In reality I’d call it an elegant deduction - so many different phenomena point to there being more matter than we can see, so the straightforward conclusion is that there must be matter which interacts very weakly or not at all with electromagnetic forces.
The theory works out well, the solution is not hand waving and also rather elegant.

I feel like he kind of missed the point of the republican counterattack here.
They want Obama to come off as elitist and out of touch, so they try to spin it as him looking down on regular people who go to Cheesecake Factory.
Which requires some mental gymnastics, but that’s clearly why they ignore the Hussein part.
But being a Pisces doesn’t mean anything, does it? It could both mean being someone who is afraid of risks and someone who is bold and takes chances.
How is it easier?
I like to think of personality tests like Meyers Briggs as pseudoscientific nonsense like astrology
I assume the calculator follows this math, you can check it if you want to understand better.
But the numbers are almost same order of magnitude, is it really that bad?
Thanks! So @DupaCycki@lemmy.world said
It’s blatant misinformation based on false data
Your link says Kurzgesagt
Those are very different statements. In particular, your link says that the science and data can be completely correct, but that by obscuring conflicts of interest they reduce credibility, and by using Western data sources and scientists, their perspective is skewed.
It can all be good and credible science, but it’s science from a single perspective.
It’s an interesting discussion, but it doesn’t support the point that this should be disinformation or based on false data. It supports a much more moderate point that it represents a limited worldview, I’d say.
Are there text format criticisms? Or could you highlight the key points or evidence against Kurzgesagt? Sorry, I have a hard time parsing videos on this kind of stuff.
Also in general the videos I’ve seen are solid information based on good data, like Our World On Data, is it some specific video or class of videos that are misinformation and poorly founded in data?
Those are fair reasons for skepticism, but whenever I check, their videos are not misrepresenting or twisting the subjects they analyze, but are rather transparent about their sources, their limitations and the differences between presentation of data and more “opinion based” parts.
For sure it would be a problem if they were in the pocket of industry, but if somebody makes a truthful quality video on a topic, and they receive support from people interested in truthful quality videos on that topic, that itself does not render the video less truthful or less quality.
And doesn’t render it a shitty channel.
What’s so shitty about it? I quite like it.
Just to be clear, Kurzgesagt is not using AI, but being copied by AI slop.
That’s a fact.
Yes
I oppose “freely sent help” to a country/territory that opposes us in the EU.
Fair. But how is it Greenland’s or Denmark’s or anyone’s fault if e.g. France voluntarily sends support? Isn’t that France’s own fault?
Denmark demands nothing, where are you getting that from?
Any troops or military aid sent to Greenland were sent freely and independently by individual states.
What exactly do you think has happened?
What tax money? Greenland’s defense is funded by Denmark. If your country uses its military to aid Denmark and Greenland that’s not Greenland’s or EU’s fault, that’s a decision made by your government.
They are. It was Denmark who asked other EU countries to help.
Under the current rules, the Greenland premier isn’t even allowed to talk to foreign leaders without a Danish representative present.
In a sense, Greenland has no foreign relations beyond those mediated by Denmark.
What did Greenland do to piss you off?
That’s true - but Greenland’s defense is managed by Denmark, who is indeed a member of the EU, so your argument doesn’t really hold.
Iceland is part of EEA, so it hasn’t really rejected EU I’d say, they just don’t want to talk about giving up sovereignty.
When I close my eyes, I can no longer see the horse. Ergo the horse has stopped existing.
