Depends on the Voltage and Amperage.
You could do a test. Screw in a 40watt light bulb; break the glass; lick your fingers and touch either side of the filaments. Report back to us your findings.

If you're touching either side of the filaments on a 40 watt bulb
you will receive power of considerably greater than 40 watts, since you're essentially bypassing the bulb and plugging yourself directly into the mains.

There are a shitload of sites out there where the "reject cookies" option is either unclickable or non functional (easily monitored by clearing cookies just before visiting and checking the list again immediately afterwards. If you really care that much).
Or the page requires 20 minutes worth of trawling through an itemised list of vendors on/off switches because they quite deliberately don't include a "reject all" button. Or there's the old "Don't worry, you can opt out of all this again by visiting this third party advertising preferences site."
Other than "just don't go on 95% of the internet", what do you suggest?

I did it by eye, the old fashioned way. It probably shows tbh. Just panning over a background, as in the Aliens example. I did a bit of research into analogue star backgrounds for anyone interested - on Star Wars they actually had a painted black dome structure with "star" holes made to draw in light, effectively like a Victorian planetarium, which they would move the camera around inside. Very effective. Can't find any pics of it, mind

I'm not in the habit of googling such things at work.
And remember, the onus for providing evidence is always on the one making the claim, not the listener that they're trying to convince.
I'll check those out later and give you a proper response.
Edit: I have checked those out.
The first link is barely even about the guy at all; it mentions his comments only to frame them in terms of an inaccurate interpretation by a specific Vox journalist. It then heads off on a tangent about ultra-conservative politics in the 1970s and earlier (which is what the article is actually about). Milo's name is quite clearly just being used as clickbait in that article.
The second link is indeed relevant. And very clearly shows that his comments were a good deal more nuanced than that.
