Andrew Yang clearly didn't agree, in fact, he believed the precise opposite: he thought that he could only attract White voters in areas with little 'diversity', whereas he thought that Whites in 'diverse' areas are more likely to be 'racist' and thus that it was a waste of time trying to compel them to vote for his explicitly anti-White politics and the other stupidity that he supported (e.g. 'reparations').

I'm pretty sure he's right. In France, Le Pen gets more support from the southern areas (which are more 'diverse' to the point of having numerous majority MENA/groid cities) and Macron gets more support from the northern areas (which are less 'diverse').

Likewise, notice that everyone says that the 'deep south' of the United States is the most 'racist' part of it. Notice also that the 'deep south' is where a very large proportion of the 13% are. I don't think that's a coincidence.

I'm sure that other people who are interested in the intersection between demographics and politics will find examples of this same phenomenon other than in America and France. In heavily 'diverse' countries, the majority (or former majority) tends to map onto 'Right-wing' and the 'minorities' (even if they've become a majority) tend to map onto 'Left-wing'.

The same phenomenon can be found in non-white countries. Take Sudan, for instance. The dominant semi-Islamist ideology is supported by more Arabic/mixed Sudanese, whereas more Left-wing rebel groups like the JEM tend to be composed of less mixed Sudanese. And there is plenty of 'racism' between the brown and black Sudanese, such as in the clearly racial conflict in the Darfur, where the brown Sudanese are blamed for 'genocide', i.e. of black Sudanese. Notice also that many Sudanese can be deeply offended by being called 'abeed', 'black', &c. and that they prefer to identify with Arabs than Africans.
