To be fair it is probably near the number of people who do not want spiders injected into their blood.

I think they understand perfectly well. Fascists are stupid on purpose.

It's absolutely not all of you. Flat earth Nazis are a thing.

the last one is not 100% agreed on I think you should have kept going :3

Yeah, you're not going to get that in Australia. The latitude goes down to about 42° South in Tasmania. Boston is about 42° North. I know there's much more to the climate than just latitude, but gives you some idea.

Interesting that you'd like it colder. I've moved from Australia to Atlantic Canada and much as I'm loving it here - there's a lot to said for a more temperate climate.

Is the south as cold as like the northern US?

Apparently yes, in the sense that our buildings are so terribly insulated that there's no real inside/outside temperature difference.

Yep, that's definitely true but unless you live here, you most likely won't understand what i would have meant by state capitals.

Australia is generally conservative politically and only last year had a huge ruckus in a lot of our local council meetings with regards to drag queens reading to children.

Additionally, there's nothing in the article or Equality Australia's website as to who and where they polled. My only concern is for a trans asylum seeker to arrive here expecting 91% of Australia to welcome them and end up in one of our many dodgy suburbs and get hurt.

Ah nice, now im reading your comments with a thick Australian accent haha

Well, you're all gonna be renting housing together forever.

Polling like this is done over the phone, they take numbers at random, and when you start getting into the 1000s in terms of a response, the samples become pretty accurate in terms of representation

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(statistics) theres probably more info here

also the snappy headline saya 91% sure, but looking at the article

86% agree or strongly agree that government and opposition should not politicise trans issues for political gain  89% agree or strongly agree that LGBT people deserve to live with dignity and respect  91% agree or strongly agree that trans people should have the freedom and choice to live their lives in the way that makes them happy  81% agree of strongly agree that trans people deserve the same rights and protections as other Australians 

for reference the population was 26million at the last census, and 91% of that is something like 23,660,000, so there's still a few million people who'd love to attack queer people, i've met plenty, but honestly most people dngaf about trans people, and have not met one irl
