You seem do be under the impression that “facts” are undisputable
No idea how you got it. Facts must be objective and verifiable. They can be proven wrong.
We believe them
You’re confusing facts with justified true belief JTB.
I am not going to teach a lower level stats class in a comment section,
Good, because you don’t seem qualified.

I have found a causal mechanism that causes this phenomena and can replicate the effect while controlling for confounding variables
And the “trained physicist” confuses that with “belief”.
Literally some neurologists say he can be cured of that by eating more fish.
- Comment on Anon ruins christmas 3 days ago:
Atheism does require belief. Even if it’s only in the axioms of physics.
Interestingly, a diet poor in Omega-3 leads to inability to distinguish between belief and fact.
Please go on such a diet.
Now you’re confusing atheism - lack of belief in deities - with general knowledge of science, and then confusing general knowledge of science with belief. You are also confusing empirical evidence with faih.
Go eat fish.
- Comment on Anon ruins christmas 3 days ago:
Atheism is as much a belief as bald is a haircut. Technically slightly different
Only theists try to bring atheism down to a belief system.
By that logic: absence of being on fire is kind of being on fire. Not drowning is a specific type of drowning. Vacuum is a particular form of atmosphere. Being an idiot is just a form of wisdom.
- Comment on Anon ruins christmas 3 days ago:
Atheism, like all belief systems
You really should educate yourself a little bit more to get to the baseline level.
Even if you bet on the right horse, it doesn’t mean everything you do is automatically justified; empathy is a higher order law.
Oh, nevermind, you’re one of those feel-good nonsense wafflers.

It does :) The country of origin is also visible in (some of) the stats, interestingly Ukrainians in Germany crime stats are underrepresented 3 times compared to the baseline, while (IIRC) Somali at 8 times the baseline.

Yes. It’s all your fault and mine. We are both the Epstein class and we are directly responsible for both manufacturing the wars and invasions, the refugee crisis (which definitely did not contribute to worsening the power of working class across Europe with influx of workers who did not join the unions and had to accept to work for less to survive), etc. etc. It’s definitely our fault, and thus EU fault.
I also don’t really remember EU bombing Africa or Middle East, only USA & UK, who are famously not part of the EU, but sure.
Bullshit, then starts the complaining how they speak so badly and don’t understand what you’re saying etc.
I do not presume to know about the shithole you’re living in, but in Poland the moment a foreigner tries to speak Polish (yes, even the hated “brown Muslims”) this doesn’t happen. Heck, there’s even a chain of Vietnamese restaurants that is marketing itself making jokes about expecting racism and not receiving it.
rather than as a compliment that the person has gone through the efforts to learn it
Yeah, no. The effort is expected. You compliment on exceeding expectations, not for meeting the bare minimum.

UK is not in EU, USian.
And of course, one country having X magically makes it true everywhere in the world.
If you - for some fucking reason - want to compare crimes rate (why did you even went there?) - then in Germany almost half of violent crimes and sex crimes are committed by the foreign-born, with, according to the report, Africans and Arabs making most of the offenders.
At least according to their statistics: …polizei.nrw/…/pks-2024_bericht-zur-pk.pdf
France: …gouv.fr/…/insecurite-et-delinquance-en-2024-prem… (~40% thefts are committed by the foreign-born. But hey, at least they are not overrepresented in violent crimes!)
Sweden: Almost 1/3 of violent crimes: bra.se/…/2021_9_Registered_offending_among_person… (but Sweds don’t say so directly, they just give proportion, so then you have to go and multiply it by the amount of foreign-born individuals to get the rate of offenders.

Please keep your USian death culture to yourself. Get help.

Our Epstein class let in a ton of brown Muslims, it didn’t went well for the local population.
To be fair, right now all EU is not high on any kind of immigration, because of above-mentioned + housing crisis + working condition going down.
The second you speak the local language though, that perception changes 180.

