The same argument that won the gay marriage plebiscite - people should be equal under the law and, by extension, our constitution.
Right, those are the options. Either you voted yes or you’re unengaged and racist.
Got another reason?

Yes yes rich and poor sleeping under bridges and all that. A convenient excuse that paves the way for never trying to improve things. Besides if we were all equal we would have treaty, as their ancestral rights would be recognised.

Loads?
How about not engaging in racial discrimination which is exactly what the referendum was doing, it was giving a group more power to decide the direction of the country because of their ethnicity.
It’s blatant racism and an attempt to cement racial superiority in the country by using victim status.

I’m inclined to suggest some minor edits… “Either you voted yes or you’re unengaged and/or racist and/or have been manipulated by a brazenly racist no campaign.”
