Businessmen figured out early on that teenagers aren't especially big on religion and they have natural sexual urges that were suppressed by Christian puritanism. People's window to the world expanded and they were introduced to new values.\n\nHollywood recognized a market demand and capitalized on it by selling 'smut' to horny teens and kids who were digging media that would upset their parents.

In the 80s, the Satanic Panic just made it more popular with counter-culture youth.\n\nIn the 90s, counter-culture turned mainstream and the rise of modern atheism as a contrary belief system developed which used the Satanic Church as a way to attack the Christian influence in politics by satirizing the separation of church & state.\n\nSlayer rules.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/jz3KIFMw92E", "As a Californian, I represent that remark.", "Ironically less prone to drama than the Skyrim modding community.", "well that was some coherent Schizo rant.

They just banned \"smaller\" cities from building tall buildings. So Shanghai could probably build another huge building, but they want to stop all the smaller cities from building buildings that are a waste of resources.\n\nTo put it in US terms it'd be like if Salt Lake City, Tampa, or Austin built one of the largest towers in the world. It'd be a waste because they both have the space, but also it's pure vanity. Just build three normal sized towers at 50% of the total cost. \n\nThey basically are trying to put a cap of things because super talls cost so much more than even normal sky scrapers.

(Unless you are the Central Park Tower at 1,550 ft tall but that's both residential and really skinny, $100 million+ per apt.).\n\nThe most recent new/tall sky scraper in the US I can think of is the 1,070 ft tall Salesforce tower in San Fran.\n\nTo compare Empire State Building is 1,250′, or 1,454′ to tip\n\nThe original World Trade Center was 1,355 at the top floor.\n\nNow compare those to:\n\nBurj Khalifa : 2,717\n\nMerdeka 118: 2,113\n\nShanghai Tower: 2,073\n\nChina has eight buildings over 1,500 ft and a couple that are like 1,475.\n\nThat last few hundred feet add insane amounts to the cost of the building. That's what I think they are trying to achieve. Now none of that is trying to argue against your main point that they are building way over demand in many areas.

The ship stays afloat, with relatively few problems.\n* The bow crumples, but leaks extend to the 5th or further compartments. Being fairly slow leaks between sprung plates, the pumps can almost keep up, and the ship either sinks very slowly, or damage control measures manage to keep up.\n* The shock of the collision causes brittle rivets to spring most of the way down the ship, causing whole plates to fail. The ship floods from 10 compartments at once, and sink in minutes.\n\nAny of them are credible, it depends what assumptions you make about the iceberg and quality of metalwork.", "Yeah, like they're *not* going to try to avoid the danger by steering out of its path. Disappointingly theoretical.", "So options are:\n\n* 'Quickly' engineer additional boyancy to level out the rolling (but mentioned there was nothing capable of doing this)\n* Chop off 1/4 of the entire ship ??? somehow?? \n* Add an enormous amount of weight (somehow) low to the rear end of the ship (arguably the only realistic option here but still logistically impossible even if there was full awareness of what was going on at the time of the disaster)\n* Crash head on into the iceburg? (I mean if youre going to suggest this, might as well suggest just not hit the iceburg at all)\n\nSo yeh.. Simple.. Titanic didnt need to sink!!", "Yeah. Easily the way to fix this problem is to have buoyancy where there wasn't buoyancy. Stupid engineers", "Crashing head on would have been bad, but possibly not as bad as you would think. Things like that have happened, I've been watching videos on naval history for a couple years and I've seen a few stories of severely crumpled bows. Even the chopping off of a ships front and towing it great distances for repairs has happened.\n\nI think It's an interesting concept.", "If you knew there was a possibility of this particular accident, you could have some right sized explosive charges ready to go. As soon as the impact occurs, pop some holes in the stern sections to keep up with the water rushing in to the bow. That's the only one of the options that sounds kinda almost sorta feasible." ]

The production of the song is fairly spare and the audio is crunchy and degraded which I believe adds to its alternatively quiet and keening wailing vocals. \n\nThe audio mixing by Rick Reuben for Johnny Cash’s was more reflective, something which I feel comes through in Cash’s intonation while singing. Even though Cash’s voice did not have great range at the time (cancer is a bitch), it has a more subdued force behind it. His performance metaphorically screams with hindsight, regret, love, and sorrow. It twists the souls because it was recorded in 2002, when he knew he was dying. It was released in March of 2003, about six before he died in September of 2003. \n\nPersonally, I love both versions of the song. They both excel in different ways.

SNL, after a point, just wasn't very funny and not very absurd in any meaningful way (honestly the king of modern American absurdist humor always has been and always will be David Letterman), and they tended to force the humor most of the time.

It's research from an actual fucking laboratory. Not some geocities page where I found a list of essential oils and which angel they are related to.", "There is no evidence of this, so you shouldn’t speculate. There was even a report released this week that says it wasn’t a bio weapon, and beyond that we don’t know, and perhaps will never know. \n\nThere’s no evidence JFK Jr made Covid, too. That’s no excuse to say “BUT HE COULD HAVE. THERE’S NO EVIDENCE HE DIDN’T.”\n\nJust, stop with the zero-science, maximum emotions positions.

Metagenomic RNA sequencing4 of a bronchoalveolar lavage fluid sample identified a novel RNA virus from the family Coronaviridae, designed here as WH-Human-1 coronavirus. Phylogenetic analysis of the complete viral genome (29,903 nucleotides) revealed that the virus was most closely related (89.1% nucleotide similarity) to a group of SARS-like coronaviruses (genus Betacoronavirus, subgenus Sarbecovirus) previously sampled from bats in China.\n\nThese are Chinese researchers admitting that this is from bats in their own country and the Chinese government approved their work and even applauded their efforts.", "Right. And this guy (and year old YouTube clip) has somehow been missed by the many expert studies of the virus’ origin from around the world. Including a major one released just this week. \n\nhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-59100114\n\nIt’s the same parody of the research process you guys use for 9/11 or Comet Ping Pong conspiracies. *“This guy was there!! It’s a primary source!!”*", "That was not what I said at all. I'm saying that this is a piece of documentation that supports the commonly known fact that the virus originated in the Wuhan area and China unknowingly paid for and promoted the production of this evidence just before it became a real problem that they tried to distance themselves from. Nobody said anything about ping pong. That is kind of racist...", "We *know* the farthest we can trace the virus’s spread is from this reason. We *know* viruses hopping from mammals to humans is how epidemics usually start. And we know that it’s the job of epidemiologists to look for potential viruses and threats in the wild, to understand and prepare for emergencies. That’s what all leading nations do. \n\nThat is **not** what videos and posts like this try to do. They are presented to *imply* some kind of negligent or deliberate, scary-Chinese-lab involvement in the spread. Which is completely unfounded, with no evidence for it. \n\nIt’s the dark start of nation-state rivalries, removal of cooperation, conspiracy thinking, and violence against ethnicities. All because someone is deliberately doing this, or not smart enough to know the difference. \n\nThis is the equivalent of a video of one of your government bodies studying the risk of an attack on the WTC - and posted to imply that there was some kind of official government involvement.", "Also, nobody said anything about a bio-weapon.

Good find :D", "Holy shit!", "The video doesn't say any of that. It's just showing that Wuhan is a virus-laden wonderland for vaccine research and bats were clearly involved in starting this disaster.

And if they do WHEN THEY DO then you can jump down their throats FB.", "So the lab in Wuhan said it came from bats in China from the beginning. But sure, just ignore that.

Not only is it guaranteed in this climate, encouraging it seems to be the only reason why this was posted. \n\nThere was an official, measured report, widely seen, released two days ago, that puts everything in context. This kind of video in response takes away all context, and is a risk to people’s lives we just don’t need at the moment. \n\nThis topic is perhaps more dangerous to everyday citizens than Comet Ping Pong was. So can do better, is my point.", "CCP paid for this? It has to be true.

Good luck in life!", "Nice, now make one about guys with no drip 🥴", "Gaudy has multiple definitions here is one.\n\n**Gaudy**: marked by extravagance or sometimes tasteless showiness. \n\n\nIn this case it isn't the shirt's design that is the gaudy part but the fact that you are communicating how much you unnecessarily spent on a very basic item instead of spending it on things that are much more worthwhile. Maybe it would help if you knew ostentatious is a synonym for gaudy.\n\n**ostentatious**: attracting or seeking to attract attention, admiration, or envy often by gaudiness or obviousness : overly elaborate or conspicuous : characterized by, fond of, or evincing ostentation.\n\nThe fact of the mater the design of a Supreme t-shirt that is nothing but a basic white t with just a red logo that says it's brand is the height of being ostentatious. It is just a regular t-shirt that isn't more comfortable or durable than most other shirts and there is no art to look at and nothing on the shirt to distract others from the logo which is there just to communicate how \"hip\" and rich you are but not everyone thinks that way and I think it shows you are a sucker. The t-shirt costs $20 but the logo costs the other $40-$1000.\n\nMaybe you are the kind of person that thinks a gold toilet is classy but that is what a poor person imagines what a classy rich person would be like more than anything. Having a lot of money doesn't mean you have class or taste and when you spend a lot of money on vapid and banal things to try and look cool it shows. A smooth well dressed person uses their personality to socialize and doesn't just rely on a logo on their chest. I don't equate being a billboard for a company with being cool but it shows how you will sell out and how desperately you want people to admire you. \n\nEveryone I have met that only wears certain expensive name brands has been more shallow than a kiddy pool. I have met people that only wear things like TapouT, Ed Hardy, Affliction, Abercrombie & Fitch and Guuci and these products whose sole purpose is vanity by brand name just attract assholes like it is catnip for them.", "Now a plain white tee is the height of ostentatiousness? This is thrilling. That shirt is going to attain sentience if you keep going.", "I feel like I am trying to explain quantum physics to a 5 year old, my first instinct was right.", "You shouldn’t try to explain quantum physics to anyone if you don’t understand quantum physics. Stay being mad at people for wearing clothing.", "But I do know some quantum physics. I am no expert mind you but I was a STEM major that likes to learn about physics and space and would be happy to explain the implications of the double slit experiment's interference pattern explains wave–particle duality and how measuring things changes outcomes via the observer effect from being a being a probability field where all outcomes exist into a single result in our universe.\n\nOr would you like me to explain how the Heisenberg Uncertainly Principle isn't to be confused with the observer effect because the more certainty we have of a particle's location the less certainly we have of it's momentum and vice versa is independent from how the actual act of measuring collapses the probabilities into a singular outcome.\n\nMaybe you are curious on why quantum computing is a such a big deal and on what kind of problems it will help such as likely speeding up the Internet's most important algorithm the Fast Fourier Transforms (FFTs) by being able to do multiple data streams in parallel but also why it will not speed up processing on some algorithms at all and isn't a general all purpose increase in speed to a regular computer processor. How Qubits are the core of quantum computing and unlike binary bits represent a combination of all possible configurations and how when a pair of them are entangled we can leverage their relationship to find solutions to certain complex problems.\n\nHowever I think you would rather pay too much for a massively overpriced t-shirt so you can shill for a company because you think it makes you cool.", "Nah, just explain how plain = gaudy.", "It doesn't directly, you are caught up on the shirt itself. It isn't the plain shirt itself that is the gaudy, it is the how the logo on the shirt is a symbol that communicates to everyone that you bought a massively overpriced expensive name brand and I think we should be using the word ostentatious because you clearly are still thinking of the wrong definition of gaudy.\n\nHad the overpriced plain t-shirt not had the logo then it would not be gaudy it would just simply be overpriced and a bad financial decision. But would people pay the same high dollar amount for such a plain logo-less shirt, probably not.\n\nWhich is back to the point why do people want a shirt with a brand name on it? They want other people to know they paid for an expensive brand but also because they believe it will make them more attractive and cool, that it will give them status. It does communicate that you likely have money but you could do that instead by buying things that actually have a higher craftsmanship and quality, when you want a t-shirt just buy one that looks cool and use that extra money to do something useful.\n\nI mean why does someone like the brand Supreme? Did some advertising somehow speak to that person on a spiritual level and improve their quality of life or are they just being fleeced by a corporation that thinks you are a sucker for buying a $1000 crowbar that has the supreme logo on it that is laughing in their board room about how their customers are so fucking stupid they will wait in line for the privilege to be scammed by an item with a manufactured scarcity that they did nothing but buy off the shelf themselves and slap a sticker of their logo on it?\n\nImagine you have $100,000 to spend on a car and need a new car as you wrecked your last one. You have narrowed it down to two cars. Car #1 is a car that does everything you possibly want for $70,000 it is fast and cool and has the features you want but is made by a relativity new company that has little brand recognition but has had nothing but stellar reviews. Car #2 that is almost exactly $100,000 that is basically nothing but a rebranded Jeep Wrangler but with the Gucci logo on it, so a $29,000 car but they are asking for an extra $71,000 that is one of the top 10 least reliable cars of 2021. Also the car isn't as fast and doesn't have all the features you really want and gets worse gas mileage. But then again maybe they run a flashy ad campaign and your favorite music artist drives one because they gave them a free car for advertising purposes.\n\nSo how big of a sucker are you and how shallow can you be? Sure some people will think you are cool for buying that Gucci car but some people will also think you are fucking stupid. The people that think you are cool for buying the Gucci car will be the shallow, foolish and or stupid ones by the way.", ">It isn't the plain shirt itself that is the gaudy\n\nThank you very much, have yourself a great day." ]

