If you were ally enough to vote Yes’, then there’s a few things you can do now.
1. Listen to Aboriginal people.
2. Get that this isn’t about you.
3. The hand-wringing surprise that Australia is racist is insulting. We’ve said it for years. Stop denying, and work to change it.
i think you should be able to hold up a little card when you’re about to say a word that you’ve only read before out loud for the first time. and nobody is allowed to make fun of you
@DrSueMoss I read this earlier this morning before taking a walk on Hamilton Island. Spotted this at the halfway point. It will be a tense return journey
Awful. Awful way to die. The anxiety they must have had getting on to it in the first place. The noises the vessel inevitably made before it tore apart. The families not knowing what happened, and may never truly know.
Those poor migrants. They only wanted a better life.
Tomorrow is not #HarmonyDay, it is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination… harmony day was created so ppl could pretend that there is no racism in Australia - eg ‘we don’t have any racial discrimination to eliminate, so we can just celebrate harmony’.
We will say it again.
@AlexHawkeMP you have the power to free the refugees held at Park Hotel Prison.
9 years already lost
We are ready to help every one of these men find accommodation. We will provide them with food and aid.
All you need to do is free them.

We’ve got Djokovic supporters on the left and refugee advocates on the right.
One Djokovic supporter just said to me “I feel so ignorant. I came here for him, and find out they’ve been locked up nine years. It’s so wrong.”
in some ways this latest COVID wave feels the most depressing, as it's genuinely hard to tell what we're even reaching for anymore. everything feels simultaneously accessible and irresponsible, and you don't feel 100% good about any choice
Hollywood Blvd, Saturday, 11:22 AM:
ANTI-VAXX PROTESTER: Do you see all of these homeless people around. Are they dead in the street with COVID? Hell no. Why?
HOMELESS PERSON (walking by): Because I’m vaccinated you dumb fuck.
