Your question was pretty transparently bullshit, laden with innuendo about how Stan Grant is only partially indigenous, and therefore is just cashing in on this situation.

Then you follow it up with some noice gender based slurs, that you know are frowned on in here.

I hate that you made me think amethyst is the reasonable one in this situation.

Man, normally you're fine, but after listening to Stan Grant talk about actual genocide, in detail, for 10 minutes, it just isn't loving funny to hear flippant poo poo about racial fractions. It's just tiring.

When did discussing politics include being objectively racist? This is a sincere question before you flip out, as every other post of mine can affirm. You aren't being jusged on a question of politics, you're espousing inverted one drop theory - rather than a drop of Indigenous blood making him indigenous you are accusing him of being an Uncle Tom Aborigine. How is this different from Andrew Bolt's conviction? Different from people telling Adam Goodes he should act white for succeeding and not making a scene? Where is your valid political argument here not found in arguments of blood supremacy and arrogance?

The former Infrastructure PM posted:

After leaving the prime ministership, I said that I would spend some time talking to family, trusted colleagues and local Liberals about my future. I have been heartened by the support and encouragement I’ve received to continue to serve the country as a member of parliament.

Therefore, I am renominating to represent the people of Warringah for another term as their Liberal MP.

I am proud of my work to establish the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust that has done so much to improve the amenity of former military land on North Head, Middle Head and Georges Heights. Should I be renominated and elected, I am looking forward to working with Premier Mike Baird to ensure that the Warringah Peninsula gets better transport links to the rest of Sydney.

It has been a great honour to serve the people of Warringah for 22 years and I hope to retain their trust and confidence.

A great quote I heard once was "If there is an elephant in the room, introduce it"

To get consensus there first needs to be an acknowledgment from everyone that the problem exists. This is ignoring the question of "Why should there be consensus on stopping injustice?"

That's a good point to make. And I'll agree without qualification acknowledges the problem exists. However, it's also get out the popcorn time when anyone dares to put forward any proposal to address the underlying injustice. Interest groups seem more effective in tearing each other apart and anyone else who may get their hand in the way.

Forgive me (and probably others) for just deciding to tuning out of the whole issue is easier than than the risk of being painted as a racist.
