With the voice referendum being a week away, we'd like to take a moment to thank everyone on Aus.social and elsewhere using CWs and/or hashtags and discussing respectfully.
Using CWs and hashtags lets people choose whether to engage. We would like First Nations people to be able to enjoy the fedi without having to read white people's opinions about them.
Further, unfortunately it needs to be said: no matter where people stand on this issue, offensive imagery and derogatory comments about First Nations people will be swiftly dealt with under Aus.social's Code of Conduct.
To Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people here and around the fedi, we hope you're doing okay.