I actually have some great friends to this very day that I first met on there like almost 20 years ago now.", "When they meet he doesn't even know who he is. \n\nWe do get a sideways explanation of how he escaped in the first episode of season 2. Cobb Vanth explains that the Krayt dragon has eaten the Saarlac. Then later we see Boba Fett. I assumed he'd escaped when the Saarlac was attacked.", "Trailer looks cool and I'm like 99 percent sure I'm going to enjoy the series, can't wait", "If we use the near 35 years if lore that was written before Disney decided to shit on starwars he has quite a bit written about him", "Your forgetting Vader knows who he is... He knows he's a unaltered clone with the full talents of jango. Also per the books he doesn't take pleasure in bounty hunting it's just a job and he takes pleasure in his reputation.", "Read the books..", "The amount of people who act like any of this is new is amazing... Read the books and play the games people... Just because Disney said 35+ years of books, games, comics etc don't count doesn't mean they don't... If anything the Disney stuff is the non cannon stuff.", "Bro, I don't got that kinda time to dedicate to Star Wars, I saw the OT, the rest sucked so bad I forgot them. Everything about the prequels was cringe, everything in the sequels was a sugar coated directionless garbage, they should have planned that shit out from begging to end and shot it all in one go like LOTR.", "I live in Nebraska. There is a small town named \"Cairo\" but they pronounce it \"Karo\". Sure, whatever but then they have all these egypt-themed street names. WTF you can't have it both ways assholes.", "I grew up with the OT and have seen all of the movies countless times. I never knew the name of that alien.

Takes from Jabba palace", "It bothers me a bit that they constantly show his face in this trailer (since this goes original Mandalorian culture) and that his face doesn't look like it was dipped in sarlacc stomach acid for a prolonged time.\n\nI guess this can all be explained in the series though (Boba essentially quitting the Mandalorian lifestyle and maybe plastic surgery).", "Inb4 the sentiment changes to this being the worst movie ever made in the history of cinema", "Is it bad to say that I think Boba's costume just looks straight out bad. No offense to the actor, but he's hardly in his physical prime and the costume makes him look fat. The actual 'cuirass' part of the armor barely covers his chest, like it was made one or two sizes too small for him, and the rest of it is just a black cloak over some plain clothes.\n\nCompare that to the original armor, which while very much a product of the time had a lot more going on. There are a lot of different elements making it up, while this one looks like a cheap halloween costume.\n\nIt was especially noticeable in Mandalorian where they have Boba and Mando side by side, and the Mando armor actually looks really good and more like a real set of armor compared to Boba's little vest.\n\nEdit: As an example, [here with mando](https://cdn.cnn.com/cnnnext/dam/assets/201221085449-the-book-of-boba-fett-the-mandalorian-super-tease.jpg) and [here alone](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/60/61/3b/60613bbe3f2dd59b0592ef8356284093.jpg). Other than the helmet this looks like a bad cosplay you'd see at a convention.", "It’s a show about Boba Fett sitting in a chair making deals, of course it’s going to suck.\n\nI think we’re finding the storytelling limits of Volume with this one.", "Rogue One's grittiness lasted until the end of the male protagonist's introduction where he shoots his source. From them on it's all pretty standard PG writing, even the characters being killed off happened in the most Hollywood style 'noble sacrifice' you could imagine. \n\nHad the guy shot the girls father dead, and then maybe even lied about it, I'd believe the film was gritty. If it didn't include a rousing speech about saving the galaxy and good triumphing over evil, I might believe it. If it didn't have the characters hug it out as they fade away with quick painless deaths I might believe it.\n\nThe movie wants to pretend to be gritty but it really isn't, the death of Bambi's mother is darker than anything in Rogue One.", ">(since this goes against original Mandalorian culture)\n\nIt does not, it never has, and it never will. You very clearly only know Mandalorians from the recent TV show, and even *that* showed the rule isnt what you think it is in season 2. \n\nWith all due respect, maybe learn a bit more about something before you start complaining about it", "And yet, he is downvoted.", "I haven’t seen LDR but if it is anywhere close to the original Heavy Metal, that’s a very high standard to set for animated anthologies.", "I stand corrected. In truth I have only seen part of the first season.\n\nIt still bothers me though. A large part of how I perceived Boba Fett in the original Trilogy is based on him always wearing his helmet. Just as it is for Darth Vader.\n\nUnmasking Vader had a narrative purpose, which I hope they also have for unmasking Boba Fett.", "oh 3 downvotes, poor guy :(", "It is a high standard for anthology if animation. But I also look at the Animatrix which is fucking great and tells amazing stories.\n\nLike I said the visions just didn't do that much for me. I watched them all and was just meh with it. I like the idea of giving other people free reign with the star wars IP because it has gotten kind of stale with the new trilogy and the ehh side movies (solo and rogue one).", "I mean what do you mean time... It's not hard to read a book or play a game... Or go to a wiki for 5 min", "I read many of the books in the past. The thing is, media needs to be able to stand and be critiqued on its own. You can't but out a multi-million dollar TV show and tell the fanbase that they have to read old non-canon books to understand the character growth that happened off screen. That's lazy and we both know only about 1% of viewers will even consider doing that.", "Speak freely as long as you cook the man some fucking eggs!", "Lol whut?", "For now I hold trust in Filoni. His love of Star Wars is as deep as mine. I am kind of taken aback by Fett now wanting to be honorable but not against it in the slightest especially if this show explores how it might be difficult for him or not a zero-sum game. He's going to have to pay, in his own way, for such a change.\n\nI kinda smiled when he talks about incorporation in this because I freshly completed reading the Legends books ; Tales of the Bounty Hunters. In that book series he essentially exploits and laughs at the idea of a Bounty Hunter Guild where people incorporate so this is going to be interesting seeing them sort of reverse it.", "I still feel silly for being excited to see Boba Fetts face and it turned out to just beTemuera Morrison. I remember thinking, that makes sense, not sure what I was expecting.", "Nobody knows who that character is", "Honestly, after watching the New Dune I can't even hardly look at new Star Wars stuff any more.", "The thing about The Mandalorian is that even if you've somehow never heard of Star Wars, \"hired gun has a change of heart when he sees the baby\" is a clearly enough defined premise that you could still enjoy the show. \n\nMaybe it's just the way the trailer is edited, but I don't really see a premise here, just a general setting of \"mafia but aliens\". I don't see any reason for a person who doesn't care about fan service and references, etc to watch this.... it looks visually impressive and kind of boring, like most of Star Wars.", "I might get Disney plus for this alone", "I mean are you really telling them... 9/10 starwars fans have already read this stuff over and over..", "Hey can you fuck right off? Thanks", "14 hours or my day is dedicated to getting to work and working... I'm a slave...", "But if you *are* going to suck ass... please do it in the privacy of your home.", "Wow that was bad.", "You think that 90% if people who are Star Wars fans have read all the old books? I think that's a gigantic exaggeration.", "You did get an explanation. Watch season 2 episode 1 and listen to what Cobb Vanth says about the Saarlac", "I meant, it counters your argument.", "yea most of reddit saw his comment you’re right", "Over here! 😠👇", "I'm telling you, dude. And toy story 3 was INCREDIBLE.", "yes. its a spin off / sequel", "just watch the Mandalorian series. its all you need. set in the time period after Return of the Jedi.", "I see it as the progression of a ruthless killer who was humbled by experience and is looking to ehat he perceives as more efficient or better methods. A new code, a new vision for the future. I have no doubts he will be ruthless but many great criminal empires have been ruled with fairness that punished brutally for breaking those rules. I hope thats what we see.", "They're going to make Boba a good guy. I kinda miss the ol' good vs bad stuff. Now everyone has to be complicated and misunderstood.", "Powerful female leads have been done well many times. Hire better writers and create better stories. There is nothing intrinsic about the genders that means the story will be bad.", "Fans want a Fett story what are you yammering about. People have always wanted it. Fett and the bouty hunter world is a way to branch into other dtories and worlds. Mandolorian did that as well, through the show you explored new places and peoples. Subtle details about the universe that people had never seen. Creating new stories with zero attachment to anything that has come is hard to do.", "Escaping the Sarlacc pit is the least questionavle of all the ridiculous plot armor and plot errors in the SW universe.", "Legit never met someone who hasn't and I have a wide exposure to different people based on my work", "There's 24 in a day sir :)", "So you are saying I as a black man am a different species than you? Oh okay then ...", "italian has several dialects and it was only after world war two that most italians spoke \"standard\" italian as their primary language. So these jersey italians are speaking (a slightly evolved form of) one of those dialects, but the actual Italians (and by that i mean ones in Italy) had coalesced around standard italian in the meantime.", "Nerf-Herder" ]

Gratuitously profitable.", "Lol the side look Ming-Na Wen gives him when they play the \"I'll rule with respect\" line. That had to be intentional.", "Yup, it’s like the assassins creed or far cry of tv/movies now.", "The streaming / release date is December 29th for those who can't watch the video.", "That's my bet. In the teaser, he was absolutely corpulent. Wouldn't surprise me if the only thing he learned as a toady for Jabba was how to luxuriate in his own excess and keep the syndicate on autopilot.", "Yes it was!", "Hoping to see a Rancor", "I was personally hoping for an explanation as to how he got out of the Sarlacc pit and How the hell he lost his armor to begin with.", "Man, those guys with the batons and energy shields really remind me of the Espos from the Corporate Sector. That would be so neat if it were them.", "Maybe I'm just spoiled but the alien prosthetics makeup looks... low budget.

