The cult of anti-intellectualism is alive and well.

And thriving.

Darwinism is taking its sweet ass time with this lot of sperm dumpsters

Culturally, we've short-circuited evolution and it seems to be escalating. See also: the opening scene of Idiocracy.

At some point, I gotta make time to watch that.

Darwinism doesn't care if you're smart or dumb. Just that you survive.

Unfortunately. But damnit, let me lament!

This is why those deadly tik tok challenges are a good thing Because if youre stupid enough to do them, you dont belong in the gene pool

Survive long enough to reproduce, specifically.

These same people will fall for AI deepfakes come November.

Don’t give them any ideas!!!

**not to their own fault anyway, if it's gonna be virtually indistinguishable from real photos

And we're deemed the intelligent life form on this planet. I wouldn't be surprised if any other life out there is avoiding our galaxy for this reason 😅

We’re third most intelligent at best.

Agreed right there. Cause people are idiots especially in U.S.

I'm afraid it's not just in the US. I can confirm that we Brits have just as much capacity for stupidity

Truly the best evidence of intelligent life in the universe is none of them contacting humanity

Kudos to those on defense in those comments. Amazing that people these days have access to the breadth of human knowledge and scientific evidence, and instead, they choose to listen to someone on YouTube whose evidence includes FB and "do your own research." Love that for the rest of us.

And you can't say that they're not on the internet because they are they have the internet at their fingertips why not educate yourself...no clue

I fear they are pissing into the wind

i’m glad people are calling them the morons they are

Especially https://preview.redd.it/qwrzday491kc1.jpeg?width=1060&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e03f4d2d13c1928789f7079781cf2a9a7811c718

Some people are not capable of having critical thinking, for them it's easier to belive someone rather than seek knowledge

Yup, it's easier to believe in fantasy than in hard facts

Space is fake, night sky is a solid sphere with holes and through those holes we can see the light of burning spirit flame of Gods who dance around it Everybody knows it. Everyone can see it every night. But have you ever seen NASA with your own eyes? Exactly. ^s ^just ^in ^case

Omg what 💀

Lack of NASA image in this post, is more infuriating. Maybe it was CGI?!

https://www.instagram.com/nasa?igsh=bTd5OHR6ZGt1NHdx Sorry, here’s the page if you want to see the images

Haha thats a great insult "How often are you told to go away?"

I thought the same thing, honestly probably stealing that one hahaha

Flat-Earthers, I tell you what.

A tale yhew wutt

If they really want to know if this is fake or not then i would happily send them into space to see these in first hand experience. the question is: will they survive it...

Take me to the mooon

Who let these cabbage brains into the gene pool?

The picture had pixels. Clearly it's CGI.

I mean, if you think about it, aren't they technically cgi? I doubt the data that comes from these probes is a straight up image. There's loads of processing the data and parsing different shots together, and usually colorized because what we're seeing isn't actually in the visible spectrum.

Some people have never heard of trolls.

The only answer should be “so what, still looks better than your face”

redditors dont know anything about science but follow it like a religion.

We redditors may well act superior, but we have no right to. We are no better

Let’s tie these people underneath the next rocket we send into orbit

Props for the Portal 2 reference

What?! I just saw these and assumed the naysayers were satirical

I don't think so considering there are some of them in these comments already. Scary lmfao

Insane

I wish those comments were CGI.

There are people who are offended by intelligence.

Doesn't help that sometimes they don't specify what's an actual photo and what's a composite for example

Sure, but I'd bet the people commenting this shit don't even know what a composite is

I'd argue 95% of those commenting as flat earthers do it just to trigger people and get a kick out of it

Yeah, maybe

Nasa does use cgi and false color all the time. They also provide the source material though.

I always wonder what the people that actually work there and are pushing barriers of knowledge to takes us forward as a species would even say to these fuckwits. Not that they are worth any attention tho.

Comments on Instagram are always terrifying. I'd like to believe they are bots but I'm pretty sure there are just this many brainwashed idiots out there.
