What's the source? I wanna learn about the weird unexpected drops in some countries.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

For anyone else also interested, I went and had a look at the links Dessalines kindly provided.

The source on the graphs says "Sources: Daniel Cox, Survey Center on American Life; Gallup Poll Social Series; FT analysis of General Social Surveys of Korea, Germany & US and the British Election Study. US data is respondent’s stated ideology. Other countries show support for liberal and conservative parties All figures are adjusted for time trend in the overall population." Where FT is financial times.

It's not clear how the words "liberal" and "conservative" were chosen, whether they're intended to mean "socially progressive" and "socially traditional" or have other connotations bound with the political parties too, and whether the original data chose those descriptions or if they're FT's inference as being "close enough" for an American audience.

Unfortunately the FT data site is refusing to let me look at them without "legitimate interest" advertising cookies so I can't tell you much more or if there's any detail on methodology.

Huh, that explains the 4B movement in S. Korea.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 6 months ago

In my city, there's a Korean community and from my friend who is a teacher, those girls who left Korea hate Korean dudes and want to hook up with Americans.

I don't understand anything about Korean culture or k-pop.

But after reading about 4B, this is starting to make sense.

Why does everything appear to appear at +15 across the board just before 1990?

Rise of Streamers. Uneducated man childs giving advice to teenage boys, while "living the life"...

Imagine an angsty teen with blue balls hearing the opinion on women from his idolized, expensive car driving, pumped up tattooed narcissist how to pick up girls every evening.

That shit is toxic populism in times with lots of uncertainty about the future.

Interestingly it looks like in 3 of 4 charts men have, at worst, returned to mean. It's the women getting more leftist. And I don't blame them.

Sauce, for those interested - https://www.ft.com/content/29fd9b5c-2f35-41bf-9d4c-994db4e12998

In the US, Gallup data shows that after decades where the sexes were each spread roughly equally across liberal and conservative world views, women aged 18 to 30 are now 30 percentage points more liberal than their male contemporaries. That gap took just six years to open up.

So it might be worth taking it with a pinch of salt because I'm betting it's using the very dumbed down "liberal vs conservative" 'murican political view. Maybe skew all results down 3-6 points.

I’d be curious to see data outside of the “International Community”

That's why there are so many incels conservatives and more lesbians, the numbers talks from themselves.

Sounds like the women did better advance planning if they're still getting laid.

Here, have some unsourced data on subjective tendencies.

Nah, that doesn't count as data just yet then.

Especially not at a point in time where someone like Trump is said to represent "Conservatism".

Hey look if you start taking away white male privilege they freak out when they find out people of other races, genders and creeds are better than them, who knew?
