Attempting a Cockney accent there, ank? 😉

Just watch the video. Amazing work! As always. But how did you get through the full 20 minutes without once mentioning "What The Bleep...?" 😅

And Zelinsky made them look like absolute fools.

Blackout days are always a scam. It's classic slacktivism. Often times, these things are organized by the big chains themselves through astroturf groups, because they are not only free advertisement (people just consumption shift), they reduce people's participation in actual meaningful activism.

I had to look this up now because I was under the impression corsets were only a class thing, but apparently not. Funny enough, there's an active debate on Reddit about comparing them to bras as well. 😅

I *just* sent this video to @michaelburns.bsky.social before seeing your post here. Sorry, I forgot to tag you in my post to him.

Heels? 👠👠

It's mainly excess media coverage chasing people's short term interest in the subject. Same thing happened after the East Palestine train derailment.

But also...

Fake taking a phone call and then directly respond to random things they say and when they try to engage with you be like, "I'm sorry, I'm on the phone."

Lemme guess: Crypto bros in the wild, eh? 😂

I've spent the better part of the past 3 years researching and taking detailed notes this very topic, so I can certainly get overly pedantic and often speak past people without adequately connecting dots sometimes, and for that I apologize. My brain is oversaturated with this stuff rn.

And if you're curious who the "short-tempered potty mouth" whose very behavior and comportment in life further reinforces my thesis rather than refutes it, all while thoughtlessly, almost intentionally, missing my original point entirely is, I'll refer you to this exchange:

Thus, it's incorrect to characterize my position as "generically antitheist" as one short-tempered potty mouth tried to do. My position is anti-fundamentalist.

I am an Ecumenical Deist. I welcome & embrace all theistic traditions, but only to the degree to which they comport with reasoned morality.

I DO maintain, however, that today, the further a religion turns away from reason & towards credulously believing demonstrable untruths ("fundamentalism") the less moral outcomes can be expected. The rise of White Supremacy / Christian Nationalism in the U.S. and the genocide in Gaza being examples.
