Huh? Did you LLM-like hallucinate that part?
>No one lost this ability
You'd be surprised.
>Making generalizations is bad, it's weird you would openly propose doing it.
Making generalizations is the cornerstone of understanding the world, and the basis of science. The alternative is taking each element of larger clusters of things and behaviors as some unique snowflake, and never learning any greater lesson ("missing the forrest for the trees").
>You're claiming statistics have less value than limited personal observations?
Merely claiming? This is reality 101. Anything you can directly observe is more real than some third or fourth-hand statistical "knowledge".
>You also used the phrase "forced-fed" as a manipulation tactic to make people think whatever you mentioned after it is bad.
Or, you know, I used it to accurately describe the way statistics are created, manipulated, promoted, and used to paint all kinds of pictures state and private interests want to promote. Which is how they got their place at the worse end of the scale after "lies" and "damned lies".
