Dude, there are whole industries based on cutting down trees once they have grown.

What are you smoking? ... can I have some?

Very small. In fact, the test subjects happened to have the same names as the researchers. What a coincidence.

It took two years to do the transformation. Do you think it'll be difficult to do another transformation when the time comes?

Overweight can mean "over the weight that is healthy for this individual".

Actually the 100 families that "control" the world do so because they are obscenely wealthy due to inherited wealth and familial connections. Some of them just happen to be Jewish, so there's no point in focussing on that fact.

Look through this list and find how many of them have Jewish heritage.

You're 41. No one is stopping you from buying and eating gummy snacks.

Don't let your dreams be dreams.

Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses.

Sorry, I wasn't explaining myself well.

Just because a story isn't factually true, doesn't mean that it has no value, or negative value. There are other types of values which can supersede factual value:

  • aesthetic
  • symbolic
  • ethical
  • didactic

Truth isn't always about facts. Sometimes factual statements can be used as a weapon of deceit.

If a narrative is not literally true, does that mean it has no truth value?

People might have been busy thinking about something else at the time.

“apple” used to be a generic term for fruit.

Oh, that explains the myth that Adam and Eve at an apple, when a specific fruit is never mentioned.
