if anyone is stupid enough to see this and think the voice means they will get kicked off beaches by aboriginals cause albanese gave them legal right to declare ownership of any lands they want...
they are deadset lost causes.
and to think the 'no' side keeps saying voting yes is 'divisive'
That's just it though, they know it's divisive, that's the point. They don't care if they're lying they just hope their lies spread to enough people.
Indigenous issues are pretty complex imo, so writing people off who are getting confused by the flood of BS seems like a good way of losing the referendum.
I agree we need to try, in my experience there's not a lot of fence sitters on this topic. people have made it about their "tribe" again and are happy to believe obvious lies because YES won't change their lives directly so they don't care
