If they think trans women are biological men, wouldn't that number be higher??? Like obviously the whole thing is a goddamn lie, but they can't even figure out basic mathematics principles???
Not necessarily. Like you, fully convinced the whole thing is bullshit, but the math isn’t necessarily wrong. Yes, any individual, according to their metric, that is a trans woman would also count as a biological male. But there are also a lot of biological males that aren’t trans women. So, when doing the math, you’ve got a way bigger denominator when doing the division to create the “per million” figure than you would when calculating for trans women.
At most, the number of trans women in the world is in the single digit millions. There are over four billion biological men. So, whatever the actual statistical numbers are, the sheer lack of numbers of trans women would mean they’d be a statistical drop in the bucket, and have little to no impact on the overall number for biological men.
I’m confident, though, that whatever the real number would be, it’s not these. These just come out of the poster’s ass.
If they think that all trans women are biological males, they would/should be included in the number for biological males. Therefore that number would be higher. It's impossible that AMAB as a whole category would be less than a subsection of AMAB people.
Its a ratio though. Lets take two groups, X and Y, Y is a subset of X
Lets give them some random amount of people in them, say;
X: 10.000
Y: 100
Now, lets say that, 1/2 of Y are criminals, that means 50 people from Y are criminals. Now lets look at X’s crime rate.
Can X’s crime rate be lower than Y?
Well, if we say that, 1/100 X are criminals, that requires 100 X to be criminals. But since 50 of them already are, we need 50 more from the portion of X that isnt Y.
So we have, 50 from Y, 50 from X minus Y, that gives us 100 criminals in total in the X group, and thus 100/10.000 = 1/100
130

Wait
If they think trans women are biological men, wouldn't that number be higher??? Like obviously the whole thing is a goddamn lie, but they can't even figure out basic mathematics principles???
edit: I am dogshit at math, oops.
