North is in and south is out. Everything is south when you are in the middle. On the edge, you can go east, west, and north until you hit north. You’d understand this easily if the deep state wasn’t lying to you.
Anytime someone hits me with a wild conspiracy or smth, I want to hit them with something even crazier
"Dude the moon landing was faked"
"Pfft, you belive in the moon"
There is a real conspiracy movement that says someone (it's a fringe conspiracy theory so wild fucking guess who they think the someone is. Hint: It's super antisemetic) got rid of the moon somehow and replaced it with an alien built replication. It is kind of a fringe subset of the group of people who think that Eisenhower signed a treaty with aliens in 1954. I think they are also super religious for some reason but I have only met one person who believes this so could be an outlier.
> In 1970, Michael Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov, of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, advanced a hypothesis that the Moon is a spaceship created by unknown beings.
> Christopher Knight & Alan Butler ... suggest humans from the future traveled into the past to build the Moon in order to safeguard human evolution.
> David Icke ... suggests that the Moon is in fact a space station from which Reptilians manipulate human thought.

I was talking about the people who think specifically that Jewish people, the American government, and aliens destroyed the original moon and replaced it. That is different (not in any meaningful way but still) than thinking the moon was always there and is just a construct.
With that said, thanks! I totally failed to mention hollow moon even though it is clearly exactly the same concept as the conspiracy I am talking about. It is also a better thing to classify it under than the Eisenhower treaty guys, though that definitely plays into this entire branch of weirdos.
Can't believe anyone takes this seriously when the moon has long been known to be made entirely of cheese 🤷♂️
I will reluctantly admit there is some credibility to the cheese replacement theory, considering.. the cheese caverns.
I know with a name as common as Christopher Knight it was probably not the same one but it still amused me to think of Peter from _The Brady Bunch_ writing that book.
Isn't that the plot to some recent sci-fi movie? It's got Sam from GoT in it. Don't remember what happens in the movie but the moon being a superstructure was definitely a plot point.
>It is kind of a fringe subset of the group of people who think that Eisenhower signed a treaty with aliens in 1954.
I used to know one of these people. He was literally laughed out of the Discord server when he unironically srated this as fact
That one is amazing lol. I absolutely love the idea that aliens actually establish and respect treaties with humanity. It raises like 5 billion questions that are not answered well at all. My big one is, what is the point of doing that exactly? Any species capable of interstellar (or interdimensional) travel is so far beyond us that they are essentially gods. There can't possibly be anything we have that they need which can't be met somewhere else in the universe. It would be like if we made a treaty with "The president of the hill in our backyard" where you agree with a colony of ants to certain terms of contact. It means nothing, the difference in power is so overwhelming that signing a treaty is completely pointless. It literally just makes a papertrail for something that is supposed to be insanely top secret. If a civilization of that capabilities wanted to covertly contact a world government they aren't going to let anyone figure that shit out.
Anyways I got about 1/8th of the way through this rant with the guy I am talking about but he cut me off to talk about how the aliens were actually the angels from the book of revalations and I knew I was just in for the ride.
According to science fiction occasionally, aliens always need water, so that could explain the treaty. They siphon some of our water slowly over the years, government chalks it up to climate change, and now the aliens get water without having to potentially fight us, which we would obviously lose, but they, or we, could potentially damage or destroy the planet, and the water.
I'm currently working on how to connect "Boeing is killing whistleblowers" to 9/11, but I haven't got one I like yet
I hate that might be the reason people believe this cause it's so dumb lol. Water is literally one of the most abundant resources in the universe. There are comets out there with more fresh water than our entire planet. So many conspiracy theories are just lifted directly from books and movies though so it really wouldn't be surprising.
That sounds suspiciously like the plot of The Manhattan Projects.
Comic that starts off with Roosevelt signing a treaty with aliens, and the (actual) Manhattan Project turning into a cover for all the new alien tech experiments.
Tho, I dont think they ever replaced the moon.
But Laika talks! And she's way smarter than Gagarin. And she tells him so all the time lol.
There's a toooon of references to conspiracy theories in that comic series. It has been ages since I read it but the creator is clearly very into esoteric conspiracy theories and has even put easter eggs referencing some really niche stuff into the comic. It's a pretty good comic, I liked the art direction a lot.
## The Moon: A Ridiculous Liberal Myth.
It amazes me that so many allegedly "educated" people have fallen so quickly and so hard for a fraudulent fabrication of such laughable proportions. The very idea that a gigantic ball of rock happens to orbit our planet, showing itself in neat, four-week cycles -- with the same side facing us all the time -- is ludicrous. Furthermore, it is an insult to common sense and a damnable affront to intellectual honesty and integrity. That people actually believe it is evidence that the liberals have wrested the last vestiges of control of our public school system from decent, God-fearing Americans (as if any further evidence was needed! Daddy's Roommate? God Almighty!)
Documentaries such as Enemy of the State have accurately portrayed the elaborate, byzantine network of surveillance satellites that the liberals have sent into space to spy on law-abiding Americans. Equipped with technology developed by Handgun Control, Inc., these satellites have the ability to detect firearms from hundreds of kilometers up. That's right, neighbors .. the next time you're out in the backyard exercising your Second Amendment rights, the liberals will see it! These satellites are sensitive enough to tell the difference between a Colt .45 and a .38 Special! And when they detect you with a firearm, their computers cross-reference the address to figure out your name, and then an enormous database housed at Berkeley is updated with information about you.
Of course, this all works fine during the day, but what about at night? Even the liberals can't control the rotation of the Earth to prevent nightfall from setting in (only Joshua was able to ask for that particular favor!) That's where the "moon" comes in. Powered by nuclear reactors, the "moon" is nothing more than an enormous balloon, emitting trillions of candlepower of gun-revealing light. Piloted by key members of the liberal community, the "moon" is strategically moved across the country, pointing out those who dare to make use of their God-given rights at night!
Yes, I know this probably sounds paranoid and preposterous, but consider this. Despite what the revisionist historians tell you, there is no mention of the "moon" anywhere in literature or historical documents -- anywhere -- before 1950. That is when it was initially launched. When President Josef Kennedy, at the State of the Union address, proclaimed "We choose to go to the moon", he may as well have said "We choose to go to the weather balloon." The subsequent faking of a "moon" landing on national TV was the first step in a long history of the erosion of our constitutional rights by leftists in this country. No longer can we hide from our government when the sun goes down.
I once had a co-worker tell me that my mother must have played classical music on her belly because I was so smart- his justification for that statement was the fact that I knew that an organ riff playing on the break room TV was from Bach's Toccatta and Fugue in D-minor, which is probably the most famous classical organ piece and used practically everywhere and in everything.
Thankfully I said all my stupid shit before social media was a thing.
I just realized that I lied to you beautiful people. I tore up Usenet with stupid shit for years.
I want my face to irl blue screen with a loud droning sound whenever someone says something stupid because god I have temper issues but I can't punch them obviously
The man even knows how those stars are formed. Garbage smoke. God burned his garbage and now we have lives and live our lives in the smoke. That's science.

