Jah Truth #fundie #dunning-kruger

Or, we can continue to read the Bible. Genesis 1:24-25
"And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good."

Using the KJV (cause I'm assuming the OP would) that's what the Bible says. So mankind wasn't the only critter made on dry land. Verse 20 is specifically birds and water life. You can't have just missed it, you're lying. Color me shocked. I guess sins like eating shellfish, mixing fabrics, and homosexuality are the ones that get you to hell, but bearing false witness is more a suggestion than a rule. Not like it was a commandment or something.

So, let's say the museum goes through with this. One of their interns goes through, top to bottom, live streams it with a go pro while teaching about the items, goes over why some are in the basements, etc.

Would you care? Would that be enough? What sort of proof could they give you you'd accept?

And... you're impressed by "the technology needed to create" underground structures? You mean a shovel? And these people wonder why they are seen as uneducated dolts.

Everyone driving legally has taken a driving test, why do I need to wear a seat belt?

Why should I keep a fire extinguisher handy? Everyone pays for the fire department.

Why do surgeons need masks and gloves? They're healthy, right?

Maybe it's because like any virus, even if it isn't currently affecting you, it can still be spread. And as a bunch of idiots worship Nurgle and want to spread the plague, we should keep things safe, especially as we aren't quite sure how new strains will react with the virus.

Heart the Healer #crackpot #magick #dunning-kruger #quack

What is vibrating in this nonsense? I had mentioned it previously, but these New Agey woo peddlers make no frelling sense. Are the atoms vibrating? The entire body?

If it's the former, a quick google search for atom vibration rate says that atoms have an average of 10^13hz to 10^14hz. That is... several orders of magnitude more than 25.5hz. As for the entire body, bodies don't work like that. We're not the Flash.

Also, had jokingly said it, but, would a paint mixer or sitting on a jackhammer help? If not why not?

Biblical Gender Roles #fundie #sexist

I'm all for spanking in a healthy relationship, especially if the spankee has been very naughty.

But that's a different sort of discipline that I'm not sure the OP would support. Safe, sane, and consensual are the words to go by, and the OP seems rather opposed to that, the last one especially.

Jen McCarty #crackpot #conspiracy #ufo #magick #mammon

So... let's see.

For the Gaelic May Day, you are sending out (somehow) a transmission (of nebulous origin and type) with a nonexistent collective consciousness to turn 5G towers into 432 hz Tesla tower. Because that is a thing a transmission can do. And you are doing this to empower and solidify this... timeline actualization. Which is a sentence full of words I know, but is a full course woo word salad when strung together.

This transmission will also clean and transmute the energy of the ocean into something. And you're being helped by golden dolphins. Actually gold sentient dolphin golems or just colored gold?

But this dolphin aided transmission will align higher dimensional codes (of course) and get us cool new frequencies (or hertz, or hz) that is our birthright. Why would we need multiple frequencies? Is the 432 one not good enough? Would strapping a baby in a paint can shaker kill it or lead it down the path to Enlightenment?

I think I hate this sort of New Age woo peddler more than the usual religious type because while stupid, egregiously immoral, or plain hateful, at least they tend to use words correctly. Most of these there isn't anything to really dispute or try to reason with because they aren't actually saying anything.

Yes, it was the radio waves.

Not the cold metal rooms in a cramped metal ship, working hours on end, in an apparent veritable petri dish of disease, with the arduous task of constantly sending out and translating messages as lives hung on the balance of you all being as accurate and quick as possible.

That stuff was irrelevant, it was the radio waves. Which is why radios in general are well known for disease and causing mental illness.

@Mathius_dragon Sorta. We're not decendents of any extant ape other than other humans. Just like we are also technically monkeys, since you don't really grow "out" of your previous genealogical group. Like how if one of your ancestors was royalty you have royal blood, or have Haitian ancestry from multiple generations ago. Just on a much, much larger scale.

As for the OP, if he believes evolution would explain a lot of things, why not humans? It's not like there is some arbitrary cutoff or random spontaneous generation to flesh out the gene pool.

@People making fun of the word golf

It's completely justified, but with how fast and loose woo idiots use definitions of words anyway, I'm sure they mean they were given lots of "golf." Which is like quantum golf energies that help fix your chakras by tapping into all those multi dimensional vibrations.

Makes as much sense as being given lots of a sport. Or gold, and the person couldn't be bothered to fix the typo.

"I don't care about other people and the effects my gross negligence would have on them, but it's ok because they also don't meet my standards of caring for people.

