5+6 = 11. Where's my praise? 9-5=4. I deserve more praise.

The cashier told me my bill was $4.33, just like it said on the display. I praised him for speaking truth.

Sarcasm aside, woodruffw's emphasis was on "truth", with the clear statement that Cochrane is not expressing truths but is making "unsubstantiated claims about race and sex" which are "just plain incorrect".

You earlier write that these are "facts that are taboo to acknowledge". If they are "facts", then why do we have to wait to "confirm or disconfirm all the really shocking and offensive stuff"? Shouldn't we have the facts already?

If we have to wait for confirmation then that's an hypothesis.
