I wish NASA thought about NASA the way this guy thinks about NASA

[–] yeather@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I saw we should fund NASA like conspiracy theorists think we do. It’s amazing how much they do with so “little” money.

NASA: this guy's right, we should build a Dyson Sphere.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 53 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (9 children)

That's right! The sun, the thing that prevents our entire planet from being a frozen rock, which imparts 44 quadrillion watts of energy on the Earth's surface, is just an elaborate NASA hoax!

They actually generate all that energy with...

...Uh...

???

Solar simulators are actually really cool, and it's a shame these goobers are too busy pretending to know everything, in order to feel special, to actually learn what they are.

(If someone hasn't heard of them, here's one of the biggest ones.)

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

They generate that power using the unlimited abundance of energy generated by the mental gymnastics of people like these

The Sun being fake is a new one to me.

[–] Telorand@reddthat.com 24 points 1 month ago

Look up "Solar Simulator." It's a real device scientists use to test the effects of sunlight on various things, from solar panels to satellites (depending on the size of the simulator).

Flerfs think NASA has one that they bring out during the day and float in the sky just to make Flerfs look stupid, when in reality, they don't need any help looking stupid.

Could be in response to the guy who wants to bring flat earthers to Antarctica. He wants to prove a globe by showing them, that there is 24 hours of daylight there. Now the flat earthers a fabulating about a sun simulator as a counter to it.

I've delved down this hole myself in recent months because it's fun. YouTube channels I'd recommend for people wanting to laugh at flerfers:

The ones I can think of off the top of my head are: SciManDan, Creaky Blinder, Conspiracy Toonz, David McKeegan and Fight The Flat Earth (FTFE). I've also been watching a lot of Planet Peterson lately, but his way of doing things is very much "say something stupid and I will verbally lay into you until you admit you're a fucking dumbass" which I'm sure can grate on some people and make him come across as very obnoxious and rude.

But they will all help educate you on why flat earth (and other conspiracies aside) are stupid, to varying degrees, espeically Dave McKeegan if you're into photography.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

You clearly don't watch enough videos of someone ranting for 3 hours on YouTube. Then you'd know all about it.

Being this stupid is a threat to national security.

[–] gndagreborn@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

You joke, but that is just about the sum of it. Illiteracy followed by deranged conspiracy theories erode public trust in institutions. The current GOP is case and point.

I don’t think this person understands how equations work.

Who never left Antarctica?!

[–] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

I think it’s Nazis, based on the length of the word and placement of the tittle.

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 26 points 1 month ago

That makes a hell of a lot more sense than what I thought it was. But why'd they censor "Nazi"? I assumed it was a slur because why else would you censor an "n-word"?

[–] Tenthrow@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not sure why it was edited but seems right. I think the dot of the "i" made it outside the box there.

Watch your language, we don’t want to tittle-ate the weans.

[–] Skunk@jlai.lu 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nazis, there’s a conspiracy theory that they built a secret compound there to do ??? (Nazis shit), fled to that place that is still undiscovered to that day so, obviously still working.

I didn’t know they would be equal to deep state.

The reality is that those cumslain trumptards are mistaking the former Soviet Vostok base with a secret nazi base.

[–] burgersc12@mander.xyz 6 points 1 month ago (4 children)

No, you missed the best part of the conspiracy theory! They moved to Antarctic base in order to secretly develop and build UFO-like discs (Die Glocke) and that's why operation HighJump failed! Nazi UFOs!! They're gonna kill us all or something!!

The reason the sun sets is it takes so much energy to run that they have to switch to a much dimmer "moon" at night to give themselves enough time to recharge the battery enough for the next day's light. It's solar-powered, so of course they need to ensure it's not running at max brightness in order to get the most gains.

[–] Cyclist@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Ah! The sun is run on solar power. Now I understand.

Before NASA who simulated the sun? In the middle ages they had no weather? Or history is also a hoax 🤔

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 11 points 1 month ago (3 children)

NASA destroyed the magic industry, captured the wizzards and forces them to inscribe runes into silicon.

The sun being fake is a new one I got to say

[–] MirthfulAlembic@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, I can't get over that. NASA was formed in 1958... Are they saying there was no sun before then? Literally every culture that has left behind any archaeological evidence has referenced the sun in some way.

Unless they believe that the sun is a god that NASA captured in the late 50s and replaced with a simulation so we wouldn't notice. That would be crazy too, but kinda metal as far as conspiracies go.

Fuck, some people are beyond saving. I hope this person is incapable of having children and is not in a position to teach or interact with kids at all.

is that censored word the n word? or a name or something? Why is it censored?

[–] citizenserious@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

The word is Nazi, there is a conspiracy theory that Hitler and the Nazis fled to Antarctica. Some even say that at the poles are portals which lead inside the Earth, where they still life under a black sun. Crazy right? I still try to figure out how they manage to live inside a flat earth. Could also not figure out if Hitler is on the moon our dark sunbathing. But I think the moon is more realistic, think about it, you just have to replace the S and the A in NASA and you get Nazi. If that's not a proof enough that crocodiles are our leaders I can't help you anymore.

People censor so much on the Internet and it baffles me. Like, thanks for saving my sensitive eyes from the word Nazi I guess?

Anyone want to test that site to see if it's safe?

[–] TragicNotCute@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It’s safe for your computer, but perhaps not for your eyes or brain. Lots of bright colors and bold claims.

The website on there is ridiculous 😂

Didn't know that Solar Radiation Management and Carbon Dioxide Removal were ideologies.

Why are skies now so often filled with the lingering, expanding, and sky covering remnants of jet aircraft dispersions?

More... more planes, perhaps?