1. You can break a bone just by being hit by another person. Or if you took a hammer to your finger. So because you can break your own bones, are you not.... from the same planet as yourself? But, that's just physics. No different planet nonsense needed.
2. Your poor time management doesn't meant that there is a dark nefarious plot.
3. How do you follow? Wouldn't it make more sense that our eyes are adapted to the planet because we have a pretty nice set of eyes that thrive in the Earth environment with the exception of extremes or stupid decisions? We also can't see in the dark, would any planet with a night on it be foriegn to us? And... the less heat = better advancement, you'd expect a ring of advanced civilizations around the equator and that's demonstrably false.

Your hypothesis is weak, your "proofs" are easily proven false. I think we're from Earth. Ignoring all the other evidence that supports that.

Pastor Greg Locke #wingnut

I dunno, when one of the main lawyers defends themselves with "No reasonable person would assume I was making statements of fact" trying to avoid being charged with libel resulting from their myriad election fraud lawsuits... maybe people who believe those claims are the dangerous and delusional ones. They were the ones who stormed the Capitol building, assaulting officers and beating one to death, after all.

Nell Stevens #sexist

The first paragraph me going there, I almost would have bet money on the rest if the post being some woo nonsense. Can color me surprised when the "secret feminine form of communication" is... talking casually to someone about how you are, how they are, etc. You know, being remotely empathetic towards your friends. Something that isn't a feminine secret and rather just a general trait of a human being who isn't a sociopath.

And as Speakeasy said, the op isn't really correct about mansplaining. It's more about the manner that the information is relayed vs the content. It's considered mansplaining when the male is relaying info while being condescending, chauvinistic, and/or acting like the woman being told the information wouldn't know about the info because she's a woman. So womansplaining would be a woman explaining things to men in a condescending, chauvinistic manner, acting like the men wouldn't know about the topic because they are men. I guess an example could be some lady explaining that conversations are a thing people can do.

PETA #crackpot #psycho

Not really much of a moral grey area for some people, and until we can harvest cloned or grown meat on a massive scale to meet meat demands, living animals are the best choice.

Sure being needlessly cruel to them isn't a good thing, and there are some animal farming practices that are abhorrent, but not everyone has the ability/time/resources to hunt for exactly what they want to eat.

And it's not like plant farming is harmless, especially on a massive scale. Wildlife is slaughtered by farm equipment or the result of farm area expansion on a large scale.

On the other hand, the bare faced hypocrisy of PETA condemning harming others is always fun to see.

CitizenZero #wingnut

No, fuck you OP.

I want my taxes working instead of corrupt cronyism and kleptocrats looting the country. I want the companies that use the roads I pay for to help pay for them as well instead of "tax breaks" so they can exponentially increase their wealth.

I want the forced labor and exploitation that really matters to affect the people who do it more than a small fine simply paying back the money that they owe people.

I want the police to be supplemented by other groups so a crazy person who could be talked down is.

I want a lot. The issue isn't that taxation is slavery and/or theft, however you assholes want to define it, it's that corporations and politicians who enable them do not care about people and will happily abuse and kill so long as their coffers keep growing.

Gregory Hood #racist

While this person is a racist idiot and will likely be savaged by other commentators, the article is also fairly iffy for me. Swap the colors around in parts of it, and it reads like something you'd see in the RSTDT section.

Sure, the lady was rude, and got more so after being ignored. But, man. This guy seems to have a rosy vision of how service people are treated. Good for that guy if he always treats service people with respect, but as anyone working in the service industry will tell you, the opposite often happens. And as he said, you don't need to even be looking like staff (does CVS have unique uniforms? From what I remember and a quick look online they look like they just wear polos or button up shirts) to be asked a question. Sure there could be some racial bias from folks who do it, but in general it's people asking for help. Sure people can be entitled and rude, but not all the time.

So I'd say the poster is a racist asshat, though the linked article is still kinda sketchy itself.

guanoloco #homophobia #wingnut

@SomeApe One of the reasons I'd be being petty about it. I'd even include stuff aside from strict definition quibbling, I'd tease about mixing a Latin prefix with a Greek suffix (though a number of phobias do) on top of that.

Even if I grant you that the term was coined by people who think that,it doesn't matter. So long as the word has set into lexicon, homophobic means to have animosity and/or prejudice against homosexuals. Very simple. I could be petty about the nuance of the word, but as a general informal term it's fine. And the team's origin really doesn't matter for what it describes. If the term "computer" was coined by an Asura worshipping, kiddy diddling, cannibal, that wouldn't make "computer" a less accurate or appropriate term.

