This “stupidity” was reported here the other day but this is a video of the Western Australian Premier and the Aboriginal translator at work. Unbelievable!

Believe it or not ‘Australians were treated to a new level of dystopian absurdity this morning when Western Australian Premier Mark McGowan released an ad campaign for Covid vaccination.
In it, McGowan has his Covid vaccination message translated from English into … English by the Aboriginal woman beside him.
This is the most racist government initiative I’ve ever seen.@MarkMcGowanMP had an indigenous elder translate his message from English to “Aboriginal-English.”

Whether intentional or careless, the Western Australian government’s footage suggests that Aboriginal people can only understand English if it’s broken up and repeated via an Aboriginal person, thus infantilising an entire community.
Social media has received the patronising campaign with a mixture of shock, awe (from the horror), and bemusement that public money could be misused in a blatantly racist and insulting manner.
“This is an important message to keep Aboriginal safe,” says McGowan.
“This is a message, a proper important one, to keep everybody safe one,” mimics the woman beside him.
“You can die from the Corona, or get really sick,” adds McGowan, coming across like a commercial from an episode of Black Mirror.
“You’re gonna get it. Pass away from this Corona. Or you’re gonna get really sick one.”
“It’s time to get the Corona needle to keep people and country strong.”
The video goes on like this for some time.
It comes as Western Australia launches its ServiceWA app for citizens to verify their Covid vaccination status before checking into retail, hospitality, and entertainment venues.
“It allows West Australians to show proof of vaccination, check-in with SafeWA at businesses and venues and access their G2G passes for interstate travel, all in one convenient place,” said Health Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson.
“[With] the ServiceWA app, you won’t need to show identification with your Covid-19 digital certificate to enter businesses and venues like you would with a certificate stored in your digital wallet or hard copy. This is because you use a digital identity to set up the ServiceWA app. Your digital identity helps you prove who you are online, meaning the app is safe, secure and not accessible by anyone else.”
Such comments will not do anything for the growing concern about the federal government’s Trusted Digital Identity legislation that is due for consideration early this year, with many observers worried it will formalise the establishment of digital medical verification in the commercial world.’https://www.rebelnews.com/wa_premier_deploys_indigenous_aide_to_translate_english_into_english?utm_campaign=rb_01_12_2022&utm_medium=email&utm_source=therebel
‘The existence of humans suggests that, at some point, there must have been a first human. Neither evolutionists nor creationists deny this. However, creationists believe that Adam (Genesis 1–2) was the first human. But whether the first human was Adam or some unnamed, recently-evolved person, where did that person learn to speak?
Evidence suggests that humans do not learn to speak unless they are taught by someone who already knows how to speak. Additionally, the archaeological record indicates that fully-developed languages have been in existence as long as humans have been (Elgin 1973, 44). For these reasons, Curtis, in a 1990 article, argues that a personal creator was responsible for the existence of the first human.
Linguistic Evidence
Linguistic research suggests that languages have not evolved from a prehistoric development period (Eglin 1973, 44). Rather, languages have always existed with the same communication potential as they currently possess. In fact, it is possible that they even held greater communication potential in the past.

Archaeological Evidence
The archaeological finds from the past 100 years of excavations have demonstrated that written language appears well developed in the earliest records of civilization. For example, the Ebla tablets date to about 2000 BC. These tablets contain writing in a fully-developed, phonetic language.
How Do People Learn How to Speak?
Some Darwinian anthropologists have suggested that if, in the process of evolution, there was a transition from animal to man, this transition would have included the acquisition of language. However, one of these anthropologists, Humbolt, realized that man cannot speak without already being human. For him, this created an unsolvable problem regarding the origin of speech (Lyell 1873).

Another problem with determining the origin of speech from an evolutionary perspective is that in so-called primitive cultures, the languages tend to be more complex than in more advanced cultures. Furthermore, animals with the physical capability to use logical speech do not do so. Studies have shown that animals that respond to commands do so based on vocal tones rather than the spoken words. Thus, all attempts to solve the evolutionary origin of language have failed.

