It is amusing how people get so obsessed with some topics.
Guess it happens to all of us to some extent. To most the voice was always a nothing burger. To me it was a reasonably good idea that the government stuffed up in its planned implementation. It failed because people who would normally have been supporters voted against it because the planned implementation was a joke. The blank cheque thing of saying just vote for it and we will tell you what it actually is later. They shot it down themselves when many "yes" voters had to vote "no". |

"It is amusing how people get so obsessed with some topics."
Indeed - you'd have thought the YES group would have given up obsessing about how to get around the will of the people and plotting day and night to get what they want. I did say that Albo was as cunning as a rat - getting up there like a dedicated preacher and talking tough about The Voice while actually undermining it. Also say that Albo is a cunning statesman in that he has put the Aboriginal questions to the fore and the people are now demanding results instead of more baby-food meals for them. Here's some food for thought - though with some here it would require a whale if fish is brain food:- https://itsoktobewhite.quora.com/Why-do-white-people-get-so-bent-out-of-shape-when-black-people-try-to-educate-them-about-racial-issues-they-face |

The NO voters had the right to 'crow' - the Yes crowd were jumping up and down long before the failure and then wept bitter tears over the loss of such a silly idea as Australian Apartheid. Price of liberty = eternal vigilance. Voice was followed upon failure by the Voice By Stealth, one bit at a time, pushed by Albocorp using the states as their stalking horses.... The answer is still NO - and you saw here from the very beginning after the collapse of the voice, that the YES whiner and cryers started personally attacking the NO posters for drawing attention to this treachery by government against its people. The moment I mentioned Voice By Stealth from the State, one of them went at me like a rabid dog!! Principles, Jim - we deal here not with principalities of men and of women - but with principalities of good and evil. Do you say it is good for a government to deliberately over-ride the will of its people by using a run-around? Just because Howard got away with it over gun laws when that issue was defeated at the voting box, doesn't mean the people's view and rights are fair game.. just because Carr got away with it by abusing 'domestic violence laws' to steal legally owned firearms from the community ... doesn't make it right. Howard AND Carr etc were/are much more than whiny little rat weasels - they are the epitome of the Neo-Fascist In Reality that pervades modern politics in Australia, the kind of stone fish Heinrich Himmler type - superficially innocuous but devastating in their abuse of power unearned and not really inherent in their elected position. There are many exactly like that here and now, men and women. The YES mob are typical of all those who CHOOSE to adopt the most unpopular viewpoint and make it their own - their child-like adherence to 'teenage rebellion' for life in some cases - whether it be about the Failed Voice, or 'transgender ideology', or 'palestine' or anything else.... they essentially use air for brains.... as the children they are in reality they choose to support the unsupportable so as to give their miserable days a little verve and energy .... And guess what.... all those ideologies are going down as we speak.... the rights of the people are paramount and must be obeyed by those paid to oversee their rights and their country and their and its overall prosperity. Drain The Billabongs!! |

Mr. Synott just waffling the same old mantra - "misinformation & lies" - with a typical half smart smirk on his face when he's called on it. He couldn't actually give one example of the misinformation or the lies. That's because the actual Yes campaign for the Voice was full of "no" real information and lies. Lies like "it's only a one page document". Meanwhile 30 odd pages later. ::) That Aboriginal people have "no real Voice" to govt..... yet there are hundreds if not thousands of Aboriginal bodies/associations & Land Councils that represent Aboriginal issues to govt. With a peak body - the NIAA National Indigenous Australians Agency with Aboriginal CEO Jody Broun and a Minister for Indigenous Australians Senator the Hon Malarndirri McCarthy. How many more do they need? The Voice was divisive by race and all about power and reparations. And every state Labor Govt has continued down the Truth,Treaty & Reparations path regardless of the resounding defeat of the referendum. Voice by stealth. In QLD there are now 15 towns/cities with "Freehold Native Title" claims over them - a move which is actually contrary to the intent of the Mabo decision. Quote:

We've been through quite a bit, haven’t we?
It’s almost laughable that after nearly a year, some of the most vehement anti-Voice crusaders are still shedding tears over it, even after it was defeated, the very outcome they supposedly wanted. How tragic, to be so consumed by bitterness that even victory feels like a loss. Time sure flies when you’re wallowing in hollow triumph, doesn’t it? |

