@@kimberleybushsuperfoods97 I dug a hole for one old man, sadness that old man had been an initiated man in that early time and then worked for Vesty's all his time as a stockman, then when he died, that wet season he was planted by we. Sadness that day.
Alright change the fucking record. We don’t want to hear about that aboriginal bullshit welcome to country. Ok? We have had a fucking gut full of this shit. You might have a pretty face but it doesn’t mean a thing.
Well you are on to it, as you should be I suppose given you have knowledge. Spiritism is a deep rooted thing that is intertwined in many cultures whether they are from antiquity or modern, it is very subtle! You put a good face to this, a pretty one too, keep it up.
100% honest. I grew up in the 70s. Had good aboriginal mates. Never saw any of this shit back then. We respected them and they respected us. No racism, just mates.
Yeah it was a great time growing up in this country in the 70s, Im as white as a bed sheet but I also had good Abbo mates Kenny & Syd and there was No Racism bullshit between us, we used to joke about and hang a bit of shit on each other but it was all good. Unlike all this crap of today you can’t say anything now unless someone is offended and it’s bloody White people in high places that have started this Bullshit.
There are people who are making a fortune out of the aboriginal industry, people like Linda Burney have never stepped foot in a remote community. All of them are against opening the books to find out where the hundreds of billions have gone.
I'm happy to pay 40 billion a year for a smoking ceremony and a welcome to my country. What else would the government spend our money on ? Mmm maybe gays, pedos and rapists ? I know let's have a referendum on it all.
Linda Burney did go to a remote community to get support for The Voice (may that episode never be raised again) dripping in Gucci. She stood out from the residential ladies in their modest dresses. I felt quite disgusted watching her.
Back in the 70s Linda did an interview with Andrew Bolt wanting to divide Australia into two aboriginal land as a country and us aussies would have to get an passport to enter their country.

As an ignorant 18 year old getting work with the travelling show back around 1989. I remember waking up one morning at Gunbalanya and smelling the cooking of meat. I walked down towards the delicious smells on the banks of the billabong and saw several aboriginal men sitting around a fire. I was hungry and when they noticed my presence without taking notice of my skin colour I was beckoned towards the fire and the gathering of men who had obviously hunted and therefore were cooking a delicious rock wallaby. I took the invitation and sat down with these local men and ate. I will never forget how much I felt like I belonged to our great country. 😎👍👊🇦🇺

And many of them ARE Aboriginals. They only want to grift the system, for personal gain. They don't give a damn about the people. Let's face it if Aboriganl people's problems were all solved, they wouldn't be about to grift any more money from the government (the taxpayers) to "fix" them.
Welcome to country means welcome to "my country" like you' having guest's into your back yard for a BBQ and saying welcome to my house (my country) it doesn't mean the whole country.

@@DaveMitchell-q7dyou do realise native title does not take anyone’s land away from them. If you own it, it’s yours. 😅 and majority of indigenous communities that are in built up areas only get nothing, some recognition at the most or non-exclusive benefits which means the land is still shared with the state and the public.

However that can never happen on someone’s private property.

Madison you are a bloody champion and it is refreshing to have someone speak the truth. I would like to see you in parliament to help your mob and work with Jacinta Price to cut the crap! Well done and keep speaking the truth.
