It's so nice to see Antony Green on tv, with all his screens and maps, he's just having such a good time declaring liberal loss after liberal loss

The Indigenous Voice Referendum Australia 2023
Floored and devastated
repulsed at the racist selfishness of the no voters
It had NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM.
This is NOT who we are
Although it's a comforting narrative that no voters and conservatives are dying out - and will gradually have less and less pull
Firstly - It's too gradual to just wait it out
And Secondly- It's foolish to think that's only where these no votes are coming from
Younger less educated people are part of this too
Ignorant and arrogant - and selfish- that's what less education translates to.
This highlights, more than ever, how important it is to have strict policies in place legally for managing misinformation, fear mongering and propaganda spreading
We need laws about media monopolies and restricting or banning them altogether
Because one agenda from a multimillion dollar media monopoly cannot have majority access to inform a whole country. Especially because they were intentionally running interference with the simplest truth - they threw everything at it - spreading misinformation, blatant repulsive, violent lies - totally made up lies, not even remotely connected to what was being proposed. It's heartbreaking they could invent such lies and then spread those repulsive invented lies so fully and have people believe them.
And less educated people are always more vulnerable to propaganda: they believe hatred without a second thought. They don't fact check. They don't research. They don't make sure. Any excuse to flaunt their selfish racist self interest, against anyone else who might actually be more vulnerable, worse off.
However, That's the thing about this referendum - IT WASNT "US AGAINST THEM"
It was just : do we all agree that indigenous Australians should get to share information and advice with the government about how best to provide the care and facilities we already provide to them. So they work. Because they haven't been. So it would be a good use of money and then we can achieve permanent results and solutions for those issues and then move on, and do different things with that money. To actually move forward with this and not be stuck in stasis with things not improving.
That was literally all it was
It still is an issue now.
Don't loose hope
I'm still proud of all of the Yes voters- there were a good amount of us - and we will continue to turn the tide from ignorance and misinformation to the truth.
We've got to keep going 💪🏻 🙌🏻 👏🏻 🙏🏻
And now we have a more accurate idea of how to do that , and what needs to be fixed with people's understanding of this in our country. We can use this information to succeed
Ironically - doing exactly what the referendum was about : getting more accurate information to better help vulnerable communities of indigenous Australia.
But apparently, we've got to deal with the misinformed tantrum havers first - they make everything an "us against them" even when it literally wasn't. It doesn't affect anyone else. It could only have been positive. They make every issue an "us against them " even when it has literally nothing to do with them, because everything's a tantrum if it's not about them.
We've got accurate information now - just not about the people we were expecting : we know how to combat the racist minformation spreaders, and those who believed them.
What we need is :
Real limits and legal consequences on misinformation spreading, fear mongering and propaganda
Real limits on media monopolies and restrictions from letting them operate the way they do.
AND we do have to continue to combat this misinformation and propaganda whenever it is paraded near us. Respond with the truth, and make sure you ALWAYS RESPOND.
Don't let them think they're right.
Respond simply and calmly with the truth.
I'm sorry we have to do this but we do.
I don't want to be anywhere near those people, but if they identify themselves- we have to respond.
Respond and correct them.
Their idiocy can not and does not rewrite the truth. We are right and the truth of what this is, always was and what we need to do still exists
A few sources to begin to understand this:
A breakdown of who voted what where
Interpreting these results properly - this is well worth a read
I am looking forward to seeing the full count when it's ready. Make sure to look at those things - from Official sources.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO VOTED YES
I stand proudly with you on the side of truth. Empathy. Morality. Justice
We have a more accurate idea of what's going on now: let's get to work
Also thank you to MC HAMMER for supporting and encouraging and campaigning for people to vote yes. That was lovely.
It really was a very simple thing - the truth is still the truth and we will succeed
Love and strength to us all
By goodness we need it
Xxxx🤍🖤🧡❤🤍🖤🧡❤💗💖💜💕💕💓💗
My heart was so full when I voted yes - it's an obvious yes
And it still is
Because YES is the truth
It is what is needed.
Still.
And we will achieve it xxxxx

Antony Green don't fail us now
0 notes
I am a voter who 100% agrees with Jacinta Allan on ABC saying that yep, the lockdowns sucked, but I was not angry at Dan Andrews or the Labor Party for doing it. I was angry that the hotel quarantine failed, but not angry enough to change my vote. It was all measured attempts to control a global disaster. We can't all be so outrageously disconnected from critical thinking that we couldn't see these obvious truths and imagine government is omnipotent. And certainly not provided any sense the alternative party was worthy.

I think it's both a blessing and a curse I'm at a Ross Noble show tonight. I skip the tension of following the votes but I possibly will have my night ruined coming out with the result. I do wanna see the memes though, especially Antony Green.
