any claps? 👏

Except for those flat-earth guys who started doing actual research with lasers and gyroscopes, proving that the earth really is round and rotating, too.
Are you talking about the same team that then refused to accept their own results and are still trying to prove the world is flat?
I remember that for the doc. I think part of the reason they don’t want to accept the truth is because the community and friends they made along the way in believing this bat shit crazy stuff. Someone should make a post flat earthers group. Shit add Scientology and any other crazy cult type behavior.
My theory is we are very easily susceptible to friendly groups that accept us because we want that community. That idea that we have a lack of a “3rd place” after work and home creates a desire to connect on a different level. The details of believing the earth is flat, Trump is the second coming, or the anti-vaxers don’t matter as much to some people as being around others and being accepted.
This meme is correct because I think the exact same thing! 😉
There are some of the social science fields that the whole academic world revolves around this mindset 😮💨
The latest version of Dirk Gently has an episode where the Pentagon is desperately searching for the most powerful computer program on Earth.
You type in your conclusion, say “I want to invade Switzerland” and the program will search the entire interwebs to come up with a logical, fact based analysis that explains why it’s a reasonable thing to do.
latest version of dirk gently? what? where? I needs to know! I’ve only seen couple seasons from netflix. you know the dirk gentlys holistic detective agency
The one I mentioned is a 2010 series from the BBC I just saw on BritBox streaming service.
I saw that one after I saw the 2016 version with Elijah Wood.
So the older version was ‘new’ to me.
Sorry for any confusion.
It is mentioned on the second season of the Netflix one, but it is more relevant in the books, and the UK version AFAIK.