Love your work Madison and i hope you have an eye on politics. Im a white fella, who was fortunate to have indigenous people married into my family. My grandmother was a prominant Noongar woman and she echoed much of what you have said. Her personal narrative was completely different to the mainstream narrative as well. We are all being fed BS because money has corrupted and people are selling out their true culture.. Keep up the good work 💪
Thank you Madison. I live in a remote indigenous community. Have done for over 20 years. I don’t work for the govt, unlike most white fellas. My black fella mates, are like you, honest. So often when indigenous propaganda is pumped thru the media, in our case a job site radio, the boys have a great laugh amongst themselves at the bullshit they’re hearing. The only way there will ever be true equality, is when people start being honest. I really hope people can hear what ur saying, and hopefully you can be a catalyst for that honesty. Arseholes and corruption exists in every culture. Same as great people exist in every culture. Thanks again mate 👍🎯🇦🇺
I am an indigenous Australian & so were my parents & my grandparents, yet we are not of Aboriginal descent. When i went to school, in the 1950s & 1960s, when English & grammar & punctuation were taught, the meaning of the word 'indigenous' was that you were born in the land in which you were living, or you were living in the land in which you were born. That is still its grammatically correct meaning. Now its politically correct meaning is that you have to be Aboriginal to be indigenous. When did it change & who changed it, on what or whose authority? As far as I am concerned & as far as reality is concerned, I am an indigenous Australian. If I am not indigenous to Australia, to what country am I indigenous, a country in which I was not born, or in all likelihood never even visited? The same goes for 'native' Australian. And another thing, they are not first nations people. They are not nations, they are tribes. Think about it. A more correct term would be 'first migrants'. Their ancestors migrated to this continent between 20,00 to 45,00 years ago. The continent of Australia was already here & had been for over 300 million years. What, are they saying that they 'owned' Australia before they even arrived, before there were any humans here? What a joke; what a lie!
And there were many people coming and going from what is now the island of Australia for a long long time... They talk about it like some group of 50 people set out from Africa and just walked non stop in one direction until they got to Australia and stayed there. 50,000 years ago there was people living in the north of Australia where you could travel to and from what is now Papua New guinea freely, it would have been all different islands back then. There were no borders, over a long period of time that water level would have risen and eventually some people were cut off from other people who they were probably distant or even close relatives of.
indigenous /ɪnˈdɪdʒɪnəs/ adjective adjective: indigenous; adjective: Indigenous 1. originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native. "coriander is indigenous to southern Europe" h Similar: native endemic local domestic h Opposite: non-native introduced imported 2. (of people) inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists. sorry sport, despite your beliefs, you're not indigenous
100% agree. To add weight to this argument, I'll paraphrase Noel Pearson. He pointed out that as the bones of our descendants accumulate in the dust of this continent, our family's to this country deepens and grows over generations. Pearson's point is about emotional and spiritual connected to this land, our country. The definition and application of the terms aboriginal and indigenous must be clarified in law. As for First Nations... you'll find them in Canada.
I'm in my 70s. My academic education started around the same time as you claim yours did. I teach English and still have my Collins school dictionary from the 60s. Indigenous - adjective 1. originating or occurring naturally in a particular place; native. "Potatoes are indigenous to Peru" 2. (of people) inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists Perhaps, in your English classes, you weren't listening as closely as you could/should have been. Or maybe age has 'faded' your memory. 🤔
Yes mate I agree we need more people to know this we've got both sides having ago at us what about the referendum I tell ya I can't stand that Labor party well none of them really
Dot painting started in the 1970’s in Papunya, a small Indigenous Australian community northwest of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. A school art teacher, Geoffrey Bardon, provided acrylic paints to the Elders, starting with a mural project, boards, and canvases.
You are one in a million, Madison. A breath of fresh air. I work for a woke government dept who had a man do a smoking ceremony for us. I have to admit I was underwhelmed, so I thought I would ask old mate a couple of questions. Turns out his line is from north Queensland and this ceremony took place in western Sydney… My first thought was “you should not be doing this, this is not your ancestral land”… obviously he got paid, but I can get more chat from a dead salmon than old mate.
I've been calling this BS for what it is for decades. Because I remember the invention of the fake tradition. I don't lie or accept lies to be popular. I love this country, the land and the honest people who call it home. I miss it when I'm overseas for too long. The space, the skies in all their moods, the rains when they come, the heat when it dwells, the smells of the dust and the smoke, the silence and the shrill calls of wildlife. I'm an immigrant from 1968. Sometimes I go back to the country of origin, but it doesn't feel quite like home. Dorothea Mackellar was onto something.
