Clever-39%

Offensive-12%

Neither-40%

Not Sure-8%

Also, the question doesn’t refer to Nazism at all, it just asks if it’s offensive or not. It’s very possible much of that 12% find it offensive without thinking it’s promoting Nazis.

Like it could simply be that some people wish it featured people of different races and body types without instantly jumping to NAZIS!!!!

Fair, but I would argue that being offended by that is just as stupid and ridiculous.

Sure but there are levels of offended and different reasons to be offended, if those 12% were asked further questions like:

How offensive did you find it?

-mildly

-moderately

-extremely

Which best describes why you find it offensive?

-Lacks racial/body diversity

-Promotes stereotypes

-Too sexualized

-Promotes Eugenics/Nazism

-I don’t like Sydney Sweeney

Depending on how people answer these questions, it could possibly be more like 3-4% of people would be considered “radicalized”.

I would agree that someone who is extremely offended and thinks it promotes Nazism while making a big deal about it online is radical but I wouldn’t say the same thing for someone who finds it mildly offensive for lacking diversity or being too sexual and isn’t making a big fuss about it.