Not that I AM granting that. Just if I was.

As for the other words, look up "Euphemism Treadmill" for that phenomenon. As words become lexicon and then insults, people try to use a different word that has no stigma. Also it depends on context. Mongoloid, for example, has an actual scientific definition. If you use it to describe some dimwitted asshat, you're now being a fairly racist asshole yourself. Connotations of "primitive" or "ugly" or whatever would be why people don't want the term to be casual slang.

And. What phobic people are marginalized? At most a phobia of small generally harmless animals or something like clowns might be played for laughs in a show, but actual people are understanding. And it's hardly marginalizing when the show acknowledges that phobias are a serious condition.

Bennett Lee Ross #crackpot #conspiracy #fundie #ufo #quack

It's fun now just a cursory reading of woo nonsense will let you know how intelligent the writer is, and how eager they are to spew stupid ideas.

Permission is preferred, but getting it after wiping people's brains is somehow A-Ok. That's just silly.

A darkness rainbow? Either the rainbow is refracting light or it isn't. That idea is just silly.

It's all so ridiculous.

Lincoln Maene , I spent 5 years as an edgy internet atheist #fundie

Oh man. Looked at the full text cor better understanding, and boy, this person is an idiot.
1. It's not the "Jewish" Bible that endorses slavery. It's the Bible. Aside from slavery instructions in the Old Testament, calls to obey Masters are in the New Testament. Also there is a lack of saying that you shouldn't own slaves, which is silly when there are verses reversing God's stance on say. the dietary requirements and divorce.
2. Abolitionism in Europe was spawned during the Enlightenment, which is not exactly the most religious movement.
3. Saying "This figure you talk about and I believed has a list of characteristics that make them unlikely to exist. That is why I k how longer believe X." Is not the same as "Oh, my feelings are hurt. Screw you, X. P.S. I love you."
4. Christianity does not have a monopoly on evil. I'd be happy to argue while certain moral and ethical situations are subjective to a point, objectively evil and good acts exist. It certainly is based on the definitions, but doesn't presuppose or endorse any religious nonsense.
5. Could go on, and might as an edit, but... goodness. Not a good argument at all.

Gr8Believer #fundie #conspiracy

Scientism: noun. The strawman constructed by crazy religious folk, woo peddlers, and other various conmen/deluded folks. It states that observable reality is not only a lie but an evil lie trying to ruin people. There is often some half hearted defense of "science" but no meaningful distinction between it and the strawman.

As for the post. Sure. When stars seemed to be tiny little dots in the sky, it's reasonable to assume that during a great celestial cataclysm they could fall. When we got better telescopes and could prove even the nearest one was many times Earth's size it got silly. It's not an active plot, it's that observable reality contradicts ideas that people had thousands of years ago. That's like saying scientists were out to get Norse mythology by disproving the "giant tree" hypothesis or hates a surprising number of belief systems that thought the world rested on a giant turtle.

@ZappaSaid88

Yeah, saw your first comment on it how she most likely doesn't have any medical background. Most telling is that she calls it "a nurse's outfit" instead of something like "my scrubs" or "my uniform." She doesn't treat it as something she would already have.

And the other part of what I said was more disbelief at her claims. If she's claiming to be a medical professional, how would she not know masks work? Does she think they wear them in hospitals and operating rooms for fun?

But, hm. I do know people pretending to be doctors do get charged and arrested, so might be information to pass along to the proper authorities, especially if she tapes herself doing it.

I dunno, she says she's going around in costume, but I'm not sure "Stupid Nurse" will have the same appeal as "Slutty Nurse."

More seriously, yes. Masks work. It's why doctors and nurses wear them on the job. How would you complete any sort of doctoral or nursing school and not know this?

Kimberley Hall #racist

There is a subtle difference between "We were slaves not even two hundred years ago." And "We were slaves not even two hundred years ago and constant racially motivated practices and laws have kept the firm heel of discrimination pressed deep against our throats, making life more difficult generations after slavery. Even as people work to make it a more fair and accepting society, the damage done is still an ongoing issue."

It's a subtle distinction though. You might not be smart enough to see it.

Yari-Ashigaru #fundie #wingnut

Man, this is easy. If some twatwaffle with a list of points lies about an easily verified fact (I'll use Lincoln provoking traitorous and morally bankrupt assholes into war) then we know what they are saying is one of three options.
1. Everything is is false. So everything can be discarded, and the list is presented by a bad person and a liar.
2. The person is mixing lies and actual facts, but phrased to put the fact in the worst possible light. So everything can be discarded, and the list is presented by a bad person and a liar. Even if there is truth in what they say, the person's message is tarnished beyond repair.
3. The person is regurgitating a list they found and too stupid or too lazy to make sure they are passing along proper information. So everything they say can be discarded because the list was likely started by someone who used option 1 or 2.

