Short comment:
Does the LHC explain emotions?

Long comment:
Perhaps there are other “forces” in the universe than physical forces. For example what is faith but a non-physical force? And yet it drives people to feel certain ways and do certain things. Same goes for love.

Just like the placebo effect there are many things that affect a person internally even though externally they don’t appear to be doing anything.

If something so simple as wearing a bracelet brings balance to someone’s troubled mind then I don’t see the issue nor do I see the reason to argue about it on the internet.

Now, all that being said, these products are just a grift. We lost the plot when we went from
“pretty rock that eases my mind because I get dopamine from looking at it”
to
“this rock has magical powers and you should buy it because of that”.

Conclusion: people are allowed to feel spiritual and psychological connections with things and it is wrong to take advantage of those feelings for profit.

Thanks for sharing!

Yes

Hot take but i agree with Plato on the first half. People are too dumb, blind, and easily manipulated for a democracy.
But obviously a benevolent, kind, and uncoercible king with the interests of the people at heart is not realistic.

I dont have a solution. 🤷‍♂️

They don’t but people dont care about what things actually mean. See: “i could care less” meaning they don’t care which makes no sense.

Just like crypto was/is. It’s just the next tech thing.

i actually love this.
the only problem being any connotations made to the original characters.

What’s the opposite of a black hole?