Note that these are not 'Native Title' claims for shared use - these are blatant freehold claims - demands for developed and developable land without payment and to be passed over as fully titled ownership outright.
This is what happens when 'mission creep' is allowed through the door with even the initial granting of limited 'native title' - it just keeps changing little by little until every claim is suddenly for freehold. And this is not just for a town block to build a home on, something nobody else is even considered for - it is for vast swathes of land - that one day will be the cause of Civil War. Not One Person In Queensland Voted On This!! It's all been done behind the people's backs by faceless bureaucrats changing the meaning of things like 'title' etc ... 'ownership'.... nobody else can just grab a chunk of prime land freehold without payment.... this is Australia 2024 - not the old days of Aboriginal Imperialism by the Spear... You must put a stop to this form of government Fascism NOW - get rid of all the Gauleiters and Kommissars installed under the Old Jobs For The Mates Club rules of appointed senior public service management (warned yez about that years ago - now the fruit is rotting on the tree - look at the farcical 'governor-general' - never did a thing worth anything in life but know some of the scum who handed her the fat job and cash for life)! The best course for the next government is to quash all these instantly, sack those responsible without payment, and get back to the reality of governing for all. One Law For All - All Laws For One - Or No Law At All!! |

Even if those things are happening, they are not "The Voice." Just because you, and many like you, have decided to redefine what "The Voice" was, primarily so you can argue that anything benefiting Indigenous people after the referendum is undemocratic, doesn’t change its actual meaning, no matter how many times you repeat the lie. We’ve been over this again and again. You choose to ignore the truth because it doesn’t align with your agenda. The Voice was just one part of the Uluru Statement. If any of the other components that we didn’t vote on are being considered, that’s not “The Voice by stealth.” That is the implementation of the other elements of the Uluru Statement. These are separate issues. At this point, I’m certain you’re not so ignorant as to misunderstand the difference. And that makes it worse, because it means you're deliberately lying after knowing better. |

And that's what is going on in every Labor State by stealth. That you choose not to see it is your problem. The mad rush on "Inalienable Freehold Native Title" claims that are being rushed through on the quiet by the QLD Labor Govt is proof that the whole exercise is about power and money(reparations/pay the rent).

Ok, let me stop you there. Labor's plan was to implement the comprehensive reforms outlined in the Uluru Statement from the Heart, which consists of several parts. Voice: This was the first step - calling for a constitutionally enshrined Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament. The idea was to give Indigenous peoples a direct role in advising the government on laws and policies that affect their communities. Treaty (Makarrata Commission): The second step envisioned by the Uluru Statement is the establishment of a Makarrata Commission to supervise a process of treaty-making between Indigenous peoples and the Australian government. The term Makarrata refers to a Yolngu word meaning "coming together after a struggle" and symbolises reconciliation and the settling of disputes. The goal of the treaty would be to formalise the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, acknowledging sovereignty and rights, while setting out obligations and future directions. Truth-telling: The third element called for a national process of truth-telling about the history and treatment of Indigenous Australians, including the dispossession, violence, and marginalisation experienced since European colonisation. Truth-telling is seen as critical for national healing, promoting understanding, and fostering reconciliation. The referendum addressed solely the issue of the Voice, as a vote was required due to the constitutional amendment it proposed. The other two elements of the Uluru Statement, treaty and truth-telling, were not part of the referendum and remain separate from the constitutional question. Therefore, if any government continues to pursue those additional aspects, it cannot be characterised as being done "by stealth." These intentions were openly communicated from the outset. The rejection of constitutional change for the Voice has no bearing whatsoever on the pursuit of the remaining reforms. Quote:
The real issue here is the disingenuous attempt by you, and others like you, to conflate every element of the Uluru Statement with "The Voice." Worse still, some go as far as labelling any effort to assist or even mention Indigenous Australians as "The Voice." This deliberate misrepresentation is precisely the problem. Especially when some concede, Sir Grappler Truth Teller OAM wrote on Jul 11th, 2024 at 11:35pm:
You are free to oppose measures that support Indigenous Australians, but what you cannot do is cloak that opposition under the false pretext that it’s all about "The Voice" or that it's somehow undemocratic because the No vote prevailed. That’s nothing more than cowardice and intellectual dishonesty, both on your part and among those who share your position. Quote:
Alright, let me pose a question to you, or to anyone bold enough to answer. Let's settle this once and for all. If Albanese had never put the Voice referendum to the people, if we had never held the vote, would you now be supporting the very policies you’re complaining about as "The Voice by stealth"? Would your objections vanish, or are you just using the referendum result as a convenient shield for your broader resistance to any genuine progress on Indigenous issues? |

