> Of the 421 violent posts identified from September 2011 to September 2022<p>421 posts over a period of 11 years. That's less than one a week. From a subreddit with (at present) 1.1 million subscribers. Whoop-die-fucking-doo. Hacker News has more violent posts than that.<p>It's pretty clear from the very first sentence that this piece is hugely judgemental and coloured. This is not a scientific publication, it's a blog post, and not a very good blog post to boot. This seems part of some bigger pissing match and a scientific publication is being narcissist abused because "believe the science!" or some such.<p>I have no real knowledge or like or dislike of /r/NoFap or anyone else here, but this does not seem like a serious study or analysis or anything else.
