Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

this is what happens when you dismantle education. good job, conservatives. the collapse can’t come fast enough.
Gambling at 50% “not a moral issue” is crazy
Infidelity? Of course the worst thing someone can engage in, obviously.
Killing people for punishment with a a clear an obvious error rate that leaves innocent people murdered by the state? 'Well, you see…"
Wish these examples had been ranked as well as asked individually. Like “place these in order from most to least morally acceptable”. Cuz the death penalty and viewing porn are morally unacceptable to 34% and 52% respectively, but I think if you really wanted to know how cooked we are as a society, you’d wanna know what percentage think the latter is genuinely morally worse than the former.
Still interesting though. And, ya know. Horrifically depressing.
It is wild to me that homosexuality is still a more contentious topic in this country than literal life or death policies with very real considerations of severe human suffering like the death penalty or access to euthanasia.
I don’t think this is a list of priorities like the title claims, it appears to be ordered by disapproval, unless I’m missing something.
Based off of the answers for being extremely rich I have zero respect for what any of these people think.
Thanks for sharing, now I really want to go cry. I hate this country.
It makes me so mad how much worse alcohol is than weed and yet people think weed is morally worse, fml
Imprisoning, torturing, and killing animals = A-OK
2 consenting adults of the same gender having sex = whoa, too far!
Its completely absur that assisted suicide (35%) is almost the same as the death penalty (34%)
Wow people don’t realize how morally wrong it is to have billionaires. I guess we’re surrounded by morons
this the culture war bs conservatives are indoctrinated to be concerned with. notice how none of them even mentioning tax, public services, insurance , billionaires.
Some of these percentages are really depressing.
My family’s from the South. I have seen some shit you wouldn’t believe.
But 4-in-10 finding homosexuality “morally wrong” is jaw dropping, to me. Another 23%, just “acceptable.” In 2026?
WTF.
I thought homophobes were dying out, but apparently not.
