I'm equal parts astonished and saddened at the lack of knowledge of how #TheVoice was developed, as well as people's basic lack of knowledge of the document that underwrites Australia as we know it - the Australian Constitution.

It's quite shocked me.

I've just had people on my timeline claiming they think the best way to create #TheVoice would be to go around to Indigenous communities speaking to Indigenous people - when the Voice was developed over years by going around to Indigenous communities speaking to Indigenous people

They've also claimed they need "coNcrEte deTaiLs" on this proposed constitutional amendment when the contents of the Australian Constitution do not contain specific, concrete details - it's a framework for others (parl, judiciary) to fill in.

That's the whole point of it.

Why sit in public spouting this dross when you could simply read first and research before giving an opinion on something you clearly haven't bothered finding out about?

These must be the same people who go to book club saying they hate the book they haven't bothered reading.
