7G turns ppl in to animals when they hit puberty and other wacky stuff

[–] lauha@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

But humans are animals?? Do we turn into different kind of animal?

[–] frongt@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 hours ago

Did you ever read Animorphs? It's like that, but whenever you get an incoming call.

[–] BurgerBaron@quokk.au 3 points 14 hours ago

No, 7G only gets rid of the human superiority complex.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 1 points 15 hours ago

Yes, like raccoons, bears, red pants, bush baby. It might if been when they turn 18 or something.

Would be so fun if we all switched at the same time

Instantaneously? I wonder what kind of noise would be made by the simultaneous formation of billions of vacuums and pressure waves? And how loud would it be on aggregate? And would it be enough to wake those who were asleep at the time?

It'll sound like a low rumbling of bubble wrap shifting across the lands.

I don't think there would be much of a pressure change. All the outies would become innie lowering the pressure and all the innies becoming outies would bring it back up.

Maybe your ears might pop.

Most animals are smaller than humans. If it's selected randomly out of unique species then definitely, because there are a fuckton of insects.

I wonder if the people has believed the 5g conspiracy fantasies feel remotely foolish

Obviously are intellectually and or mentally diverse so maybe this was just one more inevitable step to total downfall

They don't. In fact, they don't believe they were wrong. They've cherry-picked their array of half-truths and benign or unprovable conspiracy theories and have never reevaluated since. Or they've morphed their beliefs into cheap versions of the nonsense they once took as true.

Even with the covid vaccine conspiracy theories. They were saying that everyone who took the vaccine would die.

To maintain their "rightness", when questioned, they will point to the statistics of the non-zero number of people who did die from taking the vaccine.

When pointed out that the actual number is much closer to 0 than the 100% that they had been saying in 2021 or so, they will argue that there's a coverup or something. Or that they didn't literally mean 100% of people.

Obviously they meant whatever would make them right. Some people can hardly fathom the fact that they believed something to be incorrect.