And in the setup shot for that, the Trandoshan in the foreground with his jaw just hanging open.\n\nI'll still watch it because it looks like an interesting story, but that's gonna bug me.", "I'm really looking forward to seeing Boba biul his own Empire from the ground up.", "Sadly, he was on Jabba's barge when it blowed up (they left Bib Fortuna back at the castle to answer the phone in case someone called while everyone was out partying at the Sarlacc pit)", "lol, shit. Maybe we'll get another character of his species somewhere in the background. I just want to hear that laugh again!", "In the old books, he basically blows up the Sarlacc with a thermal detonator, relying on his armor to save him, and another bounty hunter (Dengar, iirc) finds his near dead body in the resulting wreckage." ]

You can tell Andrew was impressed too by how much he plugged their Soundcloud.", "Did he rebrand All Gas No Brakes?", "That 15 year old kid at the end killed it.", "Why is everyone in the video so ugly?", "Yup. Here's what the Wiki says: \n\nOn March 9, 2021, Callaghan announced his departure from the show via his Instagram page, along with his crew consisting of Mosher and Gilbert-Katz. He cited contract issues by network Doing Things Media as the reason for his departure.\\[3\\]\\[better source needed\\] This later was clarified in a piece by The New York Times\\[4\\] as having been locked out of all social media accounts and promptly fired by Doing Things Media after Andrew had requested a pay raise and more creative control. Doing Things Media retains intellectual property ownership of All Gas No Brakes and made a post calling for international contributors to the channel shortly before Callaghan's dismissal. Callaghan has since returned on a new channel, dubbed Channel 5, retaining the same style and mannerisms as All Gas No Brakes.\\[5\\]", "Not exactly.

Like holy shit dude what are you doing exposing her to the stuff there.

It's been downhill from there and now I'm nodding along at family parties to the old people moaning about kids these days.", "Music festivals quite often have families there. People group up and stick to their own kind for the most part so it's not a huge deal.

Yes, but it's also meant to show a much more *extreme* modern sub-culture. \n\nI feel, on the whole, like I'm still at least semi-hip to current mainstream pop culture. \n\nI think I had an \"ok\" grasp on it going back a few years, but I feel as though I'm \"with it\" quite a bit more these days after Tik Tok got popular among other adults my age during the pandemic. \n\nI know, most of reddit hates Tik Tok, but 90% of my friends in their 30's and 40's have gotten on it since 2020. \n\nThings like that and other social media in general, make me feel a bit more in touch with the \"mainstream\" youth today, and a couple sub-groups. \n\n*At least* much more than adults were in previous generations.

Apparently there's an older definition and then the newer definition.\n\nOlder definition is that it was a rap about nothing - like random stuff and bragging about yourself and such. It didn't really have a topic it was focusing on.\n\nHowever for the last 20 or 30 years freestyle has become synonymous with improvisational rap. Where you rap whatever lyrics come to mind on the spot.\n\nThis disconnect in generational definition of the word has created multiple camps in the various rap communities, that will consider what is and isn't a freestyle very differently.\n\nEdit to add: Forgot to mention that an important part of the older definition of freestyle is the ability to match your flow to whatever beat you're presented with. So the two different definitions highlight different skills, flow vs lyrical improvisation.", "I would take my kid to that.

At least I think that's what was around their neck.", "I dunno, this reminded me of being a teenager way to much. I was into metal but concerts looked the exactly the same.

A man who said he would still go after legal states and he tried doing so. \n\nOr how about that southern state where they had record turn out for voting because legal weed was on the ballot. They voted yes for legal weed. Finally a southern state legalized it. Oh wait the republican governor of that state stepped in and said fuck what the people want. We ain’t allowing it. \n\nThen those same asshats will vote that same governor in because he loves Trump. You know a guy who is so pro weed he appointed Jeff sessions to head the DEA. You can’t say you want drugs legalized while you vote for politicians who are heavily against it. Y’all can get these people to bend over backwards because of Trump but have them take away the will of the people and dismiss their votes is cool with the GOP.\n\nEdit: downvote all you want but at least try to negate these facts.

Partly it's to do with morale shock and command and control as /u/Rosa_Rojacr said, but ultimately firing in coordination makes you more effective at killing the enemy, too.\n\nSay you have 500 Redcoats and 500 Bluecoats in a field fighting each other, and say the Bluecoats are firing at will as the Redcoats advance on them from 200 yards. If the Redcoats advance at a jog to 50 yards that'll take about 30 seconds. In practice shooting 2 balls per minute was pretty common, so they'd receive 500 shots from an average of 125 yards. Now the Redcoats return nearly the same number of shots but all from 50 yards - about three times the effect! This disparity would even out over time if the Redcoats stuck around to reload at 50 yards. But luckily for them they don't have to - they have bayonets to use.\n\nInfantry warfare at that time revolved around preventing this from happening at all costs, which is why only firing on command was so important. If you fired by file (left to right or right to left along the line) or by platoon (~50 man chunks of the line) then you'd always have a good amount of your men loaded and ready to deliver a volley at a critical distance if it became needed.

A couple things to keep in mind.\n\nWWI is the next most proximate war to the Civil War for the United States and we see some of the tactics in WW1 showcased towards the end of the Civil War. Lee, for example, dug in around Richmond in a way that would look very familiar to a WW1 solider. \n\nOne difference is in the ability to fall back. \n\nDuring WW1 we saw little movement in the trench lines. If the enemy captured a trench you could always fall back to another trench or re-entrench. Then you had a supply-line advantage in terms of recapturing your original position. This made it hard to move the front much and the whole war devolved into a stale-mate. The majority of the casualties in WWI were inflicted by artillery. Indirect fire was really the only effective way to get at an entrenched enemy. \n\nBut in the Civil War, the loss of an entrenched position would force you to fall back and regroup without the benefit of the high volumes of fire that a WW1 military unit could count on from just a few riflemen or a machine gun. Thus RE-ENTRENCHING was very difficult and a displaced force was likely to be ridden down and killed by cavalry.\n\nThat means two things. First, unless you have the advantage of knowing where your enemy needs to be in advance, you're unlikely to have the luxury of creating an entrenched position. Second, your enemy has a strong incentive to get you out of that entrenched position since, once you're out, you'll both be in the open. \n\nWithout sophisticated artillery like we saw in WW1, the only real hope of dislodging a dug in enemy is an infantry charge so that's what they used. Gettysburg is a great example of this. The Union dug in on Cemetery Ridge and Lee hoped to dislodge them with an infantry charge. In true WW1 style, that charge was preceded by an artillery bombardment but a lot of historians think that Lee's artillery shells had low-quality fuses and probably detonated well behind the Union lines rather than in the air over them. As a result, the bombardment was ineffective and Lee's army suffered the consequences in Picket's Charge. \n\nGiven all of that, the tactics in the Civil War were fundamentally rational if gruesome.", "Same with the USSR", "Gravity has remained a constant ....thus far. Great answer buddy.", "Do you remember the loss rate of tactical aircraft between 1990 and 2003? The A-10 was the \"winner\" by a mile.

They fully expected Warthog squadrons to get decimated in that scenario, the goal was to buy time to allow NATO forces to get dug in along the axis of the oncoming assault. \n\nThey can (and did) fix the lack of precision capability with the C model upgrades so it can sit up high safe above light AAA and MANPAD threats but they can't fix the speed.\n\nThe A-10 was my absolute favorite airplane as a kid growing up but the reality is that it was an interesting \"hack\" to address a problem (Soviet armored rush tactics) and it's not the perfect CAS machine it's made out to be.", "Same thing happened at the beginning of ww2 in France. \n\nTechnology had just advanced that it took them by surprise. \n\nThey where expecting a similar trench warfare as the ww1.

The people in those deep red states whose votes actually matter in whether we can make progress dealing with this crisis, they don't care about what happens to some third world country. They don't care about biodiversity, or ocean acidification, or famines, and they especially do not care if California is on fire year-round. Talking about any of that is a waste of breath.\n\nYou know what they do care about, though? If things continue the way they are, there is going to be a mass-migration that will dwarf any migration in human history by orders of magnitude. And all those people whose countries have become unlivable? They're gonna be coming *here,* and no amount of border wall, ICE, or even sending the military to the border is going to be able to stop them. All those brown people they want so desperately to keep out, they will be in every town and on every street and there's nothing anyone can do about it. It's not even correct to frame it as a migration; it'll be a resettlement. \n\nThat's two degrees warming. Three degrees, and no country on Earth will be recognizable. Demographic shifts are going to be nothing short of biblical.\n\nTHAT'S how this crisis needs to be framed for flyover country. The way to stop the mass resettlement is by curbing our carbon emissions **RIGHT FUCKING NOW** while there's still time. Leverage their xenophobia and racism for something good for a change. If even the reddest redneck can get behind renewable energy so long as it keeps his little world as white bread as they like it, that's a win in my book.", "Guy dancing with a pumpkin on his head? 34,000 upvotes and 25+ awards, 1000 comments.\n\nAn incredibly important speech about climate change?

In which case, you get them to change by passing laws. You want to screw over the oil companies, or the Saudi state, half of all oil demand is in road transport, pass EV mandates. You want to screw over the coal barons, put in place a carbon tax on electricity production. Or the electricity utilities, pass strict efficiency standards. The natural gas companies, pass strong building mandates for insulation and requirements for heat pumps.

That also means that poor people who can't afford new cars aren't paying the cost without having being able to switch, they'll be buying in 5-10 years the EVs sold today. This is already happening in Europe and China. In Norway 80% of vehicles are EVs, in Europe as a whole and China it's about 1 in 5 new vehicles, they're already cheaper to run if you drive a lot, and coming down in cost quickly. No one is suggesting scrapping the existing fleet, just letting it turn over in the same way it always does.\n\n> the only way this isnt true is if a switch is made to some alternative technology like hydrogen fuel cells\n\nYou're just wrong about that, EVs are vastly more efficient than Hydrogen:\n\nhttps://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/OrLRA/s1/efficiency-compared-battery-electric-73-hydrogen-22-ice-13.jpg\n\nThere's an energy cost in producing the battery, but it's a small percentage of the lifetime emissions of a car.

