Surveys. | |||
A poll from braincels shows that whites constitute only 28% of that forums population, with the largest racial demographic being South Asian (eg. Indian). The largest poll by incels.co showed that only 50% of its members were white, which is quite small for a Western web forum. | |||
Surveys on Reddit of the general userbase tend to show ~80% white users overall. Thus we can approximate that the typical Reddit population is 1.6-3.6 times more white than incel groups. Given the sections on race above, this should not be surprising. However, the media has commonly spread the false notion without any data that "incels tend to be white men". | |||
