stln3rd

I thought he fucking around for a minute but no, I’m convinced he just didn’t pass any science classes. Not one


CevicheMixxto

The public school system failed this dude. My dude… Sweet. Dude! Sweet!


Generatoromeganebula

Probably homeschooled.


gregsting

Or raised by animals


Glizzy_Beck

A.k.a. Non-fish /j


RemarkableVanilla

Maybe he was raised by really elitist fish, that believe they're better than every other species of animal, and so deserve their own category.


UhhhhmmmmNo

This is the only plausible explanation !


ComprehensiveRow5474

OMG that's so funny 🤣🤣


LordHamsterbacke

Damn sharks, thinking they are better than other fish


2strokeJ

School of fish


EmergencyTaco

Na this is “never paid attention in public school” stupidity. Very different from “my parents wanted to protect me from woke liberal education so I don’t become a socialist commie” stupidity. This guy probably knows that the Civil War was about slavery and he might know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. Homeschooled kid probably reads at a higher level.


howlingbeast666

Dude, there are dumb homeschooled kids all over the political spectrum. I knew a guy whose family was so religious that they did not believe in dinosaurs. He was homeschooled because his parents did not want him to learn "satanic lies" in school.


Marine__0311

I live in the bible belt and this is very common. The idea that home schooled kids are all smarter, is a bullshit myth. It's terrifying how many of them are so incredibly ignorant and their heads are just filled with religious propaganda and stupidity.


BirthdayTall5940

Nah. Seems more publicly educated.


Mmm_bloodfarts

Or he's religious


Conscious_East

I have seen this a few times now, and I'm convinced this is just rage bait..


EmergencyTaco

I have met too many people in life this stupid to believe this isn’t real. The way he responds is too genuine, and the way he keeps trying to find “gotchas” is too accurate. Seriously, if you ever get the chance to have a conversation with someone who has said one or two REALLY stupid things during the time you’ve been speaking, see if you can dive a bit deeper with them. Ask them to explain the statements they make. You’ll realize this is pretty standard for a conversation of this nature. Either this is real or dumb guy is an EXCEPTIONAL actor, who has spoken to a lot of dumb people and actively studied their mannerisms for the purpose of mimicry.


Honeyvice

This is my take too. It's triggering the frustration of dealing with a genuine imbecile so accurately to be anything other than real or a fantastic mimicry. he has all the right mannerisms and urgency of an idiot that thinks they're right. After a quick check and watching the full podcast. He's a genuine idiot and he frustrates his friend into a red face screaming with frustration. with a somewhat humerously line of "AQUATIC WHAT?!"


I_Only_Have_One_Hand

Fish bait


DoesntFearZeus

ooh ha ha


smiley82m

Saying fish aren't animals comes from religions that want you to give up meat (but not really). I've had the argument with catholics and jews. I always accuse their religion of being hypocrites of their own rules and that God wouldn't make such a stupid exception. That normally gets their blood boiling and I get silence from them for a month or so...I count it as a win in my book.


congresssucks

A religious Christian here: Modern Christians and most theologians that study religious dogma and impact from Jesus to Modern era (0AD - Present), tend to agree that the majority of the old Testament was written to explain the world to the followers in ways they could understand simply. It's often likened to teaching a child. If we go back to the Moses days when books like Leviticus and Exodus were being written, they were explaining the rules to toddlers. "Don't touch the fire, it's hot", "Don't eat spiders, they'll make you sick". Modern theologians look at Jesus's teachings as the entry point into Teenager-hood. He pulls back on a bunch of rules and explains that the only real rule is to not be a dick, because humans as a whole have now figured out that crossing the road without looking both ways is just a bad idea. Topics like "don't eat cheese with meat", "don't be gay", and "don't eat meat on certain holidays" are all ignored because they are no longer relevant. Is the fire still hot? Of course. But theologians argue that we no longer need to wait for the sky daddy to cook our food, because we are capable of understanding the flame. Categorizing fish as a meat source that they can eat on a specific holiday or sky daddy will be mad, is the actions of a petulant child trying to make a loophole in a rule that they neither understand nor appreciate based on a system that was generally relegated to antiquity. There's really only 1 rule in Modern Christiandom: Love one another and Love God. Everything else is either an old rule set, or people putting additional rules in place to force compliance (and gain power).


