Anything less than 100% is a bit disappointing, to be honest, but this is promising. Trans rights are human rights!
90% for an issue like this is really fucking impressive, to the point I doubt the result. If you ask people about anything, there will be 5-10% of people who mishear/misread the question/accidentally click on the wrong button/don't care about the poll/etc. If you asked people whether they are currently alive, you will get similar numbers.

This is all true, and yes 91% is remarkably high, and functionally unanimous. I'm just a bit salty that it's even a question.
To be fair it is probably near the number of people who do not want spiders injected into their blood.
The poll was done by redbridge, one of the major political pollsters here. Though pollsters do occasionally get it wrong on political issues, I honestly don't think they would publish such an overwhelming result if they didn't believe it was robust.
Though the op's article was from October, the poll was done and published early this year, just before our federal elections. The same election where the conservatives tried to go with MAGA-style culture wars. So if I had to guess, there may be an element of fatigue with the strategy of cosying up with the far right fringes shown in the result of the poll.
And yet they still didn't get the message. After their disastrous loss, there were still many in the party that said it was because they didn't go far enough right..
I think they understand perfectly well. Fascists are stupid on purpose.
...what does 24% of Americans have against kittens? 🤔
100% of people don't even think the earth is round. Please lower your expectations.
Ubajaoa
It's absolutely not all of you. Flat earth Nazis are a thing.
I want to see the flat earth nazis fight the moonbase nazis. Preferably to the death.
Unlike leftists, Nazis are really good at working with people they disagree with. They purge in stages, starting with the most isolated targets, like trans people. They only go after other Nazis when they already control the government.
It's because they are amoral and have no real ideology beyond control.
Are there any issues that have 100% agreement on anything?
Very impressive to see 91% though. Go Australia!
"Ted Cruz is not sexy"
"It's impolite to stab your neighbors without a good reason"
"Asbestos pizza is a bad idea"
"A municipal skate park is a bad venue for professional football"
"Viking Hippie should have stopped 2 examples ago"
the last one is not 100% agreed on I think you should have kept going :3
"Stepping on a Lego brick barefoot is unpleasant"
"It's generally preferable to not get cancer"
“Hats exist"
"Manchester United FC suck"
"Michael Vick would be a suboptimal spokesperson for PETA"
"Capybaras are chill as fuck"
"There are many pictures and videos of cats on the internet"
"Yogi Bear probably wasn't being homophobic when he claimed to be smarter than the average bear"
"Adulting is hard"
Maybe the other 9% are trans and like a great secret beach don't want everyone to know how fabulous it is to be trans!
