Honestly, the first thing that came to mind when I saw the picture was that her son made her a crown, and she was proudly rockin' it.

I mean that's probably what happened but you can't get insta likes without a wacky ass story

[-] FlaminGoku@reddthat.com 3 points 5 days ago

That's exactly what happened.

A little mind control in their life builds character

I'm waiting for the day someone wears a tinfoil hat specifically to protect only their head from beta radiation from something stupid like a pile of slightly radioactive rocks from a mine.

It would just be so funny to demonstrate an actual use, but not care about covering the test of your body lol.

The babies have evolved past tin foil

You wear a tinfoil cap to keep the radio waves from controlling your brain.

I wear a tinfoil cap to keep my brain's waves from interfering with nearby electronics.

We are not the same.

I wear my tinfoil cap to keep people from socializing with me.

We are not the same.

That's what Larry did on Curb!

His hat pushed society away and he loved it.

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 days ago

It's the same picture

So let's assume that radio waves can control your mind and that tinfoil can stop the radio waves... what good is covering just the top of your head? Couldn't the radio waves strike the mind from a lower angle? This defense is basically useless.

I take apart bombs, missiles and other explosive ordnance for a living, and sometimes we have to wrap certain components or fuzes in aluminum foil to lower the effects of RF on them for transport. The general rule I follow is if you could put it underwater and water would get in, then radio frequencies won't be deadened. So if she wants to be protected then she would have to create a watertight seal around her head and do us all a favor.

You're asking them to think. That's your first mistake.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

I think it's dumb to assume they don't think at all. It is just that their thinking is seriously flawed

[-] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 0 points 6 days ago

Also if you do wear a tinfoil hat, there is no brain worth protecting in there. My favorite paradox

Your teeth are natural mind-control blockers. Dentin is the best radiation-absorber this side of lead paint!

Someone did a study at MIT about tin foil hats, and found that not only do they not screen radio interference, in some cases, can actually magnify them.

Conclusion: The helmets amplify frequency bands that coincide with those allocated to the US government between 1.2 Ghz and 1.4 Ghz. According to the FCC, These bands are supposedly reserved for ''radio location'' (ie, GPS), and other communications with satellites (see, for example, [3]). The 2.6 Ghz band coincides with mobile phone technology. Though not affiliated by government, these bands are at the hands of multinational corporations. It requires no stretch of the imagination to conclude that the current helmet craze is likely to have been propagated by the Government, possibly with the involvement of the FCC. We hope this report will encourage the paranoid community to develop improved helmet designs to avoid falling prey to these shortcomings.

So tinfoil hats are pushed by the mind-controllers, and those that are persuaded by this weak signal start wearing them to receive the signal more strongly and be mind-controlled more thoroughly

Correction: someone did a study at MIT about aluminum helmets, not tin foil hats. The important distinction being aluminum vs. tin.

Word to the wise: Only buy tin for your protective day wear, as it hasn't been proven ineffective at blocking radio waves by MIT, unlike aluminum. Stay safe out there!

Quick addendum: This is a bit. Don't come after me, Big Aluminum.

I looked her up. I'm pretty sure this is satire judging from the comedic nature of most of her posts.

thinks mind controlling radio waves are a legitimate threat that needs to be protected against

doesn't take steps to also protect their young children from that danger

classic

[-] Zink@programming.dev 6 points 6 days ago

Insert that photo of a pregnant lady smoking while talking to the news about how something else is making her concerned for her kids.

Don’t worry, children are under the control of their parents until they turn 18
