Retards on this board claim astrology to be fact? Seriously?

And here I was thinking 4ailchan in 2017 was at the very least distinct from tumblr and leddit

Its the other way around OP.
Occult literally mean "hidden"
There are many stuff you wouldnt learn anywhere there are just too hard to find because they have their own format.

>>18558461

It's bullshit OP. The whole lot of it. Otherwise we'd have utter fucking chaos.

>>18558461
lol yeah hypnosis is totally fake. it hasn't been used effectively for over a hundred years. it's all just make believe just like cigarettes being bad for you.

>>18558461
divination
magic
fucking tulpas

>>18559106
Being into the occult tricks people into closely crosscomparing religions with the end result making someone extremely well versed in the Bible.

>telepathic/telekinesis

Yeah except http://deanradin.com/evidence/evidence.htm

>>18560109
hypnosis is real, using theta, alpha, and beta waves behind music or videos will produce different emotional responses that can trigger you to do things you wouldn't normally do.. and that's all hypnosis is, just doing something you wouldn't normally do

>when "Skeptics" come here and act like cleverdicks, but they don't realise they're the only ones not in on the joke

>>18558461

there's some degree of creedence to the fact that hypnotherapy is an effective treatment for recovering smokers/alcoholics.

"it doesnt exist" is the dross the cattle is best ruled under, so that those who know how to use these powers can completely control you
this is the raison d'être of atheism and skeptical materialism

It has no scientific basis or proof. Bleeding was used as a "cure" for hundreds of years and they thought it worked, but we now know it's completely retarded. The same goes for hypnosis.

>>18560138
>>18560128
These are not credible "studies". Not only are most of them not double-blind or even have a control group, but none of them are from acredited institutions. It's bullshit like "The European Telekinesis Journal". My point stands.

>/x/ has the lowest IQ per capita of any board
This is probably true, but I'd love to see the distribution. /x/ also has the occasional (and increasingly rare) philosophical "metaphysics" threads (with much more antirealistic overall viewpoints than similar discussions in /his/ or /sci/) with really interesting discussions and materials being distributed, and then there's the 99.8% of content consisting of vampire roleplaying, popular astrology and cheap spooks.

hey OP! next let's go to /a/ and post a thread asking people to list all the reasons Anime sucks and anyone who watches it is a fag.

We don't need your approval for validation must be pseudoscience too, huh OP?

>>18558461
Hypnosis is def real. Although you have to allow yourself to get into that headspace regardless if someone is conducting it or not. Hypnosis and trance states are the same thing, and trance states are proven by science. As far as black and white swirls that wipe your memory and tell you to do things... not so much. Although there's plenty of verified documentation of the CIA experimenting with mind control. Ad agencies and big time marketeers use hypnosis by making material wealth appeal to our survival instincts with buzz words meant to stimulate our interest.

>>18560762
>inb4 "but u said u have to hypnotize itself and allow it"
Ad agencies are very good at making you think you want something. I.e. Manipulation. Take this subtle for of power and basically project it over every year in society and that's how hypnotism really works

This isn't pseudoscience. It is schizophrenia. Get it right.

>thinking you're some sort of "chosen one"
What are you saying filthy go- I mean my good friend, don't you know the Jews are G-d's chosen people? This is quite anti-semitic, I think I'll have to report you to the ADL.

Hey kids, hypnosis is indeed a real thing. Plus it's a skill you can learn. I'm not gonna tell you to, but seriously, do it.

>>18558461
Wait, is there seriously people not knowing hypnosis is a serious, non paranormal real factual science ? I mean ... It's not even weird ...

hypnotic regression is fake, not hypnoisis as a stage trick

>>18560169
Dude Dean Radin is as legit as it gets. Because of people like you it takes a generation of bitter old hypocrites dying off before science can advance.

Hypnosis doesn't even pretend to be magic bullshit.

>>18558486
As someone participating in the astrology thread, I don't actually believe in that shit, I just think it's fun. Half the things on this board are just people having fun, lighten up killjoy.

>>18558495

i'm pretty sure that would be /lit/. the stuff you can read there is beyond retarded.

it's really easy to list obvious stuff like magic crystals and astrology.

This. Hypnosis works really well, even if just for shits and giggles

Believe it or not, I actually used my mind control skill to make you all post in this thread. Your every move is decided by me.

lol i hope youre trolling cus the "/x/ low IQ" meme is reddit faggotry of the highest degree, much like all 'scientific skepticism'. its all just an excuse for brain damaged autists to think theyre special because they cant experience basic human spirituality. its not so edgy anymore now that most young males are autistic as fuck.