I ‘m not Aboriginal, I went to school in Victoria mid 60’s to mid 70’s and learnt even then that all of what I was taught about Aboriginal culture was from the Northern Territory. I point this out to people now that the didgeridoo and other aspects of Aboriginal life is not Australia wide. No one is interested or really believes what I am saying. Take a look at the Yoorrook Commission in Victoria livestream hearings it looks like some science fiction film set, it’s made up stuff. The commissioners are lawyers and social workers with limited experience lecturing the elected politicians who grovel at their feet. It truly is embarrassing. You are the future Madison!
I've never heard of the Yoorrook Commission so I googled some pics. A grey walled room with some kind of artwork that has been specifically lit to highlight it, animal pelts on chair backs and covering a circular table, some kind of native floral arrangement adorning all of the tables. It's all performative. How can it not be seen as embarrassing and somewhat inappropriate for the situation. I makes me think of how a primary school class might decorate their classroom to be Aboriginal themed. Throw in some didgeridoos and a boomerang and the look is complete. Perhaps some of that painted dot art. Fine for a classroom (though now it would be seen as either cultural appropriation or the reduction of a culture down to a few cliched tokens) not a much a political/legal setting.
I love Madison King... I am I white man from the NT (Tennant Creek) and what you say is true true and more true. Guess what I know nothing about the real culture 'cos the real people won't tell you but I have seen more fake corroborees put of for Tourists than you can poke stick at. And guess what I am 75 years and 5 years old and went to the NT. when I was 5 and in 70 years of actual aboriginal connection I never saw a smoking ceremony or a "welcome to country". and that is just for starters. Madison King needs more supporters. She is the real deal.
Interesting and very true what you said and makes 💯sense.The Aboriginal cause here in Australia has been used and abused for far too long and in the process the indigenous peoples have suffered catastrophically both spiritually,emotionally and financially 💪🏿
Absolutely correct. The government don't care about Aboriginal people, they are using them for a land grab which they have control over. The government have bought off the "purple circle" as Madison phrases it and the rest of them don't get a look in. I wonder how she feels about white people "identifying" as Aboriginals?
I know they make money from it but the far more sinister part is causing division between people. Care for each other and support each other. That’s what we need.
I don't know if you realise it Madison, but this video is doing more for reconciliation than any number disrespectful shows that are being forced on us. Most of us feel that we are being taken for fools and you've pretty much confirmed this. Much respect to you, you are opening the door for some genuine understanding.
I lost interest in reconciliation when after asking the local land council for advice about how to respectfully do an acknowledgement of country for a kids footy match, their advice was that wasn’t appropriate and a local elder instead should do a welcome to country, $250 for five minutes. For a kids footy match…..forget it.
This is why we need more genuine aboriginal voices in parliament who come from the land and aren't all about cash. This yankvillian style woke division needs to be stopped
If anyone hadnt noticed, we are also now using terms like "First Nations" When back in the 90's Elders got Eddie Marbo to announce that "Aborigine" was what they wanted to be known as because Aboriginal is a dictionary term that could apply to anyone of any country, not a discription of a race. Now we are back to no description, no identity, just descriptions used as tools to manipulate people. And now apparantly you are racist if you say Aborigine, when you were asked to do exactly that in the past. How pathetic is it what a whole race is used as a tool to virtue signal how special politicians are. Politicians drop the ball over and over, place blame on average Australians who have zero power over anything but their own lives.
There are still people in this country who think that men are superior to women. Compare this lady to Elbow and Bowen and most of our politicians. She is way ahead of them. She is great.
My best Mate when I was in the army was aboriginal and you’re 100% right and it’s a bloody shame on what has happened to aboriginal language and culture. And I’m white and have spent half my life working out in the bush and have made some lifelong friendships with aboriginals. Well said young lady 👍
It's all about the money, capitalised entertainment. Interesting comment on the dying language. Very sad this is happening, the culture is disappearing. All for the cashish, stepping on their OWN family all the way to the bank.
So good hearing the original truth on these matters. Just hope the "Purple Circle" and the misguided majority of the people who are perpetuating these miss truths wake up and back off. It is making Australians divisive and jeopardising any hope of Harmony.
