I’m a huge space nerd. I did also appreciate the visuals and realistic portrayal of time dilation, and should have noted that (though it may have diluted my opinion a bit?). I just didn’t like the actual movie itself.

Interstellar is a terrible movie that doesn’t say or do anything special and I still don’t understand why anyone thinks it’s so amazing.

I did really like the robot guy though.

Here’s how you actually “manipulate the algorithm.”

1: take up residency in the comments, and at the same time start a few basic accts that don’t say anything too controversial (day in the life kinda stuff, thirst traps, etc). Establish a basic presence

2: once you amass a following, you start with pretty basic stuff lots of young people agree with - housing/healthcare reform, work reform, etc

3: an important part a lot of people miss - have your own team troll your comments. Stir up shit. The goal is to get people riled up, not move the needle in any specific direction

4: throw out something big (it’s been confirmed that Russia is behind distribution on TikTok of OBL’s “Letter to America” recently). Fight on both sides, tagging in as much of the greater sphere of commenters as you can.

That’s it. That’s all anyone’s doing. Just do this over and over and you eventually drive people crazy.

They did the exact same thing in 2016, they did it in 2020 with BLM, they did it with Ukraine. It’s nothing new

It was the 50s they’d have been used to car adjustments. This was THE AGE for small- adjustment businesses

I do not believe it is likely enough to happen that I feel the need to defend myself with a weapon at all times.

My life isn’t ruled by fear. This is my original point here.

Depends on which fight you’re talking about. All of the above for me, including people pulling someone off. I’ve also been the guy pulled off a downed person.

Most people won’t be trying to kill you. Anger vents quickly

Yes I was bullied til I had my big growth spurt when I hit college. I have most definitely been jumped

Buddy I have most assuredly lost fights before.

And yes, I bet on the 99.99% all the time. as you so notably mentioned about cars, they’re far riskier than just about any fight you’d ever realistically get in.

I’ve been in multiple car accidents as well. I still drive cars L.

Conservatism is wholly driven by irrational fear so this makes perverse sense.
