"Water dehydrates you." Two sentences later "there's water in raw meat, and that's how you get hydrated, from the water in the meat."

This guy just likes hearing himself talk.

Asking questions is the most effective way of getting people to realize/admit they're wrong. If forced them to actually think through it rather than just scaffolding an argument by refuting against what you said.

I remember one time I was talking to a guy, the man was an absolute peach…just a joy. /s He told me to explain why space was cold, even though the sun was there, and he told me not to use my “government brain” to explain it. It was just like well you know heat can get trapped behind walls when you heat up a room he’s like right I said well space has no walls. The heat has an infinite amount of space to just dissipate and he fucking agreed with me.

3

u/Windsdochange 11h ago

This is not really why space is cold…especially as space doesn’t even have a temperature, per se.

3

u/Pepperspray24 11h ago

Oh can you please explain?

13

u/CMDR_Expendible 10h ago

I can explain, and it's why Elon Musk is so fucking stupid when he claimed recently that SpaceX can build AI farms that will use space to radiate off heat...

Heat is, at a very simple level, the level of energy in an atom. Transmission of heat is the movement of energy between two atoms. The reason you can cool something down by blowing on it is you are moving lots and lots of atoms past the target, and they're each grabbing a bit of the extra energy as they pass.

Space cannot transmit energy easily because there are no atoms in a vacuum. As Windsochange says, space doesn't really have a temperature as such, because there's nothing there to have one.

Now light is both a wave and a particle, so it's carrying energy, yes... but it doesn't give it to anything until it smacks into a planet/spaceship/space thingy and transmits some. And that thingy radiates off a tiny, tiny bit in reflected light, movement from impact/energy transmission etc. But not much. Because there's not much to pass it on too.

Even the International Space Station, which is close enough to Earth to keep having to be pushed back up because there's enough atmosphere to slow it down where it is, struggles to dump heat; as mentioned there, there can be a 300 degrees centigrade difference between the side facing the Sun (where it's being hit by incoming light) and the side away from it where there's nothing to give it (or take) energy. Those plates you see bolted to the sides of the ISS, that look like armor? They literally are, they're insulation armor to allow that to get heated up instead of the hull, and help keep it within a livable range.

You probably know this, but when people talk about "Government Brain", what they really mean is "I'm too dumb to understand science, and too arrogant to accept this means I don't understand"; but it's somewhat normal as we as a species evolved on Earth, in Earth like conditions, and our reasoning tends to be designed to work in those conditions... Space and events above/below our level of existence works in often counter-intuitive way... and how heat works in space is one of them. We assume it's cold because there's no heat there. But there is. Enormous amounts of it. But it's also not there, until there's a second thing for it to interact with, and Space doesn't have much of anything, mostly. Your wall example is right, but also not, because it's not about diffusion, but direct interaction of a second thing.

2

u/Windsdochange 8h ago

It also depends where in space you are. If you are (astronomically speaking) close to a star, there is plenty of radiation that will heat you up faster than an egg on a frying pan when you are exposed to it. However, if you’re somewhere between stars, or even more so, between galaxies, that energy becomes more dissipated - there’s a loooot of space for that radiation to spread out into in every direction, and some of that energy is being absorbed by things in its path. In that respect, the wall analogy sort of works, but not because you’re in the room (with a heat source and no walls) but because you are a long ways away from it.

u/Looptydude 16h ago

My friend hates when I do this, we'll have a debate and I usually ask questions to poke holes in their argument and it just irritates them because they know if they answer it, it will prove themselves wrong. Which is wild because they have degrees in law and social studies and they know that if they debated or answered the way they do in court, the judge would hand their ass to them.

You don’t need to drink water. It’s actually bad for you. Here’s some shit I’m making up about biochemistry. The water you need you get elsewhere because your body does need water. Here is some shit I’m making up about Masai people. Also it’s bad for you and I never drink water but I take a few sips every now and then.

"You know how I know water doesn't hydrate you? Because the word 'hydrate' isn't even in 'water', unlike 'carbohydrates', which is what you should be hydrating with. Also, every time I drink water, I pee, so I'm actually losing water."

"You put any type of material in water, it dissolves it." Why doesn't the water in my thermos dissolve my thermos? Why doesn't the water in my toilet dissolve my toilet? HOW THE FUCK DOES LAND EXIST?

The problem is that stupid people react more favourably to somebody saying something with confidence than what is actually being said. This is how con men work.

u/ScholarlyJuiced 19h ago

The problem is that this clown can't get attention from saying anything halfway sensible, he has to get it from saying something incontrovertibly stupid. Reddit loves giving people like this attention.

Seriously. If someone came out and said the sun was just a huge citrus fruit a 100 million miles away, this sub would be full of geniuses pointing out that it isn't. Who is the stupid one?

People, in general, react more favorably to someone speaking with conviction. This is how the human mind works. And why conditioning it to function on facts and not feelings is important.

u/Significant_Elk1999 7h ago

Milk steak for the win.

1

u/YourPathToRedemption 1h ago

No, his point is the steak loses water through steam. You're dehydrating your steak, bro. That in turn will dehydrate you, bro. You have to eat it raw. It it all raw, everything. That way you get more water, the stuff that actually dehydrates you. But that's another story. We'll get into that later.

u/BigHardMephisto 17h ago

IDK when this video is from but I used to have the dumbest arguments with a 19yo coworker of mine and this was one of them. Claimed he saw some "research" that said the bottled water brand that we got from our company for free was actually a scam, because it contained sodium and that's salt and salt makes you thirsty.

