Causation is literally determined by correlation.

There is a high correlation between browsing /pol/ and being a tranny. After months of BBC and cuck fetish spam by trannies, I am now sure that browsing /pol/ slowly induces their users the idea of becoming or being with a tranny. Correlation led to causation.

If A -> B and C then B and C are correlated without one causing the other.

Why do y'all brainlets think causation is even real. It doesn't appear in the laws of physics. Initial conditions are not causes.

No causation is when I find a correlation and then invent an arbitrary causality model I think is likely a priori.

Correlation does not mean causation, but causation means correlation.

Strong correlation with properly controlled confounders, when alternative explanations have been ruled out, absolutely implies causation. Outside of that, you're a retard if you jump to conclusions.

Because you can have causation without correlation, if there are mitigating factors.

The problem isn't that. The problem is believing cause exists between ordering dinner and receiving dinner. In sense, there is you ordering and you receiving. Not a cause found inbetween. This same as dinner and dessert and thus same as saying dinner causes dessert.

Get it? It's classic Humean argument shit causality

Causation doesnt mean correlation lol. Correlation as it is defined is a measure of linear dependence of two variables. 0 correlation doesn't mean they are independent.
