I think you are interpreting evidence to support your preferred narrative without considering alternative explanations. Which is what i meant by politically convinent.

> Ordinary people aren't fighting for stripping environment regulations, or clamoring to make defense contractors billions of dollars.

Ordinary (working class people) people who work in those industries tend to be ok with it (arguably that is what makes capitalism insidious).

> "Only" 57%? 57% is 'most'. By any and every definition.

> And if you compare that to the ~3% (at absolute max) of media and political figures who argue for public healthcare, you may start to see what the problem is.

57% is a little more than half, which suggests the issue isn't correlated very strongly with class given you are counting only at most 3% as upper class.

Remember that if this issue had nothing to do with class you would expect 50% support (assuming the actual relavent variable was equally present in the sample group). The baseline is not 0% (or 3%) as that is what would happen if it was a class issue in the opposite direction (what you would get if lower classes hated the idea). ~50% suggests it is not a class issue but has some other cause that is more evenly distributed in the sample group.

Obviously this survey is the wrong type of survey to determine much of anything since its not broken down by demographics.

> This class war which we are all in (whether we are aware of it or not) has casualties; one of them is our more vulnerable and easily manipulated brethren. That's why it's "only" 57% - because lifelong propaganda does indeed have an effect, especially on the easily swayed.

Convinent that anyone who disagrees is just being manipulated.

I'm not neccesarily even saying that is untrue - propaganda exists for a reason; it can be very effective. However if you assume everyone who disagrees is swayed that is a dangerous path. Its non-falsifiable. How do you distinguish between people swayed by propaganda and people who legitamently disagree. Hell, if you are going down this path, why do you assume the 57% that want free healthcare are the real preference instead of the swayed by propaganda group? When you start believing this type of thing it starts to become pointless since you can always spin it as if everyone agrees with you regardless of if they actually do.
