A recent Pew Research Center poll reveals that 67% of Americans view Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg unfavorably, with 26% expressing very unfavorable sentiments. Despite his attempts at a more appealing image, including a new wardrobe and style, his popularity has declined since the previous year. This appears linked to his shift in company strategy towards anti-woke sentiment and the rollback of diversity guidelines. The ongoing rivalry with Elon Musk may further influence public opinions about him, contributing to a negative portrayal among the populace.
Between January 27 and February 3 of this year, Pew contacted more than 5,000 people by telephone or online to ask them about their familiarity and favorability rankings for various political and business figures.
The polling comes after Zuckerberg's semi-recent image turn from the robotic nerd who loved Sweet Baby Ray's hot sauce to the most pre-divorced man Silicon Valley has ever seen.
Just look at polling from The Tech Oversight Project last year, which found that about 65 percent of roughly 500 people polled viewed Zuckerberg unfavorably.
It seems to be a byproduct of a reactionary shift that isn't just limited to stupid comments about "masculine energy" on broey podcasts.
