I have stumbled into people that eat the shit they read on social more in this last 6 months that I think should have in two lifetimes.

I know much of it is trollbots from Russia and China starting a snowball on social media nevertheless I want to find easy ways to break down shit to normies without triggering a backfire effect or a boomerang one.

So I want to dedicate this thread to sharing easy to digest evidence of things like:

* flat earth
* global warming
* antivaxx
* White supremacist cops
* wage gap
* Covid not existing/no mask

I'm really interested rn in trying to prove the existence of Covid to a friend of mine but I don't know how the fuck to do that.

I do know that every conspiracy theorist has the exact same old points and his reasoning has to be linear x->y->z->.... And sometimes relying in a "mysterious entity". Or else it breaks down unlike a guy that knows his shit.

Eg, flat earthers: Earth is a disc
If it was the case people closer to (pole that has the wall) would be tossed into space if buildings weren't built almost horizontally

Here's one on global warming that always shuts up the denialists. Short and on point.

spectroscopy proves AGW beyond any shadow of a doubt.

>The final piece of evidence is ‘the smoking gun’, the proof that CO2 is causing the increases in temperature. CO2 traps energy at very specific wavelengths, while other greenhouse gases trap different wavelengths. In physics, these wavelengths can be measured using a technique called spectroscopy. Here’s an example:

>Spectrum of the greenhouse radiation measured at the surface. Greenhouse effect from water vapor is filtered out, showing the contributions of other greenhouse gases (Evans 2006).

>The graph shows different wavelengths of energy, measured at the Earth’s surface. Among the spikes you can see energy being radiated back to Earth by ozone (O3), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N20). But the spike for CO2 on the left dwarfs all the other greenhouse gases, and tells us something very important: most of the energy being trapped in the atmosphere corresponds exactly to the wavelength of energy captured by CO2.

wage gap is a meme. its "real" but its a misunderstanding of the data. if you wanted to actually get data if people are paying women less then males for the same job then what you want is you need to compare like positions to other like positions. it gets even more complicated because you can look at the wages of computer science males vs females. but then youd also have to worry about what they are doing in the computer science field. this could also cause difference in wages. ie high paying bleeding edge shit like machine learning vs low level crud web stuff will have pay gap. there might be a difference in the females and males ratios in these positions. however over all the more you zoom in on the actual jobs the wage gap slowly goes away.

I didn't say they were. Not enough of them anyway. I was just trying to follow the other anon's reasoning.

Liberals support policies (at home and abroad) that tend to lower birth rates (sex ed, abortion, birth control), whereas conservatives support policies that go against this (abstinence instead of birth control, opposing sex ed, opposing abortion, supporting religious education) and actively fund such policies in places like Africa or Central America.

These three are extremely nuanced subjects that can't be divided into "hoax/non-hoax" or whatever. Also, non-climatologists need to shut the fuck up about global warming, whichever position they take. It's always pseuds arguing with pseuds, both of whom are pretending to have a deep grasp of a field they know zero about. I've been guilty of it myself since outright deniers (people stating there's *no* effect) are so annoying, but the whole thing is futile since it's not only a complex technical subject, it's also concerned with projecting the distant future.

But yeah, I agree that conspiracy theory thinking has a pretty good chance of eventually leading to the death of humanity. You can see the effect it's had just on this website alone. Or even from looking at this board, or just this thread. It's painful to look at.

A high percentage of people reading this have a set of beliefs about the world which are basically 80%+ completely false, and they're living like everyone else is filled with 80%+ completely false beliefs. The "two movies on one screen" phenomenon is very real.

Nope, it's the opposite. They have huge efforts to reduce birth rates in poor countries, most of which are predominantly non-white. It's religious fundamentalists who go to those countries and tell them contraceptives are the devil.

Reducing birth rates is one of the best ways to lift people out of poverty. To do that you need better healthcare and education, though - one of the reasons for high birth rates is hedging against the risk of children dying young.

