    I trust people speaking unfiltered on the web more than polls. Does anyone not from a corporation or under 70 years old even participate in those anymore?

      But the sample size is 15 people. Do you trust cherry picking 15 people out of thousands a good way to judge national trends?

        I believe it’s just as accurate. Especially with the way the poll questions are phrased

          You do understand that there are thousands of comments on these posts and they’re selecting 10 or so to write an article, right? Do you think cherry picking 10 people who are upset illustrates any kind of trend? Can’t you see how this article is disingenuous ?

            The article, yeah. But observing social media anecdotally provides much more than 15 examples of those who believe this way. Then I can correlate that with what I know from the people I’m actually around every day, and the words of the minister on TV Sunday mornings warning about changing your DNA with vaccines to his 1500 member congregation.

            I’m just saying it seems no less accurate than a poll, and is unfiltered by biased questions
