MODERATORS
Useless journalist. At least link the fucking report. Or I guess don't because people might read it and make their own opinions.

It's here and no surprise the context matters.
indicate their agreement or disagreement with the statement: ‘Democracy is always and under all circumstances preferable to any other kind of government.’
only 1.4 per cent of Australians strongly disagreed with the statement, and a further 5.5 per cent disagreed. Another 26.3 per cent neither agreed nor disagreed.
Big surprise, strongly worded poll gets a lot of middle ground votes, but less than 10% outright disagree with the statement.
