Science is indistinguishable from magic, if you don't care to learn how science works.
I absolutely feel like in a thousand years, we'll talk to a machine and not even know how it works.
Hell, I look at the computer in front of me and only feel like I know a fraction of what's going on.
Magnets, how do they work?
I just love how the conspiracies reinforce each-other in the most convenient ways.
"Anyone who doesn't get vaxed is going to be put in a FIMA concentration camp!"
"What? That's crazy, where's the evidence of that?!"
"You can't find it because they're censoring everything on the Internet."
So now, not finding evidence of conspiracy 1 is evidence for conspiracy 2!
"You can find the truth at www.truthfindarz.net, but I don't go there because it's full of conspiracies."
facepalm
I'm disappointed that's not a real link lol
Also: when conspiracy theories are convenient ways to avoid havig to understand how things work.
And this a very common mindset, because most societies (some more than others) take children’s* innate curiosity and pound it flat for the sake of efficiency by way of standardisation. It really is a shame, since we waste a lot of potential as a species this way.
e: a word
That's what they want you to believe!
It's only a conspiracy theory if it's not a proven conspiracy.
Throwing a line from Hitman in the mix to make it more confusing:
“If it looks like a conspiracy, it probably isn’t.”
Why does it look like that then? Tananananana 🎵
Good use of Keanu meme, as he recently fell for and is promoting a conspiracy theory (ancient civilizations).
Wrong use of meme
Conversely, everything is a conspiracy when you do understand how things work.
Underrated comment
Everyone's conspiring folks. What's hard to measure, is who's conspiring
It’s important to understand the prevalence of coincidence and incompetence. Humans are exceptional at pattern-finding – too good, really. In order to think critically, we need to recognise our own tendency to find patterns where none exist.