Title: Re: The Voice! The Voice anniversary! Post by Grappler Truth Teller Feller on Oct 17th, 2024 at 9:56pm
That's right - and since those all comprised part of the Uluru Statement which was the entire basis of the voice idea, all of those issues were voted on.
We understand politician chicanery, and how they speak with a forked tongue.... Australia voted on the entire set of issues included in the statement - not only on the voice proposal. To say otherwise is to lie. What consent of the people has been asked and give to the massive changes being forced through by Labor governments? NONE! You can choose to believe what you want - you have no right to continue to try to force your view on others after the people voted NO. Let's go at it your way, just for fun:- The first step was voted down. There is no second step. |

If any government was honest about "Inalienable Freehold Native Title" claims" - it would put that concept to a vote of all the people, since it is clearly handing over a separate and unequal privilege that nobody else gets a look at = apartheid, and does not accord with the law of the land that requires purchase of property.
Two sets of laws for property acquisition = breach of common law for all equally and trouble for everyone and no solution at all. |

Title: Re: The Voice! The Voice anniversary! Post by Grappler Truth Teller Feller on Oct 17th, 2024 at 10:05pm
If these are separate issues, and impact on rights of all equally - then they must be put to a vote of the people, not just pushed through over the people.
No politician or public servant since Hitler has had the right to simply impose on the people in this way. The answer is NO! Put it to a vote of the people before you steal their rights. |

Easy then - equal dealing under the law requires that all have the right of 'Inalienable Freehold Title' to any piece of land their ancestors walked over. anything else is apartheid - two sets of laws for two separate but equal groups.
Don't know how the Recent Imports are going to handle that though... and since the people had no say in this, it is clear tyranny and a direct assault on our unwritten constitution that demands equal treatment under law, and must therefore be treated as such and the culprits hanged. |

That may be true in your distorted reality, but it's unequivocally and demonstrably false. We voted on, Quote:
We did not vote on the other elements of the Uluru Statement during the referendum. Quote:
I'm all too familiar with your 'la-la land' delusions surrounding your so-called 'Absoic park' or whatever fantasy you've concocted, along with the absurdity of your hand-drawn maps. Sometimes you just let crazy be crazy, but this, this is a step too far. You're wilfully rejecting documented, verifiable reality in favour of fabricating something that aligns better with your own prejudices. The other aspects of the Uluru Statement didn't require constitutional amendment, and thus were never part of the referendum question. We didn't vote on them during the referendum, we did that in the 2020 Election. Quote:
Labor made a clear election promise to advance the Uluru Statement, with the first element being a referendum to enshrine an Indigenous Voice to Parliament in the Constitution. The Voice may have failed, but that was merely one component of the broader Uluru Statement. To fulfil their election pledge, they are obligated to pursue the remaining elements. We elected them in 2020 with this as part of their platform. They may not have your consent, but they have a mandate from the people to honour that commitment. That’s how democracy works. Quote:
Belief is irrelevant, facts remain facts. No one is forcing a constitutionally recognised Indigenous Voice to Parliament. It's not happening. You can cry all you want, but whether it's a year on from the vote, or ten, it still won’t happen, not without another vote. Quote:
The first element was rejected. The rest can, and absolutely should, proceed. This isn’t "The Voice by stealth", it’s Labor upholding an election promise. Your willingness to be brainwashed by the usual suspects, treating every Indigenous issue as "The Voice," doesn’t rewrite reality.