EV batteries are about 400-800V, 180kV is about what you get on massive pylons in the national electricity grid! But yeah you're right that massive batteries for the F-150 batteries are not really a good thing, but they're still better than the same stupidly large vehicle burning 15 mpg for an entire vehicle life. Producing 180kWh of batteries and then getting the electricity from the grid which is efficient for fossil fuels, and with a lot of low carbon electricity from solar, wind, hydro, or nuclear (30-60% depending on which developed world country you're looking at), is far better than burning 10,000 gallons of petroleum, for local pollution and for carbon.", "God that was amazing.

I think this is where government can play a crucial role: providing economic incentives for businesses that drive a green energy economy and taxing those that are a) the most damaging and b) refuse to adapt once given time to do so.

[ "Veritasium", "This is a fascinating and really well made video. I haven't taken math classes or even used much higher level math in over a decade, yet this immediately brought back these concepts (like the quadratic) in a way that made sense. \n\nI won't pretend to 100% understand everything explained here, but it did make me appreciate my education and reinvigorate some of that passion in math I had at one point. I'm not a math guy, and was not very good at physics and physical chemistry. I was one of those weirdos that liked Orgo more than Phys Chem. I don't use that kind of math in any part of my day-to-day and probably won't ever, but it's awesome to see these kind of videos that bring me back to when I was fascinated by it.\n\nI love how the internet has made this kind of education available to all, and really hope it inspires the new generation (or at least helps them to understand it a bit better and not get so frustrated with their classes/homework). Really wish this kind of thing was around when I was in High School and undergrad.", "Having a hard time understanding the complex numbers graph\n\nGreat video!" ]

[ "Captain Kirk is climbing a mountain. Why is he climbing a mountain?", "Because it’s there.", "For those that can't watch a vid rn Shatner basically says he doesn't even know George Takei or what he is mad about. They were 2 actors on the same show and those were the only experiences they shared. There were a load of other actors and other things and scripts to read and Shatner didn't feel obligated to chase Takei around for friendship and it seems Takei felt slighted and said some things about Shatner that Shatner feels were unfair or unwarranted or character damaging but he wants to take the high road and just not say anything shitty about someone he doesn't even really know. The end.", "If I worked with someone on and off over 30 years i'd be pretty pissed off if they didn't properly acknowledge me. I'd at least attempt to find out who they are, i'm with Takei he deserves to be treated a little more than just some guy. \n\n\n Shatner really needs to phone him up and say \"Would you like to come round and talk? You know, get to know each other? We really should as we've known of each others existence for almost 60 years.\"", "Given that almost every other cast member from Star Trek also hated Shatner and considered him an oafish, arrogant asshole, and that even former friend and all around nice guy Leonard Nimoy stopped speaking to him before he died, I'm going to go out on a limb and say Shatner is full of it with his \"Who, me? I just don't undersand!\" act.", "'I hate you!'\n\n\"Who are you?'", "Yep, this is classic narcissism. \"I'm sorry, I was so busy being important that I didn't know you existed. Why would you embarrass yourself by inviting Captain Kirk to your wedding, HOW DARE YOU!\"\n\n[EDIT] I think I just learned a very important lesson from Will Wheaton on the subject of being the bigger man, googled the subject and here's his story. Bottom line, Shatner can be an insufferable prat but I don't think he's really intentionally malevolent, as narcissists go I'd describe him as \"mostly harmless.\" http://wilwheaton.net/2021/03/the-william-fucking-shatner-story/", "its called gaslighting.", "The canary in the coal mine is him stating that he'd be upset if one person in the audience didn't like him because of something George said. Why would anyone care that deeply about what some random stranger thinks of you?", "Oof. Nice catch. I don't think Shatner is a \"bad\" guy. But he doesn't seem like a good friend. \n\nTo my knowledge everyone from the TNG cast remain friends, or at least friendly. .\n\nOr even less.... They don't publicly smear and criticize each other.\n\n\n\"I worked with this man for a period of over 50 years and barely know him!\" is not the argument Shatner thinks it is against the claim that he is a narcissist.", "You know, my takeaway from reading that wasn't so much that Shatner is a dick, but that Brent Spiner, Jonathan Frakes, and Michael Dorn are pretty cool dudes.", "It would make my life if I could join the TNG cast for dinner. Seth Macfarlane got to do that, not sure who was there but any combination of would be stelar!", "I just assumed him and Takei were both arrogant assholes lol Takei taking shots at him after he went to space was just a reminder of the two grumpy old guys.", "> Leonard Nimoy stopped speaking to him before he died\n\nI think they buried the hatchet just before, didn't they?\n\nAs for Takei I don't know if Shatner was one of the people involved, but Takei's sexuality was an open secret on the TOS and I remember hearing that some cast and crew made remarks.", "The same type of people who edit comments to stuff along the lines of \"I don't understand the downvotes\"", "George has been a bitter shrew in regards to Shatner and Star Trek for a long time, he comes off as just a hateful old man these days", "While I'm probably guilty of misusing the word myself in the just the last half hour, I feel the need to point out that the overuse of \"gaslighting\" has really watered down its meaning in a way that harms its genuine victims. Gaslighting is *prolonged* manipulation and deception. Quoting the current wikipedia page on this with emphasis mine, it is a \"false narrative that leads another person or a group of people **to doubt their own perceptions** and **become disoriented or distressed**\". If Shatner spent months or years subjecting Takei to systematic manipulation and emotional abuse, causing Takei to doubt his own memories and experiences, THAT would be gaslighting. This? Call it lying. Call it dissembling. Call it sophistry. But don't call it long term emotional abuse that results in causing its victims to question their own ability to perceive reality. I see so many people behaving as though they are genuinely the bonafide victims of \"gaslighting\" from \"trolls\" any time someone *disagrees with them on the internet,* and they act as if that is somehow worse than if they'd *actually* been molested by a Catholic priest. It diminishes real victims of abuse, and turns every other molehill into Mount Karen.\n\nP.S. Sometimes you're not depressed, you're just temporarily sad.\n\nP.P.S. Fuck Shatner, but fuck Takei, too. They're both full of themselves.", "If it's any help, Bill and Leonard DID reconcile again before Nimoy died which makes me feel good.", "Perfect example. Shatner even said \"he didn't know why\" Nemoy stopped talking to him. \n\nShatner sends off such narcissistic vibes that anyone who's known a narcissist can detect it off the bat. \n\nHe sounds just like my mother in law, who takes pride in the fact that she can count the number of times she's said \"sorry\" on her fingers. He sounds disgustingly similar to certain politicians. By the account of anyone who's ever worked with him, he's the kind of guy who can't take criticism and drinks in praise like a drug.\n\nI don't even mean to blame him. Maybe his dad was an asshole and he didn't feel loved as a kid. But for the last 60 years it's clear he's been a black hole for adoration.", "No it isn't", "Uh, because he's an actor and his PR will directly affect his job prospects? Of course he'd give a shit if someone is badmouthing him when it can affect his relationship with his fans and his future job prospects. \n\nWalter Koenig did an interview a while back where he was asked his relationship with his costars. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8mpRlAb2xRw\n\nHe wasn't a fan of Shatner, but Shatner wasn't overtly rude or anything. He just hung out with the main cast and didn't interact much with the rest of the crew. \n\nTakei on the other hand was a major fucking asshole that got mad at Walter when he took over some of his lines when Takei was stuck on a project (The Green Berets) that ran six weeks over time." ]

These are kids out in public excited for people to see their costume and going door to door to get candy. Those who think this increases bullying are out of touch with school environments these days. Bullying will always occur, from school age to adulthood. It's best to learn to identify a bully and shut it down than it is to isolate and hide people from it.

I think it's morally wrong, if that wasn't already clear.", "And I see nothing morally wrong with it, there is no harm because in the US there is no expectation of privacy when in a public place.", "Again, it’s normalized so that’s probably why you don’t find anything strange with it. \n\nBut, these are still photos of minors that have been put on social media for the amusement of others.

But this is super dope.", "Can anyone explain how this works?\n\nIt says tune to X radio station. Which I assume the owner doesn't have the ability to know ahead of time what songs will be played next.\n\nSo on the fly, the system of lights need to respond to the different aspects of the music. In the video the pumpkin for example is miming the vocals. Is individual instruments and vocals being transmitted separately over the radio and then compiled all at once?", "People that have money spending it is actually good for the economy rather than sitting on it. Also pretty sure this guy has had these same lights for a while.", "Short range fm transmitter you can set to whatever channel you want. Plug in your audio source (computer output) and trigger the lights using a dedicated program and hardware controller. They’ve programmed it for specific songs so it’s not just listening to a local station.

Puts my decorations to shame that's for sure!!! \nBet its a big electric bill though", "I have a house like this in my area and it only goes until 9pm. They accept donations for the local food bank. The traffic honestly isnt too bad as most people only stop by for one song and leave.", "That's a cool idea to have foodbank donations there!", "I agree completely.\n\nThat's just incongruent with how much complaining I hear coming from that side.\n\nThings can't be too horrible if people have the disposable income for stuff like this.", "They have their own little radio transmitter, so they just have that frequency play whatever they want. So they control the music, and the light is pre-programmed to specific songs.", "We have one in our neighborhood. It doesn't cause any issues other than the neighbors complaining about how it COULD be a problem if....", "Oh true I didn’t see that sign, good call. I wonder how it works when more than 1 car is there", "I agree! It's so wholesome.

