Unironically very funny to talk down about people’s dumb animal minds while actively misunderstanding the usability of a survey based on vibes without accounting for vibes.
This survey is useful for tracking attitudes about concepts over time (and for guiding rhetorical strategy). It doesn’t tell us if people like socialism. It tells us about their perception of that word (use-mention distinction).
Folks perceive the same thing differently depending on how it’s phrased, obamacare vs the ACA, for instance. Ever heard of manufacturing consent? If the word “socialism” is losing negative connotation, that’s quite telling. I’d also like to emphasize that human intelligence is impossible to underestimate.
Why would you comment the same (bs) line twice in different threads?
yOu eVEr hEaR aBouT aPprOPriAtIOn? You’re demonstrating exactly why this is a dumbshit survey. It could just as easily mean that it is being effectively appropriated and had its meaning changed you DENSE motherfucker. It doesn’t actually tell us anything if we just assume the word itself is what was stigmatized.
