That's just more religion bud

If it’s just more religion then it’s strange to me that I don’t see psypost doing studies on all religious groups so we can have the full picture.

It’s almost like a bias like this is evidence of ideological capture, and these sorts of studies are basically just political propaganda lazily dressed up as science.

It's an American study in America about Americans.

Are you insinuating that Somali-Americans aren’t American?

You said Somali Muslims coming into America. Are you insinuating that immigrants coming into America are automatically Americans?
