I use Prolific to do (mostly) academic surveys for money, and I usually lie on whatever I can’t get away with to submit more. The only time when I don’t lie is if the studies pertain to serious matters like suicide, abuse, mental illness, etc. But if it’s some shit like “what website design d you find more appealing” I’m shitting through them

Eh. How hard can it be to control a nuclear sub ? Give me 5-10 min with it and im sure I figure it out very-smart

Kids these days don't know how hard it was to operate nuclear subs with whistle tips in the early aughts.

Is this just Pew saying their research can't be trusted?

If you’re 20-30 and your circle isn’t discussing

obtaining forklift certification
driving a nuclear submarine
reporting OSHA violations

Then it’s time to elevate your circle

Seems kind of rude to assume all those people are lying just because "the numbers don't add up"

Sounds like their "opt-in" polls got trolled pretty hard.
