The validated voter survey from Pew is finally out. Looks like Trump won Hispanic men and made improvements among other minorities. Biden won men 18-49 while Trump won this demographic back in 2024.

Some polling of Iranians from fall of 2024. Most Iranians say Iran's foreign policy is a cause of economic problems: And that it doesn't advance the well-being of ordinary citizens.

Most Israeli Jews (56%) support expulsion of Israeli Arabs: This seems to be slightly higher than it was in 2016:

Almost 20% of young black men are NEETs: Most male and female NEETs aren't disabled, don't have kids, and aren't looking for work

People say illegal immigrants, trans people black people and muslims face the most discrimination. It is worth pointing out that this list only loosely correlated to economic standing Muslims make a decent amount and gay men earn more than straight men. By party. There is most agreement about Jews and ruralites.

Since this came up yesterday, women are more supportive of trans rights than men. The 13 point gap is larger than what much of the polling on abortion finds. Feminists are also very supportive:

Short thread about the numerous errors in the post linked below.
First she cites the work of Paul Dolan claiming that married women are less happy. This is due to a misreading of the ATUS. @CathyReisenwitz If you are honest you will correct this.

Obviously we don't know how much is causal, but both married men and women are happier.

Some opinions I have that are left wing or otherwise possibly unpopular or contrarian in this sphere:
1. Toxic masculinity is real (but so is toxic femininity). 2. Depending on the definition, the idea of rape culture doesn't seem that unreasonable.

There is an interesting subreddit called r/BarbaraWalters4Scale (referencing the fact that Walters, MLK and Anne Frank were all born in 1929) with a interesting time comparisons. For example:
>Joe Biden was born closer to Lincolns presidency than his own.

https://twitter.com/cremieuxrecueil/status/1865829819461808219

>Obama is the only president to serve under the same flag he was born under
>Jimmy Carter lived through 41% of the independent US
>Nintendo existed at the same time as the Ottoman Empire
>Hitler was alive when the big chungus cartoon was released

The vast majority of those frequently rejected are men: 35% of single women say that all or most men would sexually take advantage of women if they had the chance.

If TikTok is banned for a while in the US the contents will likely eventually be deleted. Many would say good riddance but I would consider this a loss to the historical record. TikTok contains a record of the trends, attitudes aesthetics, and political debates of the time. It also gives a record of how Americans reacted to many historical events like the pandemic, BLM riots, the 2020 and 2024 elections, Jan 6th, withdrawal from Afghanistan, invasion of Ukraine, 10/7, the rise of AI and the Trump assassination attempt.

1/ Thread about Indian people outside of India and the USA. There isn't going to be a thesis or an argument made, just facts about Indians in various countries.
Will discuss:
NZ
Australia
UK
Canada
South Africa
Uganda
Malaysia
Singapore
Fiji
Trinidad and Tobago 2/ New Zealand. Indians make up 5.8% of New Zealand population, they are mostly Hindu.

One of the anti-semitic claims on this list seems literally true lol

Also if this guy is American which would be my guess based on accent, it is funny to complain about claims of duel loyalty with a big Israeli flag in his profile.

This is likely true, but the corollary is that men don't desire the cultural and intellectual outputs of women as women do of men. Some examples: Books: "only 19% of [female authors] readers are men and 81%, women. But for the top 10 bestselling male authors (who include Charles Dickens and JRR Tolkien, as well as Lee Child and Stephen King), the split is much more even: 55% men and 45% women." theguardian.com/books/2021/jul…

Thread about Europooreans, or an attempt to asses the material well being disparity between the US and Europe without any monetary measures. Each one of these measures tells you something, but nothing tells you everything. AC. Are the rumors that Europe lacks AC true? Yes.

Quick thread about the 2000 election. Officially George Bush won Florida by 537 votes which handed him the presidency. It is commonly stated that the supreme court handed the election to Bush. However, newspapers did a recount of the ballots after the fact and found that Bush would have won by most standards requested. cnn.com/2015/10/31/pol…

Men are broadly more supportive of the abundance agenda.

1/ THREAD. Was the 2020 election fair? Will complete this thread in multiple parts over the next couple of weeks.
>General Voter Fraud Claims
>Claims about 2020 election
>Wisconsin
>Pennsylvania
>Arizona
>Georgia
>Nevada
(may not be in that order for states)
I will not be writing about Michigan since the total vote disparity there is relatively large. 2/ Why am I doing this thread? Firstly because most of my followers think that it was rigged.

1/Thread about women in law enforcement. 2/ Women in the US make up about 14% of police officers. This number has grown rapidly since the early 70s though less than people may think since female officers are more common on TV than real life. researchgate.net/publication/27…

Going to do a thread on the 1986 book "Men and Marriage" which is critical of the feminist movement. It is pretty old so I am taking some of the social science cited at the time with a grain of salt, but it is certainly an interesting time capsule. amazon.com/Men-Marriage-G… Why men are less sexually secure than women:
