“It’s funny how people will believe in Newton’s laws of motion but still think the Force from Star Wars is mythical nonsense.”
They also seem to believe wi-fi “powers everything”? What a loon.
Introducing POW (power over wlan)! By broadcasting a constant small gamma wave, small electronic devices can use the latent energy to power electronic components.
I think you’re probably joking, but this actually is a thing. e.g. https://scitechdaily.com/engineers-harvest-energy-from-wifi-signals-to-power-small-electronics/
Heard some conspiracy folks mention negative frequencies from 5G and the like. It’s just a phase I guess…
Negative frequency is a concept in signal processing, and many other domains.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_frequency
Phase could be the thing, beats me, it’s been a while. Negative resistance is also another one of those concepts that pop up now and then, specifically negative differential resistance.
I mean, the signs* are right there in the article
*something something sines
I absolutely believe in energy, frequency, and vibration. My wifi vibrates at a frequency of 2.4 and 5 GHz and in order to do that it needs to use energy.
Like, I’m down with hippie woo energy work, it’s really useful meditation. I use it to keep my anxiety under control. But your religion can’t cure diseases, it can only provide comfort
Meditation is awesome and useful. But it doesn’t need to be mystical and magical to be great, and I wish more people realized that.
They aren’t “powering everything”. JFC go lick a wall outlet, that’s what powers many things. WiFi is information, and indeed, they try to make it use less and less power.
It could power stuff. Tesla was working on it, and there have been a few small companies over the years that have done it.
Just turns out that it’s not very practical compared to a wall socket.
Trying to legitimize bullshit by using big words out of context and meaning
So many layers to unpack here.
I only saw the top part of the picture at first, and I was very confused: “Why is this in Science Memes?”
WiFi IS real. “Auras”, “Vibes” and “Crystal Energy” is magical nonsense.
The only real magic is friendship.
That’s just what big WiFi wants you to think so they can sell you more WiFi
Open your eyes sheeple! And also remember to buy my $499 online course on how to make the vibrations of your aura more positive or somethingCan you teach me to vibrate into alternate universes like The Flash? 'Cause I don’t like this one that much.
Absolutely! But that’s not covered until the Level 2 course, which is an in-person retreat.
Thats why you scream ‘oh god!’ when climaxing.
To be honest… electric field you are surrounded by every day most likely affects you more than position of Saturn on the night sky… But people who claim that new tech is causing medical issues are considered crackpots.
Believing in astrology is much safer.
World appears to be solid/stable at first but on closer inspection is actually vibratory.
It’s ok to have points of agreement. You don’t have to mock and bicker 100% of the time.
This is what I don’t like about the top meme, though. Like, yes, energy, frequency, and vibration are all things. Obviously. But the top meme is implying that everyone should believe that those things work in the specific ways that the woo practitioners say they do, and that’s a very different demand. More, it’s implying that people who doubt those effects are ignoring obvious evidence, when in fact the people who doubt those effects do so because nobody has been able to demonstrate reliable evidence for them. It has a nasty gaslighting overtone to it.
There’s not enough information in the top meme to know what theories it’s about.
Things vibrate in a way that isn’t obvious to an unexamined view. If I look at a pebble, it appears to be non-vibratory, still. But a mystic or scientist who has really investigated it closely, exposed it to close analysis, can tell you that the reality of the pebble is vibration, not stillness.
I mean, it’s talking about people thinking that “energy, frequency and vibration are just mystical nonsense.” People don’t think that if you talk about an FM station broadcasting on a particular frequency, or about the frequency of light absorbed by particular atomic orbitals. They think that if you’re explaining that you’ve slept much better since you placed jasper and amethyst on the ley lines near your bed to absorb the negative frequencies.
The implication in the meme that anyone who is using these terms cannot be indulging in mystical nonsense, because these terms can also apply to real things. In fact, though, mystic cranks have been coopting scientific terms for ages, and they show no signs of slowing down. It’s a real problem that people confuse crap with science.
I’ve lost interest 🥱
