@FoxNews @grok, is this likely going to be over soon looking at the way things are?

[Dr Tracy Westerman AM @TracyWesterman]

After a long campaign I feel for our country today. I have regularly asked myself what are “no voters” celebrating. What in their minds is being achieved for our most disadvantaged & vulnerable Australians.
I have not been able to get an answer to that from any no voter which doesn’t find it’s place in fear, hate, anger.
And that just makes me sad.

Inclined to vote No? Read this. I dare you…

[Bernard Keane @BernardKeane]

The No camp says a Voice to Parliament will be "divisive".
That's code for "a threat to white privilege".
And it's hilarious coming from people who make a living from peddling division.

Minority groups are the only people who are always held accountable as a collective group for the actions of individuals or minorities within minority groups….

No one really cared while Gaza’s Palestinans were subjected to a blockade imposed by Israel that denied them the essentials of life. The few dozen Israelis being held hostage by Hamas fighters pale in comparison with the two million Palestinians held hostage by Israel in an open-air prison for nearly two decades.

No one really cared when it emerged that Gaza’s Palestinians had been put on a “starvation diet” by Israel – only limited food was allowed in, calculated to keep the population barely fed.

No one really cared when Israel bombed the coastal enclave every few years, killing many hundreds of Palestinian civilians each time. Israel simply called it “mowing the lawn”. The destruction of vast areas of Gaza, what Israeli generals boasted of as returning the enclave to the Stone Age, was formalised as a military strategy known as the “Dahiya doctrine“.

No one really cared when Israeli snipers targeted nurses, youngsters and people in wheelchairs who came out to protest against their imprisonment by Israel. Many thousands were left as amputees after those snipers receivedorders to shoot the protesters indiscriminately in the legs or ankles.

Western concern at the deaths of Israeli civilians at the hands of Palestinian fighters is hard to stomach. Have not many hundreds of Palestinian children died over the past 15 years in Israel’s repeated bombing campaigns on Gaza? Did their lives not count as much as Israeli lives – and if not, why not?

What about the Palestinian Australian community mourning their loved ones? What about the decades upon decades of human rights violations against Palestinian people? I am disgusted at both state and federal Labor Governments for their actions in relation to this.

The no campaign is working with companies that appear to specialise in conservative Christian campaigning, including a US-headquartered marketing and fundraising firm that aims to help Christian nonprofit ministries “fulfill their mission”.

Lighting up the Opera House sails in the colours of Israel??? Why are we taking sides? This is not a new “war.” This is decades unresolved.

[Terferatu Pronouns In Bio @terferatu]

Due to being called a pedo and a rapist, among other nice things, for being a trans ally, I've decided that unfortunately I don't give a fuck and will continue being an ally. Sorry terfs. You're irrelevant to me.

Let's end the delusion that a different referendum -- less ambitious or differently worded or timed -- would have been more successful.
The racism, indifference to First Peoples, the right-wing elite funding, the ignorance were ALWAYS going to come out

It’s truly disgusting how much effort, how many lies, how much money is being expended to prevent an advisory body…
Imagine fighting this hard to *not want to hear* a voice from the most disadvantaged people here.
Please, #VoteYes.
