My post was too long so I had to post here: https://pastes.io/07p5nd9dxc
Edit: first correction to the paste, our trans community is represented far above the general population. Around 11% of our community is trans, while in the world only 1% of people are. I also only gave absolute numbers for some reason in the paste so here’s the percentage points: 10% trans women, 1% trans men, 7.7% nonbinary.
Finished reading through it, the results make sense, considering this is an english speaking community on a platform that still appeals to tech people mostly
most of us are white (and live in Anglo America and West Europe)
This is disappointing comrades.
Do better.
(I didn’t take your comment personally, I just felt like responding, no hostility or antagonism meant nor recieved) The only way I could “do better” on that front is by moving out of here, and as tempting as that is, I have work to do to help those most in need here because our wealthy state refuses to.
Wait, there’s another old person here???
64 or above
Actually that’s wrong too, the question is specifically above 64, so at least 65.
I completely missed this, would’ve bumped up the LGBTQ categories a bit more
On the class question (Which class are you a part of currently?), most of us predictably answered proletariat: a whopping 61%. The second most represented class is the labour aristocracy, again predictable considering most of us live in the imperial core (22.84%).
Interestingly enough, I am from Latin America, but from a labor aristocratic background. When I visted a friend in Europe, I noticed I had far better living standards than them
You are not labor aristocratic and I wouldn’t trust the “living standards” too much; people have a weird conception of poverty and “middle strata” and how they actually live.
Yes, comrade, I am. I am the son of two doctors, a profession which is highly valued here in Brazil. My family earns enough not to go through economic grievances, so much so my mother is able to sustain a company just through her salary alone (which is a major drain in the family’s finances btw). So you could consider myself from a petty-bourgeois/labor aristocratic background, but more precisely labor aristocratic, since the family’s income does not come from the company, but from the wages they receive as doctors.
I… doubt that that comes as labor aristocrats.
Labor aristocrats are people that relish and are fine with the way things are and balk at revolution and fight for the bourgeoisie at every opportunity.
It doesn’t mean petit-bourgeois, for example. And you aren’t a labor aristocrat, I can tell.
