It's not about what you actually are saying

And even beyond this, it's not about truth at all.

This is why 13/50 is pointless, no shitlib will ever be convinced of anything by it.

Their beliefs are not based on facts or truth.

You can't be reasoned out of something you were never reasoned into to begin with.

I use 13/50 as a conversation ender with leftists, not a dialog point. When someone tells me about white supremacy and the horrors of cops killing unarmed blacks, 13/50 is my reply. They know what it means, and they won't engage it. Which is fine: I don't want to talk to diehard leftists.

Other people are honestly unaware of facts like that, and it may help them. Middle of the road sorts, conservative normies. It's easy to forget that outside of subs like this, those stats are practically unheard of. Leftists get tongue-tied when they try to explain how being poor is why blacks commit so many more rapes.
