I'll admit, maybe 1/3 of this goes right over my head, but I still laughed/found it interesting. I've watched quite a few of this lady's vids, I like her.

That was a lot to learn about nothing 😂

 

It was very good though. Not sure I would ask for nothing for my birthday, as that would put an unduly amount of stress on my friends 😁

Her videos are great. She is one of my favorite Youtubers. I loved the recent one about alternative theories to the Big Bang when she says that if another theory makes things more complicated without any new evidence, then it's not scientific. 😂

Meh.

Aren't non-physical entities the same as abstract objects?

Why do I have this nagging suspicion, that action was only taken by the New Delhi cops, after getting pressured by Austrian police?

Oh, I don't know, you're a racist and don't like Indians?

But maybe - maybe! - because they still let them scam their own people, apparently, even after being served evidence on a silver platter. Tough, dunno, I'm going with racist here.

Racist! :p

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

The conspiracy theorist 'worldview' and the language of their argument

Quote

A study, now published in Science Advances, has analyzed the difference between mainstream and conspiracy articles. It found that conspiracies rely on other conspiracies as "evidence," jumping around different topics, less coherently than mainstream texts, but relying on a web of interconnected ideas to connect the dots.

So... basically then it's a giant circle jerk.