If women have on average lower paid positions than men, and that causes the wage gap, wouldn't that still a bad thing? It still means that women are paid less than men overall, despite being of equal capability to them in almost all jobs. There are some jobs where the superior physical strength of men (on average) would mean fewer women would do them in a totally equal world, and that would be fine. However, jobs requiring physical strength tend to be considerably less well-paid than professional jobs in which men and women are equally well equipped. Indeed, it's been well established that women attain fewer and fewer of the proportion of roles as they increase in seniority.

Regardless, the adjusted gender wage gap does take this into account, along with a number of other factors:
>The adjusted pay gap takes into consideration an employee's age, education level, years of work experience, occupation, industry, location, company and job title and the calendar year of the reported salary.
The adjusted gap is considerably smaller than the unadjusted gap. For example, in the US the unadjusted gap is 21.4%, while the adjusted gap is 4.9%. But that's still a 4.9% advantage in male wages over female wages that isn't explained by any of those factors.

>> No.11912907

because every single study shows men and women prefer different jobs

>> No.11912968

>>11912907
If that wholly explained the gender pay gap (which of course it doesn't) we would still have to ask ourselves women prefer to do lower-paid jobs than men? Are those jobs female-dominated because they're lower-paid, or lower-paid because they're female dominated? Do we value female-dominated jobs less than male-dominated jobs and if so is it because women do them, or because they are easier/safer/require less education? What makes women and men prefer certain careers? Do women prefer less senior roles then men and why? Are women discouraged from applying to senior roles? Are they as likely as men to obtain them? What amount of career preference can be attributed to biological differences between men and women and what can be attributed to society influencing people to enforce gender roles? What proportion of the pay gap can be attributed to career choice?

You can see that this is a complex and multifaceted topic, and an explanation like "men and women prefer different jobs" doesn't really explain anything, just raises more questions.

The whole gender pay gap thing is pretty much a self defeating issue. If you assume it to be true it turns the world into a clown world and requires massive mental gymnastic to make it work
So women do the same work for less pay, why aren't companies hiring exclusively women?
>well they are all of course lead by racist men!!
Surely couple companies would put money before their egos? Maybe some middle manager might be blocking women out of personal reasons but some jewish share holder would love nothing more than demote men and make more profit
>I have literally no explanation
Even if we pretend share holders don't want money (which is absurd) women could simply make companies themselves, being more efficient they would quickly out compete companies with male workers even if the starting point was some how lower thanks to patriarchy or what ever. The only way this wouldn't happen is there was some massive global conspiracy intended to keep women down and if you actually think men are all in on some big brotherhood thing against women then I don't know what to say.

Basically you have to be schizophrenic to think women categorically get compensated less for the same work.
The reality is actually the other way around where women do less work for the same amount of compensation and the reason why that can happen is because men think with their dicks and overcompensate women which is entirely self consistent position and requires exactly 0 global cabals of men conspiring against women.

Well it's actually pretty unfair to say that, the fact of the matter is that most people (including men) aren't fairly compensated since people don't get paid by the fruits of their labor but rather some kind of fixed salary. A male warehouse worker sorting trough 50% more mass than a woman will be paid the same as the male that goes trough double even though that's not fair. Reason being obviously that it's simpler to just pay everyone pretty much the same saving money overall.

>why do women prefer lower wage jobs
They don't explicitly, but many of them want kids and to care for them - so there goes 5-10 years work experience.
Also women are more interested in people/ social aspects of work than hard engineering/ science.
>Are the jobs lower paid because they are female dominated?
No. They are lower paid because they are not as hard.
>What makes men women prefer certain careers?
Biology. Personality types differ between men and women (agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism...), as does the IQ distribution- and again the fact women want kids.
>Are women discouraged
No they are actively encouraged. Take the nordic countries. They have done the most to attempt to equalise equality of outcome between the sexes and it HEIGHTENED sex differences instead of diminishing them.
>enforced gender roles
heritability of the above traits crystalises out by age 24. Also as above with scandanavia, removing the stereotypes HEIGHTENS sex differences.