I can't imagine it being much worse than now... He's been complaining like he lost this whole time. Which in a way, he did. The Voice only mattered to him because it was a cover to spew his racist rhetoric under the guise of legitimate debate. That ended the moment the vote was defeated. Or at least, it should have ended there. Instead, he persists in extending his veneer of legitimacy by labelling any and all news related to Indigenous Australians as "the voice by stealth." He has orchestrated multiple threads, alleging instances of "Lawfare" aimed at implementing this so-called "voice by stealth," all in a calculated effort to maintain the guise of engaging in "legitimate debate." In reality, it is nothing more than a strategy to perpetuate his hateful rhetoric while attempting to evade accountability. That's all that's been happening and why he hates me so much, because I won't allow it to go unchallenged. He knows I’m right, and he’s fully aware that no one truly believes his fabrications. The chorus of individuals feigning agreement does so only because they seek the same protective cover he craves. To them, he’s nothing more than a useful idiot, serving their interests while deluding himself into thinking he has their genuine support. If you examine just a few of the issues he’s been lamenting over, you’re forced to ask: what relevance do the following have to Lawfare or this so-called "Voice by stealth"?
In reality, it's simply this, Sir Grappler Truth Teller OAM wrote on Jul 11th, 2024 at 11:35pm:
To perpetuate the discussion by falsely attributing these examples to the idea of subverting democracy by going against the will of the people, he's trying to paint himself as the victim while at the same time hide under that banner of "legitimate debate" to continue to spew his racist rhetoric. Ultimately, that is the essence of these tears. "Waaaaaa I can't be racist anymore without being held to account for it, waaaaa!" He wails even louder when you point out that this very foundation of his arguments renders any good-faith debate with him utterly impossible. His pathetic attempt to label this accurate assessment of his behaviour as "abusive" is laughable. Oh, poor didums! He’s such a victim, isn’t he? We should all shower him with the sympathy and attention he desperately craves, ignoring the need for any critical examination of his claims and letting trivial matters like facts fall by the wayside.

We voted NO on a constitutional change to enshrine an Indigenous advisory body to parliament, "The Voice." That’s it. One single element from the Uluru Statement required a referendum and a double majority to pass. It didn’t, so there will be no Voice. Simple as that. We did not vote NO on the entirety of the Uluru Statement or any future Indigenous policies. The Voice was one part, and that’s all. YOU might have voted against everything else in your own head, but that wasn’t what was on the table. Claiming we voted NO to everything else is as absurd as saying we rejected pineapple on pizzas at the referendum. Stop inventing nonsense. The question was crystal clear: Quote:
What part of this don’t you get? This is where you—and people like you—are outright lying about the situation, either out of sheer stupidity, wilful ignorance, or malicious intent. It's been explained to you and your crowd countless times, so the fact that you persist with this false narrative is no accident. It’s a deliberate and deceitful choice. Labor's platform was crystal clear when they ran for office. They made their intentions around Indigenous Australians known, and the people voted them in. If you didn’t bother to read it or couldn’t comprehend it, that’s your failure, not some secret conspiracy. Everything that's happening aligns 100% with what they campaigned on. There’s no stealth agenda here, just your inability to face facts. Here are a few examples straight from their election platform: Quote:
You, Grap, and anyone else whining about this are not victims. This is democracy in action, plain and simple. All the information was out there for anyone willing to be informed on election day. If people chose to ignore it, that’s their problem. The electorate was informed, and they cast their votes accordingly. That’s democracy. If you can’t handle the outcome, take the advice of many like yourself when defending Abbott, Turnbull, Abbott and Morrison, and just leave. Simple. |

The only thing deliberate and deceitful is State Labor Govts thinking they have a right or tyhe authority to go down the treaty path ... the treaty path is all about reparations.
They are also party to "freehold" native title claims without releasing any details ... so they must have something to hide because these land handovers are all about money. When Aboriginals are in receipt of bordering on $36 billion a year from taxpayers for education, health, welfare and employment programs specifically for them only then you should answer the question as to when is enough enough? The details of the one bit of the Uluru statement being what the referendum was all about is BS. It's all connected. There were & are already 100's and 100's of Aboriginal bodies that represent/advise on Aboriginal issues to Govt. NIAA ring any bells? Adding another level of bureaucracy to our govt through the Constitution based on race was a stupid idea ... and no one has actually been able to pin point what actually it's capacity or power would have been - let alone who'd be on it. All our current Politicians - MPs and Senators are elected by all Australians ... including Aboriginals. Why should they have had 2 chops at the cherry tree or are now able to have anything else implemented because of the Uluru statement? Despite all your woke defense of what is happening with (their)Truth, Treaty & freehold land claims ..... it continues to be all about power & reparations. |

