MODERATORS
Meanwhile in Germany, somewhere around 12 % are satisfied with the work of Chancellor Friedrich Merz with somewhere around 85 % actively disapproving.
Don't get me wrong, I too am far from satisfied with the work of Chancellor Merz, but with all his faults he is still far away from being anywhere near as awful as Trump.
The fuck is wrong with the 4 other assholes?
And 4/10 don't understand why Homelander is a bad guy
4/10 think history class framing US slavery as wrong and Nazi's were the bad guys in WW2 is "liberal propaganda"
Four in ten Americans are mentally impaired
you know, maybe Thanos had a point
With the way this timeline is going, the 50% of those snapped would be from the 6/10
Yeah, the real question is Thanos wearing a maga hat
It is really worrisome news.
The media manipulation of the rich works too well.
No free country can survive without publicly funded independent media.
Lol.
Without a doubt the worst president in U.S. history and we're only at 6 of 10?
This nation is a fucking clown car flying off a cliff made of clowns into a black hole of endless Mandelbrot clowns.
To be clear, this country is far, far too stupid for anything other than continued collapse to happen even after this pedophile is being eaten by worms.

4 in 10 Americans be like
Unfortunately it seems that 8 in 10 Americans also think the Democrats are "just as bad".
8/10 Americans think Trump is bad but Kamala laughed funny
As someone who voted for Kamala Harris.. I really wish people would stop pretending like she was a good candidate. She was the better candidate.. relative to a sentient bag of shit. To be fair, the fact that the democrats were split on whether or not incinerating children was okay, probably meant that they were doomed to lose the election no matter who they ran..
sentient
Arguable, he has zero internal monologue and has to express everything he comes up with immediately out loud. If he's sentient, a LLM is too.
"To make our perfect president we stuck a we-have-Grok-at-home LLM into a trashbag full of molding human(?) waste, and gave it access to social media. We're geniuses."
--The Gross Old Pedo party, probably

4 are fine with this. Which is terrifying.
This. The take home here is that the people are still 40% stupid.
I mean.....6 years ago it was 48%.
So that's......progress?
The important question is how many of that 60% would vote for him or another R, again.
And that answer is going to be depressingly high.

Plenty of dumb racist pedo protecting bastards in the survey.
4 in 10 are propagandized to shit
No, at least 3 in 10 genuinely agree with what he's doing, have always thought this way, and are glad that behavior like his can be shown out in the open without consequences now.

4 outa 10 people are fucking stupid.
4 in 10 aren't paying attention and/or are bad people and bad citizens.
Not paying attention isn't an excuse after a decade. They're bad people at best and traitors at worst.

Always that 30-40%.
Oh look, another 6/10 survey. File it with the “2/3 of Americans aren’t massive idiots” and “60 to 70% of people agree good things are good and bad things are bad” surveys.
It’s the drawer next to the “51% vote for nonsense” drawer.

Chat, we’re pretty sure those numbers are wrong… more like 9/10
Those numbers are higher than the 30% that voted for him. Sounds like he’s doing well.
weird, 6 in 10 Americans didn't turn up to vote against him
6:4, isn't that the ratio its always been?
40% of Americans say president is not doing a bad job.
In other news, 4 in 10 Americans should either be launched into the sun or hung for treason.

That means they'll gerrymander that 40% to the top, block votes from as many as they can from the 60% and ICE the people that would decrease that 40% even a bit.