Women also work less hours per year on average, so its not just job type, but working less.

At the end of the day most women have to choose - do they want a healthy family or a stellar career. They can have one but not the other.

So yes they prefer different jobs for biological reasons and this explains a majority of the variance.

Okay so the wage gap is a big meme. You just agreed the 70% or whatever meme number is a retarded. Women don’t make 70 cents for every dollar a male make or whatever for the same work like Obama said. Also I can’t find your 5% figure I found there is a 2% figure on this website. https://www.payscale.com/data/gender-pay-gap.. Now we are picking hairs. What causes this 2 percent wage gap? I can think of a couple reasonable reasons why. Women get pregnant have to leave work. You can probably look at the amount of time work and maybe men make more hours so bosses are more likely to give them bonuses. Men are more likely to negotiate wages. etc. these things are impossible to control for. This is moving the goal post. So to look at the bigger picture. Why do we value if one sex over all makes more money then a different sex, why should we value this? Why do we need equality? You’d have to show a greater “equality” makes for better outcomes. Currently women are happier then men by a huge amount over all and they make less money. They are so oppressed they are way happier then men on average. This does not follow.

This is why women are useless for science, they lie shamelessly to protect their position.

I bet you have exactly zero contact with the e-sports community. Because if you did you would see the women that go to tournaments, narrate games, etc...

I didn't know there were other kinds of climate sensitivity? As far as I understood things, climate sensitivity was just temperature increase per unit [insert variable] (Usually CO2 concentration).

You're suggesting it is linear wrt radiative forcing? How do we know that?

As far as i understand climate sensitivity is the key parameter not CO2 concentration. As the relationship to back radiation is logarithmic (ie running through the calcs you get a 0.3% increase in back radiation from doubling current CO2 levels. Knowing the actual temperature increase is very dependent on climate sensitivity (is it a number? A variable dependent on one thing? many things?). And how do we test our climate sensitivity predictions?

idk why but intuitively linearity seems 'off'.

It's not linear. He posted a differential equation. Lambda clearly must depend on T itself, for all the feedback loops (loss of ice sheets for example) to be included.

It's correct. The science is settled.

>>11913745
It is a linear ODE. and no, there isnt a feedback loop there. dT/dF = (lambda)
And if lambda does depend on T shouldn't it be of the form
dT/dF = L[f(T)] or similar?

I'm not talking about the esports community, I'm talking about the wider hardcore gaming community. I'm sure the esports community is considerably less toxic. The esports community draws its uh, 'athletes' from the hardcore gaming community so it's no surprised there are few women.
>>11913697
Not implying that at all. I think you'd find most transgender women in the gaming community were gamers before they transitioned, so were able to exist in that community and become familiar with it without the hostility before they came out as transgender. I have no doubt they experience more hostility within the gaming community than cis women, but unlike cis women they haven't experienced that hostility from the very start, i.e. the moment at which they would most likely give up gaming as an interest because they're not yet invested in it.

It's linear if you assume Lambda constant. Lambda should absolutely depend on T, and CO2, and literally hundreds of other variables.

It's also highly dependent on initial conditions, as chaotic systems tend to be.

You realize gaming has attracted a lot of women, too?

You are claiming women are so weak that they can be oppressed invisibly over the internet in games that completely anonymize the player, including masking sex. It is nearly impossible to play a game like DOTA and only play sex matched characters. As a male player, I didn't look at the character's gender at all, it was about mechanics, fun, and competitive advantage. And this discussion ignores games like RTS's that completely remove sex nearly entirely.

You are making up bullshit out of thin air. Let's put it this way, I played WoW in high school. One of my high school girlfriends now plays WoW after marrying someone after college.

You cannot appreciate how many women play these games at a casual level, because they are invisible. This proves your entire argument baseless, as this same invisibility is perhaps the best defense against hostility.

Your thesis is that women are strong enough to endure the hostility of internet arguments, but not strong enough to endure the hostility of being told, "GG NERD!"
