    Oh wow… that’s way worse than I thought.

    Yet another ridiculous antiscience crusade preying on people’s insecurities and desire for easy answers and solutions.

    And there’s gotta be grifters pushing this bullshit and profiting off it via books, online classes or YouTube channels. There always are and they’re always really fucking weird.

    Anyway…Thanks for taking the time to explain! I really appreciate it!

      I think it’s also been hijacked by christian and muslim fundies in recent years. at least I’ve noticed a religious flavor to a lot of it and when you look at the profiles of people pushing it they’re often active in those groups.
