    I don’t like to analyze myself because I might not like what I see

    ^ Trump in an interview in 2014

    I’m angry we’re on a path to re-elect a piece of shit to lead my country, a person who knows he’s a piece of shit but actively avoids thinking about it.

    Also, I’m a woman. Segregating on gender for no damn reason also makes me angry.

        for no damn reason

        Disaggregating data by gender has legit purposes. You do that to the data after the fact though. Setting up one survey for women and one for men pollutes the outcome.

        You must suck at statistics. See? I can do it too! People who misuse statistics and data to shit on women also makes me angry.

          Yes. At the time I’m commenting, 1 out of 2 questions on the “women’s” question is about the gendered nature of the question itself (50%). And 2 out of 11 on the “mens” (18%). The dataset has already been “polluted” as you describe, by the design of the questions.

              I would expect a control then, a group that is asked the question without the gendered piece. But that can’t be done here on this Lemmy community now because we’ve already seen the gendered versions of the question.

              Not like Lemmy is the place to do this sort of thing anyway. In addition to very limited population size, expect a higher rate of STEM folks compared to general population, meaning a higher rate of people who have had a 101 class level on statistics or better. Combined with sarcastic internet commenters. It all means unsubtle manipulations like this gendered question are going to fall flat.

              Then comments calling out the unnecessary, ham-handed gendering should be expected data points.

    We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat. We sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes as if that’s the way it’s supposed to be! We know things are bad, worse than bad, they’re crazy!!! It’s like everything everywhere is going crazy so we don’t go out anymore! We sit in the house and slowly the world we’re living in is getting smaller and all we say is ‘please at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won’t say anything’!

    Because my country is directly enabling, and depending on the definition, participating in a genocide and there is no one I can vote (who would likely win) for who will do even the slightest thing to stop it.

    I hoped I might be eligible for Irish citizenship through my grandfather, and recently found out that I’m not.

    My visa runs out soon and I have to return to the imperial core.

    Not angry in general.

    If the question is what does enrages me, an answer is probably human stupidity. Or the idea that we have just better than animals. We aren’t, we are just like animals, but with the potential to be so much more. Then comes human stupidity… Well.
