@shmibs >2. It’s normal to be afraid to wade into a politically toxic situation.this is the kill-shot that ends science 4eva in my worldview. this + "everything is political" = bye bye science, hello fake regime sciencei don't know how you feel about this issue shmibs but my guess is something like "well, they just looked at the theory a little harder and did some experiments and then science changed it's like just like it's supposed to. isn't that what you want? it's working!" -

@shmibs @lain you're doomed Scrooge, doomed for all time! your future is a horror story written by your crimes. your chains are formed by what you say and do. so have your fun, when day is done, a nightmare waits for you! -

@shmibs @lain Scrooge was a true autist and nerd who dedicated his life to becoming successful in business, and found himself in a position of being hated for pursuing this goal. it's not his fault the surplus populations of London were starving. just let the man enjoy his freaking money -

christmas carol is like the inverted version of that fable about the lazy grasshopper. yeah, don't be an industrious ant who squirrels away his food for the coming winter, that's like Scrooge, he's a cunt, just be a lazy feckless grasshopper and profligate spender of other people's money and then use emotional bullying on people like Scrooge to get him to pay your way through the winter -

@shmibs most people aren't incentivised to ruin their public reputations by challenging a narrative of power because they will face massive personal or professional costs in doing so. even if they might get a sweet side gig selling water filters in the process. i think power has a greater ability to influence people away from believing in reality than people without power, and this seems definitional to me. if you have a problem with this then i got nothing for ya. but it was also just a heuristic on whether to listen to someone and what their motivations might be, it doesn't mean david icke is automatically correct about everything -

@shmibs everything becomes a grift at scale, sure. that's just the nature of mass movements led by wily elites -

if power is behind a narrative, then that doesn't give me enough information to know whether the narrative is true or not. all that it tells me is that the narrative is in power's interest. it might be true, but it might not be. and power also has an incentive to bend the truth to keep itself in power. which means i can't reasonably pick out the signal from the noise. whereas if you directly contradict power, then i can know for sure that you're not just saying what power wants and actually might be interested in truth/reality. it's a strange heuristic for people to understand if they haven't yet been introduced to the idea that power exists and might not be trustworthy. plato's cave, mosca's formula's etc. -

I don't even think you need to go full Alex Jones to explain the vaccine push. You just need: a) they overstated the harmfulness of the pandemic as a Machiavellian tactic to unseat Trump b) pharmaceutical companies made billions from the vaccines they sold to governments. one is power, one is money. there doesn't need to be more complicated than that -

publicly stating something that contradicts mainstream narratives is a condition for me to listen to someone's expert opinion. anybody can lie for power and shill the narrative. if there's not a basic amount of dissenting from groupthink then i'm not interested. this is why i value the opinions of people like Luc Montagnier and Kary Mullis -

how did atheism manage to slide into social justice whilst being completely unable to recognise the religious impulses of social justice.>Being an ally is hard work. Many would-be allies fear making mistakes that could have them labeled as "-ist" or "-ic" (racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, etc). But as an ally, you're also affected by a system of oppression. This means that as an ally, there is much to unlearn and learn—mistakes are expected.admit your sins, we will break you down, make you unlearn, and build you back up, make you born again -

@lain @shmibs I think he's been cancelled recently because of a post that was implicitly transphobic too (at least not sufficiently deferential) -

the world is a far more magical place when the possibility of all magical things has been obliterated by modern science
