I actually thought this was about the girl who bragged about getting an internship at NASA, continuing to cuss at one of her employers over ©The Company Still Known As Shitter

She is a total nutcase. Jamie Loftus interviewed her on Sixteenth Minute.

I know Edison loves to steal credit but lamps existed for thousands of years before Joseph Swan made a workable electric version.

I think the main reason why this lie is still held up is... Murica invented everything... including the universe.

[–] wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The reason it's still held up is because Edison was a genius at precisely one thing: marketing. He was an incredibly efficient (read: ruthlessly cutthroat) venture capitalist. That's it.

This, and people have a tendency to hear a story, then integrate that story into their entire worldview, until the only four scientists ever to live were Einstein, Edison, Newton, and maybe Galileo.

Thus it has always been, and thus it shall remain.

But those are ouchie fire lamp

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 8 points 2 days ago

Moth: you didn't invent the lamp!

Edison: look how I took credit for inventing the lamp.