They’ve done it for years.", "They are all LED pixels so they use a lot less than you would think. I see this and think of the countless hours the owner spent creating the sequence. Each individual light was programmed for each second of the song. Its a very tedious process.\n\nAlso, to be this far in they no doubt also have awesome Christmas sequences and displays.", "That's not what I was saying at all. The complaints are valid with the income distribution. My point was that rich people spending money can actually benefit the economy as a whole because that money is now liquid instead of stagnating. There's no reason the rich shouldn't be taxed more and no reason they should game the system to keep propping themselves up. CEO's have increased their pay exponentially while giving the actual workers zero.", "This is one house out of 330,000,000 people in the US. How hard is that to understand?", "Hours and hours and hours of programming.\n\nThe homeowner plans the layout of the lights well in advance and using special software (this looks like xLights for sure), creates a virtual layout of the lights overlayed onto a picture of his home. Then they create a new sequence file and import the audio. From there they go through the song and one element at a time, they drop in effects (premade but customizable) that matches each part of the song. \n\nSo they might spend a day or so just timing out the lip sync. Then work on the trees up front and the small individual elements like the pumpkins around the garage. Second by second, playing over and over and over again until they get something that looks right. Finally, you tie it all together with effects/movements that play over the whole light array. \n\nAnd then you spend 3-6 months building it.\n\nLastly, the sequence gets played back with the lighting data going to a series of E1.31 pixel controllers and the audio going to a low powered FM transmitter. There's some final tweaking that needs to happen to account for any lag or timing differences and you're done!\n\nIt's a great hobby and it's come a long way from when we used to use mechanical relays to click old style Christmas lights on and off.\n\nYou can check the software out at: https://xlights.org/", "This is cool!\n\nAlso forgot how much I liked this song.", "You can even power it all off a battery pack too these days.", "So of course, this is incredible and a hell of a feat. \n\nBut all I can say after watching this, as someone who only really listened to Waking the Fallen back in the day, what the fuck is going on with Avenged Sevenfold?", "mesmerizing", "…", "To be quick and dirty: After Waking the Fallen and debatably City of Evil (05), they went more streamline and radio friendly with Avenged Sevenfold (08) and Nightmare (10) (Which this song comes from). Both were huge successes and launched them into the top of the rock scene in the early 2010's. During the production of Nightmare, The Rev (Drums) past away from an accidental overdose of prescribed drugs. With the Rev went his unique ability of music creation. Since then, Hail to the King (13) and The Stage (16) have been released. Hail to the King was an omage to the metal bands of their youth, and had moderate success. The Stage was more of a conceptual operatic prog-rock album that most do not like. There is another album in production now, but the band has become a bit of a has been with their last two albums being not as well liked.", "Extravagant Halloween decorations are very common in the USA. Home decorations are for most holidays, even more so during Christmas.\n\nThis is not something the rest of the world shares to the same extent.\n\nWhen econimies struggle, luxuries usually take the first hit. I'm simply remarking that it's interesting that things like this are a financial priority.", "You have some misconceptions about the US. Extravagant halloween decorations aren't really that common at all, especially like the one posted in this thread. Also, your premise that Americans believe the economy is in shambles is misguided. We have a labor shortage in some sectors and temporary supply chain issues but the economy is not bad at all.", "Incredible, thank you for taking the time to type all of this out. I fell off around City of Evil, you’ve completely caught me up. Who needs Wikipedia?", "The singing pumpkins in these always make me smile.", "There was also some interesting drama following the Rev passing away that may be a fun fact. Avenged Sevenfold (shorthand: A7X) had a tour for Nightmare which they asked Mike Portnoy to join them for as their drummer. \n\nPortnoy who was the drummer for Dream Theater, another massive rock band in its own right, decided to quit his band to join A7X after the tour concluded. A7X decided they didn't want to appear to have caused the rift so they declined to let him join, and Dream Theater found a replacement on their own.", "Damn, what a clusterfuck.

Rogan was lumped in with the morons rushing to Tractor Supply to stock up because it was a hot topic that week and he put a target on his back by going online to praise its effectiveness.\n\nShould CNN be sued for lying? Yeah. Hold them accountable. Should Joe Rogan be mocked for promoting unfounded miracle cures to a virus that's killed millions? Abso-fucking-lutely. The point I was making is that he's splitting hairs because people are laughing at his stupidity*.* If people view him as the charlatan he is, fewer people will buy his gas station brain pills and possibly lose sponsors.

It is hosted by a comedian and the panel consist of people who works in advertising.\n\nThat ad was from a segment called the Pitch, which pits two ad agencies against each other on really dumb ideas.

And that is his appeal, he represents the layman and wants to get to the bottom of each subject. Subjects that he literally has 0 clue about.\n\nThis sounds endearing until you realize that he is a *complete blank slate, to a fault.* So yes, he learns a tonne about physics when a physics guy is on there, but he also gets completely brainwashed by 'Q' when they're on there.\n\nHe's so far into this shtick that all the things he accepts completely just all contradict one another. So then he starts trying to make sense of it all. And that's his personality. On one hand, he learned about DMT, and he believes in a human spirit. But on the other, he also knows the universe doesn't support entities like spirits. But he believes both 100%. And his laughable personality is a result of all this. He just takes *everything* literally.\n\nHe is so impressionable that he has basically allowed all the propaganda he's fed just become part of his identity.

The ability to entertain an idea without adopting it is gifted by a good education, which is something far too many people lack. Some of those people watch Joe Rogan. But if your solution to this problem would be to choke and control the information shown to people you deem as not having this ability, you might as well just take away their right to vote now as you have already given up on them as rational agents.\n\nJoe is popular because he was, by far, the best podcast host available. He is still among the best, although more talented people have started podcasts recently (largely encouraged by Joe's success tbh) and his ego has definitely grown way too big because of his success and he inserts his own opinion more and more often and more and more assuredly. Inserting his own opinion is a big no-no for a good interview host, and ironically people like you decry this and then turn around and say an interview host should insert their own opinion in the form of calling people out. (More accurately I guess you think interview hosts should insert YOUR opinion.)\n\nPeople, when parroting what you are saying, often cite the Alex Jones episode. I personally think that is one of the best examples of great interviewing in recent history. I personally think that any rational person watching that came away with the impression that Alex Jones is unhinged and unethical. Joe is agreeable enough that both Bernie Sanders and Alex Jones agree to come on his show and have long-form conversations, which is much much more valuable than whatever sound bites/curated shit they put out on their own platforms. Even if some fringe idiots saw Jones on Rogan and thought \"wow he seems cool,\" most did not. And Joe did, imo, the perfect amount of pushback. Questions like \"do you think your alcoholism causes you to sometimes say unwise things?\" is not a softball question, it's incredibly loaded and would normally be way out of line, but it was completely reasonable in the conversation, and getting people to not immediately clam up and leave when questions like that are asked (and there were more of that type in the interview) is a talent and greatly valuable for listeners.", "Would you mind linking a podcast where he does this?

Its commonly used as an anti-parasitic, however many anti-parasitics are known to have anti-viral properties. Its being used to fight covid in japan, are the japanese pushing far right conspiracies? The evidence that it can be used to treat covid is murky, but if you have a cheap generic drug that may help, does it not make sense to investigate its uses? Its common in poorer countries for people to take ivermectin once or twice a year to purge any parasites, so its use is fairly inconsequential. Overdoses can occur, but do we ban advil because people can irresponsibly overdose on it? Anyways back to joe. He got covid and immediately saw his doctor. He was given a big ol chemical cocktail which included ivermectin PRESCRIBED BY HIS DOCTOR. He beat covid in 4 days which may or may not be due to ivermectin, various vitamins, natural health, all of the above, or none of the above, doesn't matter. CNN, which is considered to be a trustworthy news source, falsely said that joe was taking horse dewormer medication. He was rightfully upset that they falsely and willingly lied about it. Calling ivermectin horse dewormer bc it can be used for that is like saying people on benzos are on dog medication. Joe had CNNs top doctor on his show, where he admitted that calling ivermectin horse dewormer is false, and they shouldn't have done it.

Does he dismiss or talk over guests or callers who don’t agree with his take on a given issue, or does he let them say their piece uninterrupted? And importantly, does he seem to actually consider the points of an argument he disagrees with? Is he *listening* to an opposing view and *understanding* what the opposing point is? If so, what’s his typical attitude when he’s considering those different viewpoints? \n\nIf you notice a difference between how Joe Rogan treats folks who already agree with him vs folks who don’t, you can test it further: Has his attitude or approach in those situations changed over time? If so, how has it changed? Did he engage sincerely with opposing views more often as his show got more popular, or less often? If the frequency has changed, what might account for that? For example, if you notice less conflict between his and his guests’ opinions over time, listen to the substance of the discussions and see if you think he’s become more *open* to engaging with people who have different viewpoints (resulting in less conflict during the discussion) or is he talking mainly to people who already agree with his own ideas (resulting in less conflict during the discussion)?\n\nIt’s not un-knowable.

So when you feel personally connected to a piece of art or a media source or a content creator, and all of a sudden it seems like everyone’s shitting on it/them, the best thing to do is take an honest look at the thing you like and see whether the criticism is valid or not.

But seeing his stupid shit over the years boiled my blood so much, I have muted the phrase '*joe rogan*' on twitter.\n* The real ***reason*** why I commented in this thread was because at the time that I first posted, I noticed a lot of the comments were along the lines of \"*Haha! Of course this is soooo obviously FAKE*\".\n* To be honest, to me, these comments felt pretty fucking anti-vaxx-y themselves (i.e. \"*OF COURSE, no government would \\*EVER\\* make an ad THIS MUCH PRO-VACCINE!*\"). That's why I felt the need to make the point that it could be a real ad in Australia... Personally, I felt that while they were laughing at Rogan, a lot of comments were still almost implying kinda 'anti-vaxx' sentiments themselves.\n* Also, remember there is no context in the post about exactly how Rogan reacted, other than he \"fell for it\". I had no idea about his rant/take/stupid fuckery until now. I don't follow his shit.\n* Maybe it was a stupid point to make, and you can say \"*obviously everyone dunking on Rogan is going to be pro-vaccine*\", but I have no fucking clue what ideology is gonna come out of \"freedom & liberty lovin' 'Merica\"...\n\n\\----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nAs far as that Bond post goes, if you read through mine and all the other comments, you'll see that I clarified that it was poor choice of wording on my part that I later corrected.\n\nNow, I don't expect anyone in this r/videos thread to read or care about the rest of this, but I'm gonna fully explain it here... Because if you felt the need to sift through my post history looking for dirty laundry, so will someone else in the future, so I got to defend myself to slander.\n\n**Summary**: It was someone's post on r/JamesBond celebrating the two lines of dialog that (only) *imply* that the character 'Q' is gay. (One line says \"I *have a date tonight*\", and another he say's \"***He's*** *gonna be here soon*\" - noting the masculine 'He').\n\nAt the time that I joined that thread, there was discourse split between:\n\n1. pro-LGBT people who loved the inclusion,\n2. pro-LGBT people who disliked it because it didn't go far enough!\n\nAt NO point was I *ever* referring to anti-LGBT people who disliked it because \"GAY BAD\". There was no-one arguing that point of view in the thread, and I **certainly** hadn't seen any online discourse like that (due to my left-wing gay social media echo chamber bubble).\n\nI think the folks in that subreddit misinterpreted me to being giving credence to hypothetical anti-LGBT arguments because of my use of \"*extreme on both sides*\" phrasing. (Which maybe because I'm not American, but I didn't immediately associate that with the rapist president talking about the neo-nazis).\n\nMy comments in the Bond thread where saying this:\n\n* Although the people who believed it didn't go far enough (group 2 above) have some valid points (i.e. One reason it's so subtle and only implied is obviously so markets like China, etc. can easily edit it out. Better representation would be to *actually explicitly show* the gay characters, maybe even a gay kiss...).\n* But while agreeing with that, I actually ENJOYED the subtle inclusion and was defending it!\n\nI'm a confidently bisexual man myself (as I'm sure you know from scanning my comment history), and I loved the inclusion of a queer Q. Quoting me directly in that thread, I said:\n\n>Don't let imperfect be the enemy of good. \n> \n>ANY positive LGBT representation is better than NO LGBT representation. \n> \n>All positive representation is good and a step forward, no matter how small! \n> \n>\\[It was\\] healthy casual normalisation of LGBT representation!\n\nHow the feck is that a \"thinly-veiled far right talking point\"?", "Pointing out someone elses stupidity makes you stupid now apparently.", "I'm no expert, but lions and chimpanzees don't share the same habitat, do they?\n\nEdit: and the Congo has only been around for 2 thousand years.\n\nHow does **anyone** believe this simp?!", "I just don't understand why you're bringing up people obviously YOU know but the rest of us have to google to find out who they are as an example of someone I'd be familiar with.", "[**https://www.reddit.com/r/lostgeneration/comments/qkk2fx/this\\_is\\_just\\_the\\_elites\\_trying\\_to\\_stoke\\_ill\\_will/hix7w95/?utm\\_source=reddit&utm\\_medium=web2x&context=3**](https://www.reddit.com/r/lostgeneration/comments/qkk2fx/this_is_just_the_elites_trying_to_stoke_ill_will/hix7w95/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)\n\nBeing a massive pothead discredited you, kept you from working in the mainstream media/political/government organizations.

