  You wear a tinfoil cap to keep the radio waves from controlling your brain.

  I wear a tinfoil cap to keep my brain’s waves from interfering with nearby electronics.

  We are not the same.

  Someone did a study at MIT about tin foil hats, and found that not only do they not screen radio interference, in some cases, can actually magnify them.

  Conclusion: The helmets amplify frequency bands that coincide with those allocated to the US government between 1.2 Ghz and 1.4 Ghz. According to the FCC, These bands are supposedly reserved for ‘‘radio location’’ (ie, GPS), and other communications with satellites (see, for example, [3]). The 2.6 Ghz band coincides with mobile phone technology. Though not affiliated by government, these bands are at the hands of multinational corporations. It requires no stretch of the imagination to conclude that the current helmet craze is likely to have been propagated by the Government, possibly with the involvement of the FCC. We hope this report will encourage the paranoid community to develop improved helmet designs to avoid falling prey to these shortcomings.

    So tinfoil hats are pushed by the mind-controllers, and those that are persuaded by this weak signal start wearing them to receive the signal more strongly and be mind-controlled more thoroughly

      Exactly what the mind controllers want you to think. They want you to think they don’t work, but I know, I know the truth!

    Correction: someone did a study at MIT about aluminum helmets, not tin foil hats. The important distinction being aluminum vs. tin.

    Word to the wise: Only buy tin for your protective day wear, as it hasn’t been proven ineffective at blocking radio waves by MIT, unlike aluminum. Stay safe out there!

      aluminum vs. tin

      isnt most if not all tinfoilj just aluminum foil these days? It’s one of the legacy terms that nobody really uses anymore.

    I assumed she just didn’t want to argue with a toddler who desperately wanted her to wear that. I mean, pick your battles. Save the energy for a bigger one and wear a tinfoil hat. But the present thing would be much more wholesome

    • Fades@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      You’re putting words in my mouth, I said nothing about what intelligence the kids get, all I said is stupids people are more likely to procreate due to less critical thinking and long term planning, thus creating a sort of cycle. I’m talking behavioral and developmental barriers coupled with economic pressure

      Nothing at all to do with genetics.

  I’m waiting for the day someone wears a tinfoil hat specifically to protect only their head from beta radiation from something stupid like a pile of slightly radioactive rocks from a mine.
