"QAnon Now as Popular in U.S. as Some Major Religions" [View all]

Atheists and agnostics foiled again. But Democrats, any of them, believe this shit? No way. No way. No way. But they say 7%...we are fucked if true. 7% is a tipping point.

"Twenty-eight percent of Republicans polled said that they agreed with the statement, along with 13 percent of independents and 7 percent of Democrats."

7% of Democrats??

I get that almost 30% of the repukes, and 13% of the idiots that are "independent", believe in basic ideas of Q anon even if they don't have a membership card. But 7% of Democrats? Good gawd...

Basic idea: "the government and other entities are controlled by Satan-worshipping pedophiles running a child sex trafficking ring"

Is this a bullshit poll?

"The survey was conducted online between March 8 and March 30 among 5,149 adults in the U.S. The margin of error is plus or minus 1.5 percentage points."

That's traditionally good margin of error. Over 5k polled, another good quality. But are online polls the thing now? How does that work? Chat instead of a call at dinner? Polling sucks in the age of mobile phones and practically zero landlines. I mean look at the election polls since 2016. A hot mess. And dangerous to everyone.
