In case anyone wants the answer, it's late December 1938, when two physicists went for a walk in the snow near Stockholm to discuss findings a colleague sent via letter.
The real question is: and????
So we're harvesting demonic forces to power our shit?
That's fuckin' metal duuuuude. If you're trying to make nuclear sound bad you failed.
Looking at the content of the message and the name of the source, I thought this had to be satire. But the site seems to be an actual news site, and other news sites corroborate the story. Which brings me to the question I wanted to ask:
WHEN THE FUCK DID WE LEARN HOW TO MAKE GUNS TUCKER, HUH??? I WOULD LIKE YOU HEAR YOU ANSWER THIS QUESTION, WAS IT LITERALLY FUCKING GOD WHO CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN AND WENT "hey guys check out this sick thing i just did" PLEASE TUCKER, PLEASE TELL ME.
Leave it to religions to get insanely mad about characters and beliefs they made up. It's such a dumb fucking thing. Then blame everything on "demons". Big talk for someone coming from the one country that literally committed warcrimes with nuclear technology.
Richard Rhodes' The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a great book that kind of explains all that in detail...
but i would say it is either the Curie's experiments, discovering the neutron, splitting the atom, Fermi's reactor, or the tests during the Manhattan project; all really well documented.
I feel like I've been waiting to come down from my high since the first time I tried pot...
Like fuck this is a long high, I know when it wears off it'll have only been like three seconds and I"ll be back in 2008 ready to go see Dragonforce at the House of Blues...... but fuck
Tucker is the consummate media insider and comes right out of the rich elite. He has not gone crazy - he is just cornering a niche of crazies, to whom he will sell vitamins and demon repellent.
It's the reason why we should stick to using fossil fuel. God left us dragon poop for a reason, we're supposed to burn the hell out of it, and the earth with it.
It does again show that these people are like irrational, unscientific, religious cultists.
We, as in humanity, should aim to progress away from such a dark past, not regress back into one. That way lies madness.
