A reminder, of course, that it's very important you choose your sample carefully. 30 may be statistically significant, and 20,000 may seem like an enormous sample size, but if your sample population is a facebook group for 'Moms who knit tiny sweaters for dogs' and your sample itself is self-reported/opt in from this group, it's still a very narrow representation of any greater population as a whole.
It's like every time Fox purports that Biden is the most unpopular president yet- yeah, according to whom, Fox viewers? Perhaps the Pew Research Center (originating from conservative family and founders of the Sunoco oil company), which is funded in parts by the Templeton Foundation (seeking to increase the intersection of religion and science, supporting christian bias in religious studies, promoting intelligent design, and funding conservative think tanks) and the Pew Charitable Trusts, which funds the Texas Public Policy Foundation, which supports school vouchers, promote fossil fuel use, and reject climate change?
Now, I don't know the metrics nor the article from the New York Times, so I won't say that the poll results shouldn't be alarming, but it's generally very important to scrutinize the process behind a poll, who they're asking, and why. And also to take a good hard look at who claims to be nonpartisan and what their motivations are (or where their money comes from).
