A group that supports the Indigenous voice to parliament wants to alienate No campaigners. By Sarah Ison.

A GetUp-backed group that supports the Indigenous voice to ­parliament is urging advocates, organisations and journalists to alienate opponents and encourage them to make racist comments so more Australians join the Yes camp …

“The opponents, we do not need or want them, they are the staunch opponents,” Common Cause Australia director Eleanor Glenn told the webinar. “Our messages should alienate them. When we do this, they start making outlandish and racist comments that turn off the persuadables because persuadables don’t want to see themselves as being racist or aligned with those kinds of comments. It’s then easier to bring the persuadables on-board to our welcoming, inclusive better future.”
