researchers from the dept of stating the fucking obvious state their fucking obvious conclusion that the social media platform for children (and paedos) attracts children (and paedos) to the surprise of nobody except children and paedos

The chart in the image was reproduced by the Washington Post from a 2009 study by I C McManus
The Post article makes a similar claim to the one in the screenshot
McManus theorizes that the late-Victorian dive in left-handedness reflects stigma against southpaws
But he actually said this is unlikely
One possibility, extensively discussed in the handedness literature, is that left-handers die earlier [...] An alternative explanation of the lower rate of left-handedness suggests that the elderly are more likely, because of social pressure, either to have been forced to shift from writing with the left hand to writing with the right hand, or they prefer to call themselves right-handed, because of a taboo against left-handedness. Both this and the differential mortality explanation become unlikely when one looks at the entire Gilbert and Wysocki database [...] The best account of the Gilbert and Wysocki data is that it directly reflects the actual rate of left-handedness in the population

I know nationalising water right now would cost hundreds of billions
a hundred billion or so is the government's own line. other more believable opinions suggest this is bollocks

it's a tangent i don't fancy going on but this everything-is-content must-consume-content view of things is not very healthy imo
Might not be too unusual if it included replies/comments but this is just top level posts
YDI. avg 25 posts a day just on this account is spambot behaviour. how are you called sunshine when you never see any

no man. there's videos of isreali kids burning their draft papers, their prisons are filling up with conscientious objectors. nuke-the-fuckin-lot-of-em is not the way to go, even if they're a tiny minority they do not deserve to be collateral damage in another nuclear dick waving event
