Bullshit. Don't blame voters for Biden risking handing the forever keys to the country to the fucking Nazis just to protect a genocide. Some people have actual principles and if one of those principles is to not vote for a guy that arms and funds a genocide, don't you fucking dare blaming them. This is on Biden and his handlers thinking it was a jolly fine strategy trying to manufacture enough consent for a genocide among Democrats and Independents to win an election. The obvious weak link is that genocide is a bit of a hard sell to non fascists, in case you didn't realize.

Many democrats and independents will still do their duty and vote for Biden, but many simply can't or won't vote for a pro genocide politician even if the alternative is so much worse. Some things simply can't stand and consequences be damned, you know? Conservatives feel that shit over stuff like trans people needing to use the bathroom and naughty books, but genocide is one of those things that can make even a Democrat put their foot down. I mean, who could have figured the woke brigade was against genocide? Camp Biden surely didn't.

To summarize, Biden shot a big gaping hole in his own foot and you are blaming the voters for his almost inevitable loss in the upcoming foot race? Is that about right? I can almost see him aiming at the other foot right now, thinking more speed holes will give him an edge.

Of course I'm not the first to think about it and of course I'm not as smart as many, or most of those guys. But if you put up a grand model that's largely unsubstantiated too early and everyone and their dog runs with it, you create a bias to try and prove it and more resources will be added to that than to find alternative explanations that night also fit the data. That is basically my gripe with dark matter as a name for the discrepancy between observable matter and "invisible" matter. It is too ad hoc, mostly added to try and save as much as possible of present understanding of how shit works. Must've stepped on a toe there, chief.

I really shouldn't feed the trolls, but I have to ask - is she hot or is she a used up tramp like your mum?

Or the aether or the flat earth model. I know all this, but I still believe it is a bad and lazy model that stopped a lot of people from trying to find something else that could explain what we're seeing, or not seeing actually. There is too much gravity, yes. What could produce that effect? Shit we aren't seeing, dark matter, sure. But what if there's no 'extra' matter? What other thing could produce the appearance of too much matter? Is time changing in some way we don't know? Is light slowing down/going faster due to the expansion? Is there something else that we thinks is constant that is actually changing over time? Should I really smoke this much? I don't know any of this obviously but I have a distinct feeling we are missing something with 'dark matter' as a model. I get why we use it, but I don't like it. When we create a model, we fix it in our minds and it is very hard to break free from that mindset. Look what it took before we accepted that time is relative. What else is relative? What, besides mass, aren't we seeing?

I'm aware we'll never find the bottom truth, whatever that may be, it's only better and better models. Sometimes though, the model chosen by the scientific community isn't really a good one, despite fitting most of the data. I think dark matter, like the aether(spelling?), is one of those models. Again, I base this solely on the clunky, ad hoc feeling of the dark matter model and not of anything more substantial than that. If I'm wrong and they manage to find a chunk of dark matter I'm fine with that. The chunk part was a joke, btw, I'll settle for detection or proof of existence.

Yeah, "plausible" was the wrong word to use. Maybe "more elegant"? Then again, the truth (not that there is one, precisely) isn't always elegant.

They wouldn't do that. They'd ban them, cuz only libtards are cowardly and gay enough to use them. Or something. I hate this timeline.

Nah, this meme is much older than that, prolly where they got the joke from if last week's episode is new. (Never seen the show so have no idea, myself)
