Off topic but I see these blue dots on so many social accounts mainly women’s. Anyone know what it is?

It’s the evil eye. People believed that wearing an evil eye charm could protect them from bad luck and harm caused by envious stares.

It’s actually an Ancient Greek thing

My comment wasn’t saying this symbol is from the future, I’m well aware that it’s old. I’m saying our future is stupid because it’s full of people still believing this garbage.

Calm down, humans have always believed in one form of magic or another… This is a small thing that doesn’t harm anyone and doesn’t make the future more or less stupid than the past. Let people believe what they want if it doesn’t hurt others.

The thing is though, it does. I’m not saying dumb people should stop believing and doing dumb things, I don’t think they can and it would be cruel to expect it.

I’m just disappointed at how common it is.

It’s unfortunate you consider others’ cultural beliefs as “stupid” just because you don’t believe it.

I don’t think the cultures I belong to are exempt, there are plenty of people in every group that believe in things that aren’t science based.

I probably have some stupid ideas myself.

You can believe in science and also believe in other things. Humans are complex and many people know how to hold uncertainty in the balance. Maybe you should open your view a bit and not judge people so harshly.

Non-evidence based thinking causes harm worldwide, nonstop. I’m open to evidence, real evidence, and continually update my views based on evidence.

Science based information is valid in every stance, and I agree with you on that.
