    Just in: Australians are a pack of racists. Also the floor is made of floor

      So not a fan of this crap. Certain politicians don’t want to take responsibility for their bigoted views, so they ask citizens to decide and then stir up smear campaigns and misinformation. And so many people buy it.

      Gay marriage was banned in 2004 by John Howard’s government and it only got made legal again in 2017 because the hatemongering/sabotage didn’t work and the numbers passed. (There are legal differences but the underlying plan was the same.)

      NOT ALL. 45% voted yes

      And I think too many people who voted no are just really really stupid and let themselves be swayed by simple propaganda.

      why the fuck can’t reasonable people make propaganda to sway voters?!>! It’s not unethical to have catchy jingles.
