Datman2020What is something that people think is dangerous but in reality is completely harmless?
Video games. There’s absolutely no evidence that they make people more violent.
It’s not quite NO evidence. I would say that it’s very weak evidence of a minor effect. For example: www.apa.org/news/press/releases/…/video-games
It’s a nuanced point where the people who complain that video games are ruining society should be completely ignored, but things like age ratings on games are probably a good idea.
lasagnaIt’s very easy to correlate a lot of things. Particularly if weak correlation is sufficient. For example, what do you think we’d get if we tried to correlate murderers with cheese consumption?
