I’d say this shows exactly what’s wrong. People discussing the details (although important details), but the real issues are ignored, almost like the mistakes are made on purpose to sow discord
when one party makes fighting disinformation a priority instead of spreading it they shouldn’t be suprised when it spends time arguing against blainant disinformation.
The math is a pretty big point, seeing how the post focuses on how few trans people there are compared to the other mentioned groups (the figure for “people shot” is only 1 - but the post claims it happens every day)
The math is not the point here…
It kind of is. The point of the analogy is to make the big numbers easier to grasp. If it’s just wrong, then are the other numbers even close?
Are you sure? Based on their argument, I’d say “Mathematical Literacy” is the only priority we should have right now.

Just because the inaccuracy is being pointed out doesn’t mean the real issue is being ignored.
