Opinion VS Reality
We are all sick and tired of our liberal friends and the totally corrupt liberal media outlets lying to us about very basic facts. They have succeeded to the extent that many Americans are clueless about many demographic facts about our great country. Well, leave it to Carol Carlson to get the latest facts on how opinions of brain-washed Americans differs greatly from the actual facts. So let’s read this great article provided by Carol, and let’s all pledge to ignore the lies and dis-information from the Dems and Fake News, and spread the truth about our great country to our less well informed Americans!
The Opinion Versus Reality information is below. It will bring a smile to your face!
Subject: Opinion V Reality
Here is a Fun & Interesting Eight Question Survey with interesting National Results. Before you see the Survey Results, answer the questions, and see how you score against the Nation & against the Facts:
* What percentage of the country is black?
· What percentage of marriages are mixed race?
· What percentage is "Latino"?
· How many families make over $500,000 a year?
· What percent of Americans are vegetarians?
· What percent of Americans live in NY city?
· What percentage of Americans are 'transgender?
· What percentage of your fellow citizens are Gay?
The Poll Results
This should be a wake-up call if you don’t already know this… A recent poll was conducted by a national polling outfit. Names don't matter. They are all the same. This one was "YouGov”. Results to these questions asked of average people on the street:
· What percentage of the country is black? Answers 41%.. Actual 12%. If you watch commercials, you will think it is 90%.
· What percentage of marriages are mixed race? Answer 50%... Actual 1%. If you watch commercials, you will think it is 90%.
· What percentage is "Latino"? Answers 39%... Actual numbers 17%.
· How many families make over $500,000 a year? Answers 26%... Actual figure 1%. We think a quarter of the country is rich.
· What percent of Americans are vegetarians? Response? 30%… Actual 5%.
· What percent of Americans live in NY city? Answers? 30%... Actual 3%.
· What percentage of Americans are 'transgender? 22%... Actual number 1%
· What percentage of your fellow citizens are Gay? Result? 30%... Actual 3%
So why do people have such inaccurate thoughts on these counts? THE MEDIA! The media run race, gender, and wealth stories constantly. Result? You are being brainwashed by the national left with the media. Hitler’s propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels would be proud if he had half the success.
Disney just went full-on "gender" They will no longer welcome guests with the traditional "Welcome ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls" Why? Because 1% of the population dictates to the other 99% (that would be the vast majority) and corporate America falls for it.
Regardless of what you think. Less than 20% of Americans use "Twitter" yet Twitter controls 80% of public opinion, why? The Media..
Next time you are thinking Americans have changed and not in a good way, remember, it's fake. It's all a lie. Most people think just like you do but the media has brainwashed Americans with constant broadcasting of “LIES"
This is excellent! I have been saying something was wrong. We all know how skewed the TV demographics are, but seeing the actual numbers in print brings it home. How does the pervert 1% get to dictate public opinion? More so, why would we let it?
My “beef” is with the mostly black and mixed commercials. The worst is the one I encounter on Freebie which is for AID drugs, and gay people romancing. Sickening.
One percent trans seems high. Maybe very high. They probably rounded up.
But the real value, regardless of how you compute it, is nowhere near 30%. Except on TV and Hollywood, of course.
You either do, or you do not.
We don’t have TV in our house, so the only time I see TV is when I’m at the gym. When I’m on the treadmill and gazing at the 5 TVs in front of me, it’s not unusual to see all 5 screens in commercial breaks at the same time and to see only black faces on all 5 screens. Of course, gay couples are thrown in frequently as well. It’s no wonder people have a distorted view of demographics in this country.

My “beef” is with the mostly black and mixed commercials.
Why? What harm are my Asian husband and I doing to anyone else? Who even watches commercials any more? If you can't skip them, I generally just open a new tab and do something else for a few minutes.
Well who watches commercial TV anymore? You advertise to people who are the most gullible. So in a way using black people in commercials is “racist” to black people, because it assumes they will buy a product just because they see black people in a commercial.
“How does the pervert 1% get to dictate public opinion?”
Because 50% of the country knows that it will tick off the other 50%.
Sadly, Not the least bit humorous. And may yet be the most important post of information that i read this week. Thank you for again posting a worthy read.
Friends of ours commented that their kids didn’t understand why people accused the Founding Fathers of racism since according to “Hamilton” they were all brown people.
Way too funny!
“ Because 50% of the country knows that it will tick off the other 50%.”
Sadly true. My mom used to call this cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face.
Wow, i did even better than I figured! Only the Latinos I big underestimated @ 8%! Everything else really accurate!
I am positive they rounded up. Displaying less than 1% and people comprehending it is not easy.
