Not really.

What questions are they using? How do they translate to the scale graphed? Where's the methodology?

So what's the data source?

I read the article a bit. They relied on people to self-identify their own persuasions instead of asking them specific questions in different phrasing and parsing the actual political standing of the interviewed.

This leads to the all-too-common person who supports labor rights and environmental protections and identifies as a liberal-hating conservative. Probably more than half the country fits that stereotype, so brainwashed they have become.

hearing an obviously dirt-poor man tell me that he always voted republican, cause they are for the little-guy, while Fox was on in the background, was heartbreaking. doubly so cause I was sure I couldn't persuade him otherwise.

Fuck MK-Ultra, just controlling the media is often enough for mind-control.

Which was just as Justice Powell said. And as Joe Overton says to this day.
