The alleged 1951 document "General Certificate of Exemption" is fake. It was originally created as part of a newspaper ad to promote the 2008 SBS television series "First Australians". The Commonwealth of Australia government has never issued any in its history. https://veritasetcaritas.medium.com/the-truth-about-the-australian-aborigines-protection-act-866a2461bd8b https://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/episodes/mis-promotion/9975092 https://factcheck.afp.com/certificate-about-former-status-australias-aboriginal-people-not-genuine-experts-say https://www.heraldsun.com.au/blogs/andrew-bolt/nova-peris-and-fake-history/news-story/dbc75d42107f0ccaeef3f854b9457bea

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1689395963562176512

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
