It's weird that you would reach the conclusions you purport to have reached on a look at the live polling counts.

Adelaide, Clark, Melbourne, Sydney, North Sydney and Brisbane, being the Federal electorates representing the State capitols, all voted yes - some of them overwhelmingly so. ACT as well but I think they don't count or something.

Contrary to what is asserted, the campaign had significant impact exclusively in "the densely crowded suburbs (almost exclusively white) of the big cities".

The blame for the no vote winning falls on the people pushing for the no vote and the tactics employed to achieve it - sowing fear and division through an almost exclusively right wing controlled media landscape to an apathetic and generally racist population, that media having a tighter hold across older, poorer and more rural demographics.

No one was unclear on why they were voting. There was just a well-oiled disinformation campaign operating for the last six months convincing people that the yes vote would lead to black people and liberal intelligentsia kicking down the doors of 1970s lead paint and asbestos riddled bungalows and forcefully liquidating white people for reparations payments.

I am not denying that Dutton's fear and misinformation campaign (with generous help from the Murdoch media) worked at convincing many to vote No. But what you say does not stack up when you look at the total vote count for No. If most people in Australians live in big city suburban electorates (which they do), then why was the total vote for No so overwhelming, compared to Yes?? To blame it all on Dutton is wrong. The blame should go to the likes of Linda Burney, for running such a weak arsed campaign.

Do you sincerely believe this? That the people who voted no would have been convinced to vote otherwise with some other message? What's the magical incantation that the yes campaign should have invoked to gain support for basic and very minimal recognition of indigenous people in parliament? What are the magic words that you would suggest they offer? How else could they have phrased it so that non racists who weren't on board suddenly became on board? I think we all know what's going on here and victim blaming is not the right response.

Well its a bit late now, but as I said in my first post, there was virtually no campaign presence in highly populated (ie suburban) areas. There are no magic words in politics, only on-the-ground, in-your-face campaigning with real people presenting real facts and strong reasons for voting for anything. The Yes campaign failed to do this. Also, blaming only the winners for beating you for reasons....is a pretty big sign of weakness.

I rent a house and I have only had 1 small rent rise in 3+ years. Once the real estate sent me an email saying my rent was going to double. Turns out they hosed up and the owner fired them. The land owner uses the garage for his plumbing business and stores a ton of his poo poo in the yard. At this point, if I moved out he would have weeks of work cleaning it up so anyone would rent the place. He is a nice guy thankfully and I am paying about $200 less a week than a 2 BR unit cost around here.

If he ever starts cleaning up the yard I am going to get really scared.

I don't know what argument you think could have been made that the No voters would have accepted if "it gives just a tiny amount of influence to indigenous people" was already too far

From the moment even one indigenous person publicly supported the No campaign, the Yes campaign was doomed.

South Australia is the one which shocked me.
