Yeah, they're the VHS of video calling software.

Thanks so much attempting to bring at least some nuance into this discussion. But the cold hard truth is that no one really wants to know, because you'll sleep a lot better if this is all just mumbojumbo.
Unfortunately though, here is a research paper straight from a US government server that basically describes how it works in theory, with the following title:
Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025
Scroll through the document. Read it. Then compare the technology to what's being claimed about HAARP and other weather manipulation tech. I know there are insane people out there who'll make the most insane claims but for every 100th nutjob there's 1 person out there who actually read up on the stuff that's available and often they're a lot more hesitant on calling it all just a hoax.
Unfortunately the truth is that people don't care. Just look at the rhetoric used in these comments. Why would scientists come forward and risk being doxxed, ratted out to their employer as a lunatic conspiracy nut, claiming that is might be possible, even if just in theory?
We had the mayor of Ankara in Turkey claiming that artificial earth quakes were used against Turkey way before 2023, though the USS Nitze docked in a Turkish port in the Black Sea just a couple of days before the February 6th earthquakes), right when Turkey was stalling for Sweden to join NATO. There's videos out there of people filming bright blue-ish lights coming from a central source the night before the earthquakes happened.
The longest time I thought this was all bullshit but the more I dug into it, the less I was able to convince myself that this is all just made up nonsense from idiots on the Internet. I'm not on the "it's all HAARP!!" train but come on, let's keep the discussion a bit more civil?
It's because they're corrupt and young people are just as susceptible to lobbyists bribes, unfortunately. The gerontocracy doesn't make things better though, that's for sure.
China discovered that Lemmy exists and sent their bots here, it's so obvious! No thinking person would ever doubt Western media!!!111
(Not saying that one empire is better than the other, yadda yadda)
I'm so tired of the notion that anyone not being in line with certain narratives is automatically considered a drone.
I read in books how common it is, but seeing it happen in that WikiLeaks helicopter video made me feel sick for a week.
I hated imperialism (especially US) way before but I'll never forget how they killed these journalists only to mow down random villagers who only wanted to help.
Who stopped doing so? It's basically one of the terms used most often when referring to Russian aggression since the war started?
"Things are the way they are."
Seriously.
Definitely, I didn't mean to sound too defeatist.
