Even if it were true that we came from aliens… every race can reproduce with one another. If we all came to earth for survival, then race mixing creates better outcomes through genetic variation.

What a strange take.

You assume they understand genetics and evolution.

When I was in high school, I heard someone say “I don’t know why poverty exists when we can just 3d print money”. What the 3d has to do with this, I do not know

I’ve seen so many dog shit/brain dead takes on Reddit about various topics that I don’t think I can even remember any of them specifically.

So instead, I’m choosing this take on climate change by Ben Shapiro.

It doesn’t matter what side of this argument you fall on. Who is buying a house in an area that is slowly being flooded?

Did you honestly not understand what he means?

I don’t think anyone understands what he means, least of all himself.

Also he needs to Google “straw man”.

How is that meme not a straw man?

For example one that’s baffled me was someone saying they don’t believe in bad smells ??

I don’t remember it well other than it was on a tumblr blog and as they were answering an anonymous ask they just casually mentioned that with no explanation

My only ideas are either they’re filthy rich, have no sense of smell, or somehow think “bad” implies morality so they don’t believe smells can be evil which like ?? No ones claiming otherwise lmao

According to my rural-raised coworker, that submersible implosion was apparently a conspiracy.

According to him, The people aboard the sub came up with a plan to escape their debt. There was nobody aboard the submarine, and it was designed to implode as a permanent diversion.

This seems to be the least crazy of all the ones here so far. Plausible but very improbable.

Why force your child to come with you?

I do think that if you’re going to fake a death this is just about the best way to do it, though.

Maybe the just disappear like in witness protection and this dude didn’t want to leave his son alone? It’s too far fetched though. Given all the questionable things Oceangate did, independent verification of the implosion sound waves and finding the actual debris, it is extremely improbable it was staged.
