"Today—almost everything you and I believe in is under attack." Andrew Hastie, Member for Canning. Shadow Defence Minister

True.

Why?

"I left school very anxious, very nervous, very depressed and sad," Rockwell, now 29, recently told the New York Post. “I saw everything through the lens of oppression and bias and victim hood. I came to the school as someone who saw everyone equally. I left looking for injustice wherever I could and automatically assuming that all White men were sexist. My thoughts were no longer my own."(Wallace, 2022)

The age of the oxymoron Progressive Socialist Freedom! Apologitica! has proved itself “naïve” (German Chancellor Olaf Scholz) where every oppression, every inequity, every environmental hazard is identified, culpability sheeted home to their own biology/culture ideology. Culminating with derision-exclusion of any intellectual, ordinary citizen daring to challenge these post-modern, post-colonial, dialectic materialist web weaving abstract fanatics, thereby leaving the cognitive-emotional-knowledge field of indoctrination of the unasked question to reinforce the paradigm to the exclusion of the not to be asked question to challenge paradigms the hallmark of a Wisdom.

Friedrich Nietzsche would possibly determine dialectic materialism and dialectic emotionalism “hope-love against hate”, “kindness and compassion” against meanness and heartlessness are the same, “will to power”, as a struggle for resources, power to control. Each of the supposed emotional opposites are at their core the same “hope-love” is hate of the opposing political paradigm, “kindness and compassion” is a meanness and heartlessness utilised against those existing in an opposing political paradigm. It has nothing to do with hope, love, kindness, compassion, dignity, freedom(no such thing) it is to do with generating a facade to fool the fools they are on the side of all these wonderful cliches and if not they are the antithesis.

There is no limit to the cost incurred if hope, love, kindness, compassion, dignity, reverence, freedom are to be realised and if there are costs economic, social they will at worst be equalled by positive returns, this we are assured despite the pain will be worthy of the sacrifice.

If you object, and you need to see an unbiased as possible analysis of the potential outcomes the input variables upon which these policy claims base their assumptions, and the economic social cost/benefit effect upon other facets of policy, i.e. continuing affordability, labour, capital, infrastructure, debt, debt servicing, crime, terror, potholes within other policy areas, if this is at all possible, and if subsequently you determine it’s a disastrous policy, blaspheme against progress-modern, given the current progressive socialist conflict resolution method you may find yourself your group silenced, utilising a twitter term shadowed, or possibly lose your livelihood, you’re friends.

The whole point is to manufacture a herd mentality, no one wants by choice to be alone, fear works, and the good are so good at engendering fear from their towering pulpits, “phobia, hate, meanness, heartlessness, non-progressive, non-modern!” Yet the Labor victory over lack of knowing the full implications of policy settings regards how energy prices were to fall significantly despite the Labor stated intent to invest heavily in renewable energy and not invest in securing the supply of oil and coal, not informing citizens of the return of participants in terror-genocide putting them straight into the Australian communities streets, was achieved as research has shown in the main by engendering hate against one man Scott Morrison, Trotsky would be so lucky.

Elon Musk slams New York Times for its silence on Twitter censorship report, By Mary Kay Linge, December 3, 2022

Socialists love a show trial, and even better whipping up a witch burning in the town square, at the forefront with their burning torches, pitch forks and knitting. Such are Labor’s principled leadership. I was heartened to see Scott Morrisons colleagues, except one, give deserved support. With smoke burning in their eyes the Australian people placed their trust in a progressive socialist ventriloquist dummy, such is Democracy, and Democracy is indeed precious so long as dissent is heard not silenced.

““We control visibility quite a bit. And we control the amplification of your content quite a bit,” Weiss quoted an unnamed Twitter engineer as saying. “And normal people do not know how much we do.”

Twitter had ‘secret blacklists’ to limit users, journalist claims, Al Jazeera, 9 Dec 2022

One must look at what has happened to Twitter with the silencing of dissenting voices in a Democracy by supposed Democrats. Citizen blasphemers who dare to challenge progressive socialist paradigms, determined as phobic, prejudiced, hateful, mean, heartless. Silenced in the West not by a sword, not yet, but threatened and actualised deviance labelling, rejection, isolation, removal of means of living, criminalisation, and if the law does not allow utilisation of coercive vilification in the town square and a few taps on a keyboard. Tranquillity of Silence.

