2016 LessWrong Diaspora Survey Results - Less Wrong Discussion
(lesswrong.com)
Long-term basilisk anxiety doesn’t exist.
There are some other results too.
A lot fewer trans women than recent memes suggest. Also half of us are depressed.
Big parts of the pdf don’t have any data at all, and seem to have something to do with write-ins.
Also support for HBD is significantly higher than I would have predicted. Wow.
3.5% of AMABs are trans women, and an unspecified amount are enbie trans women (this is why our gender categorization system sucks); I think the statistics are compatible with 5-10% of AMABs being “basically women” and even the 20% is not outlandish if cis by default is as big as it seems to be (roughly doubling those numbers, so the 5-10% turns to 10-20%) and some people are still closeted to surveys.
Other observations:
- wow I was way up there in basilisk anxiety percentile back when it was fresh
- I knew black people were less likely but I didn’t expect that my throwaway joke would be almost literally correct
- our ASAB issues seem to be getting better over time?
- apart from libertarians-without-prefixes, the right is basically a rounding error/lizardman effect
- in fact if I have to live in a democracy, I want it to be populated entirely by diaspora members
- but I’d still prefer diaspora+tumblr members, probably; will need the data on that
