People trust the fucking police and army more than unions. That’s just a fucking sad state.

Not in the US, but my mom works for a really bad union whose greatest accomplishment seems to be giving employees paid 15-minute breaks every 4 hours or so.

The union talks big about protecting employees, but really only protects them the way that an HR department would.

That's a century of anti-union propaganda at work.

Who are these people who do not have confidence in the criminal justice system but do have confidence in the police?

Oh yeah, fascists.

Why don't all the rows have the same length? Did fewer people answer the question about newspapers than about banks?

That is a disturbing and surprising level of confidence in the police. I’m definitely in some kind of bubble.

This poll was taken June of 2024. I wonder if things have changed since then.

The one thing that gives hope about this graph is that people have so little trust in Congress. Democracy doesn't work unless you mistrust elected officials.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