Every child that learns how to speak learns from someone who already knows how to speak. There do not seem to be any exceptions to this rule. Feral children who grow up without contact with spoken language did not learn to speak until they came into contact with speaking individuals. Once they had heard speech, they were able to learn how to speak (Tomb 1925).
What Does this All Mean?

Since multiple languages appear to have existed in fully developed forms in the earliest known civilizations, it appears that the languages do not have one common root. Rather, each language appeared independently of the others.
This evidence aligns well with the biblical account. From the creation of Adam until the Tower of Babel, there was only one language on earth (Genesis 11:1). Curtis suggests that God taught the first man, Adam, to speak. It is clear that Adam spoke a well-developed language because he was able to name the animals (Genesis 2:19). From that point on, each generation learned to speak from the previous one.
Later, when God confused the languages at the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:7), He miraculously created a number of additional unrelated, fully-formed languages. The pattern of language learning continued. Each person learned to speak from the previous generation.
Conclusion
The scientific evidence obtained through linguistic and archaeological studies suggest that the first human who learned how to speak must have learned from someone who already possessed the capability of speech. This first person must have learned from someone of a higher order than humans. This correlates well with the biblical account of God’s creation of Adam. Adam must have received the ability and knowledge to speak from God himself. The study of language demonstrates that there must be a creator God. No human can speak a language unless that person has been taught. Furthermore, languages have not arisen from some lesser forms of communication. They appeared early in history, fully developed. The languages present today do not share a common root, suggesting that they appeared as separate, well-developed languages. This accords well with the account of the Tower of Babel.

Genesis 11:1“And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.”

