This is a universal problem that is not understood well enough. If you
want to know what people actually think, you have to a) actively survey
them, and b) control for biases in the responses. This is a nontrivial
process. Anything else tells you at best what memes are trendy[1], and
at worst what factions are committed to entryism[2]. ;-)
