That’s also not true considering, again, he barely won the primary.

>group of young white online men
Only a group of young white online men would think that reddit is only populated by other young white online men – assumptions cut both ways homie

I don’t say “only.”
Reddit’s biggest group of users are young white men.

Lol so what? I read and understood all of your words.
Is this sub's biggest group of user young white men? Are you and I both young white men? Does numerical majority equal distribution of impact?
Neither of us know any of this – Reddit is a dark forest and that is the logical assumption for all interactions.

I don’t think you did understand my words if you think that pointing out that it’s not true that “Reddit is only populated by young white online men” is refuting anything I wrote.
Yes, it’s very likely that this sub’s biggest user group is young white men. That would be consistent with the survey data about Reddit’s overall demographics.

Younger male and liberal is the majority on Reddit. That alone would already skew the sub towards a population that feels less vulnerable or do not worry as much about public safety.
The fact that so many lack the empathy to understand the reality of others is probably related to something else, though. Because I know many young liberal men who have a lot of empathy.
>About seven-in-ten (71%) of Reddit news users are men, 59% are between the ages of 18 and 29, and 47% identify as liberal, while only 13% are conservative (39% say they are moderate).

He “Barely won the primary”. Yet low income PoC overwhelmingly voted for him and pushed him over the edge. The same communities that people on here pretend to champion for and claim “aren’t concerned about crime” and vehemently hate the police.

75%. 75% of city residents were polled and said crime is a major issue. You are so delusional.
MillennialNightmare t1_iy96bi3 wrote
75% of city residents were not polled on that, what are you even talking about?
drpvn t1_iy97j1y wrote
Presumably he’s talking about a poll of a random sample of city residents, 75% of whom said crime was a major issue for them.

Was that one of the same polls that showed Zeldin winning?

This one right here chief, which I've posted liberally before and I'm pretty positive you've seen. But sure, try to downplay it: https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/new-york-elections-government/ny-nyc-crime-poll-ny1-siena-college-20220607-7f3g7yxtqnawhflxuuapf5s4ue-story.html

His response will be “but Adams barely won the primary.”
