Evening anons. I was wondering whether there is any reason to believe that an increase in solar flares and associated geomagnetic fuckery might reasonably be linked to an increase in irritability and anger, or disrupt human emotional regulation in general. I figured this might be the best place to ask... current research shows a weak correlation found by soviet scientists but otherwise little association. If you have any significant articles, readings, blogs, or any information at all, I'd love to know.
>>16895161I was wondering the same thing and came here. We probably heard a line in a movie 20 years ago and it buried in our brains. Also a fun explanation for the state of the world and this thread is a funny coincidence.
>>16895164The real reason I made this thread is I saw a schizopost on /pol/ saying that the recent CME is gonna cause people to start acting wacky when the field snaps back and reverses over the next few days - I also noticed that I found myself unusually irritable and angry for no good reason starting this afternoon through to this evening, just as the recent X1.9 CME started to hit earth. I'm not a schizo so it's probably nothing but I got curious, hence this post.
>>16895165>found myself unusually irritable and angry for no good reason starting this afternoon through to this eveningreading /pol/ schitzos will do that. Hopefully someone knows a real answer. Tell the schitzos the storms themselves are harmless but what lurks within them is the real conspiracy.
>>16895161Strangely enough, this was the premise of a Science Fiction short-story published n the 1950s or 60s. It was only fiction but he made it plausible, citing history data tying together major wars and such to solar sunspot activity. It makes me wonder.
1 curious mind. 2 think they heard it from pop culture, and 1 anecdotal shitzoposter. is this how you do /sci/? I never post here.
>>16895161Can they do anything? NoReason to believe they can? Low IQ and schizophrenia mostly, sometimes both judge on case by case basis.Geomagnetic storms do not carry enough power to influence humans in a significant way and what effects they may or may not have are dwarfed by electromagnetic effects human civilization. There may be secondary effects like how phases of moon can't actually impact humans physically but simply believing they can often does have a real effect. Similarly schizoing out at a solar storm can have a real and measurable impact on your health entirely independent of any storm actually even occurring, it does help that they can produce pretty impressive auroras which are interesting enough to be in the news cycle every time a powerful storm comes around. I'm sure soviet scientists can convince you that you a bear if they blast you with enough magnetism but I very much doubt the veracity of any such research not just because it's soviet science but because these sort of things are simply difficult to accurately research.
>>16895161maybe look newspapers at each solarcyckle peak and some in between
>>16895161very interesting topic tbqhmsfll
