This is a link post James Burke's Connections - Episode 1
The first 20 minutes are enough to have tinfoil hat merchants rubbing one off in glee!

Otherwise, it's just a blast from my geeky pasty. Loved this show when I was a wee'un, and all the more cause his name is Burke.

Hahaha! BURKE!

(, Fri 18 Sep 2020, 20:15, Reply)
This is a normal post Oh, I slung plenty of them at you with my other account too.
I'm using this one now, didn't realise how much switching accounts would confuse /links denizens, but there you go.

"you shouldn't confuse self-righteousness for simply being right about something bloody obvious" - ah, but there it is. It (i.e. wearing a specific kind of mask) may have been bloody obvious to you, but for the wrong reasons. The fact that some random boffin you happened to latch on to turned out to be right doesn't validate your approach. Plenty of other boffins said other things, and the ones who happened to be right don't automatically become Jesus and make their followers disciples.

Scientists are often wrong. Then they try to prove themselves wrong - and that's important, they try to prove themselves *wrong*, not *right*. If they can't prove themselves wrong, they propose this to the scientific community, and wait for someone else to prove them wrong. If nobody does, a consensus emerges that they might be right, until someone *does* prove them wrong.

You watched a video on YouTube and then lectured everyone on how clever and self-educated and superior you were. That your chosen position ended up (months later, after lots more evidence-gathering) to have some merit is irrelevant, and doesn't change the fact that you're a clueless idiot who happened to get lucky.

As I said before, it wasn't your message that attracted such widespread derision and abuse - it was the arrogance with which you presented it. And then you keep coming back to snipe about, even six months later. It's fucking pathetic, and THAT is what you really need to get over, for your own sake.

Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.

You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.
