AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF SCIENTIFIC STUDIES PROVE DEFINITIVELY THAT RIGHT WING BELIEFS ARE HEAVILY CORRELATED WITH LOW INTELLIGENCE:
Bright Minds and Dark Attitudes: Lower Cognitive Ability Predicts Greater Prejudice Through Right-Wing Ideology and Low Intergroup Contact
Low IQ & Conservative Beliefs Linked to Prejudice
Study links low intelligence with right-wing beliefs
Right-wing ideology and numeracy: A perception of greater ability, but poorer performance
Conservatism and cognitive ability
Intelligent people are more likely to be left-wing, says science
People with lower emotional intelligence are more likely to hold right-wing views, study finds

After 2016 I spent a lot of tine on reddit talking to Trump voters to understand why.
Overwhelmingly they believe things that aren’t true. Basic misconceptions of the world cascading in on one another culminating into the stupidest vote of their life.
One guy thought Obama was a vain man because he named his healthcare plan Obamacare. When I told him the healthcare plan was called the Affordable Care Act, and that Republicans and the media called it Obamacare as a way to hurt it, gis brain couldn’t process it because why would the media parrot Republican talking points if they were all biased towards Democrats?
You can understand how this individual would make this mistake. He pays just enough attention to be misinformed. Three generations of right-wing propaganda, the world’s most disciplined messaging machine repeating the same lies and half-truths have absolutely run roughshod over this type of person.
Mamdami is forcing children to participate in a heinous Islamic ritual called Al-gebra. It’s like, demonic spells or something.
And teaching them how to do Islamic ablutions, like using mouthwash and washing their hands. And showering! Heinous!
He probably uses Islamic inventions like H’ard So’ap and Bi-nominal functions!! SINCE WHEN DO NUMBERS NEED TO HAVE SEXUAL PREFERENCES?!
They even drink the Muslim Beverage C’off We!
Someone dumb enough to be concerned would definitely also think a basic equation looked like stygian summoners runes
Excuse me… all the links above use Arabic numbers: they are unreliable.
Thank you for your attention to this matter
Damn “woke ass” numbers
I refuse arabic numbers. What the fuck is 2? 7? 9??? These are all made up concepts invented to corrupt the mind of people.
Look at how elegant these look instead: 10, 111, 1001.
I dont care if i have to say it X times, roman numerals are superior
If I’ve said it once I’ve said it 𒁹𒌋𒌋𒌋𒌋 times, the babylonians got it right
Base 12 ftw.
It’s base 60 actually. With up to 5 𒌋 meaning 10 followed by up to 9 𒁹 meaning one. I actually should have put a space between the 60s place and the 1s place and formatted it as: 𒁹 𒌋𒌋𒌋𒌋
It’s a lot easier to read in clay because you bunch the characters up within their place, and if it were used in modern day it would likely be autocorrected to make it easier
IV/V Romans agree…
They are letters tho.
they have played us for absolute fools
Why use many digits when few digits do trick?
This is the way. Embrace binary numbers. Reject everything that is nonbinary.
In all seriousness thank God for the Arabic number system. It would be a nightmare to use Roman numerals for math

AKA dumb and ignorant people believe more lies. Trump loves the uneducated.
The Arab Numerals joke is old. I heard this over two decades ago in the wake of 9/11 and I’m sure it’s not the first iteration.
It’s funny because the anti muslims are ignorant of the contributions muslims made to society and language, and are unaware those are the numerals we use.
It’s funny because we keep pointing it out, and every fucking individual conservative shitslinger has had this lesson multiple times, and it never seems to stick.
I know, it’s getting dumber too. A lot dumber.
Many of their influencers, it’s not that they don’t know, they don’t care. They are playing the sheep, and they’ve been taught from their influencers and leaders how to do it, and truth plays little to no part in any of it.
I need a hug. We live in such a depressing world sometimes.
Oh no. Instead of writing out the numbers like one, two, three they will have to write them out like 1, 2, 3. The horror! 😱
Ive always wanted to share these on facebook as a way to call people stupid.
But then I realized they wouldn’t understand it at all.
Years ago a German satire show interviewed random people on the street. They asked them what they think about the fact that “children are now forced to learn arabic numbers in German Schools”. The interviewers flawlessly baited a bunch of idiots into exposing their mindless xenophobia on TV
My only regret about his death is that he got to die doing what he loved: deflecting questions about gun violence with racist dog whistles so overused they’ve become bullhorns
Honestly it was so fuckin poetic I can’t even be upset about it. Charlie wouldn’t either, because white people shootings don’t even count to him.
I made it myself!
I could not believe that I was the first
Please use it to piss off conservatives
You have not only my blessing, but an enthusiastic endorsement
Inspired work of art, FistingEnthusiast 👏 May you have many more.
I create a lot of art
My porn channel recently hit two million happy little perverts, and I have something in the vicinity of forty million views of my work
But this is still one of my favourite pieces
I can’t believe you’d promote your porn channel but then wouldn’t add any links so I could make sure I’d avoid accidentally seeing that porn. What kind of a monster does that?
Well, it’s already on Facebook.
I’m torn…
But I hope that conservatives will be upset, and on that I will rest happily
One of my favourite conspiracies is that academic spaces are overwhelmingly left-leaning.
There’s a reason the right is constantly seeking to make schools worse and good education harder to access.
They don’t want competition, and they especially don’t want people that are immune to bullshit.
It’s actually something that has been done pretty much by anyone in power in the past who was trying to consolidate their position without actually giving the people what they want.
Hitler’s regime started by rounding up scientists and scholars purely to make sure nobody got any ideas that were detrimental to his power.
It’s just sad that the voters for (extremist) right people don’t see that the endgame is just for a select group, not for all, and they see themselves as part of that select group whilst they’re actually part of the other.
So MAGA folk think they’re part of that elite group that will benefit from right wing dismantling of social programs and not part of poor immigrants whilst they’re actually economically closer to those poor immigrants. Not just America, though, Germany is going in that direction as well right now and in Europe more and more of these voices are being heard.
Yup, a CERTAIN JACKASS in Cambodia did the exact same. Killed people just because they wore glasses which was a sign of dangerous intellectualism.
Yet tankies will still glaze pol pot for some reason…
Oh yeah, all that while he used glasses, had studies in both Cambodia and France, and overall was everything he hated.
I bet he’s not even talking about the real classical symbols but the new woke version!
I was honestly surprised when I visited Egypt for the first time and discovered they have different symbols for numbers in Arabic. Also, they look kind of the same as the one used with Latin alphabet, but there are some tricks like ٥ is 5 and ٦ is 6, so yeah … you have to learned them, you can’t just guess.
I discovered when changing my standby background on my iPhone, and have been using them ever since.
Woke, if not even DEI!
I thought she was talking about Polymarket posting this as a serious matter. Then I noticed who she is…
