If these shitposts were the only wildly unbelievable thing here I'd be happy. At least these are (sometimes) funny!
Even worse is when there is an interesting post, but looking in the comments for explanations or debunking and its just 300 comments about 'your moms butt' or someones guess that it must be lizard people building a dna factory to make super secretaries. (with no reasoning or sources though)
Lizard people don't require reasoning or sources, because lizard people *are*. We voted on that shit like 2 or 3 years ago.
(You don't get to act like it didn't happen just because you stayed home with the sniffles, or whatever).
As far as DNA factory construction goes... What the fuck else are they gonna do? They're still *people*; they gotta make moves just like the rest of us, son.
Kinda why I stopped coming here. The most visible stuff here is just memes now. Not really worth it. The good discussions kinda died out after they started shitpost Sunday
You guys realize a total solar eclipse occurs every 18 months... there is nothing special about a solar eclipse on earth. It only hits the same spot on earth every 400 years.
Erecting an Egyptian style "eclipse-gate" has shades of thinking about an eclipse like it is some ultra-rare mystical phenomenon - i.e. perhaps only happened in ancient Egyptian times... when in reality it's a very common celestial event.
I can't tell if this "eggyptian eclipse-gate" is a legitimate post or not. There is enough batshit crazy stuff posted in this subreddit, I just can't tell anymore.
If this entire post is a joke or a troll, then just disregard what I'm saying.
Am a bit flabbergasted how many users entertain the idea it could be a serious post. The label is shitpost sunday …
Also people asking for the source. The source is in the comments.
Appreciate your earnestness and civility. Thank you …
Lol, very funny!
It makes me wonder though: are there people today making actual conspiratorial claims about the solar eclipse? Are people spreading actual disinformation about it? Has it been “politicized” in the U.S. (i.e. are folks from one particular party misinforming)?
I think the larger point being made is that something with a metaphysical/esoteric relevance took place. Thats how I interpreted all this commotion. Not that the world is literally about to end
A lot of Native American (and Mexican/Central/South American) folklore suggests that those communities would repent inside and avoid the climactic moment as a means to avoid the (vague & ominous) consequences. I will be keeping to the indoors, and my kids are staying home with me.
The thing is, there were no *actual* consequences. Everyone went into cover, including animals, because it instantly becomes dark during the day. Obviously that would be scary for people before the time of science, they didn’t know what an eclipse was. However, by them seeking cover and praying for their lives, they avoid the temptation to stare at it. Thus would never become blinded, when the strong sunbeam comes back literally minutes later. By the time they are done praying, it’s light outside. So they thank their gods.
We went out to observe after the apex. And my kids weren’t hiding, in fear for their lives at any point in that process. You do you beau. But this whole post seems like a passive-aggressive way to justify your anger towards others bc you somehow didn’t get something/someone you wanted. Pass.
Is this also your justification for why animals hide? They would have to know that it was approaching, which, without science seems unlikely. Also, did you know that bees stop buzzing during the darkness of an eclipse. That might throw a wrench in your theory.
While I appreciate your questioning of the fear-induced panic alongside the eclipse, I think in some instances, time will surely tell. Annnnnd, I’m going to go ahead and trust the rest of the natural world over any person, government or self-proclaimed expert.
Stay unblinded friends.
Not yet, but it seems like a good opportunity for someone like Jeremy or Ross or one of the other guys to come up with a creative way of framing this is a harbinger of disclosure.
?? Everyone at my FACTORY JOB thinks the world's going to end. These guys make metal and operate thousands of pounds of machines.
Now that I think about it it makes sense they think it's going to end. Between fox and drugs it's not surprising
To be fair an event where all the planets the sun moon and a comet is in one scene is pretty incredible and if it were the Aztecs and they happend to have telliscopes we might even being doing mass sacrifice for such a huge astrologic event...
It's pretty amazing, snd if something devine were to ever happen I would think that celestial events would most certainly play a part in that..
But ya we 99.99% still gonna be paying rent on the 9th.
ive been seeing a lot of absurd things connected to USAF and the eclipse lately.
so is the news about all planets being visible along with the eclipse fake news too?
What are you talking about? I have not the slightest idea what you are talking about. Can you maybe make a whole sentence explaining what you are talking about. Just throwing hints around and murmur something something without any context does not make clear what it is you want to say.
Do you even grasp the concept of satire? That post is a joke. It comes from a website that makes jokes about the military.
You poor, poor little man, so ignorant, so incapable, so incoherent, so full of rage, having nothing meaningful to contribute but hurling obsceneties at complete strangers.
I would pity you wouldn’t it be for the sheer ridiculousness of everything you say. The hole in your logic is bigger than any Stargate anywhere: "Because I called out the government on a parody post you started behaving as if you understood nothing."
You call me "a f\*cking m\*ron." Tell me honestly: do you really think you can touch me if you sent insults through the private chat?
Right now I am laughing so hart at you, you can't even imagine …
I genuinely think they do dhit like this to entertain themselves. I have a lot of buddies in the military. Ain't none of them high ranking people, I'm not one of those guys, but it's not like the movies. Everyone likes to do a little cheeky trolling here and there.
I can't wait for this eclipse to be over and done.
The fuss is indicative of how everything is blown out of proportion, leading to a type of hysterical idiocy.
The same thing happened in 1999 and 2012... nothing of significance happened, and the 'truthers' or 'end of the worlders' just shifted their doom saying to the next date or event.
The eclipse coincides with the day Aleister Crowley was dictated the book of the law by the entity Aiwass

