Hi actually minorities shouldn’t have to depend on the good will of a majority for their basic human rights so kindly gently caress off?

Yeah they should have to depend on the good will of the elites for their basic human rights like God intended.

This is what it looks like when minorities don't have to rely on the good will of the majority:



Yep. Luckily the majority are not in charge of Australia because we are a representative democracy instead of an actual democracy. Could you imagine if white people held all the power by virtue of being the majority. So glad minorities get to dodge that loving nightmare.

I was on the lookout for a sweet rainbow tie but there was just so much going on. press were everywhere with phones and lights, i joined in some exultation with some people before noticing the sky news dude next to me recording. I took off my lanyard and he said 'cool, soundbite'.
People were proposing to one another, crying, cheering, interviewing. Some guy from the RiotACT was talking to anyone he could with the energy of a kids entertainer.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
