Study by MIT: “Indeed, anti-maskers often reveal themselves to be more sophisticated in their understanding of how scientific knowledge is socially constructed than their ideological adversaries, who espouse naïve realism about the “objective” truth of public health data.”

Found this interesting paper on “Anti-maskers” by MIT: Link to Study

Some interesting quotes:

(From the Abstract): “This paper investigates how pandemic visualizations circulated on social media, and shows that people who mistrust the scientific estab- lishment often deploy the same rhetorics of data-driven decision- making used by experts, but to advocate for radical policy changes.” (p 1)

“As science and technology studies (STS) scholars have shown, data is not a neutral substrate that can be used for good or for ill [14, 46]. Indeed, anti-maskers often reveal themselves to be more sophisticated in their understanding of how scientific knowledge is socially constructed than their ideological adversaries, who espouse naive realism about the “objective” truth of public health data.” (p 2)

“In other words, anti-maskers value unmediated access to information and privilege personal research and direct reading over ‘expert’ interpretations.”

“For anti-maskers, valid science must be a process they can critically engage for themselves in an unmediated way. Increased doubt, not consensus, is the marker of scientific certitude. Arguing that anti-maskers simply need more scientific literacy is to characterize their approach as uninformed and inexplicably extreme. This study shows the opposite: users in these communities are deeply invested in forms of critique and knowledge production that they recognize as markers of scientific expertise. If anything, anti-mask science has extended the traditional tools of data analysis by taking up the theoretical mantle of recent critical studies of visualization”. (p 14)

“This paper has investigated anti-mask counter-visualizations on social media in two ways: quantitatively, we identify the main types of visualizations that are present within different networks (e.g., pro- and anti-mask users), and we show that anti-mask users are prolific and skilled purveyors of data visualizations.” (p 15)

“But as Hullman shows, there are at least two major reasons why uncertainty hasn’t traditionally been communicated to the public [54]. Researchers often do not believe that people will under- stand and be able to interpret results that communicate uncertainty (which, as we have shown, is a problematic assumption at best).” (p 16)

Not sure if this post will be allowed here, but I

Did Kant believe in representationalism or naïve realism?

Michael Martin believes in naïve realism, and this chart implies that Kant might have supported representationalism but the chart could be misleading if not outright wrong. Furthermore Martin speaks in the wake of the formulation of quantum mechanics and Kant spoke beforehand. Therefore Martin is in a better position to know. I'm just wondering if Kant believed in representationalism.

If we see an object X as Y, this is our view of the world around us. Such content can be real or not. If real, we are dealing with a genuine perception. Otherwise, it is an illusion or a hallucination. Usually those who embrace representationalism contend that naive realism supporters fail to explain phenomena such as hallucinations and illusions.

Overcoming "naïve realism"?

"Naïve realism is the human tendency to believe that we see the world around us objectively, and that people who disagree with us must be uninformed, irrational, or biased."

I clearly heavily suffer from this, because I do believe that I see things objectively, and everyone else is incorrect until they present me with better information or evidence. As a career scientist, when I'm presented with new, better information, I discard my former theories with ease. I'll probably get a lot of downvotes for this, but currently I believe that if you're not a vegan, a socialist/liberal, or an atheist, then you're doing it wrong. I think that if you disagree, you're on the lower end of the Dunning-Kruger effect. Is there actually a way to see reality objectively? Does anyone see things objectively? Can I become accepting that I'm biased, or can I remove my bias? I hope you guys know that I'm just being honest and would like to know how I can overcome these things and see the error of my ways. Thank you.

What are the philosophical implications of Naïve Realism?

On its surface, naïve realism appears to be a very straightforward and simple worldview: that what you perceive with your senses is what is really real. Yet it's a view taken seriously by several serious philosophers and rejected in equal measure by many others. So what are the logical ramifications of viewing the world through this "naïve" lens?

A method to recognize your naïve realism and solve the frustration of misunderstanding

In social psychology, [naïve realism][1] is the human tendency to believe that we see the world around us objectively, and that people who disagree with us must be uninformed, irrational, or biased. It is considered as one of the four major insights in the field.

The three tenets that make up a naïve realist:

  • Believe that they see the world objectively and without bias.
  • Expect that others will come to the same conclusions, so long as they are exposed to the same information and interpret it in a rational manner.
  • Assume that others who do not share the same views must be ignorant, irrational, or biased.

This makes conversations frustrating, because no side intentionally wants to claim that they know the whole truth, yet the talk is still heated because the naïve realists in both will always kick in. For example, when we break a rule to do something beneficial for others, in our mind we are helping them, but it is very easy to be misconstrued as, well, breaking the rule. We see our action as selfless, but since they perceive it as selfish, they refuse to help us to help them. And this is very frustrating.

Naïve realism is just one component that lead to frustrations in communication. There are many more: illusion of transparency (or the curse of knowledge), cognitive load, tip of the tongue phenomenon, attitude, etc. To deal with such frustrations, we tend to use clichés like "let's agree to disagree", or "let's bygone be bygone". There is an element of truth in them, but they don't fully satisfy us. Something is unfulfilled, but we cannot pinpoint exactly what.

