  1. The addition “such as marriage” gives the question a very narrow framing.

    A respondent who doesn’t agree that same sex marriage should be a guaranteed right is not necessarily opposed to other more basic forms of lgbti+ rights.

  2. And yet Poland will probably be the last country in the World to legalise it. Because even with the new so-called “progressive” government which promised civil partnerships we can’t have them because “the conservatives will be offended”.

  3. Romania..why do you hate us? The people seemed friendly when me and my partner visited.

  4. In hindsight it isn’t too surprising that Hungary is so high compared to the rest. The referenda that Victor Orban has organised on the topic are comically frivolous and might have swung people towards the other direction by virtue of their cartoonish wording.

    Now I am mostly wondering how many Hungarians have listened to O1G, and if so, how regularly they listen to it.

  5. TIL, from [https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news/2018/31/international-road-haulage-over-4-percent-up-in-2017/cee-countries–ceecs–](https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news/2018/31/international-road-haulage-over-4-percent-up-in-2017/cee-countries–ceecs–)

    CEE countries are EU member states which were part of the former Eastern bloc.
    The following countries are included: Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia.

    … never heard of it before.

  6. They should ask muslims and africans living in Europe about this 🤣. If lucky you’ll get 5% to agree.

  7. Czechia W that’s for sure. I am surprised that Hungary and Poland are that high, but that’s good, right?

  8. Do they ever do surveys where the question is more “Do you believe LGBT should have the right to exist without persecution”?

    Some people disagree with the marriage part because they view marriage as strictly religious, one man and woman under God sort of thing, but would otherwise accept LGBT.

    And are these questions always about marriage specifically, what about the difference in marriage and something like a civil partnership, would it change their answers? (I don’t know how the question is asked in the languages).

  9. I actually don’t understand how some people are sometimes able to freak out so much about allowing lgbtq rights. For example how does a gay marriage between 2 people that I don’t know affect me…?

  10. It would be interesting next to a graph of religious population percentage

    However, I didn’t expect it

  11. I’m sorry Hungary, I wasn’t familiar with your game

  12. And then people wonder why we need pride, and activism, visibility, education and why people are fighting for their rights and the rights of others. Happily surprised with a few of the numbers tho.

  13. Not surprised with Slovakias result.. however at least we have first gay President 😀

  14. Really surprised by Hungary and Lithuania for different reasons.

  15. Imagine how much better Hungary would do if Orban didn’t fk the whole country over with his electoral “reforms”…

  16. Would be interesting to see the percentage of the world

  17. Really don’t understand why my fellow Bulgarians are so against lgbt folk. Like if you are straight, you have no stake in this, why waste so much energy being a hater when it literally doesn’t affect you to let others have rights.

  18. I do not believe these stats are up to date. While Lithuania is very much a conservative country, as of recently it is far from being this bad. This seems like typical statistics you would see in mid-to-late 2010’s.

  19. 38% people in my country are braindead idiota 🙁

  20. When do we start calling these… you know… human rights?

  21. As a Romanian that feels optimistic af. It’s probably like 10-20% at best for lgbt rights

  22. Can we start enforcing a requirement to include sources for such data?
