That's not the definition of racism.

Giving people in a wheelchair a ramp onto the train is not ableism.

Giving children a booster seat in a car is not ageism.

Bigtory is about discriminating against people based on an attribute. So you'd need to argue that the rest of Australia is having their government representation taken away by the voice.

The entire point of the voice is try and treat people equally by addressing the intergenerational issues caused by systemic racism.
