New meta-analysis involving 86 studies and over 26,000 individuals: "Brain size and IQ associations yielded r = 0.24, with the strongest effects observed for more g-loaded tests and in healthy samples that generalize across participant sex and age bands."

A quarterly reminder that those on the left believe more often in pseudoscience (such as astrology) than those on the right.

Imagine getting your rights taken away by people who unironically think they are Libras ♎️ or Aries ♈️ and judge people based on their zodiac sign💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻.

I also wonder why believing in astrology isn’t tied in the popular imagination to prejudice and some form of “racism”, probably because shitlibs believe in it. Side note queers and women are even more likely than regular liberals to believe in it.


As a matter of fact I made a video about it https://youtu.be/1gsKP4fYq34

The original inhabitants of North America dont seem to feel very enthusiastic about mass immigration. Their views seem to be quite problematic.
