Racial Grievance Should Not be Permanently Codified

 Much of the support for the Voice - the proposal to insert an additional chapter in Australia's Constitution for setting up a new Aboriginal body to advise Parliament and the government - comes from a generalised sentiment that it's the morally right thing to do.

The Yes case rests essentially on the moral conviction that the Voice will entrench racial equality for Aborigines and the No case rests on the opposing principle that it will institutionalise inequality of citizenship in the Constitution.

Entrenching the Voice in the constitution is a cynical ploy to substitute symbolism for substance, to codify both an alibi for inaction on the government's part and the sense of grievance on the Aborigines' part.

What policy cannot be implemented or advisory body not created now by government without a constitutionally entrenched Voice? PM Albanese's inability and refusal to answer this simple question has been killing the Voice softly from poll to poll.

The Voice would vastly complicate Australia's challenge of effective and timely governance in the national interest for the common good.

The Canberra-based Commonwealth department supporting the Voice will depend for its continued existence on proving that the problem is not yet solved.

Denying Voice to Asian-Australians I commented previously on the coincidence of the Australian race-based Voice proposal with the US Supreme Court decision that struck down affirmative action in university admissions.

Instead, debate over the Voice has been bilateral despite the demographic reality being trilateral.

With near universal institutional support for the Voice - from the corporate, university, media, and sporting bodies - at a growing gulf with deplorables, among whom opposition to the Voice has been climbing steeply, trust in public institutions will fall even further.

One top-ranked university has advertised an "In-depth dialogue" on the Voice next month with the stated goal to cover "Diverse perspectives regarding the Voice Referendum." Yet every single one of the half-dozen speakers on the program is involved in the campaign on the Yes side.

To keep faith with Aborigines demanding a Voice with punch, he assures them it will be meaningful and substantive.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

James Ray Epps Breaks Federal Law Lying To FBI Agents, Again, In Never Before Released Leaked Audio: ‘You Are The Boss’

 The Gateway Pundit has obtained more leaked audio of James Ray Epps' providing materially false statements during an abnormally friendly interview with the Federal Bureau of Investigations about his role in the Capitol riot, a crime punishable by up to eight years in prison. Joined by his attorney John Blischak, a former FBI agent, and his wife Robyn Epps during a voluntary March 3, 2021 interview, Epps assured the feds while laughing and cracking jokes that he only traveled from Arizona to Washington, DC to protect his son James Ray Epps Jry and "Try to deescalate" a "Raging" crowd amid a terrorist attack he suspected would transpire involving a bomb. On the 8th, Epps insisted at least fourteen times that he only traveled to DC to "Try to calm them down." Conspicuously, in thousands of hours of January 6 footage, Epps is never seen with his son. Epps claimed Baked Alaska, who served 60 days in prison for protesting at the Capitol, was to blame for in...