A crow dive bombed me twice, hitting me the first time and whooshing by me the second time. It didn’t hurt, but I’m offended that they don’t remember me
Dude, if they have a youngling and they attacked you/divebombed once, they were teaching the youngling to fly and wanted you to go away just in case.
If it continues, you can try to bribe them, if that doesn’t help you will have to chase them away. Preferably after the fledglings can fly.

I don’t know about your country, but here in Europe, most historical statisticians point to two facts, that remained unchanged at least since medieval times and were proven times and times again:
- people in the cities have fewer children that people in the villages
- people in villages have fewer children the less they need hands to do the work
So yeah, everything you wrote is true, up to and including “people can’t afford children because of the new vampires”, but it’s not THE reason why they don’t have children.
(IIRC its best explained here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic_transition)

I believe China tries to somehow argue its not imperialistic, its multipolar, which honestly is just a spit in the face.
(A very good critique of multipolarism from a far, far far left source can be found here: spectrejournal.com/against-multipolar-imperialism…)

Not only I don’t want them, I’m happy to designate Neatherlands (Holland specifically) to be world’s stockpile of the liquorice. Just keep it containted there :)
- Comment on Anon teaches you about their culture 2 months ago:
Yeah, I call bullshit or a case of not appreciating your own culture.
Dutch were the damn spice traders of the world. This can be still seen in many dishes, even damn cookies like hagel.
You have had proper meats, so all meat products were in your cuisine - rook and metworsts. Pancakes with bacon and shit. Tiger bread with spreads.
You eat the damn abomination of a spice liquorice like its good, and you’re per capita biggest liquorice consumers.
Regarding sweet desserts, you have had a shitton of different pies and buttercakes, as well as this weird cake sandwitch called tampons or smthing like that.
Stamppot is food for the poorest workers. Like literally Dutch version of, idk, mcdonalds or smiliar. Of course its going to be filling but not cuisine. If you eat it daily then damn, I’m sorry for you, grab some pears and red wine and make stoofperen.

My dude. At over 4% market share companies are incentivised to buy out competition and become monopolies because it’s more profitable.
No one would be able to scale to serve global demand in any way, shape, or form
Yes. Because any and all global companies so far are evil ant anti-consumer. Disagree? Name 3.
The problem isn’t market share, it’s enforced market share. Anti-competitive practices. Lobbying. Buying out competition
So yeah, I’m glad we agree, that any company at 4% market share must be stopped from growing, because otherwise all of that happens.
- Comment on 3 months ago:
Any business that has over 4% market rate should be forcibly split.
Steam is not FORCED to compete and innovate or go under, they do that at the whim of the owner. Who can change his mind. Or die, and the company will be inherited by whomever and sloppify.
Heck, anyone shilling that Steam is a good guy - ffs, you do not own the games you bought.
(Why 4%? There are some old studies that at 5% it brings more profit to get rid of the competition, below innovations are the way to get the money).

male victims were provoking, i.e. asking for it.
What the heck is wrong with you?
- Comment on women 4 months ago:
But they do commit ~50% of spouse murders, so at least thet have that for them?
Oh, and the women are vastly underrepresented in the victim statistics.
Interestingly, some researchers when they control for provocation, do find that the difference is because of gender norms, and without them the violence rates equalize
psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2F0033-290…
Another fun fact, when it comes to incarceration rates women do tend to get more lenient sentences because they are women (and act pitiful on the trail) - however it is slowly changing as more and more judges slowly learn to ignore that bullcrap.
Sources and initial readings can be found in this wikipedia article: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_differences_in_crime
It is fun :)
- Comment on We're just scanning for the bear... 4 months ago:
is this happening just because women are more worried about getting attacked.
Uh… It’s complicated, but
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women's_fear_of_crime
Long story short, the less likely the crime, the more women are afraid of it happening to them.
(And yes, this sentence is very slightly cherry picking data to provoke people to read the wikipedia page).