Indeed Chris Bowen the Opposition may be "hypocrites" but it does not mean the paradigm you are utilising is not riven with dangerous anomolies which you have ignored to repeat a tragic mistake as it will indeed become. 

“Scientists do not question the paradigm. They teach their students how to act according to it, and challenging it is considered a challenge to rationality itself. Rationality, Kuhn argues, exists only within the paradigm. Because the paradigms tells us what is real and how it works, to question the paradigm is to question the structure of the world itself, according to those within the paradigm that leads to nonsense, to think about the paradigm rather than through the paradigm is not to engage in science but philosophy.

Occasionally, however, anomalies pop-up..."

"The use of force and violence is more commonplace and prevalent in some families, communities, religions, cultural/ethnic groups and societies based on the views and values about adult prerogatives with children espoused. They may also be based upon the sociopathy of the perpetrators."
Treatment of Complex Trauma Courtois/Ford 2016

“Cultural and social norms are highly influential in shaping individual behaviour, including the use of violence. Norms can protect against violence, but they can also support and encourage the use of it. For instance, cultural acceptance of violence, either as a normal method of resolving conflict or as a usual part of rearing a child, is a risk factor for all types of interpersonal violence. It may also help explain why countries experiencing high levels of one type of violence also experience increased levels of other types. Social tolerance of violent behaviour is likely learned in childhood, through the use of corporal punishment or witnessing violence in the family, in the media or in other settings.”
'Changing cultural and social norms that support violence', World Health Organization 2009

"The culture in which one is immersed influences how one behaves towards others on all levels: and individual to another individual, as members of a group towards members of another group, as an individual or group member to the institutionalised social will. Implicit default assumptions about others influence individual cultural worldviews and habit which in turn shape the culture of child rearing that adults provide influencing the next generation and so on."

"Results indicated that low maternal care was significantly associated with greater total callous-unemotional traits (CU) traits and uncaring and callousness dimensions, even after controlling for the effects of various types of childhood abuse and neglect. Furthermore, there was a significant interaction between CU traits and care, such that aggression was highest among youths scoring high on CU traits who were exposed to low levels of maternal care. These findings draw attention to the importance of maternal bonding to CU traits and related aggressive behaviors among antisocial youth."

"In the Qur’an, Allah is described as ‘merciful’ and ‘compassionate’. Why do we find no reflection of that among jihadis who claim to struggle in his name? Jihadis only possess a pseudo sense of empathy. They may appear to be empathic but it is a narcissistic empathy, for they are only empathic within their own group; it does not extend anywhere into their external world as evidenced by their murderous destructive behaviors.[1] Their stoic, dissociated affect shows neither compassion nor remorse as their fellow brethren engage in wanton beheadings and executions. In shame honor societies where children are humiliated and laughed at for having feelings and emotionality, it is no wonder that the capacity for empathy did not develop during their early years. Research by neuroscientists and mental health experts has shown strong links between violence and early childhood."

"Culture is critical in shaping the manner in which people perceive, evaluate, and choose options for dealing with conflict. Conflict resolution, as a cultural phenomenon, is highly connected with and dependent on a society’s relevant norms, practices, and institutions.

This fact becomes ever more important when people from different ethnic, religious, racial, and social backgrounds attempt to solve their conflicts."

“It seemed that rebellion must have an unassailable base, something guarded not merely from attack, but from fear of it: ... The few ... Granted mobility, security (in the form of denying targets to the enemy), time, and doctrine (the idea to convert every subject to friendliness), victory will rest with the insurgents, for the algebraical factors are in the end decisive, and against them perfections of means and spirit struggle quite in vain.

