Exactly! It’s essentially a call to bona fide clueless idiots to vote yes.

Think of it as being stupid, reckless and batshit crazy enough to accept this type of deal:

• You’ve been shown a picture of a house.
• You’ve asked for more information so you get driven past the house.
• You ask for more information like what’s inside it...elements regarding its foundations and construction etc.
• You’re essentially told NO you are required to purchase the house based on what information you have been given already.
• You keep asking for more information regardless.
• The final response is this : TRUST THE PROCESS for now and AFTER settlement you will know the rest of the details.


Now what farkkking gullible clueless idiot would sign off on such a deal? Yet Australians are being treated as such by a government that’s insulted their intelligence.

rubbish. The important thing is the recognition of a voice. How it's made up is mere bureaucracy

your arguing that you'd refuse to buy a house until you know the colour of your bed spread ... ludicrous.



Abos have hundreds of voices, including cabinet level ministers in every state and federally.

What can the Voice say that these hundreds of Aboriginal voices can't?

No it isn’t. It’s a brutally honest parallel and you bloody well know it!

In fact that’s exactly why you couldn’t answer either yes or no!

So what the **** is the point of all those Aboriginal councils, organisations, ministries? And if parliament, ministers etc have been so unrepresentative of and deaf to Aboriginal views, why the **** do Abos want to talk to them??

And The Voice will not be democratically elected either, Arrsie.

Name them so I can answer relevantly.

As for the Voice not being democratically elected...do you read what Dreyfus said?

The Voice will be an independent representative body. The intention is that its members will be selected by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples based on the wishes of local communities.
