It feels like 30% of Americans will consistently give whatever they think the wrong answer is. In US polling, 70% is basically everyone.
great username btw. totally relevant for this community.
I've been using this handle for the last like seven years, and I'm genuinely delighted that it's finally funny
Don’t you think you should be Fully_Adjusted by now?
Isn't that Brian Thompson's username now?
They're trying, and that's what's important.
Agreed, sincerely. Trying can be a greater effort than we can give sometimes, so to try is to keep fighting the good fight.
30% of Americans think chocolate milk comes from brown cows. There are a lot of absolute morons out there.
The study you're presumably referencing actually is said to quote it at 7%. So great news, there are about a quarter as many morons as you thought!
The other great news is that, the Innovation Center For US Dairy (the source of our famous chocolate milk study) wasn't done asking and answering serious journalistic questions!

Thanks for bringing this group to my attention. Their rigorous and thoughtful work is crucial because as we all know, if the questions are insane, the answers don't matter.
I love that cows eat chocolate because it’s good for them. That made my day. I’ll try to forget about the whole industrial farming nightmare behind it though…
Thanks! I considered looking the true stat up but it was just too silly and I couldn’t be bothered. This was even better than looking it up myself because now you gave us bonus silliness.
Just another free service I provide
Omg this hurts. My mom legit thought this until she married my dad and they went out on a trip to the country together and he had to set her straight. Like she was in her 20s when she learned that’s not how it works.
To be fair, my parents were city people.
70% of people didn't vote for democracy so Trump will rule again.
"Democracy is when you vote for my guy or else. Change the voting system so you can vote for your guy but still have your vote count against bad guy? FUCK YOU!"
Valid complaint but bad framing. It's not in the interests of the two parties to change the voting system, so they're never going to make it an option. You want that, you'll have to stop asking politely.
It's a piece of paper. If everyone on Tiktok posts themselves writing a third party candidate, they would all do it.
Personally, I believe most of the country doesn't want a better leader and everyone just blames the two party system out of convenience.
