no! Thanks for the help. Is that a 'pure math' example? Which one is right? What is the political ideology of each?

Define pure maths in quotes. Both. Frequentists: probability is frequency — Bayesians: probability is degree of belief.

if they're both right they're not 'going down the wrong path" like lysenkoism or geocentrism then?

@hierodula What does right mean? A Bayesian would say a frequentist is less right in their interpretation and vice versa.3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

would they say that because the other has a political ideology blinding them to their privilege though?

Homework: Google how Fisher [who was neither a Bayes nor a Freq, but a Likelihoodist] claimed that smoking doesn't cause cancer.
