Georgia's racial gubernatorial race

A SurveyUSA poll on the upcoming gubernatorial election in Georgia asked respondents about who they planned on voting for and also about their opinions on eight policy questions.

What jumps out immediately from the results is how much wider the racial disparity is on the question of who to vote for than it is on any of the specific policy questions, even the one on guns--one of the most racially polarizing 'hot button' issues in the country.

While Georgia is a state in which non-Hispanic whites will be a minority by the 2020 presidential election and is currently 15% Hispanic and Asian, the survey only broke respondents down into two racial categories, non-Hispanic white and black. The 9% of registered respondents who are other than white or black are excluded here.

The following graph shows the net absolute differences between whites and blacks on the candidate they intend to vote for and on each of the eight policy questions. That is, the higher the value, the greater the racial disparity (N = 971):

Ben Shapiro wept, Lee Kuan Yew's ghost laughed. Ideology doesn't really seem to matter all that much. When it comes to actually determining who gets power, identity matters more than ideology does.

We see the same thing when we look at how non-white "conservatives"--who opposed abortion, opposed welfare, supported gun rights, etc--voted in the 2012 presidential election. While they described themselves as politically more closely aligned with Romney, they voted overwhelmingly for Obama anyway.

The merciless savagette

American Indian? Big deal. I'm an M-effing knuckle-dragging Neanderthal, bitches:

Where's my POC zombie ascendancy status? And I'm an Injun, too, just like Vox Day:

Black Americans are on average far more white than Elizabeth Warren is American Indian:

Demographic compositions of Clinton and Trump voters in 2016

If the Republican party is to remain politically viable at the national level, the country must remain majority-white.

At what point will a Republican in an official capacity at the national level admit the obvious? What's the over-under on it happening before the country becomes majority-minority? Sure, it'll happen at sometime after the demographic flip, when acknowledging it no longer matters, but that's unremarkable.

Paralleling the fundamental question of our time, the fundamental political question of America in the next several Current Years is whether or not the Republican party has the will to survive.

Is Twatter bad for your mental health?

The following graph shows the percentages of GSS respondents who have experienced poor mental health ("stress, depression, and problems with emotions") in the last thirty days by sex and by whether or not they use Twitter (N = 800):

Steve Sailer, we have your answer if you'll allow us to modify your question a bit.

Women are not psychologically equipped to handle social media. It amplifies and perpetuates their neuroses. Not good.

Judaism is the whitest religion in America

From the GSS, the percentages of adherents by religious identification who are non-Hispanic white (N = 21,581):

Using Reuters-Ipsos, a previous post looked at the same, albeit further broken down by Christian denomination. It was subsequently noted there that the Jewish n-H white figure (87.4%) seemed too low and the Hindu figure too high (7.1%). These GSS figures come from the period 2000-2016, while the R-I numbers are exclusively from 2018.

Both sources broadly agree on the figures for the Hindus, Muslims, Protestants, and the irreligious but not for Catholics or Jews. Are Jews beginning to racially identify as "other" in anticipation of the scotched MENA category becoming available, or as a consequence of the flight from white more generally?

I've been saying that whatever white privilege is, Jewish privilege is it on steroids. Well, American Judaism has a diversity problem. Or maybe it has so much privilege because it doesn't have any internal diversity problems to deal with!

Whatever. Let's emulate Israel on walls and illegal infiltrators and emulate the North American diaspora on race.

We don't hate you. We want to be like you. But if you do everything you can to keep us from becoming like you, then you will leave us with no other choice but to hate you. And as you know, it's better that the Saxon not be made to hate.
