New woke study: Low cognitive ability intensifies the link between social media use and anti-immigrant attitudes. Individuals with higher cognitive abilities were less prone to these negative attitudes, suggesting that cognitive ability may offer protection against emotionally charged narratives on social media.

I love these "people who disagree with establishment opinion #831 are dumb" articles written by pseudoscientists misrepresenting a flawed study.

here's another good one: https://rdrama.net/h/pol/post/301168/soyjakhipstercovid19-vaccinemarseymaid4-refusal-is-driven-by

lol /r/science is such a dump now.

It's objective to say that the "migrant crisis" is an artificial construct. Statistically, migrants (documented or undocumented) are less likely to commit crimes than American citizens. Yet there has been a concerted effort to create the opposite belief in the American public.

It takes a pretty high level of cognitive function to recognize the efforts to deceive.

So, the results of this study make perfect sense.

Here is a good study about the migrant crime rates

https://siepr.stanford.edu/news/mythical-tie-between-immigration-and-crime

Time to play the "does the link actually say what the person says?" game.

The exception is Mexican and Central American immigrants, but the higher incarceration rates for this group since 2005 is largely attributed to the fact that the Census data combines incarceration for criminal acts with detentions for immigration-related offenses, the researchers say in the paper. Incarceration rates among Mexican and Central American immigrants were similar to those of U.S.-born individuals between 1980 and 2005.

So if you don't pull off a bunch of mental gymnastics, 50% of immigrants at best commit as many crimes as citizens.

This is doubly funny because whenever there is a study by N=30 that says "people with liberal views are dumb and like to have their wives railed by Chudolf Nazitler " this website parades it around like gospel and suddenly starts trusting the science too

!grillers win yet again

Liberals don't like exaggerated, emotionally charged narratives. That's why sarcastic counterexample Project 2025 blah blah Handmaid's Tale ha ha liberals suck and I'm smarter than them

Even the counterjerking isn't fun anymore

My favourite is that they'll tell you IQ is useless and unimportant but when we rename it COGNITIVE ABILITY suddenly it's legit and yes republicans are soooo much dumber

@AverageBen10Enjoyer it's that guy you mentioned yesterday doing that thing you said he does. Neat.

!r-slurs they're coming for us

It's a classic application of the finding that political extremism correlates with all sorts of bad traits. But journos/scientists are only interested in highlighting stories about how this means that extreme rightoids are stupid rather than extreme leftoids.

There should be a trope name for this, it's extremely common. Like I'm confident that the study's findings would replicate for "anti-white attitudes" but no one would run that study.

Clever people > more money > live further away from immigrants > the immigrants they do see aren't disgusting > "Why do the poors hate immigrants?"

g predicted this.

I hate cute twinks and BIPOCs and women

!r-slurs !gaslighters don't let the j*ws trick you into internalized tardmisia

wow another study where we go out of our way to prove the obvious, this really pushes forward the field.

truly intelligent people get all their thoughts and opinions directly from the media, and obediently flip those opinions when the media tells them to

Makes sense, why waste all those valid slaves unskilled workers willing to work in the jobs natives don't want to ?

If the only things anyone did were things people paid them to do, the only things that would ever get done are the things the wealthy find profitable. What a sad world that would be.

Some of us volunteer at parks.

Some of us volunteer at soup kitchens.

Some of us volunteer advice and knowledge.

Is this really that much different?

Yeah, Reddit is a for-profit company. It's still worth it to volunteer moderation duties to ensure that people have a corner to discuss and debate without having to worry about bullies. Sure, it would be nice to get a free subscription to Premium or something, but that's not going to be the main motivation.

I use uBlock Origin. This is my way of paying back the site. Well, that and all the awards I give away or generate.

And believe you me, I very much enjoy moderating bullies and keeping vulnerable populations safe from their bullying. Clicking "ban" on some random racist so they can't call someone names? Ohhhh that's payment enough.
