It’s making me smile know what just happened to you after reading that comment and wondering what a demon core could possibly be.

In case anyone wants the answer, it’s 1938.

Given Tucker’s views on women, I don’t see a discrepancy
Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 6 months ago
Eh, I don’t even want to give credence to Carlson’s garbage by repeating it. But even if we imagine Otto Frisch was somehow there alone making drawings in the snow, we still know when it happened.

Been a lot of “demon” talk from him lately. Tucker’s literally turning into Alex Jones before our very eyes.
lvxferre@mander.xyz 6 months ago
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.
postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 6 months ago
There is no known point in time where Tucker Carlson and Bill Hicks were in the same room. Do your own math.

“I have never met a person who can…”
Who the hell are Becquerel or the Curies!?

This is a technique of their “I’ve never met _____, therefore ____.”

Everybody knows Marie Curie was a woman and woman’s contributions to science just don’t exist or even register. Women scientists are literally the devil. /s
Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 6 months ago
Marie Curie didn’t discover fission; that was Lise Meitner and her nephew Otto Frisch and colleague Otto Hahn. But yeah, same problem. Meitner was left out of the publications and overlooked for a Nobel Prize.
businessfish@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 months ago
well if women scientists are the devil then nuclear science WAS developed by a demon. checkmate atheists ^/s^

How most dumb people reason.
I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it’s not real.

Academics : exists This fucking guy : “no one in the entire world knows when nuclear power was first theorized, and then confirmed by several experiments”
Saleh@feddit.org 6 months ago
you are now banned from Atheist Memes.
Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 6 months ago
People aren’t atheist because they have no personal experience proving the existence of a god.
Atheism isn’t a belief system.
The lack of evidence for a god isnwhy atheists exists.
Personal experience and evidence are two different things.
Maggoty@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Of course not. That would require him acknowledging women in science. That would be Marie Curie.
kmaismith@lemm.ee 6 months ago
Maybe he is insinuating that women are demons
Atrichum@lemmy.world 6 months ago
He nay be insinuating that jews are demons. Many of the most famous early nuclear scientists were jewish.
Maggoty@lemmy.world 6 months ago
That would be on point for him.
EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I’m not defending Tucker here but no it was not Marie Curie.
Maggoty@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Well you have the guy who found uranium, the guy who ran electrical checks through a vacuum, the guy who found pitchblende, and then Marie Curie who did the experiments with refined pitchblende to create X-ray machines.
If you want to talk specifically about nuclear energy and weapons then you’re probably looking for Rutherford. But he wouldn’t even be conducting those experiments without Curie, Röntgen, and Becquerel.
LiveLM@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
The real question is: and???
So we’re harvesting energy from demons to power our shit?
That’s fuckin’ metal duuuuude. If you tried to make nuclear less cool you failed miserably.Etterra@lemmy.world 6 months 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. Case in point, watch them get in line to vote for Trump today, despite him being the antithesis of evangelical behavior.
RunawayFixer@lemmy.world 6 months ago
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.
Sporkbomber@lemm.ee 6 months ago
That’s my initial thought as well. The weird thing though is he’s already rich, he could bugger off into obscurity and live a life of luxury, but it seems like he just craves attention.
underwire212@lemm.ee 6 months ago
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!

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.
absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 6 months ago
There was a really big popular movie last year, I think it was called “The Barbie Movie”
EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 6 months ago
The splitting of the atom was only referenced in a single line in that movie and it wasn’t Oppenheimer who did it. Oppenheimer developed the nuclear bomb specifically.

So you clearly missed the point of the exercise, thank you for debating all the minutia of my joke to me.

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‽

My son when he was 6 probably.
Omega_Jimes@lemmy.ca 6 months ago
It’s well documented that Tucker doesn’t believe the things he says. He’s just saying things for money.
DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 6 months ago
Okay, but this is either just fundamentally really stupid or some demented Cultural Bolshevism nonsense after he watched Oppenheimer and realized America wouldn’t have nukes without Jewish and socialist brains.

kinsnik@lemmy.world 6 months ago
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.
