“Everyone I know is an idiot, therefore I must also act like an idiot.”
World’s most clueless man
Most well paid clueless man, maybe
Yeah, would love to see him, Eric Weinstein, Terrence Howard, Eric dubay, James tour, and Billy Carlson stuck in a room that they can’t leave until they can prove one of their worldviews to be plausible. Would be the most entertaining thing ever watching them argue while pretending they agree with each other bc they have to pretend they are all thinking the same thing or their whole “mainstream academia” thing falls apart.
I think that maybe losing his job at fox news phased him more than he let on
He expected to be his own brand, like Musk or Trump or Limbaugh. When he realized he was still just another faceless interchangeable mouthpiece, that definitely fucked his ego.
not a shitpost
Reality is a shitpost at this point.
Richard Rhodes’ The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a great book that kind of explains all that in detail…
but i would say it is either the Curie’s experiments, discovering the neutron, splitting the atom, Fermi’s reactor, or the tests during the Manhattan project; all really well documented.
HOLY FUCK! HAS ANYONE TOLD JAMES CLERK MAXWELL?!
At first look, I thought he was holding up a bullhorn straight at the camera instead of there being an annular throbber on the screenshot
Annular throbber? Is he trying to one up Trump and the microphone?
How convenient it would be to believe that the immense forces of destruction we are capable of did not originate with us
I have never met a person who can isolate the moment when X became known to man.
The fuck does that even mean? The second? Is he asking for a dateand time? How many people has he asked? Could any of them look it up?
I have never met a person who canisolatw the moment when ice cream became known to man.
Edir: fixed a typo.
This isn’t ancient history, it was less than 100 years ago. Links in my top level comment, but the answer is that nuclear fission as a concept emerged right around Christmas 1938.
Ice cream is far older, with early evidence of chilled dairy desserts from the Tang Dynasty ca. 618-907 CE.
You don’t count as the “a person I’ve met”. I appreciate your efforts all the same.
lol, fair enough!
And if you look back before fission, modern physics has a pretty well documented history. You can generally start at Maxwell, move forward to the guys who were trying to rectify the predicted speed of light vs observed speed of light, quantum physics, etc. I spent half a year getting real deep into it but you could probably teach the gist of pre-1945 nuclear physics in an afternoon
Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. Oppenheimer
Btw, Demon Core
Edit: right, nuclear technology, not nukes. See Marie Curie.
Do not show this man a circuit
Ah yes, the ol’ “if I don’t know something, then it MUST be X” argument.
Substitute X for whatever ya like! Demons, ghouls, demon ghouls…the possibilities are endless!
Dude my brother-in-law.
Fuckin’ aliens built everything! Baghdad Batteries? Aliens. Pool of mercury in a pyramid? Alien Power Cell that we don’t understand yet.
It does again show that these people are like irrational, unscientific, religious cultists. We, as in humanity, should aim to progress away from such a dark past, not regress back into one. That way lies madness.
All those fuckers have been going into full loony mode lately.
