How is that relevant when GP was saying that it's wealth that makes the difference, but the stats show equivalent wealth between the two groups we were talking about: Oranians and black South Africans.
The point is that by the data, these two groups aren't wealthy, there's nothing to suggest that Oranians have "a lot of money", and thus GP's assertion is incorrect and was just a random claim not backed by the data.
- 93po 3y agoI'm not sure I follow. Oranians are 98% white. Black South Africans I assume are 100% black. Oranians are therefore part of the white group that make 4 times as much. And while not backed by data, there are assumptions that can be made (that i laid out) to suggest that Oranians do have a lot more wealth than SA on average
