It's not whataboutism when it's on topic. You should look up that word. Also, anecdotes don't matter when you try to compare things. Statistics do though.

  1. Right wing sources, yay.

  2. If you honestly compare Germany and the US, you will notice that the prevalence of rape is much higher in the US (US: ~43/100k vs. Ger: ~15/100k, source: statista.com). Comparing gang rape specifically is more difficult though, because the US doesn't seem to keep track of that (or at least i couldn't find absolute numbers). According to Wikipedia 22.8% of rapes with female victims where gang rapes. That makes ~9/100k in the US vs ~1/100k in Germany.

Then again I don't think statistics regarding a lot of crimes are easily comparable. There might be differences regarding underreporting and legal definitions that skew numbers in different ways.

We might overuse that comeback, but at least we don't have school shootings.

Even if there are more klicks, there is no way any of these lead to a decision to buy their crap.

Someone over at reddits Buttcoin sub calculated that he must have cashed out something or he would have been at 300k now.

Had a colleague that told me about some memes with a gay porn star. He couldn't grasp that I neither know the guy nor the memes. Allegedly they were all over the internet for years. I've never seen any of them since.

This guy is a libertarian right wing incel, so I'm pretty sure our internet experiences are completely different.

The headline says "fact-finding mission to China" though.
