    So why do you believe non-white people couldn’t possibly have “degrees and a fuckton of experience?”

      Because the people put into these Voice positions will be Elders of Indigenous communities.

      And since I personally worked on the 2013-16, $10M Indigenous communities research project for utilities connection and communication strategy, I know that 11% of the people in those communities are literate and the data point for tertiary-level education was so low it was rounded to 0.

      To communicate the process of utilities connection, it was determined to best use pictures, which is still the strategy today.

      Any more questions, hero?

        Ah, so it’s not that you’re racist because you believe indigenous people are inherently less capable, but instead that you’re racist because you see nothing wrong with perpetuating institutional racism. “Disadvantage must be maintained!” is your credo.

                lol. Not sure where the M:TG comment is coming from, but I assume you scoured this guy’s profile or something. The shit you’re into is just as nerdy (given a cursory look at your own profile) so you can fuck right off with that criticism. Please, go find a racist echo chamber where you can be praised for your ignorant vitriol, you sad, sad troll
