    People, people, please.
    It is perfectly reasonable important to ask ourselves sometimes: how do we know the world is actually a spheroid?
    We all assume it is, but have you experienced it yourself? Humans are wrong with their assumptions about the world more often than they are right, did you consider this?
    Now, you might have a thread full of possible hints towards a spheroid planet, and you have discussed it amongst yourself, to the best of your ability determining it does a lot look like it might be spheroid - with some people hoping that it turns out spheroid and others open that it isn't qhen things go wrong. But what if all of you are just subject to a well-known phenomenon of mass hallucinations, which especially affects those of low IQ, such like the people who are not myself?
    And it gets worse when people are in a group for anlong time. They tell to each other that the world must be round, but what do they use? Physics? Optics? Geometry?
    Do you know how many times these fields have been re-written again and again? By people in authority no less, who are well-known to be conspiratorial liars whenever you don't watch their fingers closely.
    You might now wonder where my questions are going, but really, where would all you people end up if not someone like me, with one year of high-school philosophy under my belt, didn't engage you with aimless sophistry?
    This is my last and only post. Have a good night everyone.
    (You expected me to wish you a good day? Expectations subverted again sheeple! I will now leave to look at Hunter Biden's leaked nudes.)

    I wouldn't mind them much either but my lord why do they have to be so long winded? 
    Folks, you can be wrong just as much in a paragraph as in a page! Try it!

    You're not wrong, they do tend to help clarify some things via how people respond to their emotional conjecture with simple analysis. 
    But after the first wall of text...

    So I know a couple people who got hit by whatever this thing was/is and this whole thing is just bizarre. In both cases they had never heard of this thing and suddenly started showing weird symptoms. Maybe it is like Gulf War Syndrome (know a couple people with that too) - a combination of factors that become so tangled that we never really can pin down a single cause.
    I have heard both sides of this whole thing and it remains a mystery to me.

    Ok, so looking at the actual poll, this is typical media/political spinning. The headline conveniently leaves out that 70% think that the US should either continue or increase aid to Ukraine with the only split being whether it is given with or without oversight. 
    The actual question (question 4 of the poll) was "How much of a role do you believe the US should have in helping to negotiate an end to the Russia-Ukraine war?" 71% responded with either a major role or a minor role by combining the two choices. The question was not what the headline above says and neither was the answer. Later on question 7, 69% respond that they support the US urging Ukraine to negotiate a settlement to the war. Maybe that is because most people want wars to end? 
    In the end a typical poll with wishy-washy questions that can be interpreted to the will of whatever political slant one wants.

    In case someone didn't read it yet, worth to check newest well-documented investigation conclusions about so-called Havana syndrome. Guess who was behind it?

    That's a great idea!
    The rest of it is infantile, whiney drivel, so you're really doing everyone a favour by limiting your stable genius to one glorious post.
    Of course, you could have not posted at all - that's an even better idea! 
    The latter is mine but you can have it, gratis. Sorry, too many syllables - Free.
