gollark: Your quote, not the video which I have ignored.
gollark: Well, it's hardly a good-faith attempt to explain a point or something, and you're unlikely to make anyone actually do much about it by saying it again.
gollark: > Ah, yes, this video says saint Einstein is wrong therefore he is a moron indeed.> Ah, yesis generally used to precede "gotcha" sort of things i.e. snappy "arguments" which don't really mean much> saint Einsteinis basically you just pushing the whole "science = religion" thing you like

gollark: Thank you for the useful activity of quoting yourself saying something 4 hours ago.
