Think your vote mattered? Sorry, think again

How just a day later, the will of the people is being completely rejected

Yesterday we reported on Saturday’s national “referendum” result.

The people of Australia comprehensively said No to the government, the media, the big corporations, the big banks, the sporting clubs, and basically the entire establishment.

They defeated the proposal to divide the nation by race:

This was pure democracy in action.

The people of Australia expressed their free will in that holy cathedral of democracies, the voting booth.

They reconfirmed that it is they, and not the government, who have the final say in deciding how the country is run.

In other words, they exercised their VOICE.

Australians are proud to live in one of the world’s leading democratic countries.

But today, proud Australians who did their democratic duty by:

• following the debate;

• considering the issues;

• weighing all of the different arguments;

• listening to all of the various speakers;

• paying the huge taxpayer costs;

• getting themselves to the polling places;

• and putting up with all of the division and disruption and abuse

were surprised to see headlines like this:

Honestly. They’re saying it explicitly to us, right up in our faces:

Um. Wouldn’t that be like Arizona, Wyoming, and Montana saying they were no longer going to do what Washington, D.C. said?

In this case we’re talking about Victoria, Queensland, and South Australia.

As a reminder,

The citizens/residents/taxpayers/managers/owners of those states have just made the following democratic decisions on the proposal:

But all three states are doing it anyway.

So what in the hell is going on?

An article in the Australian Associated Press may provide us with an answer.

Those three states apparently do not have any Australians living in them.

Now this is starting to make sense.

There must be no Australians in these states, and that’s why there is *no obstacle*.

But we still have a few questions. The article says that state and territory leaders “plan to forge ahead with their own treaty”.

Q1: A treaty is a document signed between two nations. Have “state and territory leaders” formed their own nations? Because the one known as “Australia” has just completely rejected the treaty idea.

Q2: Will citizens of the nation of Queensland need passports to get into the nation of New South Wales? Were pandemic “border” closures simply a test run of this?

Final question: Silly “voter”, are you an obstacle…or are you an Australian?

We intend to remain both
