Comment on Music just isn't good anymore
Thunderbird4@lemmy.world 3 hours agoI’d be very interested to see the age distribution of the people who were polled. It just says 2000 adults, but if they were all around the same age then it may not all be matters of opinion, especially for things like “political division.”

Judging by the footnote, it’s YouGov which isn’t a very good poll typically. That said, it’s likely got enough people across ages to standardize it properly. They probably do have a larger amount in one demo vs another, but you can simply weigh them differently to balance it out.
There’s probably plenty wrong with their methodology if we dig deeper though; these polls aren’t very scientific typically. With political division, it could be how they were asked, for instance.
