This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

i feel like the methodology is off.
i feel like a proportion of the population, yes, is significantly morally bad. almost one in four. (yes i have done the nitty gritty math 75 million out of 350ish million equals something) does that make all of my fellow countrymen morally bad? no. I'm still going to treat them as, on average, good, until evidence shows they are part of the population that is morally bad. in part because my locale did not vote overwhelmingly for krasnov, in part because i believe in giving people enough rope to hang themselves with.
in short, they need to be prepared for at least a bimodal distribution.
