That fluoride makes people stupid.

That humans only contribute like 0.2% of greenhouse gases and have no impact in climate change.

That petroleum is a natural renewable mode of transportation that doesn’t come from dinasaurs

And that science is not reliable because people just say “trust the science” but get made when you “question the science” and that he doesn’t trust what he can’t replicate

And that NASA just lies and was founded by NAZIs so they just do nothing and collect government money

What is crazy to me is that this guy is great at his job and has got me unstuck from coding related problems several times. Yet, he believes in all these conspiracies 😵

I considered this guy to be smart and yet he gave me this ackward conspiracy info dump session

    I vaguely remember reading something about how oil probably won’t form again, because things evolved that’ll just decompose the plants too quickly.

    Did I invent this inside my brain?

      Wherever you read that was wrong, most of our oil is found in rock layers dating back to the mezozoic

      What oil needs to form is decomposition in an low oxygen environment while surrounded by non-permeable rock (normally salt)

      An algae bloom in a shallow sea or salt water lake could fill those conditions.