We do know that both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are not effective in the long run, we know that they do pose some risk (it’s a small risk but it’s still a risk), and we do know that both vaccines do not protect people extremely effectively breakthrough cases occur on a very regular basis. We know that taking the vaccine dramatically increases your odds of symptoms and surviving the disease, so we should strongly advocate that people make the best choices.

While previously citing show logs during that 2009 discussion, Howard would make the claim he never made the “Get away, whores” comment. Instead, he would place the blame on Gary. However, a discussion that took place on September 22, 2004 would prove that statement to be false. Comedienne Bonnie McFarlane had stopped by the show and sat in for the news. She was once a writer for The Man Show when it was hosted by Rogan and Doug Stanhope. [AUDIO] While discussing Rogan, Howard would go on to say, “Joe hates women… Joe’s weird. I’ve gone to strip clubs with him and he’s like ‘get away from me, whore.’” Robin would continue the onslaught. “… Even when we were in Vegas together and there were stripper dancers, he was yelling all kinds of horrible things. I was like ‘these women aren’t doing anything to you. Why are you screaming at them?’” They would continue with allegations of Joe yelling at the Juggies, a nickname given to the Man Show dancers. Bonnie would go on to say Joe was the biggest supporter of the Juggies, often yelling at the director for his treatment of the females. However, he would usually follow that up with yelling of his own. \n\nAlso in one of Stanhope's books (*\"Digging up Mother\", or \"This is not Fame.\"*) you'll find a wonderful story about how he treated the \"Juggies\" (Hired hot girls) on the man show. They were fucking terrified of him, he'd fucking just scream at them for anything, fuck with them at every chance. \n\nApparently they had like an \"end of shoot party\" in their contracts, a budget for it and everything. Jimmy and Adam had taken them to some tropical resort thing the year previous. After trying to avoid it, and being asked repeatedly Joe Rogan finally HAD to set up a party. \n\nInstead of some island resort or cruise ship, he somehow got them all an all day ride on a literal garbage barge. \n\nHe tried to play it off as a bit. However he made comments like, (*paraphrasing*) \"*These entitled whores need to be put in their place, they should know WHAT they are. Fucking trash, they need a reminder.*\" \n\nSomehow asking about contractual obligations was entitlement, and these girls were little more than garbage in Rogan's eyes. \n\nSo instead of some big old fun party, like they were told; these girls showed up ready to head out and have some fun at sea, and instead got loaded on a fucking ship full of garbage and spent like 10 hours just riding it from one place to another. \n\nJoe always thought it was hilarious. Doug puts it up with \"girls gone wild\" as one of the worst things he's been a part of willingly. \n\nI flipped through the 2 books to have a better reference, cause I know it sounds insane, but I can't find it at a glance.

Those people exist in every fanbase and they are either literal children or have the maturity of a child.\n\n>What am I projecting and what hate have I been spouting? What behaviors do I have to grow out of?

The behavior you need to grow out of is the inability to self reflect. You're projecting your obsession on to me.\n\n>What is a ‘no you’ thing?\n\nSee above. Instead of making a substantive criticism of my comment, you just said \"nuh uh, you're the one who's obsessed\".\n\n>How can you be so hypocritical by telling me to grow up when you use such language as ‘losers’ and ‘clowns’ to hate on people in anger?\n\nCheck the first link again. \"I can think parasocial weirdos who bend over backwards to defend a guy who doesn’t even know they exist are losers **without hating those people**.\" At no point have I been angry about these people, I just think they need a productive hobby instead of spending time worshiping a media figure.

I bet if I had made the same joke about a group you didn't particularly care for you wouldn't be so offended by those jokes. That's seems a lot more hypocritical than calling someone a clown.

Everything we say is our opinion, that’s why we say it, everything you and me have said is our opinions, why are you obsessed with JRE fans? What’s the joke?

He's literally not even that good at keeping the conversation on track, he asks annoying stupid questions all the time hahaha.\n\nThere are other podcasts that don't encourage people to kill themselves and put their friends and family in danger.\n\n\"Wonderful\" - the fact you used this word to describe Joe Rogan tho hahaha. Hollly shit lmao.", ">There are other podcasts that don't encourage people to kill themselves and put their friends and family in danger.\n\n_>talks about how Joe spreads misinformation_\n\n_>literally spreads misinformation in your own comment_\n\nCongrats, you played yourself. Since Joe isn't that good, I'm sure we'll have another similarly formatted podcast become the most popular that you approve of. Some I can think of that are exactly like JRE gaining popularity that you'd probably disapprove of (which doesn't matter) would be Lex Fridman, Huberman's Lab, and Russel Brand. I'm sure they're saying something you'd classify as misinformation so I wouldn't bother watching them 😊\n\nMisinformation to you:\n\nAnyone: \"The vaccines have risks\"\n\nYou: \"aktually, the vaccines are relatively safe and the risks outweigh getting Covid and potentially dying or spreading it to a loved one. MISINFORMATION. YOURE LITERALLY KILLING PEOPLE.\"", "you have fucking BAD math if you think covid vaccines are anywhere near as dangerous as covid lol.\n\njoe rogan has probably killed people man. he tells people not to get vaccinated \"if this reason or that reason\". you know it, i know it. everyone knows it. its public information at this point. joe rogan will tell you if you ask him. he tells people not to get vaccinated, very publicly. he says dont bother if you are \"healthy.\" every single part of this is a total misunderstanding of not only Covid, but vaccines in general.\n\nthe god damn manufacturers of the vaccines will tell you the risks, they tell you when you go get the vaccine. something you would understand if you were vaccinated, right? nobody needs joe rogan to remind people there are \"risks.\" dont act like they arent extremely, extremely rare.\n\nboth you and joe rogan need some basic math skills. and i fucking mean, BASIC.\n\nEDIT: whats funny too is, you even talking about vaccines like this. where did you learn that??? joe rogan tell you not to get vaccinated and you believed him? lmao. that is really funny. \"OOH OOH AAH AAH AAH AAH\" - you", ">he tells people not to get vaccinated\n\nNah, he doesn't. you know it, i know it. everyone knows it. its public information at this point\n\n>he says dont bother if you are \"healthy.\"\n\nAh such a controversial thing to say, right, stating his opinion during conversations discussing the issue that if you're healthy you arent in an at risk group and so may not need to get the vaccine if you don't want to (especially if youve already been infected). Seems reasonable, people can make their own decisions 😊\n\n>both you and joe rogan need some basic math skills. and i fucking mean, BASIC.\n\nWhat at are you even rambling about \n\n>joe rogan tell you not to get vaccinated and you believed him? lmao. that is really funny.\n\nCringe.", "Again. His opinion is wrong and worthless as he isn't an expert. \n\nThe math skills thing? Look up the \"risks\" of the vaccine and compare them to covid lmao. Basic math.\n\nAnd ya, of course you say shit like \"cringe\" hahaha. You are basic enough to sit here defending Joe Rogan over and over again. \n\nYou are a pumpkin spice latte my dude hahaha.

Sorry homie", "Oh is the picture all i posted? That was more just to add a cherry on top of the \"TEXAS WENT RED! WOOO!\" clip which I think is pretty definitive proof that he's a conservative. Because hanging out with guys like Jordan Peterson and Lil Benny Boy over there is kind of indicative.\n\nNow you want to tell me that he's \"Libertarian\" I may agree, but that's because \"Libertarian\" is just \"Cool\" Conservative.\n\n>I think he might be against vaccine mandates, but I don't consider that to be a left/right issue, more of a authoritarian vs libertarian issue. \n\nThe dude is against vaccines never mind any mandates regarding them and guess what many countries have them, they aren't authoritarian dictatorships. And it SHOULDN'T be a left/right issue but it totally is in America.\n\nAnd it's not like I haven't listened to Joe, he's not some hidden unknown figure.

I hear it all the time\n\nHow are people going to gatekeep fucking sarcasm and try to say it's not valid without the /s? If you want to use /s, that's fine, but some of us find that the /s is the same as explaining the joke, and that it kills it out of the gate, so we decide that it's better to risk people not understanding it.\n\nWhy not just go 'oh, my bad. I missed the sarcasm'? Why try to dictate how somebody else delivers their joke?", "Your point is correct, but the opposite of what I said.", "You said 'I’ve never seen a misogynist who wasn’t a moron'\n\nVice versa to that would be 'I've never seen a moron who wasn't a misogynist'", "And I never said that all morons are misogynists.

