Nobody here has offered hate to you. You’re choosing to interpret simple facts in that light. Australia and USA diverge on many topics, and no: we don’t blindly follow their policies on anything.
While the rhetoric in their media has been ghastly on trans issues this past decade, I have not seen that mirrored in Australia. There is no debate raging in parliament over dunnies or drag queens reading. In fact, when some loonies tried to protest such an event here, it didn’t go well for them. We even had a drag queen come read to my kid’s class. Fully supported by the school.
Yes, we are culturally influenced by the US, but we don’t blindly follow them. If the US were a paragon of Trans rights, there would still be dozens of nations around the world where trans people are persecuted. We don’t need to be fixated on any of these countries or their politics. We can (and do) go out own way.
