TERFs tend to be the kind of feminist who literally view feminity as sacred or magical. That quickly leads to all sorts of lovely RW views, like women are meant to produce children or whatever. It's why swerfs overlap that Venn diagram so much too. They see them as befouling their purity. Put a TERF and a Fundy in a room together, and their main difference of opinion is whether a woman should submit to a man and not have a job before pounding out babies.

I don't entirely disagree with their premise. You gotta ignore the literal slavery to put founding fathers above modern progressives, but the apparatus of a state as defense against arbitrary groups imposing their will is valid.

Like loving every other source of information in this day and age, critics accuse the IEA who projected the data in that graph of being mostly controlled by the industries they're supposed to supervise. In particular they constantly underestimate renewables production capacity, instead suggesting sequestration and nuclear as the only viable solutions to climate change. Probably that graph was created by an aggrieved greenie who views them exactly that way.

Count Roland posted:I'm not sure why difference of deaths per day is important enough to get it's own axis. Why not just show deaths vs time? You can visually see the change, that's the point of graphing it in the first place. Rate of change in a pandemic is often tied to number of cases, and the coordinate position on this graph effectively shows the R0. More useful than change in cases/time at least.

Absurd Alhazred posted:This is my fault for not additionally screencapping the image, which does have a source, Twitter just crops it in the embed: Wow, what a rabbit hole. That citation cites another source that cites another source eventually, eventually there's an organization called "sci-tech strategies" that has numerous papers that deal with the overall question of knowledge connectivity in science, and none of their papers I can find is the original source of that specific image. They're just cited generally as "Mapofscience.com" I read as many of their papers that are about maps of science as I could get from their publication list. Suffice it to say, the driving factor here is that humanties papers are very rarely published in science journals that they use for their sources. The end. That's it. That's the whole story.
