mercy-misrule:

just a reminder from your local tired Australian that we did not legalise marriage equality today

we just got the results in of a non binding, voluntary country wide opinion poll

that has been preceded by months of open bigotry, as the vote no side ran feral except with a lot of money and conservative clout behind them

the bill to allow for same sex marriage had been put foward in parliament

we are still not there yet

so please

don’t spread posts saying gay marriage is legal in australia now

its super not! there’s still so much more foot dragging and awfulness to look forward to around this topic here
