Several reasons. Some people weren’t as plugged in to the media zeitgeist of 2016 as they are now, some are (shudder) mathematicians, and some just don’t see the problem with polls.
And, sadly, some are social scientists who are on board with quantitative survey results. Hey - it happens.
I mean, yeah, but even statisticians should understand that rando internet people would feel the way that the original commenter does. It makes perfect sense.
After 2016 I have no idea how this comment would be downvoted