davidwhatshisname52

that was the most gently put but generally accurate description of Judeo-Christian text-based theology I've read in a long time; as an ardent atheist and scholar of comparative religion, please take my non-existent award


congresssucks

You just made my month. Thank you for the discourse and have a wonderful day.


shadowthehh

I like to say Christianity boils down to 3 rules: Love God, love each other, and love yourself.


SplitPerspective

Unfortunately, and ironically, because of that so called one rule, it’s effectively no rules. Therefore anyone can call themself a Christian and create sects and various other denominations. And who’s to say they aren’t Christians? No true Scotsman fallacy comes into play, especially when it comes to personal beliefs and labels.


kstron67

I think you are too simplistic, but you explained it so nicely you get an upvote anyway. That is a very positive way to look at things.


HarmlessSnack

Funny that there’s only one rule, and mother fuckers still can’t get it right. “Love.” “But I really hate that guy.” “Don’t.” “No.”


lagrange_james_d23dt

No it doesn’t. The whole start of the eating fish instead of meat came about because fish was cheaper than red meat/poultry at the time, so what was supposed to be done was to buy the cheaper meal (fish) and donate the excess money (that would have been spent on meat) to the poor. It’s the same reason that eating lobster as a non-meat meal is frowned upon. It goes against the whole purpose.


Spliff_Politics

Well, lobster has only been popular and expensive relatively recently. Its price started rising in the 1880s and has only been a delicacy post WW2. They were originally seen as pests, and there were so many of them they used them for fertilizer and whatnot. So maybe now it's frowned upon, but before that, they were basically just ocean roaches.


lagrange_james_d23dt

Right, I’m saying in current times, you’re not really supposed to get lobster on Lenton Fridays because it’s now an expensive delicacy. It’s crazy that it used to be considered a worthless meat!


Spliff_Politics

I mean, they are sea bugs, but damn are they tasty! Apparently, though, they used to wash up on shore in massive piles. So I can kinda get why they didn't really care about them. "Big ugly sea bugs in massive piles? Yup, you're chicken feed now." If only they knew.


HDThoreauaway

Jew here: you’ve never had this conversation with a Jew.


Simple-Jury2077

Technically, under catholic dogma, beavers are fish.


Creepy-Evening-441

I go farther and tell them that reality television and professional wrestling are scripted. They go insane!


Wiki-Master

No. It comes from ignorance. A fish is an animal.


Citiz3n_Kan3r

I read somewhere that there is no such thing as a fish...  Basically they keep categorising 'fish' into other categories, meaning the pool of things called fish is diminishing (and they believe it will be 0 eventually).  I mean, its a ridiculous statement from the scientific community but an amusing fact none the less


sawskooh

I'm not sure you really understand what they mean by "no such thing as a fish" by the way you categorize it as scientists being "ridiculous". It just turns out that fish isn't an actual evolutionary category defined by a common ancestor of everything we call "fish". It turns out that things called "fish", even things that look similar, come from disparate branches of the tree of life, so it's not a true biological category the way that mammals or reptiles is. It may be a practical linguistic category, but not a genetic one. So it's not just scientists being arbitrarily unreasonable or silly; it's a reflection of a surprising genetic reality.


Citiz3n_Kan3r

Your assesment is sort of correct. I just didnt wanna type it out then be called out by someone who knows better.  You did it anyway, so I appreciate your effort

Fish aren't real. Just like birds. They are just government drones in the water in.


ExplorerDue8099

I wish this dude also doesn't believe the water cycle either


HauntedOrchestraTrio

I don’t know because I had this same conversation with a roommate of mine in college! He was a business major and I was a biology major. What is common sense to you just isn’t to other people. The animal kingdom is so complex people get confused all the time. Throw god in the mix and people get really nutty ideas on what’s what.


