The biggest question is do the Chargers have 11.1 fans?

where'd they find enough Chargers fans to be able to include them in a statistically significant sample?

For other people. Nearly everyone here could sit down and name 250 influential leftists who choose the lilliest of white neighborhoods for themselves.

Bigotry? No. Hypocrisy? Yes.

I was just messing. Congrats on the education. Once you get an advanced degree you are going to start leaning left on a bunch of issues overnight. The paper the diplomas are printed on have a mind-altering poison.

Trust me, my B.S. was from a university so liberal that Rawls himself would have puked. I am immune.

I probably interact with more black and mexican people in a day in my little southern town than the avg ultra lib educated New Yorker or person from San Fran does in a week.

I am just talking generally. Not saying that there are no diverse communities outside of cities. I would say that diverse precincts in rural areas probably are more balanced party wise than less diverse areas.

Hmm, not sure how I pretended to believe that. I'm critiquing your particular post and it's logical validity. You know, the basis for any argumentation.

And that's your explanation for making shitty arguments? Pretty much says it all.

I don't fricking believe this bullshite. I wonder where the people were polled, at a game for attendance, or just downtown in the city etc.

You can't tell me NFL fans are skewed that far left though, common sense says that's odd

The country has more democratics than republicans. However, two things: independents tend to vote republican and there are more self-identifying conservatives than liberals.

Republicans are more likely to have a college degree.

The paying Saints fan base is not accurately represented in the graph.

Everyone of those cities has huge conservative suburbs around it and large conservative leanings outlets that carry those teams.

The chart is very misleading.

This is ridiculous and shows you are sucked into the false narrative as well. Being republican does not mean you hate anyone or are any less exposed to anyone.



SF = 6% AA___Liberal
GB = 3% AA___Liberal

Houston = 25% AA__Conservative

Some of these liberal bubbles you speak of actually think less of AAs because they are not exposed to them, look at their logic behind voter ID issues. LINK.
And some of these conservative areas have much higher rates of interracial interactions between white/AAs without any incident whatsoever

Republican vs Democrat is fiscal in the vast majority of cases, trying to connect it to race is a strategy of the left to secure the minority vote. Nothing more nothing less.

There are racists in both parties, the majority of both parties are not racist


And also this study only interviewed like 2200 people, so they asked like 70 fans per franchise? Lol.
Not to mention the vast majority of NFL fans, left and right, are against disrespecting the flag and anthem as a way to protest.
