US survey 2021

Earth is flat, not round

10% agree 9% unsure 80% disagree

With statistics like this, no state of affairs will surprise me. Perhaps needless to say, there's no reason to think whole 80% is reasonable; you'd expect a smooth gradient going across the 19%/80%, not through the 1% (which is lost in rounding I guess) but perhaps through most of the society, with only a small fraction of it being truly reasonable.

The educational system succeeded in teaching writing and reading, and not with much more, not when it comes to masses.
