      1. Secretly interrupt the stream of disinfo. Normally, block Fox news on their tv, block certain people or groups from their facebook, block certain websites from their wifi. If you can find where he's getting the "poison vs medicine" stuff, make it harder for that stuff to reach him.
      2. Introduce new social groups. Most people fall into conspiracy theories, cults, and bigotry rabbit holes out of loneliness. Get him to join hobby groups with you or go to sports games together. Make him spend time around normal people who are good influences.
      3. Be concerned. If he says something crazy, act like it was a strange, nonsensical thing that no one in their right mind would say. "Are you okay? Do you have a fever? You sound really weird right now, did you hit your head?" Genuine concern is one of the few things that can get past the instinct to fight anyone who disagrees. It doesn't always work, but it's better than a yelling match.

    @dani.5087 Рік тому +2829

    The rate at which bones decay is actually a HUGE point of frustration for paleontologists because it means we have very very little material from dinosaurs that lived in, for example, mountainous environments--there's not much sediment deposition in those places, much less to the degree required for fossilization, so there are entire gaps in the fossil record that are just genuinely impossible to know. A dinosaur that died out in the open *would* be gone within decades--but a dinosaur that was immediately buried in a shallow ashy lake would be preserved down to the last feather.

      Idk a lot about paleontology but I did grow up with hunters. Since antlers are another form of bone growth and so mineral rich, they're almost always completely consumed within a week or 2. Usually by small rodents or vermen. Depending on the decomp of said animal- bones, especially dense marrow filled- one can be gone in as little as a month. If I'm correct, that's part of the reason fossils are much more common to unearth than bones because they have to go thru preservation type environmental factors somewhat quickly. Most times, things like horns and shells are better preserved because they're formed with keratin and won't be consumed bc that's basically the equivalent of eating hair or nails.

      She may be a little confused but she was clearly talking about all the fiber optic cable under the ocean that connects different continents.
      The question is dumb not because "haha internet and ocean funny!!" but because her question implies that the ocean doesn't have different depths lol

      For the exact same reason so many people claimed (and still do claim, for some reason) that there are living dinosaurs in places like the Congo. it's a place that is hard to traverse, and it is easy to make things up about the creatures and people that live there, since very few have the resources to fact check them. anything that isn't well known is a hotbed for conspiracies and people looking to further their agenda (same thing applies to things like the pyramids in Egypt, and early archaeological sights like gobekli tepe and so on. these aren't things most people can easily visit themselves, especially here in America)
      with Antarctica it's conspiracy theorists, and for the Congo it's religious zealots who think proving dinosaurs live in the dense jungles will prove young earth creationism, somehow.
      Unknowns are scary, and some people would rather just make things up than ask a scientist, I guess.
      never understood why people make things up, when the Congo river and it's ecology, and practically everything surrounding Antarctica is already so interesting. You could spend your whole life exploring it and wouldn't discover everything there is to see. I suppose their preconceptions just make it hard to see these places for what they really are.

      Although I know it ended up being a historic myth, I find it more believable that people in the 1400s believed the earth was flat despite the calculations than in 2024. Like back then the general consensus that the earth was round was accepted because of the discovery of a circumference in the 3rd century. And they had never seen earth’s surface from space before.
      Meanwhile today we have orbital photography, plenty of missions to space by both humans and probes and satellites. And we also live in the a time where information can travel worldwide in a matter of seconds. And yet there are still people who think the world is flat?

    My childhood best friend turned into one of these people.

She would say things like “you just don’t understand what’s really out there.” And when I’d ask her to tell me she would shut down and say I’m too weak minded to understand. I ended up having to walk away from our friend group soon after. She’s fully antivax, moon landing is fake, all that now at a conservative college. It’s hard to watch.

And in order to keep that secret all the governments in the world got together and made it illegal for anyone to go near Antarctica, so that we can never catch a glimpse of the other side. It is, of course, not actually illegal to go to Antarctica, but if they say it is then they never have to try going there to prove their claims.

    15:45 That's essentially the textbook definition of the Dunning-Kruger effect. You are absolutely correct. Most people only remember the "the less you know, the more confident you are" but the explanation for WHY this is the case is because people take knowledge of one thing and incorrectly relate it to something else. Such as, "bones decay within 30 years" is correct. "People are not finding dinosaur bones" is also correct. "Dinosaurs did not exist" is incorrect. Just because people aren't finding dinosaur bones doesn't mean dinosaurs did not exist: "People are finding dinosaur fossils" is correct. The less you know about the topic, the less you are able to judge how well you know it.

I'm THE most outdoorsy of anyone I know, go on regular hikes off trail, and *I* haven't dug a hole in 20 years, probably longer. Why would you expect someone to find a fossil when most of us are sedentary, live in cities, and have no reason to dig holes? The most common fossil found by normal people is river or beach situations, which still requires you know how to identify one, and to actively be picking up and inspecting what look like rocks.

      Any bones/remains that made it this far without being discovered would obviously have to exist in very specific conditions and in most cases would be BURIED. they're definitely something you need to be specifically looking for in order to find them, and it's not easy to do. As you mentioned, the only ones "out in the open" would have to be washed up somewhere and in most cases they'd be indistinguishable from a rock to the average person walking past it.

The Tartaria stuff that Jarvis briefly looked up is all about this nonsense. Unfortunately he didn't go deep enough into the Wiki page to see all the madness. There are a lot of very funny Tartaria videos where people go to old buildings and claim they were partially covered in the mud flood because there are windows in the basement floors. In reality it's quite common for the street level to be raised over the past century to help with flooding, so you see windows that are below the sidewalk level for example.

    "Submarine cables are laid on the sea and ocean floor using cable laying ships, which are specially designed seagoing vessels that can be over 500 feet (150 meters) long.

    The irony of a woman with dyed hair, a full face of make-up, nail extensions, nail polish, clothing, in a house, and is using a smartphone saying that "everything man-made is fake" is so fucking wild to me.

      There’s nothing wrong with any of those things either, but it’s just an extreme lack of self awareness

    I just realized that modern conspiracy theories are very similar to ancient mythology. hear me out they come up with an explanation for something they don't understand that makes sense to them and they share it to others for them to also understand what's going on even though its not what causes it. The biggest difference is that conspiracies are conspiracies and not mythology, because we do know what causes the things they are trying to explain so they are just wrong.When mythology was created, they legit had no idea.

      I’ve come to a similar conclusion myself, except that; I believe even in ancient times, the power systems that existed were fully aware of the fictional nature of what they preached to the masses, and believed very correctly so, that the masses were incapable of understanding, much less accepting, the truth or more specifically, the lack thereof.

    I love how she omitted people living and just visiting whole world, existence of maps, governments other than US and even space agencies other than NASA in one short tiktok 🤣 And then insisting wi-fi is internet, whole ocean floor mapping and countless expeditions. I can't even