[ "What a great video! I hadn't heard of this guy before but one of my complaints about debunks generally is that the videos frequently run so long. And I know that's one of the reasons why disinformation spreads so easily: 'Falsehood flies, and the Truth comes limping after it' (Johnathan Swift, 1710), but sometimes you just don't have the patience to watch a 1hr video debunking a 2min clip.\n\n10min video with no fluff, the presenter shows not only his results but details the exact methods he used to reach his conclusions, keeps it all very approachable. Excellent!", "This guy is the enemy of disclosure.", "This guy has all his receipts, no fluffing around.", "That was very good and clear", "As soon as he said they were flying west and the object flying east.. I figured yep - done. Its just a blimp or a ballon thats slowly floating up. It looks like its moving east because youre just seeing its 'movement' relative to the plane (heading west)\n\nEither way though I was wrong and as this guy explains (quite logically and with some great proof) that its just a plane. Shows how easily you can even think up even a rational logical argument and be completely wrong. The human mind is very flawed - what you see (or film with a shitty camera) can be very much based on what you \\*want\\* to see. And then reality doesnt have to agree at all, reality is just reality. \n\nOur perception of reality can be very poor. Occam's Razor. Etc", "For me the best part of the video is what he doesn't say unfortunately. He has proven there is a plane there. If anyone tries to continue to say it's a UFO they then need to explain where the other plane is. \nSecond, we have evidence that planes look like that with phone cameras. It now requires more evidence to suggest something looking similar is more than a commercial plane.\n\nPersonally I believe aliens exist and I want to believe they are watching us like scientists. But I prefer people like this proving videos wrong. I only want indisputable evidence of their existence so that we as a society can move from conspiracy theories to fact.", "Devils Advocate - But if it's unidentified and it's flying, doesnt that meet the descriptions of unidentified flying object? \n\nI think we confuse UFO to mean aliens and sophisticated technology. \n\nHowever to the person who was filming this, it was indeed an unidentified flying object.", "N-n-noooo, it's a UAP! Lue Elizondo saw the exact same thing during his remote viewing session the other week! Go watch his interview on Tucker! Mick West doesn't believe in UAPs, he's just a deboonker and a disinfo agent!\n\nBtw, Lue mentioned something big happening within the next 90 days! What could that be? I bet it's tHe dIsClOsUre!", "Your honor, objection!\n\nSure, but you have to take into account the apparent intentions of the people reporting the sighting to try to understand what is on their mind when they say UFO: the actual, maybe pedantic, versus the popular interpretation: ALIENS!!!!.\n\n​\n\nHere's the report: [https://www.latest-ufo-sightings.net/2021/11/tic-tac-ufo-filmed-from-a-plane-over-lake-michigan-17-oct-2021.html](https://www.latest-ufo-sightings.net/2021/11/tic-tac-ufo-filmed-from-a-plane-over-lake-michigan-17-oct-2021.html) \n\n\nNo need to scroll down at all, as the banner of the site is flying saucers with text saying \"Latest UFO sighting - UFO videos & news about extraterrestrials\".", "Should be required viewing by all the willingly deluded who were fantasizing over the pentagon \"UFO\" report.", "> Personally I believe aliens exist and I want to believe they are watching us like scientists. But I prefer people like this proving videos wrong. \n\nThis raises a question. If all the credible evidence in human existence says otherwise, why do you still believe in the myth?", "Except it is identified, rather comprehensively.", "You're not wrong, but it's bizarre. Conspiracy hoaxers will spend 12 hours a day being willingly deluded, and throw away years of their life on such pursuits of deliberate ignorance. So I'm not sure video length in and of itself is the reason why they're doing that to themselves.", "The myth that aliens exist or that they're watching us?", "Yes.", "Thank you for researching and taking time to find truth in the world", "I don’t understand what you’re trying to say here. Are you making fun of people for looking forward to a report that was in fact released?", "Have you followed the AATIP program and the subsequent report released to congress?", "Yes. It's willful ignorance on steroids.", "Broadly dismissive and closed-minded \"skeptics\" are just as bad as the easily-led paranoid conspiracy theorists.", "No I'm making serious criticism of the abundant ignorance and lack of critical thought.", "And ignorant false equivalence like yours is another example of proudful stupidity.", "How so? They are reporting that what they are seeing with their evidence raises enough questions that can’t be answered right now, that it need to be looked in to further. These guys have trillions of dollars worth of resources backing them up. So either they’re lying, or they have made the biggest fuck up in intelligence history", "Where is the ignorance and lack of critical thought in looking forward to a pentagon report?", "The difference is that one tends to make a lot of claims.", "Imo, someone in the business of being a sceptic is just as credible as someone in the business selling conspiracies.", "ehhh, I disagree... one has actual evidence on their side. \n\nBoth sides might be profiting off youtube videos, but only one of them can actually be correct about what's being presented in cases like these.\n\nThis video in particular makes a pretty solid case for it just being a plane, wouldn't you agree?", "The amount of time/energy people invest in deliberately misinforming themselves is hard to understand, for sure!\n\nI get that some of it is selection bias: cherry-picking resources that confirm their underlying worldview. Even understanding that though I struggle with the combination of extreme skepticism of anything the genuine experts in the field say, combined with blind trust in fringe figures/websites saying what they want to hear.\n\nYou'll constantly hear people who are skeptical of modern medicine talk about profit motives, which is certainly a valid concern...but then they turn around and consult unaccredited 'experts', buy ridiculously overpriced homeopathic 'medicines', untested herbal supplements, woo woo gewgaws, or use generic drugs off-label without blinking. Like there couldn't be a profit motive in selling grossly overpriced placebos and feel-good bunkum!", "That is because your opinion is quite narrow in scope and lacking the necessary understanding to appreciate the fundamental difference. Kind of like those same people who fall for conspiracies rather than learn what they are actually about etc.", "> that can’t be answered right now\n\nfalse. \n \n> that it need to be looked in to further. \n \nWhy? How? \n \n> These guys have trillions of dollars worth of resources backing them up. So either they’re lying, or they have made the biggest fuck up in intelligence history \n \nHere is your fallacy. Your \"trillions of dollars\" is just some guy reporting what he saw. There is no difference between a guy on a passenger plane and a guy in a military plane. \n \nThere is no fuck up. They just reported what the people saw. There is no implication that US military believes it's aliens or anything.", "Aksyually they identified it as an object so by definition it can't be unidentified. Hurrr durr, look at my autistic pedantry.", "At that point just about no one ever has any credibility considering the vast majority of people need to make a living off their skills.", "There are an estimated 200 billion trillion stars in the universe (at least). I don't think it's unreasonable to assume there is other forms of life other than on our own planet.\n\nWhether or not they're watching us is a different story though.", "You're making a lot of assumptions based on a comment that doesn't reflect any of my opinions on the subject in the video. I assume you're a Mick West fan, based on your retaliatory comment. You either didn't read the 2nd half of my comment, or chose to ignore it. Regardless, you painted the picture of me being a conspiracy nut and convinced yourself you know exactly where I stand. You, like many others today, lack the ability to have a constructive conversation prior to casting your judgement or tampering your knee-jerk emotions.", "You equated being rational and being irrational.", "I absolutely agree with his conclusion in this video and I've agreed with some of his other conclusions.\n\nMy issue is that he's made this 2nd career around solely being a skeptic. If you promote yourself as a skeptic, you're going to have a higher degree of confirmation bias. Therefore, I personally do not go out of my way to seek his opinion on topics.", "I did? Please explain.", "Eh? He found the location of the footage, and a plane which would be exactly where the UFO was in the footage. What else could it have been?", "Or they're not perfect, and want feedback. Yes they've got trillions of dollars of hardware, but it's not all being used all the time for everything.", "Another good one on related topic. Start at min 5.\nhttps://youtu.be/Hv-sbtCAz9Y?t=299", "Wait, so his only explanation for not seeing **wings** OR **a t-tail** is the phones resolution and the color of the plane? \n1) it looks like a very overcast day so I'm not convinced the glare of the plane is adding to its low resolution. \n2) the video is clear enough to make out background landscapes so well, he was able to find them in google? Also those background landscapes are thousands of feet FURTHER than the object? yet the plane is hit with such terrible resolution its morphed into a sphere but nothing else thousands of feet further away take on any deformation at all??? \n3) someone saw an airplane, video recorded it why? did they know this optical illusion would happen so they took the video to fake a ufo video? what would be the point? \n4) in all other blurry plane videos, I see some sort of emission from the plane which I see none of in this video. \n\n\nI am NOT saying this is a ufo at all. I'm just critiquing his method of debunking. Blindly believing this is NOT a ufo based on this loose video explanaiton is almost as bad as saying this IS a ufo for sure.", "That doesn't make any sense. Anyone can be in the business of selling conspiracies, you just need to echo other people, or invent unsubstantiated lies to support your arguments. Disproving something requires you to present a scientifically sound data, which is then more likely to be a model for how the thing really is. They are diametrically opposed in - the debunker is following a scientific method to whatever the logical conclusion may be, where as the conspiracy theorist is creating a conclusion first and then throwing out any evidence that does not support it.\n\nYou should change your opinion.", "In your opening comment. The only difference between the two is their degree of rationality.", "I think the incredibly unapproachable extremely long and densely packed conspiracy videos which never include sources for the information is actually a technique to keep the believers feeling superior about themselves and distrusting of non-believers.\n\nWhen somebody sends me one of those videos to watch, what's my reaction? Like most people, I'll get at most 5 to 10 minutes in before I realize I can't possibly chain together 2 hours of these logical conclusions when I have already disagreed with the opening premise and am already in disbelief about the absurdity of the information presented. I chuckle, shut it off, and can't believe somebody actually would watch that.\n\nBut then how does the person who sent me the video react when I tell them that? In their eyes, because I didn't watch the whole 2 hour video, I'm unwilling to examine their evidence and therefore I'm being naive.\n\nThe reality is that because the videos are presented this way, it's creates a massively lopsided burden on the skeptic to address literally anything with actual facts because if you even want to discuss facts you have to track them down yourself.", "You tend to get better at doing something, anything, the more you do it. His past experiences make him a better debunker. They do not necessarily increase his bias on the matter. The beauty of science is that bias does not matter - if you follow the data, the conclusion naturally emerges, regardless of who the scientist is or how many other things they may have been involved with in the past. In other words, this video would not be more or less convincing, if he had 100 more videos like it, or if this was his first.\n\nWith no offense intended, I think the only person with confirmation bias is you - as you are looking for reasons to disregard his videos and their conclusions. If someone is repeatedly wrong, that may be a good reason to avoid them, but if they are repeatedly right, why not seek their take on it?", ">I personally do not go out of my way to seek his **opinion** on topics.\n\nFinal comment - there are no opinions presented in this video.", "It comes down to this. I understand that low-res makes it look like a Tic Tac.\nBut then the real question is, what about the guy who took the low-res video? His eyes weren't low-res. So what he saw was a plane, right?\nSo he sees a plane with his own eyes, decides to get a quick video for whatever reason.... (I'll give him the benefit of doubt. Mostly because I don't want to believe that he got on the plane KNOWING another plane filmed with a cell phone at low res would look like this. EVEN THOUGH EVERYBODY KNOWS you have to take a high res video if you really want people to SEE SOMETHING. \nHonestly when was the last time you took a low-res video of anything for any reason?\nOk back to my question.....\nAfter taking the video he then notices that it looks like a Tic Tac?\nTHEN he decides to post the video saying Hey look I found a Tic Tac?\nI mean that's what we're dealing with here right?\nBecause if so, then the original poster of the video NEEDS to be called out.\nOtherwise, people are going to keep doing this.....", "Credibility has to be earned. You can be a credible anything, IF you are proven to be credible.\nSaying one is just as credible as the other doesn't exactly work.\nIn this case, the guy trying to sell the conspiracy seems to be less credible in my opinion.\nThe way I see it is the video may be low res, but the guy shooting the video has high res EYES.\nSo what he saw as he was shooting the video looked like a plane to HIM but a tic tac to US.\nThe debunkers credibility went up with me when he not only told us WHAT he thinks happened but also WHY he thinks that and HOW he came to that conclusion and shared the tools he used to figure it out.\nIt seems pretty clear, the person who tried to deceive us in this case has lost credibility while the debunker has become more credible in my opinion.\nAnd you can have your own opinion about who is credible to you and that can be different than the way I see it.", "So a guy is repeatably demonstrably good at what he is doing and because of that you DON'T want to seek his opinion about things he credibly knows something about because he promotes the thing hes good at which is why you heard about him to begin with?\nOk, that's different.\nSo then you would rather seek the opinion of someone who is not a skeptic to tell you whether or not you should be skeptical?\nI mean, if you want to know whether or not someone is trying to pull a fast one on you, you don't want a gullible person who says they aren't skeptical to give you their opinion do you?", "I think that's one of those things that sounds good and follows the same syntax as many faux-wise-quotes. Sounds good but doesn't stand up to analytical thinking. \n\n​\n\nBusiness of being a skeptic means someone who makes $$ from not believing things? or lets make it more reasonable; someone who makes $$ from disproving or presenting another possibility. This is literally what scientists do, peer review is this. \n\n\nI think comparing it to someone who is the business of selling conspiracies, is someone who profits from saying or presenting circumstantial evidence to support the existence of the definition below:\n\n \n\"a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful. \n\n the action of plotting or conspiring.\"\n\nTo sum it up, one sells a possibility and the other debunks their possibility with giving a more likely scenario with more credible evidence, either could be right, but without the actual \"answer sheet\" we have to side with sound reasoning at the very least.", "I do both, i fall for or seek out conspiracy theories and love them; most satisfy or rationalize a \"fear\" people have. I then enjoy the idea of it existing and then if i believe too much or get \"sold\" i google the opposite or a question looking for why what I like to believe is not true.\n\n​\n\nIn the end, true or not, my question for theorists of all kinds is the same: \"whats your plan concerning this? what are you gonna do?\" Usually, nothing since the conspiracies are often fabricated to be larger than any system of checks and balances, one might as well just not bother to even \"discover\" them. \n\n\nEdit: i am sorry for trying to share my true opinions in hopes of dialogue :/ I am old and should feel bad.", "Two fold, first is religion that I won't share further. Second and more secular, that's a whole lot of emptiness for just us. Also, my actions aren't affected by this belief. I won't change any life choice nor do I spend any additional time, effort, money or thought than those who disbelieve.", "Viewing this tells you that with information, most people will come to a rational conclusion. The pentagon report is this hope for \"rational\" information since the belief has existed for a long time already. You can check all the URLs he gives and the pentagon report will have events from outside of the existence of the websites or data needed.", "The ignorance has nothing to do with \"looking forward to it\".

