I thought this was a claim just made by people like @MattWalshBlog , but I guess it's something people actually believe, for some reason, and has even been espoused by Republicans in 2018. But this makes no sense, a 🧵1/?
First off, this assumes that porn makes people violent -- but this has been a claim criticized since the 1980s, probably even earlier than that. As a 1982 review notes, pornography does not increase aggression in men who are already not aggressive.
Another one of those anti-porn threads claiming it's harmful. This one is pretty interesting since it comes from a reboot coach, but much like my pinned thread on a similar thread, the claims being made are simply not true. 🧵 1/??

Got tagged in this thread, so I thought I'd make a response to this given the use of "science" to support the claims and the fact that I've heard these claims way too much, a 🧵
This claim comes from Kuhn and Gallinat 's study (N=64) finding that males who watched more porn had lower grey matter than those who watched less. However, their OLS regression shows lots of deviation, indicating lots of measurement error

Just some comments on the recent debate between @XanderhalTV , @IamSean90 , @NuanceBro , and some other guy on systemic racism. While I applaud Sean and Nuance, idk why Xanderhal and the other dude are talking about a topic they really don't know about
Xanderhal and Sean debated on if stop-and-frisk worked, with Sean saying yes and Xanderhal saying no, obviously, and that it was racist.
Data has shown stop-and-frisk to not be racially biased once further controls are adjusted for:
