I did bump into this page, but it seems what they do is they buy air time intended for ads and place a kind of subverted piece in what is apparently called “culture jamming”. I was hoping more for an organic kind of movement on social media that gets people to talk about the issues more clearly and rethink what is acceptable.


Time and “order” are very unimportant with discoveries.
Im pretty sure historians would disagree with this statement.


I think time is an important variable, I should have stressed it more in the question. Sure, we would eventually get to the same ideas, but how long would it take? I suspect some development are somewhat expected as multiple people are simultaneously looking at the same underlying problem, while others come as a little more surprising.
It is very simple and few people, but it does work.


It’s like watching an embryo develop into a child.
Thanks for not using the “girls vs boys” version.
