Twin studies more or less debunk this for you.

I’ve seen good criticisms of twin studies and how they’re not that reliable:

The rate of abuse is six times higher amongst people were themselves subject to a use. While most would never, they are still six times more likely.

Sure but then this line of reasoning is used to justify all sorts of bad things cuz “black ppl are X times more likely to commit crimes” or “hispanics are X times more likely” or whatever. In fact this style of argument is used by those STEMlord types who love to talk to about IQ, even though the IQ researchers themselves are VERY reluctant to say anything definitive (as they should be since any kind of science is pretty much subject to all sorts of biases)

Yeah I mean that’s true.

Is it thought? I’ve seen it referred to as a harmful myth.

Can you link me some resources?

Got a source on that? Cuz I’ve seen that it’s a harmful myth.

Interesting, I’ll give it a watch.

I mean, it’s just like I said:

Wow that is a SOLID material analysis. Someone should make that into a pinned post. Kudos to the original commenter.

Don’t start doing a fucking fast walk like you’re trying to pickpocket in Assassin’s Creed ffs.
