... so what you're saying is that exoplanets cause autism!

[–] cogman@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No. It's obviously the space telescopes.

You already asked that last year!

You have the causation wrong here.

Autistic people go into astronomy, and then find more exoplanets. Therefore autism causes exoplanets!

This is technically sort of a little correct.

Time to blown up Pluto.

This is stupid and you know it. Exoplanets were discovered much later. It's Pluto that caused the autism epidemic and autistic people caused the exoplanet epidemic. Keep the causation clear.
