    For the record, an Aboriginal, Native and Indigenous is nothing more than politically designated classifications assigned to individuals who no longer identify as their nationalities, i.e., Yorta Yorta, Wadi Wadi, Eora, Arakwal, Yugambeh, Biripi, Gumbaynggirr, Muthi Muthi, Yaygirr etc...
    Just because a vote is put to the Australian, to assign the classifications, does not mean that the individual or their clan or nation identifies as such.
    To do so, would be an act of cultural erasure amount to genocide.
    This evident in the way the forms are constructed. They only ask three questions relating to the individual. Do you identify as Aboriginal? Do identity as Torres Strait Islander? Do you identify as an Australian citizen?
    I have asked Linda Burney to publicly state how many "Indigenous Australians" she Ministers for. To-date, the only response she has given through social media was, "There are around 200", or "There are roughly 250".
    It's called due diligence Linda.
    If your going to call to be the Minister, then at least take the time and make the effort to know their numbers, otherwise how do you know another clan hasn't been annihilated through politicide, democide and genocide?
    One hundred years from now...
    The new Aboriginal Minister: "We have around 200 Indigenous language groups."
    One-hundred years from then...
    New Aboriginal Minister: "We have about 200 Aboriginal language groups".
    Question...
    How many Wadi Wadi?
    How many Yuin?
    How many Yorta Yorta?
    How many Gumbaynggirr?
    How many Muthi Muthi?
    How many Yaygirr?
    How many Anaiwan?
    Your intelligeny enough... I am sure you get the gist by now.
    If not... Read state one of the ten stages of genocide... Classification.

    Is there a short word for Aboriginals without offending them?

      ⁠@@bisaular5333 “aboriginals” is not offensive! people shorten it to “abo” for convenience but it is inappropriate and offensive as it was used as a discriminatory word similar to the n word (n*gg*). “aboriginal” is okay! “abo” is rude! we call ourselves “blak fellas” too!

      @Bisaular. Greeting. An Aboriginal, Native and Indigenous is nothing more than politically designated classifications assigned to individuals who no longer identify as their nationalities, i.e., Yorta Yorta, Wadi Wadi, Eora, Arakwal, Yugambeh, Biripi, Gumbaynggirr, Muthi Muthi, Yaygirr etc...
      Just because a vote is put to the Australian, to assign the classifications, does not mean that the individual or their clan or nation identifies as such.
      It's like a foreign entity coming to Malaysia and telling all Malaysians, "Forget the name give to your clans by Creator and Ancestors, you will now be called an Aboriginal". Only two learn that when they a "Aboriginal", they are referring to the Aboriginal Corporations and their members and shareholders. That is the government's "Aboriginal communities".
      These Aboriginal Community-Controlled Organisations have been weaponised against us. The local health clinics keep the people sick. The Aboriginal Legal Services turns a blind eye to systemic killingsin police and prison custody. The Aboriginal Newspapers such as KooriMail promote propoganda and ignore voices who raise human rights concerns. The Aboriginal Land Councils use our language, Dreaming stories and knowledge of sacred sites to claim lands which obligates them to enter into Indigenous Land Use Agreements by a certain timeframe, which ultimately gives lands, waters and resources and favor to mining companies, developers and infrastructure.
      I could go on and on, but I am sure you get the gist... They do the dirty work for corporate Australia.

    We need a separate classification for real authentic dark race Indigenous Australians.

      You already do... It is the name of Your clan or Nation, as opposed to the classification assigned to you by your oppressors and suppressors.

      @@Deborah-h1p nope! We have government labels that classify us into two cultures. Torres Strait Island and Indigenous Aboriginal. A person with British Irish Afgan Asian ancestry can claim full aboriginality is not right. The 1800s British reference to these people was "half cast". Today, it's the most horrible and racist word you can call them. Even discrediting their appearance as indigenous is disrespectful to them.
