A "direct correlation" would mean a correlation of 1. A correlation of 1 is as high as it gets. So I highly doubt the correlation between porn and WHATEVER is 1. A correlation of .7 is HIGH in terms of correlation (apparently). So high that Jordan Peterson cites the correlation when he's talking about the relationship between wealth and sexual selection success. But don't feel bad. You're not the only one using correlation wrong!
Hym "They need to retitle that video 'feminine woman DOESN'T DEBUNK FUCKING ANYTHING.' Oh shit... Have I been using correlation wrong? Oh shit! That means the correlation between fat cocks and sexual selection success can be HIGHER than .3! HOLY SHIT! I've google that word live 12 different times! How am I just now getting that!? Shit, it could even be higher than .7! What's more, there can be an inverse correlation between 2 things. You could have a correlation between fat cocks and reproductive success that it like 1 AND a correlation between baby dicks and reproductive success that is like -1. What do the studies say? Is there a study? What's the correlation between fat cock and success? It's high. I bet you 1 million dollars it's higher than .7! WE'RE BACK IN HERE! CRITICAL FAT-COCK THEORY! I look like an idiot for using it wrong but WHAT IT ACTUALLY MEANS is that I COULD BE MORE RIGHT THAN I THOUGHT I WAS! I could be MORE RIGHT THAN JORDAN!"

Get the Feminine woman DOESN'T DEBUNK FUCKING ANYTHING mug.It's a meme and warning phrase in Bengali, first used by a politician from West Bengal. It refers to 'will beat you very hard.' Also, it's a title of a song.

Get the servicing the debt mug.To buy some debous (pronounced DeeBiss), means to buy something that you don’t really need, or to be financially irresponsible. Like, for example, getting a gas station snack.

Get the Buy Some Debous mug.The self-defeating irony that vigorously debunking a false or pseudoscientific claim can actually strengthen belief in it among its adherents. This happens through mechanisms like the backfire effect (where contradictory evidence causes people to double down), the perception of persecution (debunkers are seen as part of the conspiracy), and the reinforcement of community identity (outsider attacks increase in-group solidarity). The hard problem is that using reason and evidence against a belief system that rejects standard epistemology is like using a water gun to put out a grease fire—it just spreads the flames. The debunker's toolkit (logic, data, authority) is seen by believers as the very tools of the deception.
Example: You meticulously compile scientific studies, satellite photos, and pilot testimonies to debunk Flat Earth theory to a believer. They dismiss it all: the studies are by NASA shills, the photos are CGI, the pilots are in on it. Your effort is seen as proof of how deep the "globe conspiracy" goes. The hard problem: You cannot debunk a claim from outside a person's epistemic framework. Your facts are just more "fake news" to be filtered out. The more you fight the fantasy, the more real it feels to them, turning you into a villain in their narrative and cementing their belief. Hard Problem of Debunking.

Get the Hard Problem of Debunking mug.The act of entering or structuring a debate with the primary goal of enhancing your own reputation, humiliating an opponent, or rallying your base, rather than testing ideas or seeking truth. You choose topics you know you can "win" on style points, you debate less-skilled opponents, and you use every procedural trick to control the frame. The debate is a tool for self-aggrandizement, not a vehicle for discovery.
Example: "The influencer's 'public debate' was pure self-serving debate. They picked a fringe opponent with poor speaking skills, controlled the moderators, and used slick graphics to mock rather than engage. It wasn't designed to enlighten viewers; it was a staged victory designed to generate clips for their followers and sell merchandise that said 'I Debated Logic and Won.'"
