AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF SCIENTIFIC STUDIES PROVE DEFINITIVELY THAT RIGHT WING BELIEFS ARE HEAVILY CORRELATED WITH LOW INTELLIGENCE:
Bright Minds and Dark Attitudes: Lower Cognitive Ability Predicts Greater Prejudice Through Right-Wing Ideology and Low Intergroup Contact

Study links low intelligence with right-wing beliefs
Right-wing ideology and numeracy: A perception of greater ability, but poorer performance
Conservatism and cognitive ability
Intelligent people are more likely to be left-wing, says science

The Arab Numerals joke is old. I heard this over two decades ago in the wake of 9/11 and I’m sure it’s not the first iteration.
It’s funny because the anti muslims are ignorant of the contributions muslims made to society and language, and are unaware those are the numerals we use.

Same goes for the old dihydrogen oxide one.
The dihydrogen monoxide one was traditionally, in my experience, a conservative joke to make fun of the do gooders that wanted to not have toxic chemicals in the air, water, food, etc.
Going way way back to the 90s and before.
I think you meant to say IX/XI.
It’s funny because we keep pointing it out, and every fucking individual conservative shitslinger has had this lesson multiple times, and it never seems to stick.
I know, it’s getting dumber too. A lot dumber.
Many of their influencers, it’s not that they don’t know, they don’t care. They are playing the sheep, and they’ve been taught from their influencers and leaders how to do it, and truth plays little to no part in any of it.