Madison King and Jacinta Price both deserve recognition as erudite, proper spokespeople for aboriginal Australians well ahead of Albo and Linda Burnie's pal,, Thommo the Phillipino Commo, or Pommy Bruce or Pommy Lydia..
@@stilllearning1160 tbh it's going to be a price we have all have to be willing to pay. If lots of corners are shining perhaps we can slow down the rot for our children's sake.
Im a part blackfella and I think this BS about Welcome to Australia is something Albo help start and promote, the tax payer is putting up thousands of dollars for every one of these BS ceremony.
We don’t make a mockery out of it. The Aboriginal corporations do. Well done Madison, this is how we bring the communities together while they divide us for money. It’s all about grifting the Australian taxpayer for the few.
I’m a Christian, I love all people, my grandson attends a Kinda in Victoria and has to repeat a aboriginal pledge to country every time he’s there, thanks for opening my eyes to the spiritual side of this.
Thankyou Madison for this truth telling. I'm in my mid-60's and have first cousins who are Aborigines. Their mother, my Auntie, is a full blood Aborigine. She is quiet and shy, except around family. When she speaks you're glued to her voice, her words, her truths. She speaks with such dignity and with no padding. When asked about all this welcome to country and smoking ceremonies and utters two words ''NO GOOD.'' No more needed.
Well said Madison . I’m half cast on my father’s side but let’s call a spade a spade , I’m a white fella, I don’t pretend to be or know about aboriginal customs and ways. It’s refreshing to hear the truth you speak . I never understood where this suddenly came from ? All these politicians with absolutely no idea what they talking about as usual their ignorance is overwhelming. Keep speaking the truth the truth will set you free 🙏🏻

Love your work Madison and i hope you have an eye on politics.
Im a white fella, who was fortunate to have indigenous people married into my family. My grandmother was a prominant Noongar woman and she echoed much of what you have said. Her personal narrative was completely different to the mainstream narrative as well. We are all being fed BS because money has corrupted and people are selling out their true culture.. Keep up the good work 💪
They'll still call her a racist, bunch of hypocrites! People don't like to hear the truth, it hurts them too much.
For god sake put this girl into government, this girl is bloody legend
Bloody wow. Down to earth truthful person and smoking hot.🇦🇺
Settle down
@@Docfisher1 I’m good.lol.
How have I not heard of this person before? Amazing sensible, articulate views that correlate with what I've heard from others.
Thank you Madison. I live in a remote indigenous community. Have done for over 20 years. I don’t work for the govt, unlike most white fellas. My black fella mates, are like you, honest. So often when indigenous propaganda is pumped thru the media, in our case a job site radio, the boys have a great laugh amongst themselves at the bullshit they’re hearing. The only way there will ever be true equality, is when people start being honest. I really hope people can hear what ur saying, and hopefully you can be a catalyst for that honesty. Arseholes and corruption exists in every culture. Same as great people exist in every culture. Thanks again mate 👍🎯🇦🇺
Good on ya Madison . Nicely said
I am an indigenous Australian & so were my parents & my grandparents, yet we are not of Aboriginal descent. When i went to school, in the 1950s & 1960s, when English & grammar & punctuation were taught, the meaning of the word 'indigenous' was that you were born in the land in which you were living, or you were living in the land in which you were born. That is still its grammatically correct meaning. Now its politically correct meaning is that you have to be Aboriginal to be indigenous. When did it change & who changed it, on what or whose authority? As far as I am concerned & as far as reality is concerned, I am an indigenous Australian. If I am not indigenous to Australia, to what country am I indigenous, a country in which I was not born, or in all likelihood never even visited? The same goes for 'native' Australian. And another thing, they are not first nations people. They are not nations, they are tribes. Think about it. A more correct term would be 'first migrants'. Their ancestors migrated to this continent between 20,00 to 45,00 years ago. The continent of Australia was already here & had been for over 300 million years. What, are they saying that they 'owned' Australia before they even arrived, before there were any humans here? What a joke; what a lie!
