Damn, that headline sure is written to make it seem like it’s something worrying. It isn’t. We thought the sun was going to go into a low activity cycle in 2008 and it didn’t. It’s interesting, but certainly not alarming. https://www.nasa.gov/science-research/heliophysics/nasa-analysis-shows-suns-activity-ramping-up/

“No, Jerry, it’s just a regular, ordinary pinecone. You know how much you love munching on pine cones!”

“But last time you lied and gave me a bird instead”

“Does this look like a bird to you?”

“No. I guess you’re right. Give it here” bites “feathers? GODDAMMIT LUCY, I FUCKING KNEW IT WAS A BIRD!”

Yes, and that’s why you’re the nerd Padawan and I’m the cool, hotshot Jedi Knight

Oh, people said things. But he just told them off and did what he was going to do anyways.

Like when he wanted cgi troopers for attack of the clones. Everyone told him it was going to be costly, look worse than real actors, and be time consuming. He stuck his feet in the sand and they did it anyways.

No

More akin to marbles on a floor or a table shuffleboard setup!

We recently figured out why ice is slippery. Normies make it seem like all that’s left to learn is at the fringes, but it’s not. Our gaps in knowledge are everywhere. Even you can be an explorer!

The last demon in Pandora’s Box for a reason. Hope is good, but not if it leads you to inaction.

This is fishy as fuck. Googling this just goes back to the same creator you linked. No other sources or anything

That link is kind of suspicious. I don’t know how much faith you can put into it.

Propaganda exists and just having a link doesn’t mean you’re right.

Who are these investigators? Where are the discord messages? It’s odd that the smoking gun of the article isn’t shown or corroborated. Or am I missing it somewhere?

Yes, that is the generalization that the article pushed. It’s not true, because developers are not homogeneous. The point of my statement is “if you are a developer, ignore this because it is not true. You don’t have some sort of power that makes you immune to marketing. You’re just as susceptible as the rest of us, just in a different way. Ya know, like everyone else is”

Yeah, but maybe we don’t make that point on the statement that reminds people to be mindful of their beliefs and where they picked them up from. Feels like a thing that we should maybe encourage in people more, if anything.

I see what you’re saying, but I’m done talking about this. Your logic is circular at its base, so there’s nothing to talk about.

No, they aren’t. Any one who thinks they are is more susceptible.

Humans are social creatures, propaganda is a social contagion.

The only people who could be would be those with no ties to anyone. Kind of a nonstarter for the whole “cooperative survival strategy” that humans got going on.

Neither

Brass instruments require the buzzing of lips in addition to the air in order to work. Since most of the dolphin’s air comes out the blowhole, but that has no mechanism to vibrate like lips it’s impossible.

You are not immune to propaganda
