See my other post below for a little more context, but basically it showed that people will do awful things if someone in authority tells them to

Well yes and no. You can say that it’s just the people in any experiment but past a certain point you have to be able to extrapolate the results to the population at large. And (again, if memory serves) the results of this experiment have been replicated numerous times across numerous population samples.

Also, the point of Milgram isn’t that people are fucked up, it’s that people will follow orders when those orders are issued by someone in a perceived position of authority. And it’s funny you mention Nazis because the experiment was Milgram’s response to the “I was just following orders” defence from the Nuremberg trials.

In conclusion: non-fucked-up people will do fucked up things if their boss tells them to.

If I correctly remember my psychology lessons from 10+ years ago though, the results of Milgram’s experiment has been reproduced countless times which sort of backs up the original point.

Your argument is really “Indian isn’t a race”?

Are you telling me a new Half Life game came out three years ago and I missed it?

It’s definitely racist when you say that those are Indian family values. It’s not racist is you say those are Sunak family values.

I would say it’s more like the shape of a duck

Okay, fair enough. That’s not something I’ve ever encountered. Sorry my tone offended you - I wasn’t trying to be a dick.

I think any reconstruction of a dinosaur where there is just a skull as a refence point will be taken with a fairly large pinch of salt. However, many dinosaurs look fairly similar to other dinosaurs that we do have more complete fossils as reference, so they’ll end up being based on those as well.

Yeah the stuff on the knife is scales, but the silver on the fish is just the skin. The scales are attached to that.

I’d be really surprised if you’re finding any fish in big supermarkets that still have scales, even on a whole fish but particularly on a fillet.

You will typically find skin on or skin off fillets, and depending on the fish recipes might instruct to cook them skin side down so you can have a nice crispy texture alongside the softer flesh.

What you’re describing as scales are not, in fact, the scales. It’s just the skin of the fish The scales are removed before the fish is butchered. And yes you can eat it, it’s not uncommon.
