They even titled it "word magic" lol.

[-] DharkStare@lemmy.world 46 points 10 months ago

It's appropriate since they believe that words are magic and as long as they say the right words, the "spell" will be cast and they will become immune to laws.

That’s probably the most sane part about It.

I think they are saying that those Words where chosen specifically because they can subconsciously affect the words users perceptions.

Not magic nor a conspiracy but there is psychological truth that different words with identical meaning can effect us differently.

Or you know, from the old (and current) French "Parent", which itself came from the Latin "Parentem". But I guess making a quick search isn't as fun as making shit up.

[-] lemmy_get_my_coat@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago

Nah man, that doesn't sound right. See "pair rent" is much more believable. Everyone knows that these conspiracy things always need to rhyme or sound similar or have the same letters but rearranged. Not be the same word in another language, that's just bunk.

Just in case anyone is curious-

parent (n.)

early 15c. (late 12c. as a surname), "a mother or father; a forebear, ancestor," from Old French parent "father, parent, relative, kin" (11c.) and directly from Latin parentem (nominative parens) "father or mother, ancestor," noun use of present participle of parire "bring forth, give birth to, produce," from PIE root *pere- (1) "to produce, bring forth." Began to replace native elder after c. 1500. also from early 15c.

BIG GOVERNMENT has apparently been planning this since feudalism.

yes because the us government would OBVIOUSLY put in a hint in their wording if they really wanted to do that. just a little easter egg for us to discover

[-] Dieterlan@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

It's not the government doing it though. It's the secret cabal of "Dark Magicians" who secretly control the government, using the secret, 100% literal, magic of words.

This made me think about when you hear about someone who has a really high genius level IQ in the 180s or whatever; statistically, there must be someone somewhere who has an IQ as far below the average of 100 than the genius IQ is over it.

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

That's not necessarily how averages work. 80, 80, 80, 80, 100, 180.

The average is 100, but there is no "counterpart" to the 180 at the end.

EDIT: note that my sample size is way to small to perfectly describe the human population, and ~~variance~~ distribution is also impossible to represent with a sample size of 6. Obviously there ARE people way below 80 IQ; I'm just saying you can't say for sure that there must be a person around 20IQ just because one with 180 exists.

[-] sus@programming.dev 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

technically, IQ is by definition normally distributed with 100 as the center. But by the definition there would only be about 500 people in the world with an IQ of 20 or lower, so it breaks down because of the amount of people in an unrecoverable coma and such

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Also I'm pretty sure an IQ of at little as 20 would probably be impossible to measure.

"birth/berth"

They call it that as a trick to subject babies to the regulatory structures that govern ships, which essentially says that the government can commandeer you whenever they deem necessary. Oh you think you have rights? Well in the eyes of the law, you're just another skiff with a bad attitude.

Wow. A lot of talk about magic in there. Way more wiccan hippy than right wing sovcit but I guess you go far enough down the rabbit hole and they converge.

Pdf also seemed to make my CPU spike like crazy, wonder what else is embedded in there... Probably not magic

Have none of these people ever heard of etymology?

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 43 points 10 months ago

Have you ever wondered why they like to use the word etymology to describe the study of words and their origins? The word etymology sound similar to the words "A tamale, gee!," which means "A tamale you're excited about." When your pair rents signed your birth certificate, they agreed that you're a tamale.
