    Last time this was posted, it was proven that the original post is satire. She posts random jokes on her insta, that tweet just took a screenshot and made a rage bait.

      It does look like the aluminum foil you can get at the Costco food court, and this does look like Costco. Makes for a free Faraday Cage for your phone tho.

    Why not just line a baseball cap or wizard hat or something? Foil is pretty delicate by itself anyway.

      Because it’s not about blocking mind control. It’s about showing others that you know “more” than they do.

        I’d imagine the wizard hat does that much better though, he could know Spawn Calling or some shit.

      It’s not about the utility of it (which is literally zero), it’s about making the statement.

    There’s a paper published somewhere on the effectiveness of tin foil hats. It turned out that “traditional” designs actually acted to focus RF energy onto the brain.

    It’s been years since I saw the paper, unfortunately, so I don’t have a link to hand.

      The open end of this hat makes it a resonator not a faraday cage. She needs a full suit to keep out em waves. This is more akin to bird plumage that puts her particular brand of crazy on full display.

      5G was designed for adults; kids only get like 2G so they only receive SMS or, if fortunate MMS with some cool tunes.

        I agree clothes-shaming is more than a little weird but that shade of yellow is not her color. At least according the tones in this photo. I’d tell her to go for something more pastel if she’s horny for yellow.

          Hm. Agree to disagree. Pastel would not be that visible, but maybe I just have a weird taste.

    Doesn’t the POV imply that the person who isn’t mind controlled is the camera? So the aluminum foil-hat crazy IS BEING MIND CONTROLLED!!

      POV doesn’t have a meaning, it’s just one of those artifacts that’s been around for so long that we’ve lost the knowledge. One day we may discover its meaning but for now it’s like the pyramids or those memes that start with “Nobody:”

            You wrote POV has no meaning. But it stands for point-of-view.

            I was asking if it was a joke that you wrote that it has no meaning.

            That said the joke of OP doesn’t work because it is not a POV.