And there were many people coming and going from what is now the island of Australia for a long long time... They talk about it like some group of 50 people set out from Africa and just walked non stop in one direction until they got to Australia and stayed there. 50,000 years ago there was people living in the north of Australia where you could travel to and from what is now Papua New guinea freely, it would have been all different islands back then. There were no borders, over a long period of time that water level would have risen and eventually some people were cut off from other people who they were probably distant or even close relatives of.

2.
(of people) inhabiting or existing in a land from the earliest times or from before the arrival of colonists.
sorry sport, despite your beliefs, you're not indigenous
100% agree. To add weight to this argument, I'll paraphrase Noel Pearson. He pointed out that as the bones of our descendants accumulate in the dust of this continent, our family's to this country deepens and grows over generations. Pearson's point is about emotional and spiritual connected to this land, our country.
The definition and application of the terms aboriginal and indigenous must be clarified in law. As for First Nations... you'll find them in Canada.
I'm in my 70s.
My academic education started around the same time as you claim yours did.
I teach English and still have my Collins school dictionary from the 60s.
Indigenous - adjective

Perhaps, in your English classes, you weren't listening as closely as you could/should have been.
Or maybe age has 'faded' your memory. 🤔
@@didge110
👍 Even though wheat and sheep have been farmed and interbred in Aus since early settlement - they're not indigenous to the land. 👍
Great to see your putting it straight
Maddison
@@GordonNorrisJackNorris bloody over it
Yes mate I agree we need more people to know this we've got both sides having ago at us what about the referendum I tell ya I can't stand that Labor party well none of them really
Dot painting started in the 1970’s in Papunya, a small Indigenous Australian community northwest of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. A school art teacher, Geoffrey Bardon, provided acrylic paints to the Elders, starting with a mural project, boards, and canvases.
Yeah, I commented the same. It's made-up bullshit.
Exactly
Wrong! Another lie!
You are one in a million, Madison. A breath of fresh air. I work for a woke government dept who had a man do a smoking ceremony for us. I have to admit I was underwhelmed, so I thought I would ask old mate a couple of questions. Turns out his line is from north Queensland and this ceremony took place in western Sydney… My first thought was “you should not be doing this, this is not your ancestral land”… obviously he got paid, but I can get more chat from a dead salmon than old mate.
keep up the good work young lady . we need more people like you in this country
An educated young lady with the guts to stand up and call out the bullshit Well said and keep up the good work 👍
Love you Madison, we need to be the voice for our children as we’ve all been lied to. Mel ❤️💫
@@awakenedwomenscollective6690 🌸❤️
Thanks Babe...! You do great work...! Makes me Proud to be here in this Land...! Keep on exposing the Truth...
Exactly right - if you let a lie go on for long enough it becomes accepted as the truth.
You need to be on team with Jacinta.
Cute, informed and honest.
Many thanks.
Love your insights Madison.
I've been calling this BS for what it is for decades. Because I remember the invention of the fake tradition. I don't lie or accept lies to be popular.
I love this country, the land and the honest people who call it home. I miss it when I'm overseas for too long. The space, the skies in all their moods, the rains when they come, the heat when it dwells, the smells of the dust and the smoke, the silence and the shrill calls of wildlife.
I'm an immigrant from 1968. Sometimes I go back to the country of origin, but it doesn't feel quite like home.
Dorothea Mackellar was onto something.
Jacinta when you get in you have to employ this young women she is an ambassador to common sense
I ‘m not Aboriginal, I went to school in Victoria mid 60’s to mid 70’s and learnt even then that all of what I was taught about Aboriginal culture was from the Northern Territory. I point this out to people now that the didgeridoo and other aspects of Aboriginal life is not Australia wide. No one is interested or really believes what I am saying. Take a look at the Yoorrook Commission in Victoria livestream hearings it looks like some science fiction film set, it’s made up stuff. The commissioners are lawyers and social workers with limited experience lecturing the elected politicians who grovel at their feet. It truly is embarrassing. You are the future Madison!
