Nuclear Demonology
(lemmy.world)
this is like 80% the plot of Johnathan Hickman and Nick Pitarra's The Manhattan Projects unironically
Enrico motherfucking Fermi, motherfuckers.
That is a PERFECT representation for the God of the Gaps fallacy. Like dude hit the definition right on the head gosh dang.
That guy IS a demon. He is prentending not to know for manipulative reasons.Same kind of rat as the blond UK fuckface, you know the one.
Bore is
Richard Rhodes' The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a great book that kind of explains all that in detail...
but i would say it is either the Curie's experiments, discovering the neutron, splitting the atom, Fermi's reactor, or the tests during the Manhattan project; all really well documented.
I think that maybe losing his job at fox news phased him more than he let on
He expected to be his own brand, like Musk or Trump or Limbaugh. When he realized he was still just another faceless interchangeable mouthpiece, that definitely fucked his ego.
Wasn't there a big budget biopic on Oppenheimer that released last year?
I can't recall the name of it... But it was for sure centered on Oppenheimer while he helped develop nuclear fission weapons.
If anyone can remember the name of that biopic that focused on Oppenheimer, please let me know, it's killing me.
There was a really big popular movie last year, I think it was called "The Barbie Movie"
I am 99% sure that film was called "Lise Meitner"
No i believe it was the one called "Big Explodey"
The splitting of the atom was only referenced in a single line in that movie and it wasn’t Oppenheimer who did it. Then Fermi’s first nuclear reactor was only briefly mentioned in one scene. Oppenheimer developed the nuclear bomb specifically.
So you clearly missed the point of the exercise, thank you for debating all the minutia of my joke to me.
Have a great day!

What is a nuclear bomb but a single-use, disposable nuclear reactor?
Oh well sure lol.
But if you want to isolate “The moment nuclear technology became known to man”, the splitting of the atom or the reactor that was built before the atom bomb are probably what you’re going to go with.
World's most clueless man
Most well paid clueless man, maybe
Yeah, would love to see him, Eric Weinstein, Terrence Howard, Eric dubay, James tour, and Billy Carlson stuck in a room that they can't leave until they can prove one of their worldviews to be plausible. Would be the most entertaining thing ever watching them argue while pretending they agree with each other bc they have to pretend they are all thinking the same thing or their whole "mainstream academia" thing falls apart.
Of course not. That would require him acknowledging women in science. That would be Marie Curie.
Maybe he is insinuating that women are demons
He nay be insinuating that jews are demons. Many of the most famous early nuclear scientists were jewish.

I’m not defending Tucker here but no it was not Marie Curie.
Well you have the guy who found uranium, the guy who ran electricity through a vacuum, the guy who found pitchblende, and then Marie Curie who did the experiments with refined pitchblende to create X-ray machines.
If you want to talk specifically about nuclear energy and weapons then you're probably looking for Rutherford. But he wouldn't even be conducting those experiments without Curie, Röntgen, and Becquerel.
Either Rutherford or Fermi are who you’d probably credit for that given moment.
The thing is X-rays are absolutely nuclear science too.
Are they though? X-rays are emitted by electrons, not nuclei. They’re like, nuclear technology-adjacent. But if you had to pick just one moment in time, that moment is not x-ray technology

The real question is: and????
So we're harvesting demonic forces to power our shit?
That's fuckin' metal duuuuude. If you're trying to make nuclear sound bad you failed.
This is how you get modern Doom
TFW you're 13 and your dreams are coming true
He's an psychopathic idiot who laughs like a maniac on speed. I'm pretty sure his idea of research is "I spent 15 minutes not understanding the wiki."
He's talking to evangelicals who react when you use the word "demonic" about anything. They hold great political sway, and they have proven that they will go against their own moral interests to nurture their political interests.
Case in point, watch them get in line to vote for Trump today, despite him being the antithesis of evangelical behavior and values.
Pakleds: "Tucker Carlson is smart. He makes the news go."
How most dumb people reason.
I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it's not real.
If i dont know, nobody knows.

more anti science rhetoric
I've got the impression that Tucker Carlson is going after Alex Jones his audience. Tucker Carlson peddling crazy conspiracy theories right when the chickens are coming home to roost for Alex Jones, imo that's no coincidence. Tucker never was stupid, he just has no morals, so he never had a problem with publicly stating stuff that he personally didn't believe in. Grifters gonna grift.

HOLY FUCK! HAS ANYONE TOLD JAMES CLERK MAXWELL?!
Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. Oppenheimer
Btw, Demon Core
Edit: right, nuclear technology, not nukes. See Marie Curie.
It's like toothpaste, how does it work? When was it invented? Clearly demons at play!
My son when he was 6 probably.
Oppenheimer, Einstein, Bohr. What is this guy smoking? Wait, wasn't this guy a news anchor not too long ago? Can people this stupid and uneducated really make it as a news anchor!?

Looking at the content of the message and the name of the source, I thought this had to be satire. But the site seems to be an actual news site, and other news sites corroborate the story. Which brings me to the question I wanted to ask:
What the fuck‽

How convenient it would be to believe that the immense forces of destruction we are capable of did not originate with us
