If only politicians were held up to the same standards when it came to being in positions of conflict of interest.

The guy is just trying to cash out as much money out of Reddit as he can until people realize how overvalued the site really is.

And now resorting to a strawman argument. Michael never said that medical effects didn’t apply. You really need to watch that video again. And I also agreed that medical factors had an influence. Last paragraph of the comment you just replied to: “which is affected by both medical and subjective factors”

Ah yes. Cherry picking an example of recurring fashion. That definitely proves that fashion and style never changes or evolves ever. /s

If you’ve truly watched that video then it must be a long time ago and are remembering it wrong. Because it does say exactly what you’re saying early on in the video, explaining the studies that show how people are now younger from a medical point of view. You then clearly see that the age difference reported in the study from a medical point if view is not nearly wide enough to explain the magnitude of the difference of we perceive in real life.

This is why video then shifts away from the purely medical perspective towards the more subjective reasons that could affect how we perceive people’s age. Of course it’s not gonna be backed by medical research to support this because the other reasons for this phenomena has absolutely nothing to do with medical science. Medical science doesn’t give a shit about the evolution of fashion in haircuts, makeup and clothing. But that doesn’t mean that it cannot have an effect on people’s perceptions of other’s age. It is obvious in the examples provided in the video that this has a far greater effect on the perception of someone’s age than the medical explanation alone.

The meme itself is obviously about people’s perception of people’s age, which is affected by both medical and subjective factors like the evolution of fashion. Trying to pretend that only the medical factor counts is, essentially, ignoring the other half of the argument just to make yourself sound right.

It’s almost like you cropped out the other half of the argument

Fox News: “Bilionaires should pay their fair share”

OK.

It is because when you look back to old pictures of people from when they were younger, the people in it have clothing styles and hairstyles that we today associate with older people.

Look up a video on YouTube from VSauce called “Did people used to look older?”. They explain this phenomena well.

Just deleted my Reddit account. I haven’t used it in over a year now anyway. I was waiting for something like this to make a statement.

And that the “increased community engagement” isn’t mainly comments of people complaining about being tricked into clicking on an ad.

I bet the “community engagement comments” are just people warning others that it is an ad

I thought he was going to say "It looks like a rock to everyone else around you and they’re constantly making interventions about your apparent obsession with overprotecting your ‘pet rock’ "
