You are committing a logical fallacy called "affirming the consequent".
Or he's not pushing a narrative that those individuals are ludfites afraid of tech and are dumber than others?

Mengala would be proud
My dude, do you know what statistics is? The paper doesn't say anything of that sort. Measuring the proportion of people who hold a particular belief is nothing like what you describe
My dude. That is not science or statistics. That is having people fill out forms and having answers interpreted. Which begs the biasing questions and wording, which brings in other questions.
I used to work as a person who asked people these questions. It ain't science, Its targeted questions.
So no. It's not science or statistics. It's media metrics.
