- KDog watches the rally from the inside out

In this case, by implying that only a ""minority"" of 20% believes May Day is devoted to protest, the announcer is indirectly highlighting the contrast between that minority and the majority. This creates social pressure on the audience to align with the ""majority"" perspective that May Day is associated with spring celebrations. By asking ""What do you think?"" immediately after citing the minority percentage, the announcer is inviting viewers to reflect upon their opinions and potentially question or reconsider their own thoughts, unconsciously siding with the larger group.

Basic thought control and the peril of being a social animal. If I wanted to find a more appropriate video I could, but this video presents the flip side of the same coin, that's good enough.
