Conclusion for today: fedi is even more cretin than I initially thought. And mind you, my first experience of fedi was from a gab account.

Imagine searching for "Chris-chan real name" and you have to scroll down to find Christian and not Christine.

Speaking of intuition... I don't get it how a conspiracy theorist can look at the most dodgy and poorly made websites, with some really poorly written articles, and not have his gut instinct scream at him: "this is not the work of someone I should immediately trust!".

I immediately get that feeling any time I end up on some dodgy blog. It's partly why I never understood the "fake news" fear mongering, because I knew exactly the types of half-assed blogs the hysteria was initially targeting (right before mainstream conservative publications started being brandished with the label by borderline communists), and I thought one doesn't need more than 2 brain cells to get that gut feeling that a "news" website is just click bait farm, and not a reliable source of knowledge.

Are you gonna listen to a trans faggot when they try to inject hormones into your kids just because they say "I did my own research"? Of course you fucking won't, because you know the "research" consists of a bunch of echo chamber blog posts, that is indistinguishable in structure from the "research" of your favorite conspiracy man. Same type of echo chamber that won't ever see something opposing their opinion.

The "he did his own research" is such a stupid non-argument. A blue haired, trans faggot feminist activist does it's own research too. Doesn't mean it's good for anything.

And that's not even mentioning that "did his own research" just means he read one or two conspiracy theory blogs.

There is a difference between scientific consensus and common parlance consensus that people don't seem to be able to grasp.
Similar to how there's a vastly different meaning between how scientists use the word "theory" and how a normie does.

2+2=4 is a scientific consensus.
If you can't wrap your brain around that, and if you insist that "science doesn't work by consensus!" then you don't understand the scientific process.

I get that it's probably satire, but I still think it's too cringe to be left alive.

TFW you see a post so cringe you want to block the person outright.

I love that people here keep giving the benefit of the doubt to Russia. Interesting to see fedi not being dumb enough to believe western propaganda, but still stupid enough to believe Putin propaganda.

People don't seem to realize just how much Romanians hate Russia.

Breaking news: EVGA is based. Fuck Nvidia.

Sometimes I wish I was more innocent and ignorant of the world. Like, imagine not knowing what a dilator is and what it's used for. Wouldn't that be nice?

The nukes are getting bored. We should let them do something every once in a while. The way we keep them locked up all the time is cruel and unusual punishment.
