  • It's worth a read for more than just that.

    Our guy wrote a book about the working class and immigrants being taken advantage of, and how they need to stand up for worker's rights and unions. And the American public focused on their food being gross.

  • It's a different question. Something like "How do you approve of Donald Trump's job as president?" instead of "How favorably do you view Donald Trump?" Exactly what question you ask, and how you ask it, can make a big difference on how people answer.

  • A bunch of random thoughts I've had about this over the years.

    If you want to use a hard right lens you can interpret some Star Trek stuff in a way that aligns with your worldview.

    • Starfleet is a pseudo-military organization. Rank is very very important. They're the best of the best, and they come to save the day often with phasers blazing.
    • Sure the humans are egalitarian, but each race has its own behaviors and personality types and traits: Klingons are aggressive, Ferengi are greedy, Romulans are duplicitous, Bajorans are spiritual, etc.
    • (idk about this one) Men are more "important?" in older trek. Women were sexualized more. In TNG after Tasha died, the leading women were a doctor and a counselor. And they put poor Troi through so many tropes, including random pregnancy and those tight outfits.
