@freemo Yeah, this gets at a big part of the problem, I think; failure to apply Bayes correctly.

@freemo
The "Doomsdayers" (End of the world on 8 April 2024, for instance) are worse. Flat-Earthers can easily disregard evidence, but "I am alive" on the day after doomsday, should be pretty compelling evidence and hard to dismiss.

@niclas

Doomsdayers dont bother me as much.. i mean yea they are cringe... but i mean, who cant help rooting for a good end of the world apocalypse... at least they are optimists :)
