That fluoride makes people stupid.
That humans only contribute like 0.2% of greenhouse gases and have no impact in climate change.
That petroleum is a natural renewable mode of transportation that doesn’t come from dinasaurs
And that science is not reliable because people just say “trust the science” but get made when you “question the science” and that he doesn’t trust what he can’t replicate
And that NASA just lies and was founded by NAZIs so they just do nothing and collect government money
What is crazy to me is that this guy is great at his job and has got me unstuck from coding related problems several times. Yet, he believes in all these conspiracies 😵
I considered this guy to be smart and yet he gave me this ackward conspiracy info dump session
I had an electrical engineer who works in semiconductors tell me that Bill Gates was putting chips in the vaccine. I was so stunned I couldn't make a coherent response.
Engineer-brains can come up with the stupidest shit. Like, of course you could make a chip small enough to do that, but the real questions they didn't ask themselves were: "Why?" "For what purpose?" "What features would a chip that small even have?" "How far away could you be and reliably communicate with something that small attenuated by inconsistent depths of soft tissue?"
New conspiracy theory: Bill Gates created the microchips-in-the-vaccine conspiracy theory so when you google "bill gates vaccine" you get that instead of his patent shenanigans.
That's just true, though
