  • Not entirely. Statistics are a powerful tool, and their primary purpose is to discern order from entropy. We expect that, much like spilled marbles, the universe should form like scattered, chaotic clumps of density and sparseness with no rhyme or reason save the relatively simple interractions through gravitational forces. And it’s also those forces that dictate the simple repeating structures of disk-shaped clusters orbiting a point called a galaxy, who’s inner workings are, statistically, as chaotic as water molecules swirling in microgravity without breaking surface tension. Finding highly ordered structures under the scale of a galaxy and greater than a lightyear would to any statistician look like an outlier of the highest order and worth looking into.

    Now as a layperson, I could see 100 billion marbles forming many shapes we would consider going against entropy, but if a statistician goes “oh that’s odd,” then it’s probably significant.



  • You generalize westerners quite a lot. You think we don’t have a shrewed eye for the corporate and political interests around us that influence our lives directly? I can clearly see that you box people into the “us and them” categories and judge others at a glance. “Think for yourself” indeed. To the fool, anyone they see is a fool first, until proven otherwise.

    It’s mass media. It’s all “propoganda” for someone’s interest whenever money or an agenda is involved. Click here. Read more. Sponsored by. You’re not smart for whatabouting a South Korean source who indeed would put their interests first like any other source of for-profit media. They all do it. And not just in the “western capitalist empire” either.

    So I ask again, what is different about this article that I couldn’t find anywhere else with other narratives besides where the info comes from? Or is it solely that it is the western narrative that you seem to tire of?
