  • I think you could sell it by being very vague and not claiming it actually does anything.

    As an example, just rattle off a bunch of insanity as necessary to convince idiots that you “get it” like “keep your blood pure”, then do what lots of supplements do with super vague meaningless claims like “Contains Iron which essential for your blood to function properly”










  • In all of my ecology classes they were super specific about re-framing that concept as “survival of the fit enough”

    You don’t actually have to be the best example of something to have your traits carried along, just good enough to consistently make it to reproductive age and then procreate.

    It helps explain a lot of weird survival mechanisms - it doesn’t have to be the best way to do things but if it consistently works, then it’s good enough. Like the old saying “if it’s stupid, but it works, then it’s not stupid”
