In the gravity analogy, someone would be claiming they understand 100% of what makes up gravity

Nah. You fucks went there. The initial comment was just "it's electrical impulses". You blowhards all came rushing in pretending he had said "I HAVE DISCOVERED HOW TO CREATE CONSCIOUSNESS! I AM A GENIUS AND MASTER OF SCIENCE!"

In this analogy, he said "gravity: stuff attracts other stuff" and you dumbshits go "ACKSHUALLY"

But ackshually he's right. Stuff attracts other stuff. Consciousness is electrical impulses in the brain. We don't know the details, but we know the big picture.

Shouting about it doesn’t do anything.

Shouting and cursing emphasizes how stupid y'all are, and how ridiculous it is that you're pretending to be smart.

Lol you confidently incorrect dumbass. Gravity is the problem of modern physics and you think you can boil it down to a simple force of attraction?

There are theories that it's an illusion and theories that it's caused by time itself. But you've gone and proved my point by basically saying, "SEE, APPLE FALL DOWN"
