Solid data: To a large degree, progressives overestimate the prevalence of progressive views. Sobering. www.moreincommon.org.uk/our-work/res...
A chart shows that progressive activists often overestimate how many people hold progressive views, sometimes by 100 or even 200 percent. For example, progressive activists estimate that 25 percent of people hold the view "The government should allow more refugees into the country," when only 8 percent actually hold that view.
