Comment on The one drawback to walking at night
houstoneulers@lemmy.world 17 hours agoYea, but the stat doesn’t support your argument lol
Also, your assumption of my misogyny is completely unfounded. However, your misandry/bigotry is an full display. It’s all good though. Your bigotry will hold you back for as long as you hold onto it. I, on the other hand, will continue to work with my colleagues, men and women. We work well together b/c we actually understand how to dissect an argument and how racists/misandrists/misogynists/bigots lie with stats…like you’re doing now.

it literally does. you don’t even understand my argument.
good luck having women work with you though, i’m sure they’ll love how you downplay their experiences with sexual violence because “not all men are bad”

No, I get your argument. It doesn’t prove what you think. Plain and simple.
You cant make a comparative argument and claim it’s a population inference b/c the comparison could either be devoid of any scale/sampling consideration and/or the comparative bar could be set so low that it’s misleading. Both are well known issues in statistical analysis as well as human biases that are well documented.
But sure, go ahead and keep believing what you will. It’ll only negatively affect you. Why? B/c most ppl don’t like being hypocrites, and to behave like you is super hypocritical as well as pretty blind.

the FBI crime statistics were good enough for you a couple replies ago, but now you’re considered about biases? why does this only now fail to meet your criteria? why should the burden now be on me to prove the authenticity of the source you told me to find? i have more sources that all suggest the same disparity of violent crime between women and men if you have good reason to believe these particular statistics are misleading, but do you?

Yes, b/c the stats I’m talking about (the percentage of men that are actual criminals) actually prove my point.
You used a comparison between two groups as supporting argumentation for a population inference. It’s a nonsequitur fallacy. I believe you that men are more often the perp, but that doesn’t mean all men are murderers or violent in any other way. That’s what someone is implying when they say things like “too bad men are murderers tho”. There’s literally no qualifier to that…it specifically aims at men.
Enjoy your night.
