'Links rijdt zich zo graag te pletter tegen de muur van zijn eigen grote ideologische gelijk' (opinion by Groen member Luckas Vander Taelen)

Alright, i'll let you in on my internal monologue..

"grmble brml, why won't this /u/PressXtoHuehue just quit, how many more times do I have to be rude to him.. ok, let's read what he has to say.. alright, he know about the skewed incidents rates. good. ow no. he's going into kool aid land again, oh. a source. .. hmm. he calls it credible.. Gatestone.. hmm. never heard of it.. sounds suspicious.. I bet it's some neocon righting thinkthank... let's google it.. and there we go.. "The Institute for Policy Studies, The Nation, the Council on American–Islamic Relations and the Center for American Progress have categorized Nina Rosenwald and the Gatestone Institute as anti-Muslim."

but that was before I even read the article... What a load of hyperbolic boloney.. There's so much sensationalist vitriol in there, i'm highly suspicious they're not picking and choosing their data just to fit their narrative. And they're even failing at that. e

Anyway, there's some interesting tidbits in there. the overrepresentation of foreigners in rape statistics is nothing new. Quite interesting is that it's a mix of islamic and non-islamic countries, Bulgarians are almost twice as likely to rape as Iranians apparently. My guess is because Iranian immigrants are better educated.. I bet you could apply your usuall "cultural relativist" markers for social economic status of the immigrants next to that list and get a pretty close match. The poorest worst educated rape the most, what else is new.... and what difference does it even make whether they're muslim or not..

whole thing got debunked pretty well on rediit a few months ago.
