Yes, I do still browse reddit, mainly for hockey and some niche subs that aren't here yet. Once in a while I dip my toes into r/all to see the garbage that floats to the top and this one popped up today.
r/conspiracy has always been a shithole, but when I first saw this post I thought it was on a meme sub, but no, those morons actually believe this shit. Truly blows my mind how amazingly stupid a lot of people are.

If you're expecting any kind of critical thinking or even the slightest bit of intelligence, then you won't find it in that sub lmao

No clear evolutionary path in the fossil record.
...for the creatures that have no bones and only a beak that could even fossilize? Color me SHOCKED their ancestors didn't leave fossils.

I don't think they realize that aquatic based life on earth had several hundred extra million years to evolve before even the most basic bitch fish-frogs crawled out of the primordial pond of orgy water that ended up spawning us

plenty of sea critters have blue blood
horseshoe crab blood (blue) is even widely used to verify disinfection procedures

Without reading the title I looked at the image and thought someone was cooking octopus and really really burnt it.

At least these are fun and amusing conspiracies that don’t hurt anyone.
Back in the day it was a bunch of trumpers butthurt that they had to wear a mask.

I used to browse r/SaturnStormCube and the like for occultist story ideas so I'm used to crazy. But this is just full blown stupidity. There was 1 redditor talking about arms, and they said it had 10.

Remember now we also have... Trumpers that don't care if Trump hypothetically rapes their own child because he'd hypothetically be doing it for hypothetical good reasons... and also that Democrats control the weather

You... are looking at a fossil of one. That's what the post is about. I mean, maybe they fossilize less frequent than other animals, but it seems like they do.

People forget. Back in the day it was talk about Libor and NSA abusing FISA and UFO coverups, much of which was actual conspiracy not theory. It wasn’t clearly aligned politically, just suspicious of power. The trumplings didn’t show up for quite a few years and quickly shit all over the floor.

Unfortunately if you have a tendency to buy into one fact-denying conspiracy, then you have a tendency to buy into all of them. That is why these kinds of conspiracy theories are always a pipeline into fascism.

The fact that there are very few fossils of soft bodied creatures kinda misses the point.
All the evolutionary diversity of molluscs is still alive. Squids, nautiluses, cuttlefish, snails slugs.
What’s the hypothesis here? An alien meteorite landed with 800 types of cephalopod, that just by chance share 97% of their DNA with slugs and snails that already existed on Earth?

Small discussion about this fossil on Lemmy yesterday:
https://mander.xyz/post/34422423
To recap: that's not the correct age or species. Soft tissues do make fossils. This protooctopus looks different from modern octopi.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Yup. It's not that soft tissue DOESN'T fossilize, it's just that the conditions to do so are much rarer, and soft tissue is obviously much more susceptible to degradation before fossilization.

I read about that. It made me feel bad for the horseshoe crabs.

Resident alien has a funny gag related to this where the alien saw an octopus in a restaurant and the octopus said we've been waiting for you!
