Philosophy, Religion & Society / Trump shill accounts are resurfacing
« on: June 25, 2022, 11:10:43 PM »
It would seem that many of the pro-Trump YT accounts from 2016 are preparing to resurface. Here's one example:
Call me cynical, but I don't think these are just Regular People™ who happen to love Trump. I wonder what's in store for us.

ITT: Brag about how much you've donated and what a great person you are.
I just donated £69.69, which at the time of my donation placed me at #59 on the leaderboard. I'm sure that won't last.
More seriously: there's some good games to be had, so go and have them.

Flat Earth Media / 4% of Poles Believe the Earth is Flat
« on: July 21, 2021, 10:19:50 AM »
It would seem that the Polish Nationwide Research Group conducted research into Polish citizens' belief in "conspiracy theories" in late January 2021. The original source appears to be behind a paywall (and it wouldn't take my credit card - I swear I'm not that broke; I'll keep trying), but a couple of news articles in relatively reputable media have covered it as a story:
https://www.polsatnews.pl/wiadomosc/2021-02-26/11-proc-polakow-uwaza-ze-amerykanie-nie-wyladowali-na-ksiezycu-4-proc-ze-ziemia-jest-plaska/
https://wiadomosci.radiozet.pl/Polska/Teorie-spiskowe-w-Polsce.-4-proc.-wierzy-ze-Ziemia-jest-plaska.-11-proc.-nie-wierzy-w-ladowanie-na-Ksiezycu
Unfortunately, I was unable to find anything in English, but Google Translate seems to spit out a pretty reasonable translation for these.
Based on these articles, it would seem that:
According to both articles, this poll was performed on a sample size of 1001 Polish adults, which is pretty impressive for such a niche subject. I hope we can get to the original source to see if there's more detail to get out of it. If anyone has more luck with it than I did, help would be very much appreciated.

Based on these articles, it would seem that:
- 4% of Poles believe that the Earth is flat, significantly lagging behind the 11% of moon landing sceptics
- The belief is particularly popular in smaller cities and towns, at 5.6%
- The age group most likely to believe in a Flat Earth is around the age of 30, with just over 6% of believers
- 5% of Law and Justice (PiS) voters believe the Earth is flat, in stark contrast to 0% among Polish People's Party (PSL) voters. Similarly, PiS voters are much more likely to believe that the moon landing was a hoax, with those voting for the Left Together (Lewica Razem) being least likely to follow this belief.
