In a series of tweets, Zack Goldberg with Information Liberation reported on Pew Research that shows white people who categorize themselves as “very liberal” have been diagnosed with the highest numbers of mental health conditions.
Since the polls was conducted back in March, these numbers could have easily increased.
One look at an antifa protest could tell you this but it’s nice to have some data.
1/n Two interesting findings thus far from my analysis of Pew’s March 2020 COVID-19 survey. First, white (and especially ‘very’) liberals are far more likely than all other ideological-racial subgroups to report being diagnosed with a mental health condition. pic.twitter.com/RynS9lk0jR

2/n Somewhat surprisingly, this difference further grows when we add standard controls pic.twitter.com/2VM3DD2HJI

3/n We next turn to mean responses to this battery, which asks about the frequency at which respondents experienced specific mental health issues over the previous 7 days pic.twitter.com/2zisVK5ItD

4/n The differences are more modest here, but still significant pic.twitter.com/eGeyPEpONU

5/n They are also robust to several potential confounds (e.g. job loss, pay-cuts, marital status) pic.twitter.com/1YE76bEbKc

6/n However, entering the ‘mental health diagnosis’ variable into the model does (perhaps naturally) narrow the difference. pic.twitter.com/E22JIYwgRi

7/n In other words, at least some of the differences in the covid-mental health battery between white liberals and others are accounted for by the former’s higher likelihood of being diagnosed with a mental health condition.

8/n It’s possible that the disparities in self-reported diagnosis are simply or partly a function of white liberals being more likely to seek mental health evaluations. I don’t have the data to answer this question. But given that they also tend to score higher on neuroticism..

There’s a lot of social pressure on white liberals to identify as mentally ill to boost their social status in the oppression olympics.
Just being a straight white male is considered downright detestable.
