It's a known phenomenon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_persecution_complex
Though seems to me that persecution narrative must be pushed top-down by a minority, if 96% of the actual people vote "No".

Christians don't get persecuted for being Christians.
They get persecuted for acting like insufferable assholes. Don't do that and there won't be a problem.
lemme guess....
25 persons voted, including the moron that created this 'poll'.
(24/25 is exactly 96 percent)
A religion that has a building dedicated to it on every street corner does not get to claim they are persecuted.
Yeah, one of the things that made me doubt my religious upbringing was the preacher repeatedly saying that Christians are a persecuted minority to a Sunday crowd of some 3000 people, in a church people nicknamed "Fort God" for its massive size, in a town where "on every street corner" really isn't much of an exaggeration. In hindsight, it was laughably ridiculous.
Also, the literal military-worship on Sundays near Memorial Day and Veterans Day was a bit jarring even to the young, good-little-Christian me.
They're so persecuted, they're afraid of answering yes on this poll! Incontrovertible evidence of Christian persecution!
People who are kind, considerate, and compassionate towards others do get persecuted.
People who don't tip at Cracker Barrel on a Sunday after church probably should be persecuted.
Lizardman's constant (the percent of people who will give a stupid answer in a survey, for fun) is also 4%.
Ain't nonya bein' persecuted.
The Christians that feel prosecuted are those who bang on your door in order to convert you and get reported for being intrusive and breaking some laws.
You know what persecution is? Having to pay taxes.
Churches should pay taxes and stop persecuting the rest of us. Churches are everywhere, not paying property taxes and many other benefits that NO other non-profits/charities receive; we all have to pay for their share.
the yes people are likely far right christians, which arnt really true christians.
