Uncle Bob breaking down the classic Doomsday playbook of "insert magic into the equation to make the equation work."
It goes like this:
Doomer: I've just given you a realistic scenario of the end times, you just won't admit it!
Skeptic: I mean, I read it. So your premise is seriously that nano machines kill us all? Like you know those don't exist right? And neither do automated virus labs, etc..
Doomer: But what if they DID exist and I inserted this magic non-existent thing into my equation, would my equation work then?
Skeptic: Well yeah but...
Doomer: Ah ha, so you admit it! Case closed. If we had nano machines and automated viral labs we would all diiieeeee...
Skeptic: No what I meant was obviously if you insert a magical variable into an equation it works but that's not realistic...
Doomer: Case closed. We're all going to die!!!! I'm not going to save for retirement anymore and do lots of drugs.
