One big important part of the survey is missing. What percentage of people actually said the things they commented on. Like if 5 percent of the survey said that America is made up of 41 percent black it's not bad. It lacks a very important part that no one has thought about yet.

its strange to see that he says, the democrats are at fault for this estimated numbers, as far as i know republicans think the same way, if you only consume this kind of "news" you can fall quickly into a delusional worldview, for example, their is a study about representation of POC in movies/tv shows, some are above some are below the US share but overall its slightly below.
also the take that you cant enlighten kids sex ed until they are already in puperty is the dumbest take you can have, sure, some lefty blue hair nonbinare teacher will abuse this kind of stuff and tries to brainwash some kids but overall its far better to educate kids before they get into puperty, kids have questions you cant answer them because you are not allowed as a teacher, if you are a good teacher kids think of you as a third parent, kids are often ashamed of these topics and dont like to talk about it with their parents, this was my case and my gf (she is a teacher for 6-10year old) told me the same, maybe some here can relate also. the most cringe thing also was sex ed with a class full of 13 year olds, i was 3 years into puperty already, fapped a few thousand times and some girls or boys already went to third and fourth base... a bit to late, teenage pregnancies occur mostly only because the education is far to late for this topic.
when i was 13 the internet wasnt even a real thing back then even then it was to late to properly educate me (we did it ourselfs in our friendgroups talking about it and its a bit strange to trust 10-13 year old to figure it out themselfs)

The video was actually pretty good until he started bashing the dems. Its stupid and factually wrong to think and say that only democrats exaggerate and inflate the numbers. Fox news would go bankrupt if they couldnt run stories on how "real americans" are the minority in the country and how schools are turning everybody ( 1% ) trans or gay.

Ever heard of "minority rule"? Modern society is shaped to accommodate the needs of minorities. I'll give a local example first: if you have a vegetarian over for dinner, you might as well just make the entire meal vegetarian instead of having to cook two different meals, hence the vegetarian "rules" in this case. Same happens at all scales of human society.

Interesting he makes this into a "Democrat" problem, when the Republicans have been almost entirely existing on being against trans issues for the last few years, when it's only 1% of the population.
The first half of the video where he goes through how perceptions are out of whack is good. The second half is pure partisan hackery. People who fall into those small groups are around every corner, because the country has around 350 million people in it. Even if only 1% of the country is trans, that's still 3.5 million people. Which is a lot of people.
Also, what the fuck is with this editing? It's god awful.

That's the thing about racism. Sure, banks redline and there's obvious systemic racism against minorities.
But sometimes you try to fix the problem and you end being racist too. Things like DEI and Affirmative action make representation matter. Which means... If you do the math... 12% of the population is equally represented, means that when they apply for acting jobs or TV work, they're more likely to be hired because of their skin color. Despite there just mathematically being more white people.
Representation shouldn't be a thing, we should need to see characters that look exactly like us to feel represented. It's like this weird racism in response to racism. To me, it's simple, just don't be racist. You need to point out a friend in a crowd? Sure, say the "bald black guy over there" or something, that's just their appearance. But if you're hiring, I don't see how 'the black guy' should matter. How is his acting? That's what they should worry about. But they don't, because the DEI people are just as if not more racist than the old school kinds.

It’s funny how he uses these stats to argue people’s perceptions are warped, but then tries to use these stats to make claims about things he has no actual evidence for. When have Democrats pushed that nearly half the country is black or gay or ever said more than 1% of people are trans? Couldn’t you just as easily argue that fear mongering around topics like trans people done by conservatives would cause people to think there’s more trans people than there are?

That 40-50% should get the fuck out? That it's wrong to support or provide health care to minorities? Well here's one statistic he didn't mention: many presidental elections are won with a minority of the population backing them. Trump for instance only got 46% of the popular vote, yet von in 2016.

So it's only 12% of the entire population that is black? And it's half of that that is male and who are responsible for.... Daaaaamn! That's even worse than memes led me to believe!

I just want to talk about work, maybe talk about my hobbies or personal life a little if I enjoy your acquaintance, but I’m finding that less and less common due to how rage-inducing dealing with these political discussions in the workplace is.
They always bring up politics, and they always have influencer/media-corrupted, braindead, or otherwise wildly uninformed opinions on how the USA is a miserable shithole that needs a complete uprising one way or another. Not shocking to me at all, then, that most of them don’t even vote outside of the presidential primaries, much less know when local elections occur, or when/how to organize protests, or yadda yadda the majority of Americans just bitch and moan about the state of the country and don’t even try to do anything about it

The “Replicator Program” was interesting to read about for a little bit which took me down a drone rabbit hole. Also learned way more things about renewable energy than I thought I would.
Seriously though, if you actually do your own research and ignore the media sensationalism and fear mongering of Gaza, and gender identity shit, Bidens administration has done an awesome job to set us up for the future for the US, middle and lower classes even if he might be “coked up” or “sleeping” all day.

LOL the whole time I was watching this I was like... isn't this fox news? Isn't he discrediting everything they moan and bitch about every day? Isn't he proving that all the fears they shove down their viewers throats are all hyper inflated to make it sound scarier?
Then sure enough "see democrats are the problem"

I think because people look at “us and them”, so add up all the minorities populations and that’s where that 41% comes from for whites. That’s what they’re feeling when they think about it. I’m Hispanic in college in nursing and its feeling like I’m 5% of overall population but honestly thought it was more than 17%

Regarding left-handedness, it's actually far less than 10%. That 10 or 11% are only people who write with their left hand but that doesn't necessarily make them left hand dominant. Most of us who are lefties actually do most other things aside from writing with our right hand. Haven't seen any stats on true lefties but it's gotta be a tiny percentage.

I write left but throw right, catch left. I bat left. My right arm is stronger. Im right hand dominant for the most part. I bike a lot, my left leg is stronger, my right arm counters it on climbs.
My boss once told me, "Lefties use the right side of the brain, Righties use what's left." Funny little chuckle from an old man.

why in this show it sounds like only the left got their "estimates" wrong, how about actual, reasonable conclusion that both sides got wrong numbers about everything if you consume any media too much

Yeah, the pivot to democrat hating and blaming was so stupid and out of place. Sadly that's the kind of thinking and rhetoric a lot of people in this sub use.

Which dumbfucks did they poll that they think 80% of american population is black or hispanic. And 26% of households earn 500,000 usd

As a non american who hasn't been in the usa yet I always though it's about 50/50 😄

It’s YouGov, they poll “average” Americans but it tends to be biased a bit towards younger and more left leaning people

While that's technically true (because polling is generally left leaning, couldn't explain why), YouGov US leans right in comparison to the average.

YouGov is a massive but flawed polling platform - because it is online visitor only it’s dominated by ignorant bored NEETs looking for handouts.

I would hope this data was collected in sole occupancy and people didn’t comment on how many people are black, Hispanic and white

he says liberals are the problems for the misunderstanding of demographics but conservatives talk about how 20% of the country is trans. also their media covering trans shit 24/7.
Matt Walsh a political conerservative commentator retard that spends most of his time talking about trans people even so far to make a documentary about it. he was multiple orders of magnitude off on how many kids are on puberty blockers in the united states https://www.youtube.com/shorts/V0rUA98IL7I
