Dude went to see Barbie a second time to seethe about feminism. Entirely missed Openheimer. "Too long, too sciency."

[-] sxan@midwest.social 74 points 5 months ago

Curse you. You stole my outtake.

"In other news, Carlson fell asleep ten minutes in to Oppenheimer, and Barbie made him uncomfortable."

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 23 points 5 months ago

He saw Barbie and thought it needed more spanking.

Demon cores aren't literal.

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 131 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

In case anyone wants the answer, it's late December 1938, when two physicists went for a walk in the snow near Stockholm to discuss findings a colleague sent via letter.

Given Tucker's views on women, I don't see a discrepancy

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 17 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Eh, I don't even want to give credence to Carlson's garbage by repeating it. But even if we imagine Otto Frisch was somehow there alone making drawings in the snow, we still know when it happened.

Of course we shouldn't do that. Meitner was by far the more experienced scientist and expert on the topic.

Been a lot of "demon" talk from him lately. Tucker's literally turning into Alex Jones before our very eyes.

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 77 points 5 months ago

I have never met a person who can isolate the moment when Tucker Carlson became Alex Jones. So, where did it come from exactly? ...it's very clear to me both are demons.

"I have never met a person who can..."

Who the hell are Becquerel or the Curies!?

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 46 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

This is a technique of theirs "I've never met _____, therefore ____."

[-] ShaggyBlarney@lemmy.ca 28 points 5 months ago

Everybody knows Marie Curie was a woman and woman's contributions to science just don't exist or even register. Women scientists are literally the devil. /s

[-] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 16 points 5 months ago

Marie Curie didn't discover fission; that was Lise Meitner and her nephew Otto Frisch and colleague Otto Hahn. But yeah, same problem. Meitner was left out of the publications and overlooked for a Nobel Prize.

Can’t tell if real or satire

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 52 points 5 months ago

My default now is to assume it's real. Haven't been wrong lately.

[-] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 51 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

How most dumb people reason.

I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it's not real.

If i dont know, nobody knows.

Of course not. That would require him acknowledging women in science. That would be Marie Curie.

[-] kmaismith@lemm.ee 15 points 5 months ago

Maybe he is insinuating that women are demons

The real question is: and????
So we're harvesting demonic forces to power our shit?
That's fuckin' metal duuuuude. If you're trying to make nuclear sound bad you failed.

Ah yes, the ol’ “if I don’t know something, then it MUST be X” argument.

Substitute X for whatever ya like! Demons, ghouls, demon ghouls…the possibilities are endless!

Wasn't there a big budget biopic on Oppenheimer that released last year?

I can't recall the name of it... But it was for sure centered on Oppenheimer while he helped develop nuclear fission weapons.

If anyone can remember the name of that biopic that focused on Oppenheimer, please let me know, it's killing me.

[-] JackRiddle@sh.itjust.works 27 points 5 months ago

Looking at the content of the message and the name of the source, I thought this had to be satire. But the site seems to be an actual news site, and other news sites corroborate the story. Which brings me to the question I wanted to ask:

What the fuck‽

It's well documented that Tucker doesn't believe the things he says. He's just saying things for money.

Leave it to religions to get insanely mad about characters and beliefs they made up. It's such a dumb fucking thing. Then blame everything on "demons". Big talk for someone coming from the one country that literally committed warcrimes with nuclear technology.

Richard Rhodes' The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a great book that kind of explains all that in detail...

but i would say it is either the Curie's experiments, discovering the neutron, splitting the atom, Fermi's reactor, or the tests during the Manhattan project; all really well documented.