‘After suffering a stroke, a man in Baltimore suddenly began speaking with a Scandinavian accent. Though he had no experience with languages other than English, he suddenly sounded Nordic and appeared unfamiliar with English! In the weeks after the stroke, his speech gradually returned to normal. After three and one-half months, he again spoke with no trace of accent.
This affliction is real. It’s called “foreign-accent syndrome.” It’s a rare condition in which a brain malfunction causes speech to sound as if the speaker has a foreign accent. Americans have also reportedly developed apparent German, Welsh, Scottish, Irish and Italian accents.
Scientists say the fact that speech follows certain patterns in this way suggests something about the way the human brain is wired. A growing number of studies and experiences – such as “foreign-accent syndrome” – suggest that humans have been programmed with much more than just language ability. Some of the unique features of specific languages may actually be programmed into our brains.
The Bible tells us that everyone on Earth spoke the same language until God confused the languages of rebellious people at Babel. “Foreign-accent syndrome” suggests that many of the detailed characteristics of language may have been originally wired into the brain. It also helps us see that language is more that just noises to which we have given meaning. Language is God’s gift.’ https://creationmoments.com/sermons/an-accent-on-language-ability-2/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=an-accent-on-language-ability-2&mc_cid=b04cfc19c5&mc_eid=00c1dcff3c
Genesis 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
‘Growing numbers of people gathered on the fertile plain watered by the two great rivers. There, in the sunny warm climate, they could easily harvest multiple crops per year. And they could easily mold bricks and set them with tar and asphalt from the abundant pits. “So they said, ‘Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name (for ourselves), lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth’” (Genesis 11:4).
You know the history. The people were in direct disobedience to the Lord’s repeated command – a resistance to his divine will to venture forth and populate the whole earth. And they were caught up in their own humanistic pride. Jewish historian Josephus wrote regarding Babel in his Antiquities of the Jews. He described how Nimrod was the principal one to excite the post-flood world population in their rebellion against God and attempt of a humanist utopia. He noted in a 2,000-year-old statement, keenly insightful in its understanding of the antichrist spirit: “Nimrod … gradually changed the government into a tyranny, seeing no other way of turning man from the fear of God but by bringing them into a constant dependence upon its power” (Josephus: The Complete Works, Volume 40).
As we continue through prolonged pandemic lockdowns, we should realize that there is “a method to this madness” – one of conditioning people to government authority, control and provision in the place of God. This displacement of freedom under God by big government is also the goal of communism and the thinking of Karl Marx. He and his fellows realized that a government tyranny can be established with violence and revolution from stirred-up grievances – the “oppressed” against the “oppressor”. And a great deception is employed that power and abundance will accrue from a new humanist utopia to the oppressed people.
Yet, because of man’s fundamental depravity, this never happens. Any kind of humanism is flawed because mankind is fundamentally flawed. And an elite group brings in their new mandated “utopia” with more godless oppression and their own addiction to government power. As with Nimrod and with the various forms of Marxism, godlessness must be invoked to properly support an all-powerful and all-wise State in the minds of the people. The biblical God and Christianity stand in the way.
Marx was intent on subverting Christianity and was a man fascinated and inspired by the devil and his domain (Marx and Satan, R. Wurmbrand, 1986; The Devil and Karl Marx, P. Kengor, 2020). He rejoiced with the publishing of Charles Darwin’s Origin of Species in 1859, seeing it as scientific corroboration of godlessness – of his anti-God ideology. Today, we can see his ideas emerging in all the “wokeness”, “cancel culture”, “social justice” and the “cultural Marxism” of our time.
In fact, the founders of the organization Black Lives Matter (BLM) have publicly called themselves “trained Marxists”. And Antifa groups first arose during the Russian Revolution, migrated to Germany, where they fought to bring about another Marxist revolution, and have then come to the USA. Many of them are Satanists as well as Marxists.
The founders of BLM are also practitioners of witchcraft, with co-founder Patrisse Cullors and others advocating the system of Ifa, a West African religion of divination through calling up the dead, the “ancestor spirits” (wikipedia.org/wiki/Ifá). They credit it and Marxism for empowering themselves and their movement. (The empowerment is like that of the Tower of Babel – used as a temple to commune with spirits. The name Babel in Babylonian is “Babili”, which means “the gate of god”.)
And indeed there is a power that has taken hold worldwide – with reactions of support all across the world, taking knees of submission, chanting the names of the favored dead, and flooding the coffers of BLM with over $1.6 billion. Professional sports enterprises, major corporations, universities, young people with desires to advance “social justice” and a major political party have all championed the cause. Yet, so much of the rush to judgment has been without all the facts. And so much of the reaction has been in a spirit of hatred, thuggery, violence, intimidation, condemnation, guilt and fear. This is not of God, but of a dark power.
BLM – along with much of academia, government, and business today, corrupted by humanist values and lack of moral clarity – advocates “Critical Race Theory” (CRT), which is not true civil rights. CRT, which arose in the 1990s, is an extension of “Critical Theory”, which came from the cultural Marxists – those who realized that revolution could only happen when the institutions of Western Civilization were sufficiently worn down. Undermine the institutions – education, family values, religion, social cohesion, etc. – and you can set things up for Marxism. CRT applies cultural Marxism to race, defining the “white” race as “the oppressor” and “blacks” as “the oppressed”.
Therefore, it is not good enough to say, “I am a person who happens to be black.” We must not say that we are, first and foremost, people, created by God and are of “one blood” (Acts 17:26) … and were divided at Babel into different languages and family groups. Rather, in CRT, people of color must say: “I am Black” because my “race” is the definition of my being, including being a person who is oppressed. This hearkens back to “scientific racism”, where human beings were supposedly not one subspecies, homo-sapiens, but had multiple origins. Race supposedly determined most all things about us. “Scientific racism” comes out of early evolutionary theory and is actually a “pseudo-science”.
The more evolution is accepted without question, the easier it becomes for Marxism and its various aberrations (like Critical Race Theory) to take root in the university setting. This is, in fact, what has happened. Evolution has held the intellectual ground in our educational institutions for a long time, so it is easy to see why Marxist theories and Socialism are accepted in our society today. It is the legitimizing of godlessness that Marx rejoiced in!‘https://creationmoments.com/newsletter/how-godless-evolution-and-marxism-are-conditioning-people-to-replace-god/?mc_cid=0b091796e7&mc_eid=00c1dcff3c
