Answer to (Foxy, Tuesday, 3 October 2023 1:50:59 PM)- The view of many is that The Voice will be able to pressure the High Court of Australia to force it's decisions and will therefore be "binding" (despite Foxy's apparent claim to "non-binding"). The Voice will also have an influence over other institutions not just in Aboriginal communities but over all of Australia. The Labor Party seems to deny this assertion as expected. I'm concerned that in a world where many institutions seem to have become corrupted and propagandized by woke-ism and Communism- where can decent hardworking people go where the information isn't tainted. As they say in the end we get what we deserve- sometimes that means death- hopefully that isn't what my people choose.

I believe that Foxy is evil and hates Anglo people- despite any fence sitting claims- such as her claim to admire President Reagan- I can't believe her.

“Giving Aboriginals control over all of Australia doesn't help Aboriginals out of poverty and puts everyone else into poverty.”

and

“I pray that Australian's think hard and do what is best to stand up for their families.”

Truly fearmongering, fruit loop stuff. There is no reasoning with that kind of warped and toxic logic. Just have to call it out when it appears.

I wonder who this demented character is praying to? It isn't Jesus because that man would look at the Uluru statement from the Heart and see the words:

“Proportionally, we are the most incarcerated people on the planet. We are not an innately criminal people. Our children are aliened from their families at unprecedented rates. This cannot be because we have no love for them. And our youth languish in detention in obscene numbers. They should be our hope for the future. These dimensions of our crisis tell plainly the structural nature of our problem. This is the torment of our powerlessness. We seek constitutional reforms to empower our people and take a rightful place in our own country. When we have power over our destiny our children will flourish. They will walk in two worlds and their culture will be a gift to their country.”

And know that 57% of incarcerated kids in custody in NSW are Indigenous and see it all for what it is, deeply unjust.

As the Christian Judean bible relates:

"The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor and the day of vengeance of our God”

This is so far from anything that CM is putting out now.

May God have mercy on his tainted soul.

Steele want to use the scripture, but he does not understand and believes this does not work for aboriginals as they will always be denied good news to rise above their poverty, and are bound captives of our society, that they are denied healing, and all continue in intellectual and spiritual darkness. The Yes vote assumes they will always be in poverty, and slavery to colonizers, and captive to primitive cultures, and spiritual depression.

Always being given special attention to believe they are victims of colonizers crimes against them. AS Mundine said they must forgive and move forward and achieve like most aboriginals. Steele does not want their situation to change, as they are given special leniency in laws and treated as inferior alongside our society. He cannot accept aboriginals can compete equally and successfully in our society. He wants them permanently divided from our society by the constitution.

IF YOU BELIEVE THEY ARE LESSER PEOPLE VOTE YES!

Peter Baldwin states it is unconstitutional under the United Nations conventions to isolate a race in a national constitution.

Dear Steele,

Poor old CM. I hope that he lives long enough to see
Australia become a Republic. And, an Indigenous person
become Prime Minister.

But such is the quirk of fate that the poison in his
heart may just hasten his miserable life and force him to
depart.

He probably won't live long enough to see a monarch of
the UK's future choice of partner. A start has already
been made with the current choice of PM. It may also
influence a future monarch's choices.

Interesting times lie ahead.

Anyhow getting back to the Voice.

All this negativity. Talks should be far more positive.
The Voice is after all about giving our Indigenous
people a say in the laws and policies that will impact
on their lives.

They are simply asking to be able to be consulted.
Surely we can grant them this simple request.
It will give them some dignity and inclusion instead of
continuing to live with a history of being controlled and
excluded.

I'm kind of over democracy altogether at the moment.
I think there needs to be some serious reforms.

My problem is that when America virtue signals about it's support for democracy;
- That the word democracy is actually a codeword for imperialism.

That they bully, coerce, blackmail, threaten, cause civil unrest and conduct regime changes and military interventions without any basis except their own imperial interests, and somehow all this is perfectly fine and celebrated.

If I hear Americans virtue signal about their 'democracy' one more time, I'm going to be hard pressed not to scream.
[Not really, but you get the idea]

Until the world can come to some agreement about this issues I've listed above, I don't want to hear anyone tell me how great 'democracy' is.

Endless bickering, and poor outcomes.
From people who have zero qualifications to manage the ministries they're put in charge of.
That's what democracy is.
