Most people in the U.S. are one or more of "white, cis, straight". What often passes for 'diversity' in some places is very much the exception, not the rule.



Probably not true.

Non-hispanic white is only 57% right now and declining. a ton of cities are white minority - kind of to the point about this picture of past american rural ideals are out of date.

Out LGTBQ is somewhere approaching 5% across all generations. Key word out.

Gen Z are ~15% out. I wouldn't be surprised if the true non-cis/non-straight % is closer to 20%.

So that probably puts cis white in the slight minority and shrinking.

And I'm not sure what 'passes' means I will try to use HN rule of benefit of the doubt
