So Paul has decided to play the fool rather than just fess up on his Uncle Tom gaffe. T'was always thus. I think we should leave hom to wallow in his own ignorance.

He asks "When did you come to the conclusion, if you have done so, that Warren Mundine and Jacinta Price are Aboriginal Uncle Toms? " Its the well known Year3 ploy of 'I know you are but what am I'. Hopefully he'll eventual grow out of it. I didn't call them Uncle Toms because that'd be racist and as we all know I the least racist person here....unlike Paul and his vixen sidekick.

I said earlier that, as the Yes-keteers saw the polls move against them, they'd become increasingly deranged and throw tantrums eg Langton calling No voters racist and Paul with his Uncle Tom barbs. It'll get worse

Good Morning Paul,

What exciting times we live in with so much happening.
Duncan Graham tells us to "Follow the wisdom. Founding
father John Howard says, "go No," because British
colonisation was "the luckiest thing that happened."
Jacinta Price and Warren Mundine seem to think that]
this is Spot on. Yet they're not "Uncle Toms," No
Sir.

Graham also reminds about the "facts" and "information"
being spread that "A "Yes" vote guaranties costs will
triple, quadruple, whatever you like, bashing down
hard working taxpayers struggling to put food on the
carpet. Woolies and Coles will be forced to prove
everything on their shelves complies with Indigenous
beliefs like Muslims demand halal labels..."

And there's more:

Graham reminds us that some object to "Welcome to Country,"
Burning Ceremonies," and they "Jeer when they see
"dancers" stamping their feet in gaudy gear telling
fantasies about emus. Dinky-Die Aussie culture features
little swans and magic flutes.

Hi Foxy,

We have the likes of the bigoted Sam Newman a ardent "No Bloody Way" voter who likes to belittle and mock Aboriginal people by putting on "BLACK FACE" and acting the degenerate fool, Newman is in good company, do you see any of the Forums Usual Suspects blowing up about Newman's antics, therefore they must approve.

In my post to you I pointed out how history is littered with Uncle Toms, from the many indigenous peoples that were colonised, Native American tribes are a good example, all that 'mayflower" BS. I'm not saying they were bad people, in most cases simply misguided. Several Paramount Maori Chiefs, from my wife's iwi (tribe) believed the British were good for their word, and were to be trusted, with benefits flowing to the people. Within a few short years the British had massacred 30,000 Maori and confiscated about 4 million acres of Maori land as punishment for resisting the colonisers, 2 million acres has never been returned or paid for by the Crown.

Did you notice how the lying mhaze, substituted the word ABORIGINAL for my word INDIGENOUS. Why? As I had given no Australian context to what I said about Uncle Tom's, this liar thought he better do so.

mhaze, how are you going with that Uncle Tom example I gave you Tamati Waka Nene. Look him up in history, he was a great chief in his day.

Dear Paul,

We've seen so much shameful discussion about the Voice.
Falsehoods have spread like wildfire. Disingenuous
people have peddled the grimmest of scenarios.

The best antidotes are courage and conviction to
fear and apathy.

The ongoing impacts of colonisation, the inter-generational
trauma that it's caused, is undeniable.

And yet our First Nations people having survived the
unimaginable are determined to thrive - with the help
of the Australian people voting YES.

Kristie Parker wrote that

" tens of thousands of Australians walking together
in support of the Voice was a powerful reminder of what
the Voice was all about. Unity, hope, a shared
commitment to building a better future."

"A successful referendum will give our people the dignity
of being heard on the things we know from lived experience
will work in our communities. We know best how to fix
the deeply entrenched problems that governments of all
political persuasions have failed to remedy, or even
worse - have caused."

"The quest to change the nation's "founding document"
the Constitution is no ordinary event. It's extraordinary.
We Aussies can be extraordinary."

"It's been a long journey. The most recent phase began
nearly six and a half years ago at Uluru when 250
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people issued a
remarkable set of words - Uluru Statement from the Heart.
After 12 regional dialogues representing the largest
consultation process ever of First Nations people, the
National Convention delegates - did not want to address
the proposal to politicians. They determined to speak
directly to the Australian people."

The Australian people despite all the odds turned up last
week-end in the walks for the Voice.

Hopefully, the same will happen on 14th October 2023.
When the YES vote will also gain support. Australians will
then be able to look each other in the eyes without
flinching

You don't hear the Communists complaining about Michael Jackson Wearing White Face.

Michael Jackson started life as a black boy and ended
it as a white woman.

Not sure who he associated with though, just as we
don't really know much about the strangers on this
forum who sit in anonymity and bang away on their
keyboards
