A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Take a stroll through the posts on this community and tell how many of the "World News" are actually White News. Keep in mind white people make less than 10% of the population.

World News is not Lemmy, and looking at posts doesn't determine the population make-up of Lemmy users. Neither does posts about White News, whatever that means, determine the race of then poster.

Lemme just ignore every piece of evidence against me

[–] stephen01king@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, you're just selectively looking at evidence without nuance or understanding of what they actually show, just like people who spout statistics to call black people violent. There's a reason analysis is required to turn data into accurate conclusions, not just looking at it at face value like you are doing. What's funny is you're even using the exact same argument as them when called out.

If you actually understood your own conclusion, you would actually debunk every argument I made for why I don't think your evidence supports your conclusion. Instead, you did this and proven to me the opposite.

That's a lot of words to say "lalala I can't hear you"

The projection is real.
