Yeah but polls routinely show that 4% of people think Obama is a lizard: https://slatestarcodex.com/2013/04/12/noisy-poll-results-and... Very often you do encounter polls these days where an absurdly huge number of people give hilariously trollish answers to pollsters, and then people take the resulting polls completely seriously. Pollsters try to include 'attention check' questions to catch basic issues like people just pressing yes to every question, but I do see very often polls that quite obviously can't match reality without anyone noticing it. There's something about maths that switches people's brains off. |
