Tbh that’s better than I expected. 2% with basically no organization (and what we do have started from zero not long ago) in the heart of the imperial core while - relatively speaking - times have been good for decades now. Learning about the humble beginnings of the Bolsheviks, the CPC, the dozens of communists who started the Cuban revolution… it encourages me to know you can start with a small base and grow massively when the conditions allow.

Why doubt the results when you can doubt the methodology?

I'm guessing they're referencing this poll

The POLITICO Poll was conducted by Public First from Dec. 5 to Dec. 9, surveying 10,510 adults online, with at least 2,000 respondents each from the U.S., Canada, the U.K., France and Germany. Results were weighted to be representative of each country in terms of age, gender and geography. The overall margin of sampling error is ±2 percentage points for each country. Smaller subgroups have higher margins of error.
