I was worried it was a sign of schizophrenia and tried to convince them that they needed help. Unfortunately when you google &amp;quot;animal telepathy&amp;quot; or any other query to get information on telepathic communication with animals, the top results are all absolute batshit crazy sites that confirm people can do that. Now I see how someone can start to believe all kinds of crazy things. Since Google probably optimizes for some type of engagement under the hood, all sorts of alternative medicine and crazy ideas end up as top results. I really think the whole &amp;quot;let&amp;#x27;s make all information&amp;#x2F;speech available with no filters except for sex because clearly sex is evil&amp;quot; approach from SV companies is causing huge harm. Most people don&amp;#x27;t grow up thinking they need to read several scientific, peer reviewed, reproducible papers to believe new ideas.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>I Have Cancer.
