I’m so glad that things like survivorship bias and statistical outliers became memes I wish more critical thinking skills would become widely-understood this way, I’m not kidding let’s get on this
”Turtles are showing up full of straws” “Nobody was trans when I was your age” “Why does everyone have allergies now” “Our ancestors survived without vaccines” “My grandma never had an income or driver’s license and THEY were married for decades” “I’m saving the rest of my medication for later cause I feel better now”
Look at the plane until you understand
My momma used to tell us not to fear the noises we heard in the woods at night because if something designed to kill us wanted to kill us then we wouldn’t hear it coming and at the time it was horrifying and unsettling but now I wish we all had heard that at least once growing up
