since 2020 that is likely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has closed schools and limited social activities limited, the illness has not gone away.

Why would closing schools have stopped a non communicable disease caused by a hobby? That is stupid. Furthermore Schools have been reopened for a long time.

One fact which should make it very clear that's not COVID is that COVID is caused by a virus. And if it were COVID it would have spread and killed way more people, you know one of the famous traits of COVID.

Maybe it was just not as deadly or communicable at that point? Covid mutates you know. If it were a precursor kids sharing vape pens it would make transmission far easier. If there is any chance this was covid why is there no investigation into the origins of covid in USA?

You know the Spanish flu didn't originate in Spain? Its just the first place where they identified that it was a new disease. Why do they keep pushing for China to be investigated when it could have come from anywhere and just been identified first in China?

Despite extensive testing of multiple specimens, no specific pathogen was identified as the cause of the outbreak

So it could have been covid or a precursor.

https://www.rsna.org/news/2022/march/EVALI-Diagnosis

"both EVALI and COVID-19 can manifest with similar clinical and imaging findings"

They literally just got a bunch of people who got sick asked if they vaped and decided it was vaping that got them sick after ruling out a few other possibilities. A percentage of the tiny sample showed no vitamin e acetate so that can't be the cause.

Vape usage hasn't slowed down yet all but EVALI disappeared? That's like if everyone kept using asbestos but asbestosis just disappeared. Occam's razor says EVALI was Covid before they knew what covid was.

Calling out imperialist running dogs isn't toxic. Just like being aggressively anti-racist isn't toxic. If a person upholds capitalism, which is by nature exploitive and anti-egalitarian, they are toxic and deserving of rebuke.

What ever happened to the mysterious Vaping disease in USA in 2019? Its like covid happened and then vape disease disappeared. Funny how people were dying of vape disease and Unknown respiratory disease was destroying Eldercare facilities in USA way before Covid was ever discovered in China but nobody is looking into those deaths or their origins.