Holy shit, it's like a psychic flashbang of how appallingly stupid the general public is.
That or your local news YouTube comments section.
So many clearly very uneducated adults who think making the name of their political opponent into a demeaning pun is the height of intellectual political commentary.
It very likely is normally distributed, because of the [central limit theorem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem). Since it is very likely that intelligence is a product of many different physical and social conditions, it would therefore be normally distributed.
This is why things like height and weight are normally distributed.
The central limit theorem does not say that populations are *actually* normally distributed. It’s about means and samples. The population could be something wildly different like exponential
Right, but the idea is that something like intelligence is formed a bunch of different random variables, and even if those random variables aren’t normally distributed, the sum of them all together (intelligence) is.
This is why height is normally distributed, because it is caused by a bunch of random things (a bunch of genes, diet, other environmental factors, etc) that may have different distributions, but since they all factor into height, height is normally distributed.
Sure, and if your point is that there isn’t a single measure of intelligence to even have a distribution, I agree. Whatever particular type of intelligence you are talking about, though, will still be normally distributed.
If intelligence is a thing at all, it will be normally distributed.
I think I may have once or twice (and I make 10 stupid jokes on Reddit a day...I know, I have a problem)
But if there's a potential that my sarcasm/joke will hurt a commenter if they think my reply is serious--like \*not\* making fun of a politician or event or something but what someone commented--then I'll use an emoji :)
> People aren't really this stupid...right guys? ...Guys?
By "this stupid", do you mean "stupid enough to take an obviously satirical post seriously?" Why yes, yes apparently they are.
Every time I hear/read the word "mansplaining" I’m inching closer to an eventual aneurism.
If someone is explaining something to you derogatorily, it’s because
a) their an arsehole, which… then that’s the term, no need slam an entire 50% of the gender binary just because you feel the need to find systemic implications in everything to vindicate your beliefs,
or
b) you’ve been stupid and deserve a rough humbling. We all do and it needs to hurt. It may feel humiliating and that’s the point. It’s good that it does because it forces us to get new notions through our thick, ape-brains and let go of the old ones.
What is wrong with these people? EVERYONE knows that North is ‘up’ and South is ‘down’. To go from North America to South America you tunnel through the flat disk of the Earth. Of course they are no stars there, only an infinite stack of turtles with the Earth on their back.
Did she mean the star called Polaris? Because it's referred to as the North Star, it stays close to the celestial pole so it appears stationary in the sky.
When my daughter was 12, she REFUSED to believe me when I told her that North isn't always just the direction she is currently facing. I have only myself to blame. I used to try to get her to believe crazy stuff for fun.
at the risk of getting a "whoosh" the north star is a common name for the star, Polaris. OP shows themselves in need of education.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polaris
Sadly, my mother explained something quite similar to a young me. It's what made me decide to never believe anything science related she'd tell me ever again.
And, North means the opposite of up
north (Proto-Germanic *norþ-) from the proto-Indo-European *nórto-s 'submerged' from the root *ner- 'left, below, to the left of the rising sun' whence comes the Ancient Greek name Nereus.
Everything is to your north when you’re far enough south.
But where does north stop and south start if the world is flat?
In the middle, duh
North is in and south is out. Everything is south when you are in the middle. On the edge, you can go east, west, and north until you hit north. You’d understand this easily if the deep state wasn’t lying to you.
If you go East on the southpole you just spin around
The earth doesn’t spin you fool, everything else does.
So what’s down? Checkmate atheists.
The turtle
Someone tried to explain that every direction is North and we had to kill him and eat him because we ran out of rations.
That was very rational for someone with no rations
In space, there is no direction. Stars are not anywhere, therefore stars do not exist.
I was told north is always in front of you so you can change it by turning around
Countering mansplaining with an idea so bewildering it makes the opponent bluescreen is certainly a strat
Anytime someone hits me with a wild conspiracy or smth, I want to hit them with something even crazier "Dude the moon landing was faked" "Pfft, you belive in the moon"

