In that post an extremely dubious poll was shared and many people took it as fact without reviewing the source. The source was a polling firm thar served ads in mobile apps in exchange for premium features in those apps. The firm that ordered the poll had no previous polling experience, and was extremely sketchy.
The joke here is that side walk chalk poll has as much credibility as that poll did. Also, this is kind of a way to share that the other poll was really bad as most people probably didn’t see the info about its quality in the comments.

For a bunch of people who just accepted that “vibes” were the leading factor in the election, y’all seem to be having a lot of trouble understanding that the support for Luigi is purely vibes.
People are upset about healthcare in the US screwing them over. Some dude decided to stick it to one of the people profiting off of that system that’s screwing people over. People are gonna celebrate that dude because of the symbolism of it

This is like learning Selzer was full of shit all over again!
How does Nate Silver rate this pollster?
This is obviously a joke, but I posted this as a psuedo response to this thread that made it to the top of the sub reddit earlier today.
