Thanks for correcting the magnitudes - not 28% or 17% - but the ratios work. Still, there's no citation for your figure for white males in particular. > White

Still, there's no citation for your figure for white males in particular.
> White men have a suicide rate more than FOUR TIMES that of the overall rates for these groups.
Huh? Show the math if you please?
> They live in poor, broken-down places while working low-wage jobs and have nothing to show for it -- just the same as any other group of people.
We are in agreement.. so why is it that the white men are turning extremist and listening to Joe Rogan? It seems like it's not even the same set of white men, the followers of Joe Rogan/other "toxic" male figures probably come from more privileged backgrounds.
- mlrtime 3y agoIronically it is people like you pushing white men further right. Categorizing an entire race/sex as "privileged" when you have no idea about them is not going to win readers to your comments. This isn't my theory, it has been talked about here and on mainstream news channels.
- hajile 3y agoThe figure I cited per-100k for white males (just a subset, not actually all white males) was right there in the article YOU posted.
