Fuck, imagine being this stupid.

Imagine me typing

I'm moving to Canada to be with my friends.

And still typing that dogshit-brained shit.

What a perfect example of why I'm moving. What a perfect example of vapid Aussie exceptionalism.

Sounds like ARMA, walk for an hour and get shot from God knows where. Just like real life!

As others have stated, we explicitly don't have free speech in Australia.

We also don't have any laws requiring political campaigns to be truthful. And as we saw, the day after the vote was done. All the leaders of the "No" campaign flat out abandoned indigenous people and explicitly said they wouldn't be fronting a new referendum for recognition in the constitution without the voice. A promise they made repeatedly.

The leader of the opposition who spearheaded the no campaign has been called a fascist by his peers. And once commented that if elected he would do away with parliament and elections if he could.

It doesn't matter. 63% support among indigenous folks is still a landslide.

You're not arguing in good faith though. Accusing someone of racism like that. So you can go fuck yourself for all I care.

80% indigenous support polled prior to the campaigns starting. After a relentless campaign of misinformation courtesy of Murdoch. The actual number that voted yes was 63%.

In regional Aus, there is a popular, free-to-air, 24/7 Murdoch-run news outlet, Sky News Australia, not to be confused with Sky News. It is right of Fox News, closer to OAN.

Yeah, usually if I get stuck in my head I'll just go work in the garden. Bit of sunshine and toil usually gets me unstuck.

The rule for all memes like this:

If you're like "yeah I sometimes do that," then you're likely just a normie. If you do stuff like this all the time, every time, well, maybe...

I can't say shit about my full set of motivations without breaking NDAs and doxxing myself unfortunately.

But Australia is worse off environmentally than the public knows. And so many of us that worked in environmental analysis for big engineering firms, which are contracted by government, defence and so on, are gagged.

When people try to blow the whistle, they are put into lengthy court battles which they never win.

I worked on a project a few years ago around water theft, one of the other attached contractors had an analyst go to the media, blowing the lid off the scope of the issue. I have no idea what happened to her exactly, but I know they buried her in court.

I'm moving to Canada, but more to be with friends, and spend the rest of my thirties and onwards enjoying my life. My twenties were brutal, I'm 35 and I've never had a holiday. I've been an activist for twenty years in Aus as well, this referendum and the result are painful.

This, for instance, is in actuality a much more pressing issue than this 2017 article portrays.

You never see these pricks on the street. Fucking turn up in Melbourne and let the Sharpies sort 'em out.

I remember filling these cunts in when I was in my twenties. Big ups to the next generation, you have your work cut out. Happy to see ranks growing.

Over 63% of indigenous people voted in favour of the voice.

You are repeating propoganda.

Australia is way more racist than the US. And more right-wing.

The US just doesn't have compulsory voting, which means a minority of nutjobs can dictate politics. And even then, Trump lost.

Australia has compulsory voting and voted this way lol.

US is going through a labour organising revolution right now. While unions are left in the cold and experience dwindling power in Aus, even with the Labor party in power.