Thanks for playing, now stop holding people who thought owning human beings as property was something worth killing for to any degree of respect.

nancyzatanna #wingnut

While it is true that a person can't be punished for behavior a law made illegal (for example, if a law was made that wearing hats on Thursday was punishable by a fine, they can't retroactively fine you for all the times you wore a hat on Thursday previously) there was really no time to establish things BEFORE the war. It was the first time that any states tried to actually secede from the Union. Lincoln, like all tyrants, tried to work to keep things peaceful, going so far to tell forts not to fire until fired upon. After the fact, sure. Because a bit of original jurisdiction came up that the Supreme Court could work with they can say that "no, they actually couldn't do that." That's how the Supreme Court works.

But no, they didn't have time. Because people who were willing to kill and die for their "right" to own humans as property decided to attack Fort Sumpter. And start the Civil War. Again, people were so determined to own human beings as property that they tried to leave a country that wanted to ban it. And they started a war that cost over 700,000 people's lives.

People have always said it was illegal to leave the Union. Just because people threatened to but didn't doesn't make the act itself legal. I could threaten to murder someone, but if I never do that doesn't mean if someone else kills the guy the act itself wasn't always a crime.

And, sure. Abraham Lincoln might not have been a perfect leader, he might have made legally questionable decisions during the war. I can deal with that. But I can never take people seriously who really besmirch his name while trying to defend the morally reprehensible Confederacy.

Glint #fundie #wingnut #transphobia

Eh. Taking the protest at face value, sure. We don't need toddlers watching strip teases or learning to twerk. The only link the the latter doesn't work, so I can't comment on it. As for rolling around with children (in the linked article), I worked at a school with young kids, that sort of behavior wouldn't be allowed no matter who the adult was.

So, sure. The guy is vulgar and likely exaggerating things. Flipside, touching kids like that as an adult and teaching them a highly sexual dance (if the claims are true) isn't appropriate either.

Jonathan Peter Wilkinson #wingnut #elitist #conspiracy #dunning-kruger

Have.. have you seen more than the clips? The time is ambiguous in the movies, the first Mad Max is set in a crumbling society. Road Warrior, Fury Road, and Beyond Thunderdome are all well after relevant governments have collapsed.

Beyond that... it's not that they don't CARE about the cars it's that you CAN'T do the proper maintenance. You can't wash a car without a ready supply of water. You can't do an oil change without oil. Hell, the plot of the second movie was about the villains trying to procure fuel.

In the first movie, he was driving his police issued vehicle and then the special vehicle made for him before the police department collapsed. So in that, he never stole a vehicle, when there is no owner, it can't be stolen. And, looking it to be sure, that same vehicle was used in both Road Warrior and Fury Road, both times maintained as best he could keep it. He uses something else in the third movie, but I couldn't be bothered. I think we're all trying to get beyond Thunderdome. A-ha.

Anyway, aside from his vehicles, Mad Max either uses things offered to him or hops on those of people actively trying to harm him, which, you know. No one should object to.

And finally, the cars aren't a "mulligan" and I'm not sure if you are using it incredibly poorly. Since you are comparing it to Rosebud, it more makes me think you don't know what a "MacGuffin" is. Either way.. neither works. The Mad Max movies really don't have much in the way of MacGuffins. Only the two Road movies come close, but neither really work. As the fuel is actually used in the plot of Road Warrior it's not simply a thing to start it, I'd be generous and not count it. In Fury Road the pregnant women are actual characters, so again, I'd not count it. And trying to compare it to a "mulligan" also fails, as no vehicle is just randomly discarded. If a car is obliterated in a chase, yeah, they can't use it, but the groups try to keep an maintain the vehicles they use, the ending often having them riding them into the sunset with what they finish the finale in.

Every point you raise fails. Maybe you should have watched the movies instead of just a few clips?

Josh Bernstein #wingnut

This is one reason why the Republican Party has had such a staggering fall from being respectable. This crazed religious idiots radicalized by constant talk of how eeeeevil the opposition is. Rush was a huge factor in this, and it's this religious good vs evil boogeyman thinking which is why there is such a problem in the country.

