Indigenous groups who supported the Voice campaign have accused those who voted No of a "shameful act whether knowingly or not" in a 12-point statement issued after ending a week of silence in the wake of the referendum’s resounding defeat. The statement claimed that the level of disinformation and misinformation espoused by those against the Voice was so bad that it "unleashed a tsunami of racism against our people", and that Australia had chosen "to make itself less liberal and less democratic" as a result of voting No.
