Production values are poor, to say the least. If she turned down her
mic she could move it closer to her mouth and skip some of that
cheap echo. And I don't know what she's using for a camera but,
damn, she's all washed out...
And she's trying to act -- emphasis on "Trying."
Not the least bit natural. Maybe she's just an insincere person and
comes across like that all the time, maybe she's attempting to
create a persona online... and failing. Don't really care which is the
answer here, just noting the result: Insincere.
SEVERE use of Ad hominem.. to the point of overkill. She Opens with
a mindless smear on Aquatic Ape itself then smears this Robert
Sepehr, only to then claim that she won't!
THEN, while pretending to make it about Aquatic Ape, she says it's
all about this Robert Sepehr and his supporters... Wow, she's just into
a cult of personality here... I'm only four minutes in an already threw
up in my mouth.
I honestly don't care how she or ANYONE else feels. Talk facts or
talk shit, and this one is talking shit.
Goddamnit, she's a moron! She's spewing about the here & now, what
people are doing now, pretending she's talking about human origins!
She also argues AGAINST HERSELF! In her mindless spewing about
water, she says that's a mammal thing and humans need water, but
then she talks about "natural adaptations" that mammals who live
away from water -- pointing out that she's wrong! Water is significant.
We lack these "natural adaptations" so... THINK, BITCH! If mammals
CAN live away from the water, they develop natural adaptations, and
we lack such adaptations, then "Oh we're just mammals, and all
mammals need to be near water that's why we're near water" is stupid.
Self defeating. Stupid.
AND THEN we consider it's all totally off topic, because she is NOT
speaking in a paleo context. She's not explaining how Coastal
Dispersal can be a thing without our ancestors exploiting the marine
environment!
Were they carrying around a savanna on their backs? Ordering out?
Pizza, maybe?
Like all mouth breathers, this one needs to divorce Aquatic Ape from
all context -- humans origins, paleo anthropology -- in order to
misrepresent & misunderstand it... attack it... emotionally.
Okay. And she's actually wasting everyone's time "Arguing" that humans
aren't "Relatively Hairless." Come on. This is stupid. She even goes so
far as to claim that we are just as hairy as most other primates!
She's counting number of hairs, and not how much of the body is covered
by hair.
HINT: It's about how much of the body, the skin, is exposed, not the number
of hairs! When we talk about "Hairless" humans we're speaking of exposed
area, not raw numbers.
A "Bald" man, for example, generally has as many hairs as someone who is
not bald. But the hairs never grow beyond a short, whispy strand and the
dormant stages between hairs is lengthened. So does this mean no bald
men are bald or that this women is an idiot who is grasping at straws?
AND THEN she proposes that sweat glands are why we're less hairy, and
not an Aquatic Ape stage!
Do savanna jackass ever stop and listen to themselves?
"We're not less hairy! Besides, we're only less hairy because we have all
these sweat glands!"
AND THIS IGNORES THE FACT THAT AQUATIC APE PROVIDES AN EXCELLENT
REASON FOR THOSE SWEAT GLANDS!
Sweating gets rid of water and salt, two things an Aquatic Ape ancestors
would have been consuming in abundance.
She either believes "Aquatic Ape" is French for "Sea Monkeys" or she's as
disingenuous as all her insincerity suggests. After all, the topic is human
origins so comparisons to/differences from apes makes sense, while
differences from whales does not. NOBODY except disingenuous wannabes
is claiming that "Aquatic Ape" means our ancestors were living the same
lifestyles as whales or sea lions...
Anyway, I'm at 12.5 minutes and the pain of seeing this poor woman like
that, her upper lip crazy glued to her teeth, has become too much for me.
But, even the exhaustive body of flaws thus far there doesn't appear to be
much point in continuing.
