Scariest poll I have yet seen regarding Democrats

[OrangeTsar]

Home is where the heart is, it will be like Summer camp!!

That is actually the claim made by the evil fascist Aussie government.

 

[n_huffhines]

Nearly half (48 percent) favor fines or IMPRISONMENT for even questioning covid vaccine effectiveness in social media. That’s right, basically half of Democrats would send you to jail if you post a message here on Volnation saying that the vaccine doesn’t prevent infection. They really ARE the party of evil…..

this is crazy, but also you gotta love that the numbers clearly aren't scary enough. The author had to go off the rails with it:

If they polled CNN journalists, or just journalists in general, this number would be even higher. If they polled Google employees or Twitter executives, likewise. Closer to 100%.

Definitely unwarranted speculation, but it would not surprise me in the least if it turned out to be true

Compared to today’s Democrats, JFK was a radical conservative

Compared to today's Republicans, too.

It might be true, but the point is why ruin good information with irresponsible, biased speculation?

 

[n_huffhines]

Oh, I see your point. The 59% only want me confined to my HOME, instead of a camp (only 48%). At least the gulag will feel like home.

To be clear, it's "fine or imprisonment", so for all we know, only 10% are OK with imprisonment and the other 38% were only OK with a fine.

It's still wrong, but it's not the same thing as saying 48% want you in a camp. They really ****ed up by combining the 2 punishments.

[NurseGoodVol]

That’s crazy, but look how these things try to skew the appearance.

Forty-five percent (45%) of Democrats would favor governments requiring citizens to temporarily live in designated facilities or locations if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Such a policy would be opposed by a strong majority (71%) of all voters, with 78% of Republicans and 64% of unaffiliated voters saying they would Strongly Oppose putting the unvaccinated in “designated facilities.”

——————-
45% democrats would favor
78% republicans strongly oppose
64% unaffiliated strongly oppose

Which leads to question what about the 55% of democrats that oppose, do they oppose strongly?

Do the 22% of Republicans favor?

Yet the headline says

Dems want unvaxxed put in CAMPS.

Which can be construed so many ways, especially to fuel the fear and divide.

I highly doubt adding fuel to the fear or diving is on your top ten list

 

[NurseGoodVol]

Well, remember, taking away our freedoms is for our own good of course. It’s only because the left just cares about us so darn much

Sarcasm noted.

 

[VOLS INC.]

Well, remember, taking away our freedoms is for our own good of course. It’s only because the left just cares about us so darn much

Maybe if we stay in time-out long enough, we will become “woke” and join them.

 

[DinkinFlicka]

that site constantly points out the ludicrous views and actions of the Democrat party, therefore it’s horrible

It's horrible because it's clearly a heavily biased source. I know you're pretty much keistering the red kool aid so, to your eyes, it looks like a perfectly normal news source. To the rest of the sane world, it's a jumbled mess with bad photoshops and corny ass headlines borne of a fracture mind.

So how the hell did the author get 48% out of 13% + 14%?

I found 48% of Democrats willing to deny freedom in an egregious manner stunning. 27% sounds more like it.

Examine the source. The site looks like every single one of my uncle's chain emails f**ked and had a baby.

Not doubting the study's numbers... just how your source interprets them. It's bad journalism.

Why can't you just post the numbers, and let the discussion form the narrative? Why do you guys always post content from the toilet scrubbing brush of media sources?

I dunno, for the group who constantly moans about CNN, you sure love to post the most absurd news sites.

Stick to sources like these... not one's in your OP. You lose all credibility when you source dog sh*t like therightscoop.

You've got to go deep into the crosstabs to get to the really rich data as divided by sub demographic. There are some far more interesting narratives deep in the data than was teased out by the think tank that commissioned the study.

And saying that a solid majority of Democrat respondents oppose restrictive measures - a completely valid understanding of the data as presented - wouldn't help the desire of the commissioning body to paint all Democrats as a cohesive restrictive lot.

See, sources like Fox, CNN, MSNBC are meant to dupe people in the 80-100 IQ range... your OP source is meant to entertain the minds in the 40-60 range.

Now break it out by the lines alluded to in the OP, Dems, Repub, and Independent. I mean that was after all the point of the original claim.

You’re approaching the level of bad behavior here that you claim to be screeching about.

He listed the total respondents without the party breakdown. He’s using the same loaded phraseology he’s complaining about.

That's in the crosstabs. Also includes response breakdown by age, education level, income, parenting status, and race. Much harder to pull that data out

 

[C-south]

Aren't the risks for myocarditis even higher if you contract covid?

Well since the vaccine doesn’t prevent anything wouldn’t getting double your risk?

 

[AshG]

He listed the total respondents without the party breakdown. He’s using the same loaded phraseology he’s complaining about.

I copied and pasted straight from the Rasmussen site. No nefarious or ill intent. I also included the crosstabs table links. Are you really going to blame me for providing all the information as aggregated by the polling company?

 

[GVF]

This has to be a parody publication or something, yet I get criticized for posting anything. Make it make sense.

You obviously have not took a step back and objectively viewed your battery of meme attempts from everyone else's vantage point. And it's not just one here or there. You are an OCD meme poster.
