Why does the chart go from 1940 to 1900 to 1990?

[–] name_NULL111653@pawb.social 6 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

It's a 6. 1920, 1940, 1960, 1980, 2000. Very mouldy meme though.

Yup, here's a higher resolution image in case anyone wants one that's more readable.

Children who were left handed were HEAVILY punished and pretty much forced to learn to use their right hand Hence "there were no left handed people back in my days"

My grandfather was born in the 40s and a lefty. He was forced to write with his right hand so much he ended up with terrible penmanship regardless of what hand he wrote with

Left handed is also more common in neurodivergent people, autism has higher rates of “not-right handedness” which includes left handedness and mixed handedness

Ah, yes, that makes sense.
