Pseudoarchaeology and the Pseudoscience Pipeline – Milo Rossi LIVE at Virginia Tech…

….	Date: April 23, 2024 01) LINK “SOME OTHER AMAZING SCI-COM COMMUNICATORS: Atlas Pro (Biology, Ecology, Biogeography): @AtlasPro1 Stefan Milo (Archaeology, History): @StefanMilo Geology Hub (You Are Never Gonna Guess…: @GeologyHub History with Kayleigh (Archaeology, History): @HistoryWithKayleigh Ancient Americas (Anthropology, Archaeology, History): @AncientAmericas Astro Alexandria (Astronomy, Space-Ology): @ASTRO_ALEXANDRA Lindsay Nicole (Zoology, Biology, Natural History): @LindsayNikole I have spoken a lot about every pseudoarchaeological and fringe theory under the sun. But rarely have I talked about the implications and dangers of pseudoscience as a whole. How pseudoarchaeology is one of many routes into a dangerous anti-intellectualism pipeline. This video is on just that topic. A live lecture that I did at Virginia Tech back in March discussing the dangers of pseudo archaeology and how it is promoted by an algorithm that is (un)intentionally radicalizing viewers. Id like to give a huge thank you to Virginia Tech for hosting me for this lecture, and I hope you all enjoy.” ===	….

DAMNING REPORT: UK Health Agency FAILS Children Suffering With GENDER Dysphoria…

“Jessica Burbank and Amber Duke react to a new report on gender-affirming care. #Transgender #gender”

Oh, gee…so…

…now “sexual molestation” is being pushed as one underlying cause of transgenderism?

Man…Don’t even think of putting this on MAPs…

…Transgenderism is it’s own thing, happening in its own places, on the individuals own terms…

People do not go literal transgender, because of some ridiculous notion about “fleeing in fear from MAPs”!

What Amber is alluding to, is not actual transgenderism…It’s people who may have been sexually brutalized, using a diversionary tactic to avoid any repeat.

I’m getting those vibes you get, whenever people claim “homosexuality is the fault of MAPs”.

Science Isn’t Dogma, You’re Just Stupid (Response to Formscapes)…

….	Date: April 05, 2024 01) LINK “Last month a channel named “Formscapes” released a profoundly idiotic video about how all of science is “dogma” from an “elite priesthood”, and we should instead listen to frauds who push demonstrably false pseudoscience because it makes him feel smart and special. He also tried to mock my debunk of Electric Universe for being similarly “dogmatic”, though he was totally incapable of explaining how, as he could not engage with a single scientific point I had made in the entire video. Since this anti-science mentality, which regards the entire body of scientific knowledge as corrupt and dogmatic, is so shockingly prevalent, let’s take Formscapes to school and explain to him how science actually works, shall we?” ===	….

“Briahna Joy Gray and Robby Soave discuss a proposal at the University of California that could curb free speech on some websites. #CA #Speech”

“Don’t give the right an easy target, to get your funding retracted”…

…Briahna just pointed out a very long standing, chronic problem in public universities.

If you stray into any socially controversial topic, you risk losing your financial funding…By it’s nature, this corrupts and distorts all ability to objectively conduct research.

QAnon’s Adrenochrome Quackery…

….	Date: March 21, 2024 01) LINK “A literature search of the chemistry of adrenaline revealed that in the lab it can be oxidized to a compound called adrenochrome, with the “chrome” ending deriving from the Greek word for colour since adrenochrome has a dark violet hue. At this point, the psychiatrists in somewhat of a foolhardy fashion tested the effects of this chemical on themselves. Indeed, adrenochrome produced hallucinations! Maybe, Hoffer and Osmond theorized, adrenaline is also oxidized in the body to adrenochrome, and due to some faulty biochemistry, the adrenochrome builds up and triggers schizophrenia. Since adrenaline is known to form in the body by the addition of a methyl group (a carbon atom with three hydrogens) to its precursor, noradrenaline, Dr. Hoffer postulated that the B vitamin, niacin, being a methyl acceptor, would stall this reaction. Furthermore, vitamin C, an antioxidant, might prevent adrenaline from being oxidized to adrenochrome. Thus was born the “Adrenochrome Hypothesis of Schizophrenia.” Drs. Hoffer and Osmond reported successful treatment of schizophrenics with megadoses of niacin and vitamin C, but a number of follow-up studies by others failed to confirm any benefit. The Adrenochrome Hypothesis faded into the background, but the reputed hallucinogenic effect of adrenochrome probably stimulated Hunter Thompson to include the drug in his novel. Adrenochrome also made it into the 1998 movie version of the book, and then in 2017 starred in a totally forgettable film, “Adrenochrome,” in which a young American veteran confronts some psychos in California who are on a murderous spree to extract the psychedelic compound from their victim’s adrenal glands. The stage was now set for QAnon’s perverse fabricated tale that a pedophile ring of Democratic politicians and Hollywood celebrities is engaged in satanic sacrifices culminating in slurping the blood of massacred children. To make matters worse, this crackpot lunacy has anti-Semitic overtones. […] Adrenochrome, which has no rejuvenating effects, and very questionable psychedelic properties, would have long faded into obscurity had it not been rejuvenated by the QAnon twaddle.” ===	….