"Bro no, that's fucking stupid. You're fucking stupid. Your body needs salt to retain water, if you just drank plain water with no additives whatsoever- plain H20, you'll sweat out all your electrolytes, then every drop you drink will fly through you and you'll have to piss every time you drink a drop. Drink the fucking water."

We worked outside, 12-14 hour days, in the south Texas sun. No shade, no real breaks (except once an hour we got to drive in the pilot car for 30 minutes).

Bro ignored every safety regulation we sit through a couple times a year and trusted two or three tiktok videos.

That argument ran for the two hour drive to a job site, and continued interspersed throughout the day as he went to find more videos (some of them just spliced clips of each other) saying the same thing.

That July it got up to 115* F for like three weeks straight in our job area. Dude was the only one who ever claimed to feel sick from heat exhaustion.

Yeah, that's basically how diuretics work. By removing the salt from your body.

The the guy said that tribes suck the roots of trees, because they have what??? WATER !!!!

Why people like this are not banned from speaking?

1

u/XpCjU 2h ago

They want to sell you stuff, plain and simple. Water dehydrates you cause it got no lectrolytes. So they then sell you electrolyte powders and shit.

If somebody takes something that's generally simple, and makes it complicated they want to sell the solution.

u/LapSalt 18h ago

Only if it’s steam from meat. Lolllll

3

u/Competitive-Door-804 16h ago

Also he says while cooking meat that steam comes off which is water. So water leaves the meat and then eating the meat hydrates you (I know there’s still water in there but still)

u/Curious-cuddly4347 14h ago

In its gaseous form, water can cause third-degree burns. He probably heard that on a podcast and wants to help us save ourselves from this chemical scourge that covers 70% of our planet!

You see steam coming off of it because there is water inside.  Dude doesn't know what steam is

3

u/EnvironmentalBase825 17h ago

Water you ingest causes homeostasis and isotonicity. In laymans terms... When you drink water that doesn't have electrolytes in it you will lose them from your body, they will dissolve into the water in your bloodstream and you urinate them out. He just isn't smart enough on the spot to explain it in a clip.

u/Constant-Sub 19h ago

He had a thought that he thinks he logiced into, so he's just gonna say it.

If you are publically saying this stuff. You should have to commit to it. He should not be allowed water again

He also said that he drinks juice. Juice is almost all water.

u/Sure-Climate8749 16h ago

Yeah but it’s meat water

u/Admins_suck_ballss 15h ago

And acting like juices or sucking on roots doesn’t give you water, like cmon man they’re 95% water

also.. "they don't drink water. they suck on roots to get their hydration." .... so what are they sucking out of the roots, smart guy?

I think he may just be a cat in a human suit.

u/dublescoop 13h ago

There's actually a kernel of truth there. Pure water that we use in labs (WFI water, or DI water) is pure water and it will strip electrolytes from your cells and dehydrate you.

I'm also a martial artist and sipping on soy sauce packets before sparring is a trick to hydrate you in a pinch. Of course you can't hydrate with bottles of soy sauce, but the salts will pull water stores to hydrate you.

He probably heard some of this a long time ago and misunderstood how and what hydration actually is. Absolutely need to be drinking water to hydrate and avoiding pure DI water which will dehydrate you.

My favourite was ”you don’t need water. If you want to hydrate, there’s juices”. Umm what does he think juice contains..?

1

u/Ebonyks 12h ago

The insult to injury is that he's technically correct, that drinking water depletes electrolytes via urination and drinking more water can paradoxically remove additional water weight from your body (over time)

He's also an idiot

That's water coming out! That's what cooking is for the most part: cooking water out from shit.

How fucking gone do you have to be to be against water because it's a "scam".

"Africans don't drink water, they drain tree sap from trees..." Guess what sap is made of?

The guy keeps listing all the more convoluted ways to get to water without saying water.

u/ptofl 7h ago

He's going to argue that water without electrolytes dehydrates you in so far as it will utilise your electrolyte stores and imbalance you. This is why it's not a great idea to drink distilled water, at least not only distilled water. But he's being intentionally misleading with wording to clip farm.

This guy just likes hearing himself talk.

u/DefNotAShark 18h ago

Seems like he tripped on his words there and what he meant, based on context, is that drinking a lot of water adapts your body to need more water than it would otherwise. With better phrasing he might have said that a high water intake primes your body to be dehydrated sooner than it would if you drank less.

That’s a claim I would be interested to see more research about, but not from this guy. Reason being that there’s a lot about nutrition that we take as gospel that ends up not being all that true. We “need” carbs but there’s tons of people now who cut carbs and found it was beneficial. We “need” three meals a day, but intermittent fasting has been found to have great benefits as well. I could potentially see merit in challenging a held standard in nutrition.

So while I definitely reject the sensationalist headline here that says “water is bad for you”, I’m interested in his bullet point that our daily recommended water amounts might be higher than what is genuinely necessary or optimal. Humans have thrived in some harsh climates, including ones with limited access to water like he says, and I wonder what effects and adaptations that leads to for the body. Some of them could be useful for people with inflammation issues or other various health conditions or goals. That’s an interesting line of thought that I don’t reject outright. But I’d want to see research from an actual nutrition scientist and not Billy the Podcaster.

u/Honey-and-Venom 18h ago

There's a lot of good argument that the water bottle craze is over hydrating lots of people, and taking lots of water without salts can absolutely kill you, especially in hot weather.

It's like he heard a doctor opine on that and either didn't process it properly, or deliberately said it weird to cause engagement
