A positive personality defends people against fake news.

People with dark and negative personalities believe fake news more often than positive personalities. This is the thing, that psychologists found when they research what kind of personalities are the most vulnerable to fake news. Or is it that, those dark personalities just don't react to fake news? 

There is a possibility that dark personalities don't just react to lies that they see. So they don't mention if they see fake news. And the reason for that is maybe in their traumatic past. 

Maybe those dark personalities are afraid to tell if they see things like fake news. The reason for that is negative personalities afraid that if they are giving some negative feedback or simply saying that they don't believe something those people are closed away from their society. 

The thing is that many negative personalities are advancing when the person gets negative feedback. So that thing causes social apathy where the person would not ever react to lies and fake news. 

When all answers or attention that person gets is negative. That causes a situation where the person will not even want to tell about fake news or participate in discussions. The person will not even want to tell if they see lies or fake news.

So those people do not necessarily believe things that they see. They might not tell that they see lies in some text or video. Negative feedback about their attempt to get attention causes negative people don't even care to say anything if they see lies. 

The reason for that is maybe that people with dark personalities are lonely. They spend more time on the net. They have fewer discussion partners than positive people. 

And then another thing is that fake news is more often negative. So negative people are following negative news. And the reason for that is that people are searching for support for their way to see things. 

Fake news is offering lonely people the possibility to spend more time with things that are not true. But those things offer information that nobody knows first and better. 

When we think of negative personality, we must ask why people became negative. Maybe that thing explains why negative people believe lies more often than positive people. 

Or do they? Maybe the thing is that negative personalities are not saying so often if they see fake news or somebody tells lies in some discussion forum. The reason for that is that those people are afraid that they are closed away from that social network.

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...

Who really was Plato, the great philosopher?

When we are thinking about the great philosopher Plato, we are thinking about the man who established the Academy of Athens. And we might remember that this man was a traveler. He traveled in many places in his life and wrote many texts and books, which still is very respected thoughts about the state and other things. When we are looking at the books or series of books, we are facing the thing, that there were lots of texts. If we want to use criticism we must notice that the model of the ideal state is rising the kings in the very high position, and the thing would flatter the kings. And sometimes I have thought that maybe that famous model of the ideal state is written by somebody else. The thing is that the model, where the philosophers rule the state behind the lines of soldiers could be written for the persons like Justinian, who was really flattered. The thing is that this kind of writings was meant for flatter the rulers, who would not persecute philosophers, even they had d...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...
