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
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…

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.
Given that's what the killer was explicitly pointing out with the engraved bullets...WTF are the other 30% thinking
My guess is a coin toss between peoples whos mental process went "murder bad, end process" or people who would happily take a turn driving the orphan crushing machine.
In either case, morons... Nuanced opinions are allowed, and that seems where the majority has landed, if they are a bit inconsistent.
or people who ~~would happily~~ are totally due to take a turn driving the orphan crushing machine.
(It’s not like a population would work poverty wages for decades if there weren’t a decent chance of driving a little orphan crushing)
If I could drive the machine, and we could crush maybe 5% fewer orphans, that's a win, right?

Don't kill thousands of people next time bud.
Thousands is probably low number.
We are looking at multipliers of that, with people refused insurance who will die years from now because of lack of treatment.
The grift that keeps on taking
You can't have CEO murder without a CEO. It takes two to tango, as they say. You saw what his AI denial system was doing, and walking down the street alone at that time of day. I'm not saying he was asking for it, but he could have taken reasonable precautions likenot making sociopathic business decisions.
Besides, if it's a legitimate assassination the Executive Suite has ways to try and shut that whole thing down using ethics. But let's assume maybe that didn't work or something in this case. I think there should be some sort of punishment, but the punishment should be on the unregulated inhuman greed our healthcare system has become.
Did you see what he was wearing? You can’t just walk around dressed like a CEO and expect not to get shot. Nobody dresses like that unless they want attention from assassins.
How do the cops phrase it when they talk about black people they randomly accidentally murder?
"Authorities say the suspect, one Brian Thompson, was not currently under indictments for murder or fraud, and it is not known when or if he stopped beating his wife or engaged in gangbanging and drug distribution. They stress that the suspect is not currently known to be a pedophile, and that he is innocent untill proven guilty."

If we can harp on women for deserving to be raped based on their attire we can totally harp on CEOs deserving to get murdered based on their sociopathic behavior.

If you or someone you know is considering a career in health insurance, please call or text 988.
Or 911. Cops can take care of you.

I'm not a billionaire CEO and I don't feel threatened.
I feel safer
I blame CEO murder on CEO.
Nice, maybe they'll do some single payer USA before there's another attack.
You've got one guy locked up, but Luigi has many, many 1-Ups
The other 30% don't know but think it definitely wasn't Luigi since they were with him that night.
0.2% blamed Luigi out of self preservation.
30.8% responded "boots taste yummy"
And only 14% think it had no influence. Given that group is going to contain the folk who think all deaths are god's will or that the universe is acausal that isn't too bad. Could be lower, but not bad.
