▲ 260 ▼ Go woke, get rich: why rightwing hate campaigns don’t affect the box office (www.theguardian.com) submitted 2 days ago by moderatecentrist@feddit.uk to c/world@lemmy.world 84 comments fedilink hide all child comments This article is basically about right-wingers getting angry about The Odyssey while the film has done very well at the box office. Maybe some right-wing people just like getting angry when there's really not much reason to get angry.
[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago (1 child) what about people with healthy brains? Well, I literally said it was in another comment already.... https://lemmy.world/post/49973823/24987459 Now, personally if someone said that, and I didn't see it... I would assume it was because for some reason I couldn't see the comments from the other person. So I would sign out, and then be able to see the comments. If you still have questions after reading that comment and that study, no worries Take a deep breath, remember I'm not arguing with anyone, I'm explaining scientifically repeatable experiments, and ask your questions. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] OfCourseNot@fedia.io 8 points 2 days ago (2 children) I was just taking a look at that. Well, not the article but the actual study it links... Don't get so sassy, I think asking someone not only to read a scientific article to answer to your comment but also to go to the other comments to read another is a bit too much to ask. But I've done it anyway... and now I'm doubting that you did read them. From this second article: No differences in Anterior Cingulate Cortex volume replicated between levels of conservatism - in contrast to the original study self-reported ideology (single item) was not a significant predictor of amygdalar volume. So you take a deep breath and read more carefully what you post before making bullshit assertions like 'With like two minutes of training, anyone can identify political affiliation almost instantly from a brain scan, with over 70% accuracy...'. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] ewo@piefed.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 child) Correct, this very much sounds like pseudo-science. I don't even need to read the studies, all I know is that any self-respecting academic/scientist would call this out for the horseshite it is. If I didn't know better, it's a facist in a trenchcoat. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world -2 points 2 days ago (1 child) I don’t even need to read the studies Well, that was obvious already... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ewo@piefed.ca 2 points 2 days ago Yeah I don't read psuedo-horseshite.

Personally I think it's an entitled opinion to ask the same question some one else already has and expect a bespoke answer... Agree to disagree I guess Best of luck finding someone else to answer your questions. Frankly, it doesn't matter to me that much if you understand, I was just trying to help you, and clearly you don't want any help. And don't forget, you started with: Wake up, babe!

No one is asking you for your long-winded explanations. It feels like the only reason you're giving them is so you can tell everyone else how stupid they are for not having the specific degree and experience you do.
