Another one for my once in a lifetime crisis collection.

Why only once? The best things always have a sequel.

Then people born after 70s must be in a cinematic universe

Cool but I don't need a goldbug conspiracy theorists' website for that.

[–] renzev@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I am so confused, what is that website even trying to say!? Is it just a collection of graphs that seem to have some important turning point around 1971? Why choose that year in particular, you could do it for any other year? This seems like a lamer non-automated version of https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

In 1971, USA dropped gold standard and it has given rise to all kinds of conspiracy theories.

Ohhh, makes sense, thank you!

I hear they're going to get a lot more frequent. I expect two Katrina-like events in the next ten years in Florida.

Maybe the tenth will be free.
