Australian far-right politician Pauline Hanson has been quite the know-it-all recently.
Last week,Watch Fast & Furious 6 Online she claimed the Great Barrier Reef is fine, then on Monday night, she decided that "there's no definition to an Aboriginal" and a person could be Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander by marrying one.
It's part of her rhetoric around lobbying to repeal the country's Racial Discrimination Act, 18C, which makes it illegal to "offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate" someone due to their race or ethnicity.
But with grace, a touch of sass and a large serving of reality, Indigenous Australians have responded with a hashtag: #DefineAboriginal.

By that bizarre logic, one could be white by marrying to a white person.
The tweets are painted with tales of segregation and disadvantage, which still occur to this day in Australia.
