In reply to the discussion: How the 'Karen Meme' Confronts the Violent History of White Womanhood [View all]58Sunliner
(6,273 posts)26. I don't use exit polling data as it is not reliable.
I use statistics. Exit polling data will vary. Total percent of men who voted for DT-@15.9% white men, 1.71% Latino men, .05% Asian men, .036% AA men. Which adds up to 17.69%. 26.5% minus 17.69 equals 8.8% of which are women. 1% Latino, .04% Asian. 7.7% white women. Less than half of all white women who voted. Exit polling has many flaws.

an argument's premises assume the truth of the conclusion-52% of white women did not vote for DT.

You can not use false stats to support a bias. I won't address your straw men.

Proof by Assertion is an informal fallacy. Please do, take your assertion up with the author or mag
