      That's because they're constantly being misled. As trust in major media platforms declines, we'll see people's perspectives come closer to reality, but generally it's always going to be skewed because our personal perceptions are skewed by our personal reality. You can know there are roughly 330 million people in the US, and then look at 1.5 million trans people and do quick and dirty division in your head and know that's about .5%, and you can guess that 'trans' is probably pretty inclusive of things like people who just use 'xe/xhe' or identify as dragonkin or something, but not really understand that when your interactions online are filled with people with pronouns in their bio screaming about the trans genocide because you won't let them groom your children. It gives everyone a distorted perspective on reality, because most people are not terminally online.

      The actual issue here is that they complain about over-representation, while at the same time completely ignoring that this over-representation is the result of discrimination, hate and oppression. They demand a representaion which is equal to % numbers, but when "the left" asks for factual equality they dont wanna hear about it.

      as soon as you want more (the best of the best, prestigae car, a boat, holidays with all inclusive each year for the entire family, a pool, etc. you better be upper class xd. or happy with ONE of those, neglecting the others completely. or risking to get fucked over in high age or on an accident etc. with no reserves.

      *Except in children, teens, and young adults under the age of 21.* As the other pointed out the biggest predictor of whether someone will come out as trans is whether or not a peer does so. However, this is only really applicable to those specific age groups.
      Who ever would have though that the age groups that are the most impressionable, and value peer and social affirmation the most... Would start skyrocketing in identification rates when schools are not just shoving it onto kids, but also pairing it ever so conveniently with an abundance of (often forced in the sense that if you don't support it you will get punished) peer and authority affirmation and support?

    Another example is religion. They estimated that 27% are Muslim, 30% are Jewish, 33% are atheists and 58% are Christians, making a total of 148%. It's not even close to 100%. I bet if they were asked how many people were Hindus, Buddhists or Shintoists, they would have added another 30 - 40%.

      Reality = factual knowledge. And you can't possibly get to this point, ever. Why? Because you perceive reality through subjective perceptions and it is heavily influenced by objective opinions.
      Subjective opinion is when a person's perception deviates from the collective opinion. Let's say 10 claim there's a table in the center of the room, the eleventh doesn't see it. His perception is subjective in this case, despite the probability he's the only sane (which is quite large when you take only 10 people as an example).
      Objective opinion is something people express. Not feel, or see and describe. Express. Back to the example, 11th person might say that there is a table in the center. They all might be lying, but the objective opinion won't change. The last one is US in a nutshell btw. People tell people some information and artificially increase the number of people believing it. A lot of people in the line know it's bs, yet they decided to do it anyway.
      There is no factual evidence that the Earth has a round shape. There is however, an objective opinion that the Earth is ellipsoidal which is based on objective evidence, - mainly photographs. There are also people that ignore the evidence, filling so called "insane/irrational" category. Neither are wrong nor correct, because we cannot prove or refute one or the other, the same way christians cannot claim that buddhists are mentally insane. The only real difference between flat/rounded Earth is the number of things we claim support the theory.

      Yes. Time series of polls about the share of transsexuals among the population show that the current 1% share is 10 fold of what it had been over many decades. This 10 fold increase over last couple of years is a "social contagion" phenomenon where people claim to be transsexual to make themselves appear important. Additionally, many people in that demographic claim transsexuality to avoid living the truth of being homosexual.

    @Coppergears1974 5 месяцев назад +84

    I have not seen anybody do this in these comments, so for those who are interested, here it is:
    Assuming the 7% LGBT statistic is accurate, the probability of getting a 32-pupil classroom with 20 LGBTs is 0.000000000000075%. That's the binomial of n=32, p=0.07, P(X=20) (given that your calculator can calculate numbers that small). If you understand probability, these kinds of claims immediately become suspicious without having to calculate things. I thought it interesting to give it a number though, just so people can appreciate HOW audacious the claim actually was.
    In general, people underestimate the power of large numbers. Here are a bunch of interesting cases:
    Say the probability of a person to be racist be 0.1% (for argument's sake). What is the probability to have no racists in a random group of 10 people and what for 10000 people?
    For 10 people: 99%
    For 10000 people: 0.0045%
    This is why large groups have extreme people in them all the time, even though extremists are, by definition, rare. Anecdotal evidence of extremism in large groups is therefore pointless (e.g. "I found this one racist post on Twitter from a guy who is [insert large group here], so therefore they must be racists").
    Assuming the probability for a man to be hired over a woman of equal qualification is exactly 50% (i.e. equality hiring). What is the probability for the employees to be on parity (i.e. for the employees to be half/half) when a million people are hired from a (significantly larger sized) pool of 50/50 male/female candidates of equal qualification?
    The answer is 0.08%.
    That is why on a societal level one has to choose what to champion for a case: equality or parity. Both cannot be done at once. Parity requires some corrective interference in the process depending on previous outcomes which shifts the probability and thus can never be equal. If this seems counter-intuitive, look at it this way: Imagine you want to walk to a point in the distance with your eyes closed. You look at your target, close your eyes, and start walking. Let's say every step you are off by up to an inch to the left or right. If the target is 10 steps away, you will be off by 10 inches. If the target is 1000 steps away, you will be off by about 28 yards. If the target is a million steps away, you will be off by about 16 miles and the likelihood that you actually arrive at your target is practically 0. Do not believe in the gambler's fallacy, that "Lady Luck" is counterbalancing when the numbers start getting off. That's not how probability works, unless there is something influencing the process.
    People should learn some mathematics. Whenever you start punching the numbers, results can be enlightening for people.

      especially when requesting to use different pronouns etc, since it's so fashionable, that he probably heard the request with 20 different "genders and pronouns" from his 20 students.
      And while I do agree teachers are not supposed to be dealing with it in any way... not pushing people towards this mindset, nor the other way around,
      we should also remember that those students are watching DEI forces sh*te for a few years now and they are the ones who bring the privileged views to the lessons in many of the cases.

      The actual figure is about 38% of men in the US are bald. The numbers for women are a little more ambiguous, as they mostly count women with any sort of hair thinning. 70% of men and 40% of women experience hair loss at some point. A smaller percentage of women who experience hair loss get to the point where we consider them bald like men do, so it's probably a negligible number. So taken together, there's probably no more than 20% of all Americans that are bald.
