I mean... That is not really what was puzzling about mercury. Its elliptical orbit, as predicted by Newtonian physics, was shifting a little each orbit. It was not a trick of the light bending, it actually moves "wrong" according to newtonian physics. He could have just read wikipedia instead of making stuff up to try and sound smart. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tests_of_general_relativity
good read, but a better link for the next person:

url v1.0.1 release notes:
Detailed release notes for a URL change? You're a saint and a scholar both.
I wonder if it's a case of trying to make a habit of good practice. I've gotten into the habit of citing stuff when writing online, even if the context wouldn't really demand that (or slapping a [citation needed] onto the end of stuff I know I could cite, but I'm too lazy to do and I want it known that lack of sources mean my assertions are questionable)
no, it was just funny
That last bullet was my first laugh of the day.
Thank you! I wanted to make the link to appropriate section and I usually click the section in the toc to get it. But I could not find the toc on the mobile site.
And as I understand it, the existence of an inner planet (Vulcan) was a reasonable explanation consistent with Newtonian gravity. (The only problem was that the planet wasn't there.)
This guy is the definition of "if your only tool is a hammer, every problem will look like a nail".
"Leftist Tyranny".
If it was leftist tyranny, we would all get equal access to pet squirrels if we want them or not.
Fascism is denying squirrels to those who want them because the state has decided you can not have a squirrel.
The famously leftist NYPD.
I swear, every James Woods post I’ve ever read is the text equivalent of watching a seasoned philosopher very carefully, and methodically shit their pants.
So.. Diogenes?
If this were a shitpost, I would unironically love this.
Unfortunately, I think it isn't intended that way, so thumbs down from me
I got fucking whiplash from this lmao
Stupid people don't know how stupid they are. They reject the very notion. It's how one stays stupid in a world with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips.
Turns out access to knowledge was not a threat to the leaders in history. The very idea they were concerns may be oversold.
It's easy to assume that everyone that disagrees with us is stupid, but I can assure you that's very much not true.
I've seen otherwise very intelligent people lost down the rabbit hole of right-wing fuckbaggery. I think it's often just a slow burn from social media. I saw a video earlier today about an ancient tool for spear throwing, and was immediately afterwards presented with a video about how the new Dragon Age game is ruined by DEI...
And the saddest thing is, most people on the extremes have started at the same place: An unhappiness with their own life and a search for a solution. They've just ended up at vastly different positions, in that the right has chosen to blame the nebulous "others" below them, while the left has chosen to blame the "others" above them. And punching down is always an ugly look.
This news breaks, both leftist places and far right places get pissed off, but for some reason far right places think leftist want this….
This is actually a big problem when it comes to polarization. Right wing idiots think anything unpopular that they clearly don’t stand for HAS to be supported by “the radical left”.
It’s right out of the fascist playbook, blame all wrongdoings on your current scapegoat group.
His pattern recognition is through the roof !
Minus the "leftist" part of his argument, his assumption is correct. Reasonable laws and measures can be abused by power to oppress the people. Give the government an inch of power and they will take it a mile.
Using grounds of "preventing the spread of rabies" authorities invaded this man's home and killed his pets. Keep this in mind whenever giving the government any power. It is clear trump wants as much power as possible, even complimenting Hitler's generals for their loyalty and obedience.
Dude needed to get his wildlife handler paperwork or shut the fuck up. He claimed he was getting it repeatedly and there's evidence he did fuck all.
He got his animals killed by failing to adhere to the basic laws he already knew about. It wasn't a surprise.
Yeah I hate it when New York cops keep blabbing on and on about seizing the means of production, and how they’re going to take down the bourgeoisie.
(Looks at his twitter) Oh no
Is that a ReLife meme?!
Holy fucking shit we need a warning for this amount of whiplash.
James you're such a great actor it's sad you're such a fucking loser.
Awww man, is James Woods a brain-dead MAGA cultist now?
🌎👨🚀🔫👨🚀
That shouldn't be surprising, given his history.
Ah, the good old fallacy of justifying one thing with something completely unrelated.
One can just as easily use the same argumentative structure to claim that a delayed train on the subway is the tip of the iceberg which is the Worldwide Illuminati Conspiracy or that the wood in one's wardrobe having a darker spot indicates it used to be a gateway to Narnia.
Muh squirrel freedums
Isn't there a character limit on shitter?
For blue checks it's now much higher
So, the squirrel is gonna give us quantium gravity and leftist are gonna use it for conquest?
Not sure I'm following, but it maked kinda sense.
Isn't that kinda satire?
It's James woods, he's 100% brainworms serious.
That is actually impressively dumb
Like seriously, I think he really really put effort into being dumb here. You can't be just randomly that ignorant here, I think
You can't be just randomly that ignorant here, I think
Woods didn't just randomly become that ignorant, he's been practicing for well over a decade. He's professionally ignorant.
It's xitter, it's impossible to know. Even with winking emojis and /s people will take the second half seriously