Anything that goes against this twisted religious fervor like abortion or treating homosexuals like people means so long as a demagogue is against that, they can be built up into a Christ figure. See Trump.

So. No. Rush Limbaugh was a garbage human being who helped cause possibly irreparable harm to the country for my lifetime. His feat mongering and hateful rhetoric has helped ruin an untold number of lives. Pretending that the four time married, misogynistic hateful bigot would not only deserve a spot in Heaven but a spot of any note or honor is a slap in the face to Christianity as a whole.

So screw you Josh.

rb47362 #god-complex #wingnut

I can think of two differences between MAGA folk and Al Qaeda to the founding fathers.

The first is the lack of cultish beliefs. MAGA, Q-Anon, etc have effectively deified Trump for some reason, and he's a personification for all the hatred and vitriol the adherents possess. Likewise, Al Qaeda's brand of Islam is pretty vile and violent as the cultishly follow their version of Allah. The founders were deists at best in general, and while they were flawed individuals, they weren't crazed supporters of a cult of personality or religious origins.

The second would be methods and targets. And this ties into why I think the phrase "one man's freedom fighter is another's terrorist" is wrong and inappropriate. Trying to peacefully gain self governance and then have a revolutionary war is markedly different than using intimidation and violence to try to seize power and targeting civilians.

I know cultists tend not to be really bright, but it's a pretty glaring difference.

Lauren Boebert, US Representative for CO District 3 #fundie #wingnut

Is this lady trying to corner the market on stupid political tweets since Trump is gone?

But, no. I could be wrong, but most of what I've found on the half staff flags is really flown at half mast for private citizens. If there are cases I don't remember that's fine, but it is more the exception than the rule. But even then, the person would have to do something to help their fellow people and live a life that would make them an object of national mourning. Rush Limbaugh did not and was not.

While he certainly had a massive audience and helped shape national politics for decades, it wasn't for the better. He was part of the reason for the current political landscape. A hellscape where things are particularly divisive, insulting the opposition is a matter of course, facts are optional at best and discouraged at worst, where changing your opinion based on facts is a sign of weakness, and where the other side is just evil. He's a main reason for the decline of journalism and rise of opinionated morons on TV and radio who people treat like news. He was a cancer on America, it's fitting cancer took him out.

Gerald McDonald #fundie #pratt

The reason that certain single cled organisms are said to have identical copies in their offspring is one main difference between meiosis and mitosis. When a cell undergoes mitosis it makes an Identical* pair from splitting. Meiosis is swapping information between two cells that join together, effectively. The process to make identical* copies makes more similar copies, the process that mixes the genetic material makes more dissimilar copies. How is that hard to grasp?

"It isn't exactly identical. There are slight variations based on mutations that can arise during this process, which is why there are varying types bacteria and other single celled organisms. But they are often similar enough to have virtually no change, which is why some people say certain single celled organisms are effectively immortal and just cloning themselves.

I do wish that businesses like Twitter would be more liberal (ahah, not like that) with their use of the banhammer for hate speech of all sorts, racism of all stripes, all behavior that is supposed to not be allowed, etc

That being said... unless the guy was actively engaging in prostitution or going after a minor, I'm not sure hitting on people violates the Twitter user agreements. Especially if done privately.

If he was engaging in illegal acts of any sort, yeah, ban him. If it's him hitting on people on his personal Twitter in private? Again, unless I missed that line, why would they ban him?

While there might have been some interbreeding, no data so far suggests that Neanderthals had a larger influence on human populations.

The funniest bit is the guy is still an idiot. The ancestors of humans started to spread from Africa over 2 million years ago. As they spread they split. One group was the Neanderthals, so even if Neanderthals did have a larger role in modern humanity's evolution, it does nothing to disprove the "Out of Africa" idea.

To put it in an easy to visualize family comparison. Hu Man's great grandfather came from Africa. His grandfather had lots of children. His father's brother is Nean Derthal. Even if Nean slept with Hu's mom and was really the father... the great grandfather doesn't change.

Well, you can dislike a group and hate members of the group without hating all the members. Depends on the sub divisions. I might disagree to a small extent with all Muslims, but hate all willing and eager members of ISIS, for instance.

Who you hate depends on your standards (moral and ethical hate is different than say, musical or game design hate) and how grossly the person or group violates them. Which is why a group with a billion or so people in it can be graded on a scale, but smaller groups can be graded much more harshly.

Aside from all the other lunacy, it is kinda funny he'd link the Democrats to the KKK, as if the violent, racist, WASP centric, Christian Nationalist group that is the KKK would be anything BUT a group he endorses.
