Adams went off "in response to a conservative organization's poll purporting to show that many African Americans do not think it's OK to be white". Nearly half. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/washington-secrets/its-ok-to-be-white-agree-72-including-53-of-blacks

Appears to be this poll https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/lifestyle/general_lifestyle/january_2023/not_woke_yet_most_voters_reject_anti_white_beliefs

The pollsters put a different spin on it than Adams did. I agree with Adams that it is shocking, though I don't come to the same conclusions he did. Actually I suspect it's a poll that does not reflect well the attitude of Af/Ams ... to put together half that would say it's not OK to be white? that has to be hard to do, either that or the Black people I know now and used to work with over the years held beliefs they hid from me. Or, things have really changed.

I'm very suspicious of the BS being presented
Rasmussen is very opaque in how they got the results
I read the articles and clicked on links
Why are there no details
The article said a combination of phone and online.
How did they find the 1k??????
How many did this online??????
If done online, why only 1k. Thats a tiny number for an online poll.
How many did this over the phone???????
How many of the 1k were black??????
How did they determine a person was black???????
How is an online poll meaningful??????
Who is Pulse research and why isn't Rasmussen itself conducting the poll?????????
How much was pulse research paid???????
Why is Rasmussen hiding all this info??? ??
Is most of this poll online and they just called a few people ???????
How many employees did pulse use for this poll????
Seems the cheapest way is to do this online
THE WHOLE THING IS BS

Dup post

I’m very wary of the entire polling industry.

“Do you think Biden is a weak President because of his age, his ties to China, or the far left controlling him?”

Result….. 60% of Americans believe Biden is a weak president due to his age…

I’ve been interviewed for many polls. I must be on some sort of list. In many of them after a few questions I can tell what answers they want.

Classic garbage in and garbage out
Probably mostly an online poll
Polling is just like any other business
They need to make a profit
Calling people is expensive. Labor. Online polls are dirt cheap. We do them here all the time
Its interesting that Rasmussen is not conducting the poll and that Pulse research has every incentive to keep costs low
How much was Pulse research paid?????????????????????????
Probably peanuts
I think this was mostly an online BS poll

While I was looking up something, came across this news item from 2018.

Quote:

A 12-year-old Spartanburg preteen is recovering from burns on 40 percent of his body.

Fire officials tell 7News they believe the child was attempting to perform a dangerous challenge that’s picking up steam on social media.

The Spartanburg Fire Marshal says the “rubbing alcohol challenge” is when someone puts rubbing alcohol on their body and sets themselves on fire.

Rubbing alcohol is very flammable and when lit of fire can reach up to 1,000 degrees. Almost 7 times the temperate at which human skin burns.

Yes sir, what can you say about that idea.

Translation
Scott Adams is dumb enough to believe in an online poll
With a nationwide shortage of workers, most of this poll was probably online which makes it pretty much meaningless
Its telling that Rasmussen admits its a phone/online poll but gives no numbers on what % was online :-)
I'm surprised Tyler Durden or Pepe Escobar arent citing this poll as gospel.
Who knows, maybe they are lol

Elon Musk jumping the shark
I don't think many intelligent people respect his political and social views anymore
The guy is pretty crazy
He hates the Thai rescue divers. Yup, crazy

My favorite Elon story from the past month is that he had an absolute meltdown when President Biden’s Super Bowl tweet got more interactions that his own. He then had the algorithm changed so everyone would see a bunch of his tweets.

I hardly ever go to Twitter
Why is Twitter so important to the rightys???????
Tanko actually complained that it took the Transportation secretary 2 days to tweet about an accident.
???????????
I don't get it
Who cares if he tweeted or not
I certainly don't care
Tanko and rightys care alot.
Why?????????????????
