Hmm, is it odd that the area of Australia closest to Antarctica is the "Communist" section?
Maybe I'm just dumb but I cannot find how many miles it is from Antarctica. Searched show from Melbourne to the interior but not to the coast.
I'd say Tas is more like the south... We are often mocked for inbreeding, the fact we are convict descendants, etc. Some of that is at least partially true. Essentially we are an island of rednecks, or bogans as they are known here. I used to be ashamed of this, back when i was a young lefty. Now I'm redneck and proud.
I 100% understand. We live in south Louisiana. My parents' first language was French. When they started school, students would have their hands rapped with a ruler if they spoke their native language. For a long time, Cajuns were made to feel less. Happy that this has changed.

3400 km ( ~ 2120 mi ) from Hobart to Casey
Distances between antarctic & au
Thanks!
we're really not that commie in Tas. Hobart is, a bit, with its university student population. Most are apathetic, slightly right of centre.
Thank-you for this information. Sounds like California. We have friends there who have said that it's really more conservative than people think.
