  • I like to do a fun exercise every time I read something like this.

    Swap the word for who you are accusing with some other group. If this make the statement distasteful then the statement is distasteful in it’s orginal form.

    The Left like to blame men, the right like to blame immigrants so for example: “it’s a shame immigrants love to commit murder”.

    Why is it okay to say men love to murder but not immigrants?

    If you pick one you’re 5% likely to pick the right one and be 100% correct.

    You’re 95% likely to pick the wrong one. Then you miss the conspiracy that is true and you believe in one that is not true so 18/20 = 90% correct.

    Average out the probabilities and it should turn out to be something like 90.5%.

    Edit:I may be off on the maths now that I think about it.
