So, a better title would be "Over half of New Yorkers are supportive of democratic socialism"?

Without seeing the data, we can't say that, there could be undecided in there that still means most don't support it. I'm going to look into it but I'm wondering if they are using the term New Yorkers to mean those from New York state or you know...just lying.

Edit: yup, they mean ny state and there are plenty of brainwashed people outside of city limits.

The headline as written already includes undecideds as they fall into the "unsupportive" category.

Huh, funny that all the other comments from this crosspost are over two weeks old. Why is that OP?

I may have been slightly a little intoxicated making that comment

Could it be that OP cross posted a two week old post to a different community today? No, it couldn't be that simple...

Yeah, but why?

[–] Alexfire@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

More than half support, yay!
