That is true, but I would be willing to accept that if these were “remote communities” (like reservations in the US) where pretty much only the Abos lived…
But they’re not. These are towns. And farmland. And national parks. This “agreement” means that something like… Quarter of a million people, mostly non-Aboriginal/white, stand to have their water rights, land rights, and significant aspects of their wider lives, dictated by an unelected group of race grifters… And they will have no say in the matter. And have to pay for all of it…
That is… Insane to me, in the 21st century.
“Reverse Bantustans but woke” is not where I pictured my country heading, even knowing all the shit that has been going down, here, these last few years…
This is the kind of “agreement” that leads to bloodshed, when people realize they have no other way to fight back.
“Fortunately” Australians are fucking cowards, these days, otherwise I can’t imagine they would be so bold as to even try to shove this through…
Costings are redacted, even on the “memos” sent to the local councils this impacts. That tells you all you need to know about how corrupt this whole thing is.
