Wasn't there a big budget biopic on Oppenheimer that released last year?

I can't recall the name of it... But it was for sure centered on Oppenheimer while he helped develop nuclear fission weapons.

If anyone can remember the name of that biopic that focused on Oppenheimer, please let me know, it's killing me.

There was a really big popular movie last year, I think it was called "The Barbie Movie"

Of course not. That would require him acknowledging women in science. That would be Marie Curie.

[–] kmaismith@lemm.ee 16 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Maybe he is insinuating that women are demons

The real question is: and????
So we're harvesting demonic forces to power our shit?
That's fuckin' metal duuuuude. If you're trying to make nuclear sound bad you failed.

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

He's an psychopathic idiot who laughs like a maniac on speed. I'm pretty sure his idea of research is "I spent 15 minutes not understanding the wiki."

He's talking to evangelicals who react when you use the word "demonic" about anything. They hold great political sway, and they have proven that they will go against their own moral interests to nurture their political interests.

Case in point, watch them get in line to vote for Trump today, despite him being the antithesis of evangelical behavior and values.

How most dumb people reason.

I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it's not real.

If i dont know, nobody knows.

Richard Rhodes' The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a great book that kind of explains all that in detail...

but i would say it is either the Curie's experiments, discovering the neutron, splitting the atom, Fermi's reactor, or the tests during the Manhattan project; all really well documented.

I think that maybe losing his job at fox news phased him more than he let on

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

He expected to be his own brand, like Musk or Trump or Limbaugh. When he realized he was still just another faceless interchangeable mouthpiece, that definitely fucked his ego.

[–] RunawayFixer@lemmy.world 39 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've got the impression that Tucker Carlson is going after Alex Jones his audience. Tucker Carlson peddling crazy conspiracy theories right when the chickens are coming home to roost for Alex Jones, imo that's no coincidence. Tucker never was stupid, he just has no morals, so he never had a problem with publicly stating stuff that he personally didn't believe in. Grifters gonna grift.

Dude went to see Barbie a second time to seethe about feminism. Entirely missed Openheimer. "Too long, too sciency."

[–] sxan@midwest.social 75 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Curse you. You stole my outtake.

"In other news, Carlson fell asleep ten minutes in to Oppenheimer, and Barbie made him uncomfortable."

In case anyone wants the answer, it's late December 1938, when two physicists went for a walk in the snow near Stockholm to discuss findings a colleague sent via letter.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 60 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Given Tucker's views on women, I don't see a discrepancy

Been a lot of "demon" talk from him lately. Tucker's literally turning into Alex Jones before our very eyes.

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 78 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I have never met a person who can isolate the moment when Tucker Carlson became Alex Jones. So, where did it come from exactly? ...it's very clear to me both are demons.

Ah yes, the ol’ “if I don’t know something, then it MUST be X” argument.

Substitute X for whatever ya like! Demons, ghouls, demon ghouls…the possibilities are endless!

more anti science rhetoric

[–] JackRiddle@sh.itjust.works 27 points 2 days ago (14 children)

Looking at the content of the message and the name of the source, I thought this had to be satire. But the site seems to be an actual news site, and other news sites corroborate the story. Which brings me to the question I wanted to ask:

What the fuck‽

It's like toothpaste, how does it work? When was it invented? Clearly demons at play!

My son when he was 6 probably.

Oppenheimer, Einstein, Bohr. What is this guy smoking? Wait, wasn't this guy a news anchor not too long ago? Can people this stupid and uneducated really make it as a news anchor!?

It's well documented that Tucker doesn't believe the things he says. He's just saying things for money.
