The grip is slipping, everyone sees through this bullshit

Social media is not real life. Most of its users are the people we usually try to ignore.

In properly weighted opinion polls, where we only ask the people who we usually ask for opinions, the results show that we were right all along.

It doesn’t matter how popular Israel is or isn’t. They are murdering civilians.

Popularity has nothing to do with it. If 99% of the world population supported Israel, they are still wrong.
Is The Economist arguing that morality comes from popularity?

Yes, the wonders of bourgeois democracy.

Except when majority of people supports the wrong country, like 90%+ of support for CPC in China or Crimean referendum, then it don’t count because authoritarianism.

Ok, let’s see real life then. (Looks out the window to see massive protests across the world in support of Palestine.)

I’m starting to think that maybe the Economist’s office isn’t in the “real world” either…

“That’s only the few hundred thousands out of dozens of millions, so minority” - The Economist, probably, using the same methodology.

Those protesters are the same people who don’t count when they post online.
