I think the headline is misleading, the poll question is:

Protesting Milo Yiannopoulos: Good for them vs Ridiculous

And ridiculous is winning, but it is quite possible to think that the protest was ridiculous while disagreeing with Yiannopoulos.

    No, it's even farther off; you've still confused the spun title of the page with the actual question, which is listed below the graph showing the offered responses a d the results; the question is "UC Berkeley students violently protesting a controversial conservative figure speaking at their school?"

    Even most of the protestors opposed the small violent group, it's probably more accurate to summarize the result as "Millennials oppose violence in political protests."

    Of course, it's clear that it was framed to get a certain response that would then be spun to mean something completely different as pure political propaganda.

      And even that question blaming UC Berkeley students is wrong too, as it is not clear at all exactly who were were the violent protesters.