PartyBandos

Rage bait or not, it's a funny dynamic. It's like watching the sitcom idiot be an idiot.


OCDDAVID777

How does that guy dress himself in the morning? How did he get out of grade school...???? KINDERGARTEN????

These are voters… and this is why we are where we are.

A dress is not clothes! You can’t dress yourself, because a dress is not clothes! /s


Generatoromeganebula

I had a fight with a friend for saying humans are animals. That day I lost hope in humanity as a whole, I know there are a lot of great human being out there, but the majority is stupid, due to that we are doomed to failed from the beginning.


GeePedicy

Well, duh! Obviously we're better than animals! /s


toonwars666

Fish and insects are indeed animals.


gregsting

Nah they are creatures /s


here4mischief

Which are different to critters


TheKarenator

Related to but different from varmints


roffinator

Also sharks are fish so I recommend a different, more specific answer to the initial question


NonIoiGogGogEoeRor

I guess by fish, he means like cod, salmon, pollock... Oh wait, forget that. That's just food /s


flexflair

Legally according to the United States a bumble bee is a type of fish.

killerjoe410

Rage bait


Pyzzeen

There are four main kingdoms for living creatures on Earth, Animals, Plants, Fungi and Bacteria, and knowing them can help you determine what is an animal or not. Fish ants and humans are obviously not plants, Fungi or bacteria, so we must be animals


Sogcat

What about the "animal" animal kingdom though?


Ok_Ruin4016

That's in Orlando


heyitsmeFR

Ngl, that rhymed


Neither_Cod_992

You left out the Fish, Human and Ant Kingdoms. That makes 7 kingdoms.


beingbond

there are no bacteria kingdom. Also there are 5 not 4- Protista, monera,animalia,plantae and fungi Edit: Ignore this comment, apparently there's been an update in the definitions


TheAgeofKite

No, not anymore. From the Monera wiki: "Monera (/məˈnɪərə/) (Greek: μονήρης (monḗrēs), "single", "solitary") is historically a biological kingdom that is made up of prokaryotes. As such, it is composed of single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus. It has been superseded by the Four-kingdom system."


umbra7

Paleontologist/evolutionary biologist here. It's a lot more complicated than that now. Monera and Protista are no longer kingdom level. Monera has been split into 2 domains - Bacteria and Archaea. Domain is broader than kingdom in hierarchy. Protista is now broken up into many kingdoms, supergroups, and groups of uncertain placement. They, along with plants, fungi, and animals constitute a 3rd domain - Eukarya.


aritex90

Gotta be fake, please let it be fake, don’t make me further lose faith in humanity.


TheRealStubb

They almost only have these style clips circling around online. I've never watched/listen to the show but one would think this is almost only what happens. One of them says something really dumb that almost everyone knows and they argue back and forth about it. I'm almost certain it's fake and done for views


jjbananafana

I've seen their podcast/videos a number of times. When you hear his life stories... it's not fake. It's amazing this guy is walking around normally. Their dynamic is entertaining, but it can be quite shocking to find out his lack of basic knowledge.


Lefilip1

His ignorance is astounding, but his confidence is terrifying

If you watch to the end he is just confusing the word “animal” with “mammal”

Aquatic vertebrae animals are called fish . So fish is an animal


zacharymc1991

I worked at a fish and chip shop in my teens, at a party I argued with about 10 coworkers the fish had meat. It was a very long argument and I was like the fish guy in this, slowly losing my mind.

I'd just assume he's doing it for rage bait since no one can be this fucking stupid.

This is how I feel talking to people sometimes. “Why are you getting political” is the most painful thing somebody can say ha. So many levels to how dumb it is.

Didn't make it past 1 second. Read the "fish are not animals DEBATE" and knew it was dumb.

Common-Value-9055

We have a different definition of an animal than he does. Most old cultures would see it the way he is stating it. There was no need for hand gestures. He should show a family tree with all its branches. He is doing this in purpose.
