Here have this abomination, where the scale is so bad it doesn't even encompass all (perceived and non-data based) points


Quoting this so it doesn't get lost with the scale chart, because... god drat, how does this even make sense? Who looked at this and said, "Yup, that describes political philosophies perfectly."

The source: http://blog.jim.com/ (please don't touch the poop) Yes, it's an MRA blog.

Someone in the comments points out that WW2 happened. He points out that fertility started going up during WW2, so that certainly couldn't explain it, and wars don't explain the drop during the 70s. Someone points out that contraception became a Thing during the 70s. He points out we've had contraception since the Bronze Age.

Ironclad reasoning behind that chart.

I think this is kinda cool. My kids have a ton of questions about how big/deep the earth is (they like to dig in our backyard) and this could help answer it.

The internal earth on the surface thing is extremely triggering my revulsion for doing calculus on the surface of a sphere

Ngl my mind started wondering what projection that was