Apartheid IS a direct assault on any democracy of equals.
(That'll get their ulcers burning this morning.) The two gentlemen below me have put it very nicely. Footnote:- I was frankly astounded to hear Uncle Calma (think it was) actually ask the burning question:- "What special rights do Aborigines have?" - and the interviewer neatly side-steeped away from giving any answer. The right to demand huge freehold swathes of land, something nobody else can do, and even have such nonsense received as 'reasonable'. The enormous number of representative groups that nobody else has. The clearest examples of 'inside running' on any 'issue' they choose to raise, something nobody else has. Mandatory consultation on any 'issue' they choose to raise, something nobody else has over the same issues. A benevolent hearing in every avenue including media, government and all, over any 'issue' they wish to raise, something nobody else has over the same issues. In fact, any opposing or differing view is met with a verbal violence which is frankly astounding to any reasoning person, and is startlingly reminiscent of the blatant abuse used by any despotic movement in history. (look at here for example). The 'right' to demand a 'sovereignty' totally unexplained and totally unreasonable and unworkable in any democracy. The right to demand and actually expect 'treaties' between themselves and the very nation of which they are part - or of which they choose to not be part, in which case their citizenship is revoked, along with all privileges of citizenship. The right to dictate to elected and appointed government what they consider to be their entitlements, something nobody else has. Amazing but all true. |

It is connected in the sense that the Voice, like Treaty and Truth Telling, were elements of the Uluru Statement. Quote:
These factors may well have influenced why some within the majority "No" vote chose not to support the referendum question. Quote:
There will not be a constitutionally enshrined Voice to Parliament; the electorate voted against it. Similarly, the nation elected Labor in the last federal election, with a platform that explicitly included the following: Quote:
YOU may personally disagree with this outcome, but that is the essence of democracy. The facts don't care about your feelings. Quote:
By all means, oppose Truth Telling and Reconciliation, but do so with integrity. Don't base your argument on the dishonest and blatantly misleading claim that the referendum was a vote against these principles, because it simply wasn’t. The question on the ballot did not even touch upon them, not remotely. You, Grap, and those who share your views, must stop perpetuating this lie. If your opposition to Labor's mandate is so weak that you must fabricate its foundation,whether to cast yourselves as victims or pretend that democracy is being undermined,you've lost before the debate even begins. Frankly, this is the most absurd example of so-called "stealth" I've ever encountered. Labor clearly stated: "We will pursue this if elected." And yet, your response? "OMG THEY'RE DOING THINGS BY STEALTH!!!" It’s laughable. I can't fathom why you and your ilk continue to distort reality. You won the referendum; there will be no Voice. Take the win. Stop twisting its outcome into something it wasn’t, simply because the debate is over, and you’ve lost your avenue to mask bigotry in a veneer of political discourse. That’s the only plausible reason you keep clinging to these lies about the Voice and the referendum. Repeating these falsehoods will not make them true. It might bolster your delusions within Telegram echo chambers, but it holds no sway in the real world. |

For that to be true, you'd have to rewrite the very definition of Apartheid to shoehorn it into this situation and "The Voice." Thanks for confirming my suspicion that you've resorted to a textbook Grap manoeuvre, twisting terms to fit your narrative, much like you've done with "Lawfare" and "The Voice." As they say, duly NOTED! Many in the 'No' camp have pulled the same stunt, desperately grasping at an inflammatory concept to stoke outrage. It’s a predictable tactic when genuine arguments are lacking. But the Voice to Parliament proposal was not an example of apartheid. The proposal aimed to establish an advisory body for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to give them a formal voice in the legislative process. This initiative was designed to ensure Indigenous Australians had a say in policies affecting them, addressing historical inequalities and marginalisation. Apartheid refers to a system of institutionalised racial segregation and discrimination, as seen in South Africa between 1948 and 1994, where laws explicitly segregated racial groups and systematically oppressed non-white citizens. The Voice, by contrast, was intended to promote inclusivity and address the historical exclusion of Indigenous people from the decision-making processes of the Australian government. The claim was also examined in great detail, Quote:
I'll do you a favour and not post anything more than the summary to make it easier for you to edit out when you reply, which appears to be your favoured method of evading the actual discussion at hand. A convenient way to dodge engagement when things get too uncomfortable, isn't it? |

Even if one were to stretch the argument, this still isn’t apartheid. What you’re doing is deliberately misrepresenting the situation, weaponising the term to paint your opponents as the “racists.” It’s a transparent attempt to deflect from the accountability you so desperately wish to avoid for your own rhetoric, a rhetoric that, if scrutinised, would rightly have you wearing that label. The added advantage of this manoeuvre is that it allows you to once again position yourself as the victim. Those who supported the Voice, advocating for greater self-determination for Indigenous Australians, did so with the genuine intention of uplifting their communities. The status quo has failed. The Voice and the remaining components of the Uluru Statement were crafted by Indigenous leaders and elders as a thoughtful framework to address longstanding issues, to right some of the wrongs, and to provide a pathway forward for these communities. That is far from apartheid. Now let’s juxtapose that with your own disturbing proposals, segregation, imprisonment in hermetically sealed domes where people could pay to hunt them down, or your fantasies of an alternate reality where the British had "finished them off" during colonisation. You’ve gone as far as labelling any effort to benefit Indigenous Australians, public or private, as "Aboriginal supremacism." You’re not just running from your past; you’re refusing to be held accountable for it. You feign concern for these communities, when it’s abundantly clear that your preference is for their erasure. So, is it really surprising that you’ve twisted the definition of "apartheid" to suit your agenda? Hardly. You’ve managed quite the rhetorical sidestep here, so much so that you’re making Benji Marshall in his Tigers prime look pedestrian. |

It certainly clears up yours. While the situation does not equate to apartheid, you seem to envisage a reimagined version of The Voice, one that diverges significantly from the proposed framework and its potential ramifications. This vision creates a narrative in which, although it does not meet the strict criteria of apartheid, it is close enough for you to assert that it is, effectively positioning yourself as the victim. Isn’t that a bit excessive? Sure, prominent figures like Bolt and Bernardi, alongside a chorus of lesser-known voices, have propagated this claim, yet it appears driven more by emotion than by rational discourse or empirical reality. But when it tells you what you want to hear, why would you question it? Clearly, you have not. This appears to be a superficial attack line that you are ill-equipped to defend. All you do is ignore those who take the time to disprove the claim, either with selective replies, distractions, or literal erasure of their quotes. Bravo. Quote:

You ad your kind are totally one-sided - like uninformed children - those you desperately seek to ally me with and equate mmy views with are the same..... I stand for ALL the people not just some.... You mistake the generous offer of the DEMANDED homeland state of their own, and the one-off offer of a house block for each family to settle their 'land claims that never were from wandering about in small groups as tourists on the land' - a far better deal than anyone else gets here - and you CRY racist.... but, sonny - these are ABORIGINAL ideas - to have their own state/homeland where they can 'do things their way' without 'hindrance' .. to claim land that is now governed by different rules than simple armed occupation (lawfare, you see), and now to demand vast areas as Freehold since Native title does not - as I pointed out in agreement with a WA Elder - even give them the right to build a home! So the offer of a house block is both generous and unshared and is a more than fair compromise - a special privilege - and also resolves all land claims in accordance with modern usage. Once and for all - here is a very costly gift that others have to work years to get ... but that's it. If you can't make it with that start - do a Stan Grant or something - you can't make it.

This was done by people of up to 7 generations ago. Now it is time to quit the separatism and public teat sucking, get jobs and show how resilient the First Nations people are. Do better by working within the system rather than trying to be separate from it. Some do very nicely thankyou.

Then they translate that offer of a freehold piece of land into some massive swathe - an area the size of a Far Ken cattle station of=r a Fraser Island or something - which is totally beyond the pale. ADDS:- I warned yez!! I looked at that piece of fantasy created by the Queenslund 'government', and the Aborigines, local or not who get it, can sell it etc - so it is clear that gifting huge blocks of prime land like Fraser Island is ultimately intended to offer developers carte blanche to buy it all and then it's back to square one - demand more land and do it again....
