    I think there’s something quite disturbing about the fact that we have all had to become image analysis experts just because everything we see every day is so hard to believe

      nah its ok. humans like to see patterns and whatnot and when we get stuff we’re not used to we tend to go "nuh uh! >=(”

      human brains are working as intended.

        That’s the problem. A critical component of living in and maintaining a civilized society as that we can, collectively, rise above how our animalistic primitive monkey brains work. You know, for the betterment of our collective selves and all that. When we fail to do that, we find ourselves in the situation we are in right now.