To unify and attack all such problems in one place, I propose a theory and would like to have your feedback. The applications of the theory and the questions that each of them trying to answer will be:

  • Analogy: Why do analogies help us understand a problem we don't understand? How to reason with analogy without making logical fallacy?
  • Writing: How to explain a concept when the novice really lacks background? What does it mean to have a transformative writing? What does "big picture" really mean?
  • Finding the balance point: Why are efforts to be adaptive become maladaptive? Why is it hard to balance between disciplinary and flexibility? How to stop the indecisiveness without worrying of doing wrong?
  • Communication & perspective taking: Why do people keep misunderstand each other? Why do others keep distorting our words? Why don't we

Respect Mr. Bean (Mr. Bean/Bean/Mr. Bean's Holiday/Comic Relief)

> Bean

  • Mr. Bean

#Lore

Mr. Bean (his full legal name) is a middle-aged British man who spends his time doing leisure activities and menial tasks despite no steady income streams. Occasionally, this includes international travel. Wherever he goes he is either the cause, the victim, or both, of some kind of comedic mischief.

#Details

The following feats span the original 1990-1995 TV show, several appearances on Red Nose Day: Comic Relief, and the feature-length Bean (1997) and Mr. Bean's Holiday (2007). It includes spoilers for all of the above (seriously, I'm revealing a majority of punchlines in the original series). The 2002-2019 cartoon series was not included, due to its more - well - cartoony approach to realism.

This will not be as purely respectful of a thread as others, as the portrayal of Mr. Bean is a flawed one. In the interests of creating an accurate summary of Mr. Bean's capabilities, these flaws will also be mentioned (even at the risk of appearing disrespectful). I still post this thread with the intention that Mr. Bean be respected as a competitor, as I believe the positives far outweigh the negatives.

[Either/Or] refers to traits whose usefulness in a competitive scenario is context sensitive

Appreciation and gratitude for the anime medium

Just wanted to share a personal anecdote.It's been around 8 years since I joined the anime community or rather discovered the anime medium. My entire childhood was shaped by shows like Dragon Ball Z, but my naïve self never thought it was something foreign. In the transition years i was mostly engaged in Hollywood movies like Godfather, Shawshank etc. and reading a few novels here and there. Then i discovered TV series like breaking bad, the wire, Hannibal. All of them were okay for a while. But the more i looked for substance, realism and meaning in the stories, they felt so lacking and shallow. As if it weren't human. There was no heart in it. I was drowning in a sea of stagnation and mediocrity. Then one day..on a whim..I clicked on a video on YouTube titled Death Note episode 1. And that was it. I was zoned in. The gates were open.. As time passed i experienced stories like Fate Zero, Violet evergarden, Ghibli movies, Shingeki no kyojin, Ghost in the shell, Evangelion and countless more..series and movies alike. Each one of them were filled with such rich storytelling, philosophies, depth that moved me to tears. Some of them so influential that shaped me who i am today. Stories that depict the nature of life and death. Stories that depict discovering oneself. I never imagined that there were such a plethora of stories out there. I feel grateful everyday of my life for the existence of this beautiful medium. Sure there were awful ones too.. But that is true for every medium. But when you look for the good and heartfelt stories in both mediums. Anime takes the cake.

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

My essay on Hiyoko "banana brat" Saionji (TLDR in the comments)

My essay on the most misunderstood and overhated character in the series, that being Hiyoko, now before anyone says "her backstory doesn't excuse her actions", I'm aware(though people use far worse characters backstories to excuse their actions) and not once will i defend what she did, rather i intend to explain them and also explain that she had many good features and depth that people ignore. warning this is super long so read at your own pace or just read the TLDR in the comments

Design

Now much like Hiyoko herself her design is very under appreciated. You can see her love for traditional Japanese culture and her talent in her design and I love the hidden details such as the baby bird seen on both the front and back of her kimono and her kitten hairclips and like Fuyuhiko she has permanent blush stickers, her adorable design perfectly suits her cutesy yet bitchy personality and its hilarious to me how she goes from the shortest character in the game to towering over Mahiru. Also carries on the trend of the blond character of the game being a brat haha(Kaede and Sonia and to an extent Twogami very much avert this but Fuyuhiko, Togami and Miu very much apply here). Its not my favourite of 2(Mahiru, Mikan and Ibuki are joint first there) but she’s a pretty memorable character design wise.

Personality(the negative aspects)

Ah both the best and worst thing about Hiyoko is her personality. Lets start off with the bad, her bullying Mikan is beyond shitty and not easy to watch and I’m starting to wish Kodaka dropped it because it went nowhere and it does nothing for her character, Hiyoko is in general quite arrogant, blunt, and snobby. She reminds me a bit of Byakuya in that she’s just done with everyone, but like him this makes her very entertaining if quite insufferable at times. It’s a mask really to defend herself after a lifetime of living with a family that hated her and dodging assassination, that’s not an excuse but it is understandable why she turned out that way. Both her and Mikan showcases the two extremes of a reaction to bullying, in Mikan’s case she became very weak-willed and unable to remotely stand up for herself and wanted to please other people including her bullies, she didn’t want to be alone. In Hiyoko’s case, she became cold and bitter constantly insulting others to drive them away, she vowed not to be a victim again and sadly she took that out on the wrong people as a result. She hides behind this image of calling herself “p

Just because it's a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub
