Should be a lot higher, but that’s a start i guess.
Given the lack of mainstream media coverage it’s a very good start.
Mainstream is lapping up Israel “smol bean” rhetoric so hard. The fact that so many people can see around that is intensely good. And that’s a bit sad, but hopeful.
Its about the same number of people who think it is a genocide as think its not a genocide
According to the Economist/YouGov poll, roughly equal numbers of adults believe Israel’s military campaign against Palestinians, which is estimated to have killed more than 25,000 people since 7 October, amounts to genocide: 35% say it is, 36% say it isn’t, with 29% undecided.
Half of voters for President Biden in 2020 believe the Israeli government is committing a genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, according to a YouGov/The Economist poll released Thursday.
The poll also found that 51 percent of Biden 2020 voters believe the Israeli government’s ground invasion of Gaza is “too harsh,” and 58 percent of the same group believe the conflict is “likely” to widen into a greater Middle East war.
That’s significantly higher than I expected it to be, given the media influence and funding to suggest otherwise.
I don’t blame the large margin of US people who are unsure.
