LOL, we've got to hurt animals by imprisoning them and charging tickets for people to ogle at them, because otherwise bad people will do bad things. I see.

I judged the video based on the introduction. Which is part of the purpose of having an introduction: to decide whether it's worth investing one's time and attention in what's being introduced.

You can admit that you don't like her style

WTF are you talking about?

[–] rah@feddit.uk -5 points 1 year ago (5 children)

She discusses several professors of evopsych with published papers, like Geoffrey Miller and David Buss.

Discussing evolutionary psychology professors instead of discussing evolutionary psychology? Another reason not to bother.

Because one of my goals is maximize environmental conservation.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Maybe get over the idea that human actions are needed in order to conserve the environment.

Doesn't she mention published evopsych papers right from the very beginning?

She shows some titles, I'm not sure if they're headlines from newspaper articles or titles of peer-reviewed papers. Regardless, she doesn't discuss evolutionary psychology at all in what I watched, she just talks about idiots on the Internet.

Edit: 3 minutes is literally the end of the intro. You didn't watch any actual content of the video if that's a correct statement.

Edit: right. Because given what I did watch, there's no reason for me to watch any more.

Got to about 3 minutes and couldn't watch any more. She's not arguing against evolutionary psychology, she's arguing against idiots on the Internet who hold up evolutionary psychology to justify their views.

I'm asking if the wave functions in the particles around us could collapse in such a way that they could absorb light, or even change the composition of atoms?

Your question doesn't make sense.

[–] rah@feddit.uk 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

a wave function "cascade"

I'm not sure what you're referring to. It sounds like you've heard some physics words, misunderstood them, and are regurgitating them based on that misunderstanding.

The scientific method doesn't rule out any phenomena, it simply provides a method of investigating phenomena.

I'd very much like to hear what you think the other valid options the UK general public has to make an impact at this election.

I didn't mention making an impact.
