Some interesting data analysis here. I’ll pose the same question as the author:

…by majority vote, Australians have made clear that a constitutionally enshrined Voice to Parliament is not how they want to respond to these crises.
An urgent question emerges — what is?

    I’m from the states and I’m not trying to be a dick but Australians think of their country as a player in the great games of statehood? Like… how? Is it because y’all speak English, too? Because America has that spy base in the middle of y’all’s desert?

    There are more than a few cities that have a higher population than your entire country.

      Australians are profoundly simple. Go through this thread and take a look at all the nit-picking around our ‘totally not racist’ claims; it basically boils down to “we let wealthy people come here so we can racially vilify them for political expedience”.

      more then 60% of the country just voted along purely racist lines. we are racist, very racist. people coming here should be forewarned.
