I know people - male, white, moderately educated, non religious - who were vocally proclaiming themselves as 'no' voters. They're to a man from working class and tradie families and tend to live in outer suburbs. It's very possible to be educated, middle class and pig ignorant. This is the demographic you're overlooking. Their reasoning can't really be dignified with the term. It boils down to 'gently caress poofters'.

Religious, crazed right winger scared of cultural marxism or just a prick these are the three categories that no voters would largely come from. A lot of them from all three. Its just in NSW it was religion that dominated why people voted no. certainly in Sydney Burn Down Canberra fucked around with this message at 12:39 on Nov 15, 2017 |

Burn Down Canberra posted:Just I believe it was mostly on religious grounds. I had friends who were surprised at the result in Western Sydney, but people here have religious values and vote either in that direction or what traditional values dictate. I’d say some working classism comes into it, but the fact that other states votes Yes in higher percentages than NSW and have smaller immigrant groups than Western Sydney leads me to think it’s more to do with first generation Australians. I can guarantee that their kids would be more likely to vote yes. Checking those electorate maps, many senators haven’t indicated whether they’re for or against, unless they’re bloody Craig Kelly. Definitely strategic for the ALP imo. I recall some news tabloid carrying on that some were sitting on the fence. Edit: Kelly said he’d vote yes because Hughes electorate said yes. woofbro fucked around with this message at 13:10 on Nov 15, 2017 |

"Religious" blanket might be unfair. Melbourne Ports was #3 Yes electorate and there's a pretty significant Jewish population. I'm not sure how large in raw numbers of population versus the cultural significance for the area but I feel like if they were against it generally we'd have higher than 18% "No".

Because marriage means your sex life is over, indefinitely, unless you want to wank on the couch Jokes on the heteros though, the loss of sex life is actually due to children.

frottage posted:This is what blows my mind. It's clear that this is a big enough issue that we're spending 100 mill on it, if nothing else it's a big enough issue that you're getting a personal letter asking for your thoughts. I would have thought that even that basic amount of information would lead you to want to understand what it is that you are ticking. Which then leads to the assumption that these people are 'informed', somehow. It was never about how big the issue was. The polling already showed the support was there and the political pressure at the last election was such that it had to be addressed The plebiscite was the Abbot government's way of deflecting from having a free vote on the issue as detractors knew the numbers were there. It was political nonsense evidence by the fact that it was non-binding. If it was even done in good faith the legislation would have already been debated and passed with the triggering mechanism been the vote.

I suggest we get the ABS to hold a nation-wide survey of all florists. As an aside, something that came up when talking to friends: This was a bittersweet day for most of Australia, but for exactly one man it was the highlight of his life. Finally, the whole country was listening to its head statistician.

screaden posted:What the gently caress is that about? 'Ironic' homophobes are like ironic racists - they don't exist. They're just regular old homophobes and racists but with a gimmick. NoNotTheMindProbe posted:Who will stand up for florists being forced to make gay floral arrangements? Where does this kind of stupidity even end I wonder. Everyone always talks about the florists and bakers, but if being a bigot is legalised with respect to gay marriage, where do we draw the line? Bridal party driving to the wedding stops to get fuel only to be told by the guy behind the counter that he's a proud bigot and they're not getting any petrol from him? They run out of fuel, so they call roadside assistance, only to be told he won't help them either? Someone from the party walks to the next servo with a jerry can, falls and breaks his leg, doctor won't treat him because he's trying to assist a gay wedding?

frottage posted:Maybe it's just melancholy from the Midnight Oil concert on the weekend. 8k people in a park going absolutely crazy for political themed music covering aboriginal rights to land rights. Take a lesson from the No campaign, the psychology wasn't "God will send you to Hell' it was 'don't be afraid to agree with our authority'. That's the key message they sent. And abstention is as good as a no, whatever it took to make voting Yes a big, risky step. In that sense, we've lost a lot. It's a bit crazy how a lot of Oils lyrics stay relevant. But scared people do not see reason, and people are very scared right now, they have huge mortgages over their heads, are working harder than ever for less than ever, and the system shows them what happens if they rock the boat. To overcome that you have to either have nothing to lose or are prepared to sacrifice everything. And that's exactly the intent of the system, to force you to make that choice. Sooner or later, as long as people keep trying, the tables do turn. There really isn't an alternative.
