"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?

  • The simple version is that color blindness is caused by a physical problem with your eyes. If you don't have the parts required to detect certain colors then no glasses are going to fix that. They're just tinted glasses, the guy in the video tries three different pairs from different companies and all they do is tint the world a hideous shade of pink/magenta.

    As someone else said above, what they can do is change your ability to differentiate between objects of slightly different colors. You might have a really hard time telling the difference between red and green, but find it easier to tell the difference between hideous vaguely reddish magenta and hideous vaguely greenish magenta. They don't grant you a greater range of color vision, but they do change what color is actually hitting your eyes. Mostly into hideous magenta.

    FWIW the guy in the video points out that in his experience it generally made colors harder, not easier, to differentiate.

  • I understand that the reddit one was created in a different time, but I feel like in 2023 there's no excuse for making the name of your general womens' forum overtly transphobic

  • I'm disappointed I missed the chance to get one of these. It seems like such a cool thing. I'm holding out hope that they'll revisit the idea someday.

  • Just saying that someone said something is not citing a source. They taught us this in elementary school.

  • Literally 0 sources anywhere and literally invokes 1984

    Liberal propaganda is so fucking lazy. Y'all realize this is way closer to what 1984 was actually about right?

    Lemmy.ml is dishonest - they even removed trace of an upvoted sane comment 29 for 1.

  • Go back to reddit where you belong, reactionary

    How is Lemmy going to make money?

  • Liberapay is much preferred

    Maybe you should make that more obvious on the page somehow? Like make Liberapay a bigger button that's separate from the rest, or just outright say in the text that it's preferred? Because as someone with no preference between them and considering supporting, I probably would have gone with Patreon out of inertia/recognition.
