Yes, that's what it means - if all other factors they list are equal, meaning if the only difference is height.

The purpose is to measure the effect of a single variable, so you make sure to correct for all other variables. For example, to measure the effect of height you might compare white men only against white men, black women only against black women, etc.

In a study measuring the gender pay gap, they would be correcting for variables other than gender.

The PFLP has boycotted the PLO for almost a decade, does operate in Gaza, and is participating in the current hostilities.

"Israel only accidentally commits genocide and ethnic cleansing. Hamas deliberately killed soldiers and settlers!"

It's actually worse, I think he's telling a black man that the police killings that led to BLM were "tragic inadvertent loss of life". pit

I think it's a weak argument with the Uighur genocide to point to increasing population, but to be fair the full argument is that the population is increasing AND there's no refugee crisis AND there's literally no evidence of genocide at all that wasn't just the made up ramblings of Adrian Zenz.

I'm reposting some of my old emoji that weren't added at the time to request them again, now that the process for emoji seems to have been streamlined. Please let me know if there are any problems.

A Finnish Air Force spokesperson told Reuters the swastika in the Finnish Air Force flag featured in the photos was introduced in 1918 – before Nazism rose in Europe.

“The first aircraft of the Finnish Air Force, a Thulin Typ D reconnaissance aircraft, was donated by [Swedish count] Eric von Rosen in 1918,” the spokesperson explained.

Wow, very interesting, let's look at this guy's Wikipedia page.

Von Rosen became brother-in-law to Hermann Göring when his wife's sister, Carin von Kantzow, married Göring.

:bruh:

However, it is wrong to claim the flag demonstrates Finland condoning Nazism, historians and the Finnish Air Force say; although Helsinki did ally with Nazi Germany between 1941 to 1944 to fight off Soviet invasion (here).

Very interesting framing, Reuters Fact Check, now face the wall.
