Assuming the probability of assholiness based on culture is how you treat cultures unequally. You fight assholiness in the individual level. You can’t change a culture like that. You can only educate people and they will change their own culture.

ITT people missing the point and projecting their own beliefs and values.
This is how people “strawman”. It’s easy to hate on atheists if you just see them all as their asshole members. The truth is that any group has their violent nutjobs and vocal minorities. You can’t just say all Muslims are terrorists just the same as you can’t say feminists are hateful crazies.

Looking at the picture, my theory may be wrong. There is a black spot on the torch too far from the hot glass.
My other theory is that the flames where so bright they had to edit the footage. Old film developers had a technique to darken an area called “burning”. It was not so precise to cover over the flame so the are around the bright spots got darkened as well.
Modern HDR can have a similar effect. When an algorithm can’t be sure of how dark an area between a dark and a bright spot must be, it make the transition gradually causing the “HDR Effect” where, for example, the sky gets brighter the closer you get to the horizon, building, subject.

Hot glass emits sodium vapors. Sodium vapors block the wavelength of the light that the film is sensitive to. The torch emits on wider spectrum so the torch flames are leaving an impression on the film.
Glassblowers didymium goggles block the torches spectrum but can’t hide the hot sodium emitting light. The hot gas that you can see when looking though glassblowers goggles is what looks black in your photo.
- Comment on How did a simple phone call become so problematic? 2 months ago:
Because the more serious discussion the more time I want to have to be able to convey myself concisely and prepared. Phone calls can be awkward and reactionary. plus how the fuck have we not yet solved phone audio quality and consistency problems.