Definitely not because he wants even more free money. Bigelow leaked the videos a few years ago, in order to drum up more popular support for investigating the videos and getting more money for himself.

Capitalism actually lowers overall poverty eventually, which decreases population growth into the negative, and enables people to afford things like recycling.", "And does its damnedest to avoid monetizing externalities which is a main reason we are in this problem to begin with. If we had to pay the real cost of using carbon, we would use a lot less than it but dumping it into the air is free so we use more than we should.", "The world doesn't care about emissions per capita. If the US doubled in population right now but kept the same carbon emissions, the world would still be facing the same consequences.", "60 years too late.", "This would be great, but every single one of them took their private jets to the airport and then had a massive motorcade drive them to and from the assembly, just to hop back on another private jet again. \n\nThis message is good, but if you don’t practice what you preach it doesn’t matter. Maybe not for David here, but every single one of those politicians that showed up are just posturing to secure reelection. Until people (at least here in the west) adopt nuclear power as their primary avenue of producing electricity, nothing will be solved.", "Yeah it's far from optimal.

Nothing grows exponentially forever, there’s always some bigger constraint that eventually steps in. Those constraints for us are imposed by the limitations of our planet, and we’re beginning to run into them. \n\nDo I have a better suggestion? No, not really. But it’s important to first come to terms with the nature of the problem.", "The free market will solve climate change. Government will do what they do best - get in the way.", "How do i see all the speeches?", "Here’s an idea: stop electing leaders who are in their 70s", "Totally agree with you there!", "Lmao… wtf is that “article”?!\n\nLiterally “Biden closed eyes for 20 seconds during speeches, Twitter users complain”\n\nJesus people look for anything, and not to mention everyone here blindly jumping on board to complain about such a non-story\n\nLike you’re not going to hear me defend how old the guy is, he’s ancient to be president, but at a big conference in a time zone 6 hours ahead I can guarantee everyone here commenting would be the same", "Yeah you are right, we need to socially evolve to survive this century, but we wont..", "> Capitalism requires exponential growth\n\nGrowth, yes. Exponential growth, no. The economy is fine so long as we keep up with inflation, which is not exponential afaik.", "And then there's the 10s of thousands of people who have travelled hundreds or thousands of miles to protest/demonstrate/etc at COP26 saying travel is one of the biggest drivers of AGCC. Bit of a mixed message. And the carbon footprint of a charcoal sasquatch.", "The only tides that any of us will see turn will be because of unavoidable jet stream failure.", "This is an over used argument. Global warming is totally solvable, it just requires this bunch of numpties to action some decent ideas and then we can all take our private jets around (if only). We can still have our luxuries, we need to allow for them. Nobody wants a reduced standard of living and nobody will have if this is taken seriously.", "What does the 'audience' have to do with it? Do you think every one of the thousands of people who come across that specific comment are going to feel the same way you do about it?", "Jet lag is a thing.", "Eh, chalk it up to jet lag.", "Jet lag is a thing as well. Traveling halfway around the world takes a toll on anyone.", "++", "That would be Putin and Xi but go off, oh and Trump for pulling us out of the climate accords.", "What a horrible take. Capitalism enables, encourages and rewards greed at every level. Lowers overall poverty? We have the greatest wealth disparity in the history of our nation. What the actual fuck are you talking about?", "I heard about it on NPR this morning. That's the first article I could find about it.", "It aint the first time he's fell asleep tho. We should stop voting for old people imo.", "Keep telling yourself that your current senile leader is any better than the last one. Same shit.\n\nAs for Xi and Putin.. they arent there (at COP26) where the video is from and my comments are about that event.", "inflation is an exponential phenomenon because it represents the change in the value of money, and that decreases exponentially. The hint is the fact that it's expressed as a percent value which stays relatively constant. But the issue isn't a monetary one at all.\n\nThe reason capitalism requires exponential growth is that it's the only way to make investments worthwhile. If investments no longer provide proportional return then no one will bother to invest in new things and we'll stop developing. Obviously this is oversimplified but that's the core mechanism.", "Hence why they’re the biggest clowns. Clown ass.", "It would be worth it, if they were actually changing things. Solar and wind energy are only short term solutions to climate change. A vast majority of pollution comes from producing electricity. Nuclear power plants are expensive to build, yet require very little maintenance compared to a coal plant. Factor that in with the enormous amount of power it can produce and it pays itself off within a decade. Fuel rods can also be recharged eliminating the need to dump the waste underground. \n\nI think I said as much about David. I understand that he’s just there to speak, but politicians are supposed to enact change. We’ve known about climate change for the better part of 30 years. That’s plenty of time to pursue an effective strategy to mitigate our species effect on it. Instead we see politicians proposing taxes on miles driven and raising gas prices to artificially force people to move to EV’s (which aren’t a good long term solution). Politicians have a hard time existing when there isn’t a problem looming over the public’s head. That’s honestly why I believe that nuclear hasn’t been pushed as hard as I think it should be.\n\nTL;DR I think climate change has been turned into yet another political tool for re-election rather than the serious hurdle for us to overcome.", "I would think he falls asleep everyday.\n\nIt's foolish to think that their experience is not highly valuable", "\"Growth\", in terms of economics, is defined by being inflation adjusted so none of that is relevant. As long as we are keeping up with inflation, it isn't considered growth. Capitalism requires growth to keep up with investments and growing populations but it does not require *exponential* growht", "How stupid are you really? I was obviously commenting Biden being the biggest clown on the conference.", "That’s why I qualified my question by starting it with “if”. \n\nBut you are also trivializing many things that go into it. Thousands of jobs depend on fossil fuels and we can’t just say “send ‘em all to the wind farms and nuclear plants!” It doesn’t work that way. Millions of people would be living near those nuclear plants or waste storage facilities. I may agree that nuclear is ideal, but not everyone does, and elected officials represent *people* not ideals. \n\nIt’s also a global issue. Western African countries are not going to stop importing oil any time soon. Nor is India going to switch off its coal. They require these things if they are to continue to modernize and industrialize unless some outside forces step in to aid them. And how does that get done? Though geopolitical conferences and the meetings held therein and thereafter. \n\nI’m not saying it’s a perfect system. Wouldn’t it be great if all the world leaders were super heroes that didn’t need to get re-elected or face changing socio-political climates at home and on the global scale. But we don’t have benevolent god-kings, we have a rich elected or appointed class. And right now, that’s all we’ve got to rely on to make changes.", "LOL, what an smallminded post. Go read a book.", ">Capitalism enables, encourages and rewards greed at every level.\n\nWhat other system that has been used, does this not apply to? Then, in which of those cases did it not end in mass starvation and murder? \n\n\n>We have the greatest wealth disparity in the history of our nation.\n\nNot sure what nation you're talking about. But humanity is as good as it's ever been, you're just to ignorant and naive to realize it. And it's not even close, if FAR better than just a few years ago. \n\n\nIs the current system perfect? FAR from it. But blaming capitalism is like blaming the invention of trade. It's just a tool. Humans are the problem. \n\n\n>What the actual fuck are you talking about?\n\nYes you're obviously not equipped to have these sort of discussions rationally.", "Instruction unclear, I read the communist manifesto. What now?", "Insulting someone’s intelligence while using the improper form of too is always sweet. \n\nPerhaps you’ve heard of the Nordic model? Or are you the naive and ignorant one?\n\nBonus fact: these countries enjoy poverty levels around 20% lower than the United States. So you’re just wrong across the board.", "You are confused about the crux of the issue if you think it has anything to do with inflation. Theoretically you could have capitalism without money at all (let alone inflation), although obviously that would be a nightmare in practice. The core problem is consumption, and has nothing to do with money let alone inflation.\n\nYou are getting mixed up over a particular definition of economic \"growth\", which is just a practical convention. It's reported in units of dollars for convenience, and is inflation-adjusted for consistency across eras. This is done to fix a problem with the units and has nothing to do with the fundamental quantity.", "It's easy to cast doubt. Sure it's going to be likely that no one comes out of this happy. But try maybe having some optimism that at least something good will happen. Especially since, unless they leave with some full scale plan to stop climate change, the media is going to frame it as though nothing happened because people want cynicism. Cynicism is easy, it's tiring that this is what we just expect now so we can't even be mildly hopeful.", "You insulted first - by asking wtf I'm talking about. \n\n\nNordic countries are HEAVILY capitalist, with a few socialist policies. They are a strong argument for capitalism, not against it. And we were talking about communism, which is something different to socialism. \n\n\nIf you look in the history books, there is a mountain of evidence (and bodies) against communism a socialism. Find one success story, I dare you. \n\n\nComparing Nordic poverty to USA poverty is stupid. They are smaller in population than New York. I'm actually an African, and what USA calls poverty, is a luxury for 75% of the world. You need to wise the fuck up.", "Cool, so you also know communism killed 80 million people at least, and has never had a successful application.", "Who the fuck was talking about communism?\n\nNordic policies are cooperative where ours are cut throat. That’s the major difference, outside of the “socialist” safety net programs they have that are implemented much more successfully and smartly than our own. \n\nBut keep simping for your corporatist overlords, you’re a cuck.", "I’m sorry you were wrong about almost everything you said lmao, fuck off.", "I'm not even American, you arrogant fool. Communism and socialism is being flouted around reddit children like it's the solution. It's the exact opposite. \n\n\nNordic countries are heavy capitalist. You sure are ignorant.", "Not even close. Grow up and read some history books.", "You need hooked on phonics" ]