"Despite deeply conservative and gendered regulation, brutal violence, and widespread coverage of the group’s use of rape, more than 600 women have left Western countries to join Daesh. Researchers explain this recruitment primarily through women’s desire for romantic adventure, deception on social media, and anti-Western sentiment spurred by discrimination and violence in their home states. Using an original dataset of social media activity from seventeen Western female recruits between 2011-2015, we evaluate these arguments and offer a new explanation centered on a religious and political ideology that necessitates a physical hijra (migration) to Iraq or Syria. We find consistent evidence that anti-Western sentiment and ideological commitment drive women’s migration. This finding has valuable implications for counterterrorism policy and security studies, which tend to treat women’s mobilization as separate from general extremism. Our findings suggest female recruits should be taken seriously as motivated insurgents intent on establishing an Islamic caliphate."

"This referendum is not about what politicians do or don't think, it's about the Australian people. And I have faith in the Australian people." Linda Burney, Minister for Indigenous Australians, VOICE
(source: Twitter, Senator Jana Stewart, @JanaStewartVIC, 5:50 PM Dec 4, 2022)

People are Politics, Politics are People. Politics-People are all about doing or not doing. To claim anything else whilst promoting a political paradigm is pure dissimulation of a biology/culture ideology bent on increasing its Freedom (relative independence) to take from other citizens via institutionalised power to affect policy which necessarily impacts on all Australian people. Otherwise, why do it?

A nation ceases to be a nation with divided sovereignty, which is divided loyalty, we are one nation, or we are two. And if two, one or the other cannot expect the other to support their existence, sovereignty means you are totally responsible for the welfare, sustenance of your own, otherwise it is not real or genuine; existing in name only an excuse to freeride on other citizens generated wealth.

No citizen individual or group in a Democracy should have a voice more powerful than any other individual or group. One voice, One vote, One equal power to influence the future of self, family, community and Nation. This is the meaning of Democracy one pebble each

Democracy is not two pebbles for those determined First and only one pebble for those determined Second. There is not First or Second in a Democracy. We cross the line together.

The VOICE will place an extra layer of burden, restriction on policy making across all levels of Government originating from a minority affecting the whole citizens capacity to maximise relative independence financially and socially at significant cost which would be better spent on fixing issues of gaps identified.

How can the Voice of the people responsible as a culture for informing significant negative education, health, violence and sexual predation outcomes by their own behaviour be trusted to realise their own culpability in these areas rather than other citizens, develop appropriate policy which does not fritter away other citizens wealth and avoid perpetuating the problems without external evaluation, demanding more and more resources.

“The place was all surrounded by bush, and hundreds of Gundagai aborigines used to camp close by. And well do I remember many of the fights in which they participated.

About the year 1850 a big battle took place just behind where the old brick mill on Morley’s Creek now stands. One morning we were awakened at daylight by piteous begging of a blackfellow to be let into our house. My husband gave him entry, and then he let a number of others in. They told us the Lachlan tribe had swooped down on them in the night, and had massacred some of the Gundagai tribe. The last black fellow to come in had a long spear sticking out of his stomach-and, really, I wasn’t sorry as he was a cheeky dangerous man. Next morning ??? went to see what the damage was, and found two blacks -Motogee and Mecky, dead while a large number were wounded. A number of gins were speared. One of them Kitty, escaped by swimming Morley’s Creek carrying her two piccaninnies, and […] the ??? Ark, which stood below where […]. The marauding band also speared dogs and did other damage. They took away with them the legs of the dead blackfellows, cutting the limbs off at the thigh. They also carried away the dead men’s kidney fat.

 […] After this slaughter the Gundagai blacks thirsted for revenge. They made elaborate preparations, and, leaving their gins behind, set out to pay back the debt they owed their Lachlan enemies. After being away some days, they returned laden with trophies of war-the most prized of which were the legs and kidney fat of some of their opponents. At night they made a big fire on the Flat, and roasted the flesh of the Lachlan victims, and partook of a cannibal feast.

