Dear individual,
My knowledge is based on facts. Yours unfortunately is not. Posted by Foxy, Thursday, 6 July 2023 10:56:25 AM

There has been a setback to Left racist policies in America, where the Supreme court has found in favour of Students for Fair Admissions.
Ironically, it was Asians, not whites, who objected to the practice of using race as a factor in university admissions, claiming that they had been denied entry because of their race. US universities were giving preference to blacks and Hispanics. Meritocracy and the core principle of equality under the law has been restored, in the tertiary education sector, at least. Australian universities have special entry programs for members of underrepresented groups, particularly indigenous Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. On top of that, we are now threatened with the race-based Voice. Posted by ttbn, Thursday, 6 July 2023 2:33:32 PM

Foxy's facts are as Albanese told her to believe, not how those aboriginals at ULURU intended for the Voice.
Listen to the proposer of the Voice to Parliament’s “Yes” campaign has already hit turbulence following revelations one of its chief campaigners, Thomas Mayo, has strong communist sympathies. This week, videos were unearthed of Mayo speaking at online forums of the Search Foundation, established in 1990 as the successor to the Communist Party of Australia, as well as at in-person Invasion Day and Black Lives Matter rallies. In one such clip, the union official and self-described “militant” pays his respects to “the elders of the Communist Party who I think without a doubt have played a very important role in our activism”. “Tear Down the Institutions” At a May Day rally held last month in Port Kembla, Mayo told those gathered, “Every time, comrades, that we have established a voice as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, the bastards have taken it away from us.” Mayo singled out former Australian Prime Minister John Howard as one of those “bastards”, according to The Australian. In other footage, using classically Marxist language, Mayo states his intention to “change the system and tear down the colonizers institutions that harm our people”. He also said that the power of the Voice would be its ability to “punish politicians that ignore our advice” on legislation and funding. Mayo, a Darling of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese Thomas Mayo is a signatory of the Uluru Statement from the Heart. He was chosen by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to sit on the Referendum Working Group, which drafted the referendum question, and was invited to stand by the PM’s side when the referendum wording was unveiled. Mayo has also co-authored The Voice to Parliament Handbook with veteran journalist Kerry O’Brien. Mayo’s vision for the Voice directly contradicts Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s claim that the referendum proposal is “modest”, and one that will merely help Australia’s most vulnerable and unify the nation.

Quoted: "Thomas Mayo (aka Thomas Mayor) was a protege of Brian Manning, a MUA activist working on the Darwin wharves when young Thomas put his hand up to be an Organiser for the Maritime Union of Australia, NT Branch.
Brian Manning was an out and out Communist, joining the CPA in Darwin in 1959. The following year, he was elected delegate to attend the congress of the Communist Party of Australia . "An ASIO document in 1962 reported in great detail the so-called ``penetration’‘ of Aboriginal organisations by Communists and detailed that in Darwin, communists George Gibbs and Brian Manning had helped establish `the NT Aboriginal Rights Council in 1962'’ [in fact, according to Manning, the NT Council for Aboriginal Rights was formed in December 1961] and were on its council, while every member of its executive was ``a full-blood aboriginal’‘." "The focus of the struggle again shifted to independent activity of the Indigenous people themselves, and again the Communist Party of Australia (CPA), left-wing trade unionists and the socialist left offered vital support. The NT Council for Aboriginal Rights (NTCAR), in which communists George Gibbs and Brian Manning were leading members, played a crucial role. Gibbs was secretary of the NAWU’s militant waterside workers’ section, whose executive had a CPA majority. Manning was a wharfie and secretary of the CPA branch. The Darwin waterside workers had maintained their strong support for Aboriginal people’s rights that began in the 1920s" . Posted by Josephus, Thursday, 6 July 2023 2:55:34 PM

Sovereignty has not and never will be ceded by First Nations. White man’s law cannot remove sovereignty, but white man law does oppress – so long as we are not organised to affect it, and so long as our cultural authority is not written into the rule books. The aboriginal Referendum Council conducted 45 days of dialogues involving more than 100 First Nations. The more than 1300 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participants from across our vast continent poured their hearts and souls into the Uluru Statement from the Heart.

misinformation.
Foxy,
Wrong, you need to stop being so gullible ! You really would benefit greatly if you learnt how to think for yourself occasionally !
