But hey don’t forget that largely in Australia we have had trucks with a robotic arm to pick up the bins since like the 90s or something. I’m shocked when I see workers grab and empty bins into garbage trucks in the US.

First off to be precise, this was a ”proposal to recognise Aboriginal people in its constitution and establish a body to advise parliament on Indigenous issues".

Some examples of what I think were sadly effective for the no campaign:

“This will allow indigenous peoples to reclaim your land”

“It will only further divide our nation”

“We don’t know how this might be misused”

These all play on peoples fear. On the other hand some indigenous peoples also were campaigning for a no vote, primarily because they thought it wasn’t strong enough.

This gave voters a lot of reasons to hide behind while voting no.

And all this was not helped by a rather poor yes campaign that barely did anything to address misconceptions.

Essentially our brain can detect 3 colours separately, red, green and blue.

Do you have a source for this? I’m pretty sure our brains can detect any arbitrary wavelength within a range. The red green blue thing just happens to be the three colours we can mix to emulate most (but not all) of the frequencies we can detect.
