"But Ed Bedington, editor of the pub industry trade publication Morning Advertiser, believes an "underbelly of misogyny" still lurks.
"It's a shame because as an industry we would benefit hugely from having more female involvement," he added."

@folk ill read it more throughly later but this part in particular made me laugh.
"Our results allow us to provide a rough estimate of how many attacks against refugees would
have taken place in a counter-factual world without right-wing social media posts. Given
that the variables in our study are subject to measurement error, this calculation should be
interpreted as an illustration, rather than a precise exercise. We leave a more quantitatively
credible estimate for future research based on controlled experimental settings.
We calculate the predicted values of attacks if there where 0 anti-refugee posts on the
AfD’s Facebook page based on the conservative estimated coefficient of 14.742 in the regression
with county × week fixed effects. Multiplying with the coefficient with the AfDusers/P op.
and Refugeeposts gives us the estimated effect on the ratio of refugee attacks to asylum
seekers. Again multiplying with the number of asylum seekers, then, is the predicted number
of attacks due to right-wing social media salience. Our results imply that in the absence of
anti-refugee posts on the AfD Facebook page 437 (13%) fewer anti-refugee incidents would
have taken place. This back-of-the-envelope calculation further illustrates the non-negligible
impact of social media."
lol, yeah just pass the buck first of all
I'm not even sure what to say about the 2nd part of that paragrahp
This paper is making my head hurt
The assumptions they are making are a joke
It seems the are only look at the number of posts
yeah, like I said just that sentence I quoted above had so much inherent bias there's really no need to read this bullshit unless you _want_ to do it for fun
Not even the content of the posts to quantify it
I am triggered
Where was this published?
Nazistani Stats
it has been published in several german outlets as well
They dont even look at it compared to the growth of refugees
Or get a baseline of "hatecrimes" per capita
yes nor do they really verify their data in a meaningful way, like you already said
I cant even right now
I want to send this to TLDR
He would enjoy ripping this appart
I don't know who that is, but send it wherever you want
Well someone's gotta rip it apart
not in my estimation - it has already been sufficiently debunked for me
but I'm a Pleb
but if someone would _enjoy_ ripping it apart in detail, I would not oppose it :P
"I don't know who that is"
'Teal Deer' is a Youtube Skeptic who hates the term Skeptic Community and takes aim at everyone
he sounds pretty woke
I enjoy when he looks at scientific papers
but who does like the term Skeptic Community?
the people who use it in a derogatory manner
The White Pendragons
TL;DR fills too much time just reading shit.
Boring as fuck.
Ironic
