You are being trolled, this person made a humongous ruckus and pissed everybody off, and insulted everybody, and is acting like he has no idea what's going on.

If anybody was a candidate to be permanently nuked from the internet, it's people like the guy you're responding to.

It's not an easy job being a moderator, no matter how egregious the behavior is, it's always a difficult decision.

I think though this user has pretty convincingly revealed their underlying motivations, by way of their various posts and their behavior therein.

I was checking the "strength" post in a weird voyeuristic way, just to see the downvotes and look at the squabbling.

Each time I came back, I noticed that they had completely revised the entire post content, along with many of their comments.

The entire thing reeked of bait, trolling, mean-spirited sarcasm... All blended with what seemed to be, at least to me, a very bizarre fixation and fetish-like fascination about a specific topic.

For all the extremely valid criticism Reddit gets, at the very least one of the things they did rock-solid was giving moderators tools to deal with users who were acting in bad faith or outright abusively. For example, they made it extremely easy to automatically filter posts from untrusted new users until they had passed a certain threshold, or other ways to limit their exposure until they had established themselves as part of the community.

I'm not sure how robust, or even what set of tools you have available on this platform.

Whatever you can do to help us participants of this community, I know that I would personally thank you and appreciate it. Sometimes the answer is to ignore these people though, not necessarily bans, because in a way that gives these social deviants what they're after in the first place.

It's time to ban this person.

I'm not trying to criticize OP

But I have seen this posted over and over again, and I really don't understand why it is capturing people's attention.

Another commenter here pointed out that it's mystical pseudoscience, and it has no relevancy to anything. (Ed: Unless you want to fund future research and how to create undead soldiers /s)

There's really no mystery to what happens when a human dies or any other creature for that matter, various electrical impulses continue in various ways, then the creature dies.

As a kid, we used to go along the train tracks and pick up pieces of coal that tumbled out of the cars.

Coal heating was very common especially in the more remote regions of my area, until the late '70s.

These are neither popular opinions, nor unpopular opinions.

They're not even opinions. Your personal taste preference is not an opinion.

The same way you fix a car, first you figure out what's wrong, then you fix it.

I don't even understand the question, really.

The more reproductive health care becomes unavailable, the less sex men will get.

I think we'd be fucked, basically.

It's not a joke to take an unnecessary cheap shot at somebody who's already suffering homelessness and is at the end of their rope.

I don't know why you think that's funny, or why mocking childhood SA is funny.

I gave up on DoDonPachi. Same thing, 20 years of just grinding and sticking with it, even did the classic "final final true boss has one hit point and I choke" move.

Now I'm 49, my reactions will never be what they were when I was younger, the dream is over.

I have a feeling it is all-but-guaranteed that most of the world's digital knowledge will be erased overnight during the next event such as this one...

Check out the Carrington Event of 1859.

It's like you didn't read the article, and are specifically focusing on a one-dimensional argument while you can conveniently ignore the greater issues at play.

Go and read your own comments, in fact go read the article, and please try to come back with some meaningful thoughts.

My grandfather continually underscored to me that no matter what you try to do, even if it is a failure so to speak, you have learned. And you can carry what you've learned into your next effort, and be that much more strong and powerful. There is no shame in trying to invent something and discover that you are wrong, or start a business and not have it succeed, or try to approach something in a novel way and have it fall flat. That is the essence of how we learn and discover and grow.

Furthermore he taught me that you need to let people show you how to do things that you already know how to do. Everybody out there has a piece of priceless gold that they're just willing to hand to you, and all you have to do is be willing to listen. And accept that while we may know how to do something, there's always a better way.

I'm with you my friend.

Personally I can't even relate when I hear people talking about how a game made them cry or how it changed their life.

Writing in games is largely trash. Vapid and expositional, cliche-driven pablum.

Even The Witcher isn't good.

Oh no, it seems to predict everything perfectly.

You just have to accept that the known universe is actually a 5D holographic projection on a the inner curve of a 7D frisbee that is floats through an unbounded, dimensionless 11D space that can somehow also expand.

Edit: also that there are infinity solutions to every problem. So tidy and elegant 😌

The hilarious thing about the crackpot index is that almost ALL of it applies to credible physicists.

Physics is in a really dirty place right now, where fundamental "truths" are exploding before our eyes and the "religion" of established physics has become inertial to real growth.

We still have people who will not accept that deep at it's core, SR is broken and QM has torn off the mask of illusion. We have new JWST data that shows the Big Bang probably never happened and the universe isn't expanding the way it has been previously thought.

Physics is in a sad place right now with people talking about multiverses and other abhorrent mystical nonsense. Oh, we can't currently probe at sufficiently low resolution / high energy... that means it must be magic /s
