When one individual doesn’t make or even begin to represent history and denies the reality of the racial experience of whole generations of people she’s chosen by the LNP as their representative and promoted to a White audience by Peter Dutton as being the REAL representative of Australia’s Aboriginal peoples .  Price was selectively chosen to be the “Avenging Angel” listened to at the expense of hundreds of Indigenous persons elected as representatives who came together to discuss debate and work on for years to arrive at the consensus came to be known as the Uluru Statement. When Jacinta Price speaks at CPAC or the Press Club we are witnessing exactly what Marcia Langton said was the truth. That the logic of their argument was basically racist or plain stupid.

What we are witnessing is the same logic applied when there’s a 97% consensus among Climate scientists about the reality of man-made Climate Change that the 3% of corrupt deniers get as much if not more publicity than the scientists. Paid puppets of the Murdoch media and the IPA, like Andrew Bolt, are promoted as “experts” in publications telling Australians for years that the planet was cooling. The investment by a concentrated mainstream media in presenting the argument of “don’t know vote No” for as one advocating basic human rights and unifying when history and social metrics clearly say otherwise is absurd. Then broadcasting “Yes” to be divisive and reverse racist beggar’s belief. However, when analyzed and push comes to shove that is as Marcia Langton says the publicity being given to the absurdity of the systemic racist logic that we have all lived with these past 240 years but only some of us have in the main Indigenous Australians have lived lived.

It’s the same argument imported direct from America today by Trumpists and neo-Nazis and Christian Nationalists who like Jacinta Price say “slavery was good for the African Americans” and their experience today is their Lifestyle Choice

This is what Peter Dutton gets from making Jacinta Nampijinpa Price the Coalition’s Indigenous spokeswoman: a weaponised conservative woman who can say things out loud that white conservatives haven’t dared to say since the early 1960s.

Price’s comment conveniently ignored the fact that colonisation to many Aboriginal people, unlike convicts who might have been flogged but eventually got tickets of leave, meant starvation through the loss of hunting grounds, loss of life through massacre by guns and poison, mass deaths through imported disease, and last-chance survival in mission stations where traditional culture and language were often forbidden and families were broken apart.

The idea that the resulting trauma did not flow through generations to the present day is poppycock.