I've never heard of the Yoorrook Commission so I googled some pics. A grey walled room with some kind of artwork that has been specifically lit to highlight it, animal pelts on chair backs and covering a circular table, some kind of native floral arrangement adorning all of the tables. It's all performative. How can it not be seen as embarrassing and somewhat inappropriate for the situation. I makes me think of how a primary school class might decorate their classroom to be Aboriginal themed. Throw in some didgeridoos and a boomerang and the look is complete. Perhaps some of that painted dot art. Fine for a classroom (though now it would be seen as either cultural appropriation or the reduction of a culture down to a few cliched tokens) not a much a political/legal setting.
I love Madison King... I am I white man from the NT (Tennant Creek) and what you say is true true and more true. Guess what I know nothing about the real culture 'cos the real people won't tell you but I have seen more fake corroborees put of for Tourists than you can poke stick at. And guess what I am 75 years and 5 years old and went to the NT. when I was 5 and in 70 years of actual aboriginal connection I never saw a smoking ceremony or a "welcome to country". and that is just for starters. Madison King needs more supporters. She is the real deal.
I always knew it was a piss take, good on you Lass for exposing the bulltish.
The BS is exposed daily. But it persists
Yeah can tell off the bat it's a piss take. By how commercial it is.
Interesting and very true what you said and makes 💯sense.The Aboriginal cause here in Australia has been used and abused for far too long and in the process the indigenous peoples have suffered catastrophically both spiritually,emotionally and financially 💪🏿
Absolutely correct. The government don't care about Aboriginal people, they are using them for a land grab which they have control over. The government have bought off the "purple circle" as Madison phrases it and the rest of them don't get a look in. I wonder how she feels about white people "identifying" as Aboriginals?
I know they make money from it but the far more sinister part is causing division between people. Care for each other and support each other. That’s what we need.
I don't know if you realise it Madison, but this video is doing more for reconciliation than any number disrespectful shows that are being forced on us. Most of us feel that we are being taken for fools and you've pretty much confirmed this. Much respect to you, you are opening the door for some genuine understanding.
Preach Sister..
Thanks for standing up for principles, Keep on talking and everyone else will soon follow. Thank you.
I lost interest in reconciliation when after asking the local land council for advice about how to respectfully do an acknowledgement of country for a kids footy match, their advice was that wasn’t appropriate and a local elder instead should do a welcome to country, $250 for five minutes. For a kids footy match…..forget it.
@@matt-df3xc WTH 🤦🏼♀️ shame job
This is why we need more genuine aboriginal voices in parliament who come from the land and aren't all about cash.
This yankvillian style woke division needs to be stopped
If anyone hadnt noticed, we are also now using terms like "First Nations" When back in the 90's Elders got Eddie Marbo to announce that "Aborigine" was what they wanted to be known as because Aboriginal is a dictionary term that could apply to anyone of any country, not a discription of a race.
Now we are back to no description, no identity, just descriptions used as tools to manipulate people. And now apparantly you are racist if you say Aborigine, when you were asked to do exactly that in the past.
How pathetic is it what a whole race is used as a tool to virtue signal how special politicians are. Politicians drop the ball over and over, place blame on average Australians who have zero power over anything but their own lives.
Yes, and they have copied/stolen this from the Canadian Indians.
Thank goodness for you. I’m a pommy migrant…. and bloody grateful to be in this country. A voice of reason.
Welcome! LOL just kidding mate!
We need more people like you in our society . You and Jacinta are great examples for your culture
There are still people in this country who think that men are superior to women. Compare this lady to Elbow and Bowen and most of our politicians. She is way ahead of them. She is great.
As a proud Australian I agree and respect everything you said.
I am, you are, we are.
Everyone in Australia needs to listen to this lovely lady for her truth telling 😊
Beautifully said. I have called it out for the racket it is. So the rich get richer and the ones who should never get it.
Keep telling it like it is.
We need you as our PM. No bullshit, saying it how it is, and actually caring about people!
