I’m sure it’s true, but do we poll over everything now? I feel like there are better, more scientific sources to use than a CBS poll.
I just saw a poll about Bluetooth headphones being unhealthy for you earlier so I just feel like this in general and am using this as a place to put my thoughts tbh.
I just feel like we are putting to much faith into opinions of the “masses”, and believing what we read online.
A lot of things can be actually proven in other ways.
iMessage is one of the largest enablers of ostracization and teen bullying
This feels like a strange trivialization of teenage bullying thought up by someone who hasn’t been a teenager in a long timr.
I hate that I feel like I have to disclaimer that this is just thinking, and not justification or anything… But it’s a sensitive topic
But my thought is if we considered all bloggers as journalists… I feel like we’d have to consider people in WW2 who kept journals as well.
Again, not trying to take away from anything. I guess I just think considering internet hobbies as professions is weird in general. Like “rapper kills rapper” news story… But the rappers have a few songs on SoundCloud with like 10 listens.
I know, this isn’t a fun question, but it’s honest curiosity…
Do you think a contributing factor in the number difference is the amount of modern “journalist”? Like bloggers being considered journalists?
But in the end, it’s all fucked up and every death is a tragedy, no matter the profession or side.
True.
But this is also another volunteer, likely anonymous, YouGov internet poll that people are taking as fact again. Lemmy is flooded with them and they have no value
Here’s another YouGov poll post from a few days ago if you want to read discussion why they are/these posts are clickbait trash
