#Graph depicting the correlative #trend between number of homicides per 100k of population & mean national #IQ, with Pearson correlation coefficient, for 241 countries & dependencies, 2023.

The #graph shows that as the mean national IQ goes up, the number of homicides per 100k of #population goes down, with a strong correlation of 0.57. This suggests to me that the more #intelligent a population is, the less inclined to commit #homicide it is.

Murder rates in red and blue areas are the opposite of what republicans claim

Republicans love to claim that murder rates are higher in blue areas (mostly cities), but a look at the data shows that this claim, like everything else republicans say, is a bald-faced lie.

This should come as no surprise, but I for one (and I suspect many other liberals) am/are still surprised to learn that republicans have lied yet again. Not exaggerated; not stretched the truth; out and out fucking lied.

I think the reason I can't fathom this reality is that I am unable to empathize with republicans: There is simply no universe I can imagine in which I would lie with the reckless abandon -- the sheer disregard for truth -- with which republicans lie. I simply cannot imagine a species vile enough to do such a thing.

But this is what republicans are. And until we liberals give up trying to empathize with/understand these subhumans and deal with the reality of what they actually are, we will never defeat them and their fascist agenda: A person who plays by the rules can never defeat one who cheats unless they understand the ubiquity and nature of the cheating.

We don't have to stoop to their tactics, but we sure as hell have to understand them and adapt our own tactics to them. And the first step in this process is to accept that republicans will never be honest brokers in anything, ever.