The blacks never murdered any white folk. I recollect the last big fight between the tribes. An old man named Billy Pemberton was walking down our main street early one morning when a mob of strange blacks accosted him with, ‘’Where blackfellow camped?’’. Billy directed them the wrong way and ran and warned the local tribe. A lot of them raced to our place for shelter. My husband was away at the time-only myself and two babies were in the house. I let a couple of blackfellows in and they got under the bed. Others planted in the outhouse; in Turnbull’s store in Lindley's yard and one got under a cask. But he forgot his dog, which started scratching outside the barrel and when the “invaders” came along the dog's antics directed their attention to the barrel and they hauled out the planted man, and I don’t think there was an inch of his body into which they did not put spears.”

How can Australian citizens with aboriginal ancestry claim their significant negative behaviour-outcomes relative to other Australian citizens qualifies them in any way to dictate via significantly enhanced power to do so, effective policy affecting not only themselves but other citizens? Given they have not been able to do so already despite the very significant investment already made.

Where is the analysis-evidence education, health, violence and sexual predation arising from the behaviour of the very people who are informing this behaviour will be resolved by an extraordinary power available to no other citizens?

This cannot be done by Australian citizens of aboriginal ancestry alone because they are not paying for it themselves and secondly, they do not have the expertise and depths of institutional knowledge across all these areas to create effective policy themselves nor to implement and evaluate outcomes in a non-biased way.

Australian citizens of aboriginal ancestry have no right to demand a louder voice institutionalised in Government, meaning greater power than every other citizen, to affect their nations policy, resource distribution, future.

It is far better to act now to show the impossibility of the referendum succeeding, and if by image manipulation and continuing misrepresentation this is not about political power, and it were to succeed the permanent damage to our Democratic institutions by giving more weight to a select group of citizens over others will inevitably cause schism not harmony.

Utilise the saved millions in preventing the referendum from going ahead to address the issues together, as to do otherwise reinforces the nocuous first and second, them and us conflict, and justifies demands for the same power and equity by other citizens-groups in society suffering from the same problems in education, health, violence, and sexual predation. Worse, it sets a precedent for any minority group for whatever abstract invention to justifiably claim for themselves similar power.

If the VOICE succeeds it will be a malformation of Democracy, Australian democracy of equals ceases to exist.

I would not call objection to demanding a malformation of Democracy by a select group embedding extraordinary power in Government institutions, greater power than every other citizen pathetic, ugly, and racist, as it is a clear tawdry attempt to freeride on unearned power-wealth.

One can draw their own conclusion:
“This referendum is not about what politicians do or don't think.” Linda Burney, Minister for Indigenous Australians

Politics is a process by which mutually dependent individuals, groups seek resolve differences regards power relationships, distribution of resources, and social abstracts such as ideas, ideals, and principles to enable agreement, compromise to be achieved without the utilisation of force or coercion.

A referendum is a process by which citizens vote for or against a specific political proposition placed before the assembly of citizens by politicians who via a political process determine the nature of the question to be asked. In participating in a referendum citizens themselves are politicians as they are embedded in a political process in which they contribute to resolving the political differences inherent in the referendum question.

The quote “This referendum is not about what politicians do or don't think.” by Linda Burney, Minister for Indigenous Australians presupposes the cognitive knowledge interaction ‘thinking’ has no rightful place in a referendum process from beginning to end, where even a citizens attendance at a voting booth itself is necessarily a political action which must involve political thinking by each citizen in attendance, apart from a citizens public and private dialogue relating to the referendum question which would have to, one would think involve political thinking.

I feel more than uncomfortable at the thought of having such a lack of thinking in the leadership of a select group having more power than I or any other citizen to influence this Nations future.

Nor are my concerns amelorated as to the character and capability of those advancing self-interest over Democracy when they accuse fellow Australian citizens of Aboriginal ancestry of being "coconuts", "uncle Tom", "racist" against themselves, "Traitor".

Progressive socialist institutions such as Labor, Greens, ... do not strongly,  with moral indignation, condemn such Hate, this hypocrisy is the reason why reactive aggression is becoming a security issue in our streets. Social equilibrium does not have to be this costly.

Struggle for the heart of Democracy continues, let’s hope we do not rip it apart in the process. And mean time our enemies grow stronger as we spend time accusing each other of being the worst of humanity.