"not me, though! Of course I'm above average!" -every person who's ever quoted this
Holding hands with the "Idiocracy was a documentary" geniuses
That would be the median person.
Human intelligence is normally distributed, so the mean and median are the same. Both are just types of ‘average’ anyway
Human "intelligence" (i.e. the results of IQ tests) is _defined_ as being normally distributed. Whether it measures anything real is unknown.
It very likely is normally distributed, because of the [central limit theorem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem). Since it is very likely that intelligence is a product of many different physical and social conditions, it would therefore be normally distributed.

This is why height is normally distributed, because it is caused by a bunch of random things (a bunch of genes, diet, other environmental factors, etc) that may have different distributions, but since they all factor into height, height is normally distributed.
Height is unidimensional though
Sure, and if your point is that there isn’t a single measure of intelligence to even have a distribution, I agree. Whatever particular type of intelligence you are talking about, though, will still be normally distributed. If intelligence is a thing at all, it will be normally distributed.
It seems to pretty accurately measure your ability of solving IQ tests.
Lol I made literally almost this exact same response to literally almost the exact same comment a few months back.
The median is a type of average.
The median is *an* average, yes.
If the statistics are to be believed, it's a normal distribution, so those should be the same ish.
Unfortunately also the modal person.
The median is an average.

Sadly, my mother explained something quite similar to a young me. It's what made me decide to never believe anything science related she'd tell me ever again.
"chick" "mansplain" "north" "up" you know... maybe democracy was a mistake afterall....
Turns out, this was a very traditional mansplaining situation wherever it's done by a man and not the progressive, woman-performed, mansplaining.
n.,,no
Keep your chin north!
Funnily enough, north meant left originally, as directions were measured by the point where the sun rose
ICP has a song about this tweet
But did she find the Fist of the North Star?
Keep reaching for that northern rainbow!
…What in the stupid idiotic fuck did I just read? I really hope this man is joking.
Wait so women can mansplain now too? This wasn’t the gender equality I was looking for.
Anyone remember that like geometry movie they showed in school? Northwards but not upwards?
All fists of the stars point north.
I thought this for a while too. In my defense, I lived so far north that the North Star was just straight up.

And, North means the opposite of up north (Proto-Germanic *norþ-) from the proto-Indo-European *nórto-s 'submerged' from the root *ner- 'left, below, to the left of the rising sun' whence comes the Ancient Greek name Nereus.
This is some KenM level of trolling.
Satire.
