Australian national broadcaster ABC has projected three states voted No, effectively defeating the referendum.

    Im pointing out the hypocrisy, not providing an endorsement of monarchy. The Australian constitution has an original sin baked in, so pretending it’s a sacred document and not already a biased setup is naive.

      Nobody is proving an endorsement of monarchy. You’re using monarchy as an argument for adding (additional) racism to the constitution. It’s a fucking stupid argument. “One thing is bad, therefore it is not a problem to make other things worse too.”

      If something has a flaw (monarchy) that’s not a reason to make it worse (enshrine racially based representation).