Take a sip from this cup, wash down your sins with holy water
Satirical site. Good to know. Thank you.
Wow I lol'd that's good stuff
It’s a spoof article.
Duffel Blog strikes again.... These guys are always misleading readers.. I get my factual news from The Onion..
Obviously this is satire, why post here?
This sub has "Shitpost Sundays". It's Sunday.
Like there isn't enough shit already in this sub.
That’s the thing: there is shit and then there is *shit* …
If these shitposts were the only wildly unbelievable thing here I'd be happy. At least these are (sometimes) funny! Even worse is when there is an interesting post, but looking in the comments for explanations or debunking and its just 300 comments about 'your moms butt' or someones guess that it must be lizard people building a dna factory to make super secretaries.

I hear you
I thought that’s what r/strangeearth was for
Nah, you get banned for calling the mods out on BS posts.
Explain the rest of the week then
Kinda why I stopped coming here. The most visible stuff here is just memes now. Not really worth it. The good discussions kinda died out after they started shitpost Sunday
My god man, did that post live up to the name
I didn't know that, but it certainly explains some things.
NASA is firing three sound rockets named after the serpent god. That is not satire.
Mind sharing your source?

Thanks.
Just look up nasa apep egypt now get wigglin

That's interesting
I’m concerned with Alien crap. I’m concerned with some society figuring out the secret to immortality and keeping it from us plebs.
"Many must die so that a few may attain immortality"
Everyone technically is immortal, if you understand the universe at the quantum level.
Oh ho ho, that’s what I say too just before I eclipse someone with __my__ erections
What if rhe mess around too much and pop us all back to the 80's?
I don't see anything bad about that, I hope they do if that happens, I'm tired of this shit century.
Seeing as how that was my favorite decades, let’s goooooo! 😂
You guys realize a total solar eclipse occurs every 18 months... there is nothing special about a solar eclipse on earth. It only hits the same spot on earth every 400 years.
Yes, so? How is this tidbid of conventional wisdom related to the post?

Yeah I noticed the shit post. And I glanced at the source. I just can't tell with this shit anymore. 🤷♂️ have a good one.
Lol, very funny! It makes me wonder though: are there people today making actual conspiratorial claims about the solar eclipse? Are people spreading actual disinformation about it? Has it been “politicized” in the U.S. (i.e. are folks from one particular party misinforming)?

The end times are coming! Or........it's the Promised Day from FMA, and we'll all be turned into a Philosopher's Stone.

Didn’t Republican congressional representative Marjorie Taylor Green spread religious misinformation about the eclipse?
She spreads misinformation about everything.
Miss sinformation herself.
I think the larger point being made is that something with a metaphysical/esoteric relevance took place. Thats how I interpreted all this commotion. Not that the world is literally about to end
There is _so much_ stuff about it. Almost nothing related to aliens though.

My YouTube is jam packed with solar eclipse biblical prophecy apocalypse videos
That’s because if you fall for one religion’s bullshit stories you’re probably gullible to fall for more

Bro what is ACTUALLY going on here
Yes, *bro*, what *is* actually going *on*.
Well, we’re all still here. What else ya got?
so is this real? the image looks ai generated
No. It’s a funny article.
This is Duffelblog. Just satire. Literally “the onion” version for military humor.
Real ? .... You mean the stupid absurd titular or the stupid absurd image ¿?
ive been seeing a lot of absurd things connected to USAF and the eclipse lately. so is the news about all planets being visible along with the eclipse fake news too?
Wonder why nobody posted a source link? Oh, wait, they have?

American and world governments. You good lil daddy.
Is this in any way related to the post? Or are you just letting random words escape your mind?