Your a true lady , I’m proud to be a part of this human race with you living in this country,
I turn my back to the divisive crap, they should be thanking us for building this country
I see a great leader in the making with this young lady. Keep up the good work. Thank you for disturbing the mindless and the ignorant with the truth.
It's been said ,the truth will set you free.
The truth will also sort out the facts from the bullshit.
Gee you are so right keep talking the truth your a very good speaker keep it up 🇦🇺👍
Kia ora Madison, I'm a maori, and I love your work. All day everyday.
Thankyou from my whole family. The BLAK movement has disgraced us and made us a product. Go get em, chick. Finally, a truth teller.
If you pay me the same money I'll dance around parliament clapping two sticks!
I'll be the smoking machine.
I'll do it for half price.
Let the bidding war begin.
My best Mate when I was in the army was aboriginal and you’re 100% right and it’s a bloody shame on what has happened to aboriginal language and culture. And I’m white and have spent half my life working out in the bush and have made some lifelong friendships with aboriginals. Well said young lady 👍
It's all about the money, capitalised entertainment. Interesting comment on the dying language. Very sad this is happening, the culture is disappearing. All for the cashish, stepping on their OWN family all the way to the bank.
So good hearing the original truth on these matters. Just hope the "Purple Circle" and the misguided majority of the people who are perpetuating these miss truths wake up and back off.
It is making Australians divisive and jeopardising any hope of Harmony.
❤❤❤
Madison King and Jacinta Price both deserve recognition as erudite, proper spokespeople for aboriginal Australians well ahead of Albo and Linda Burnie's pal,, Thommo the Phillipino Commo, or Pommy Bruce or Pommy Lydia..
You need to be in parliament …..you make a lot of sense 👍
Madison. Thank you. You now have me as a supporter. I trust you can have an audience with Senator Jucinta Price.
Virtue Signalling everywhere but no one is seeing it. Well done young lady for standing up to the BS.
...and if we speak up about it, we are to be shamed and cancelled.
@@stilllearning1160 tbh it's going to be a price we have all have to be willing to pay. If lots of corners are shining perhaps we can slow down the rot for our children's sake.
Im a part blackfella and I think this BS about Welcome to Australia is something Albo help start and promote, the tax payer is putting up thousands of dollars for every one of these BS ceremony.
Imagine being welcomed to your own country. What utter bullshit
We don’t make a mockery out of it. The Aboriginal corporations do. Well done Madison, this is how we bring the communities together while they divide us for money. It’s all about grifting the Australian taxpayer for the few.
You just have to wait long enough and your feelings get validated. Thank you for being honest. ❤
I’m a Christian, I love all people, my grandson attends a Kinda in Victoria and has to repeat a aboriginal pledge to country every time he’s there, thanks for opening my eyes to the spiritual side of this.
Thank You Madison - And the Govt is Only after the Aboriginal Mining Rights Please Stay Safe!
Thankyou Madison for this truth telling. I'm in my mid-60's and have first cousins who are Aborigines. Their mother, my Auntie, is a full blood Aborigine. She is quiet and shy, except around family. When she speaks you're glued to her voice, her words, her truths. She speaks with such dignity and with no padding. When asked about all this welcome to country and smoking ceremonies and utters two words ''NO GOOD.'' No more needed.
Keep telling the truth. Total respect 👍
Well said Madison . I’m half cast on my father’s side but let’s call a spade a spade , I’m a white fella, I don’t pretend to be or know about aboriginal customs and ways.
It’s refreshing to hear the truth you speak . I never understood where this suddenly came from ? All these politicians with absolutely no idea what they talking about as usual their ignorance is overwhelming.
Keep speaking the truth the truth will set you free 🙏🏻
Thank you for your honesty..... honesty is the best policy, even if it's costly..... the cost is lies that try to make it a truth..... respect... 👍
you know who else has a smoking ceremony.....the catholics.
I have a "smoking ceremony" that I engage in too 😂
Yandi... Gods little gift
