Seen several viral tiktoks of people confused that mirrors reflect things.

This one just popped up on my twitter feed:

I could see how it might be unintuitive to some people, if they don't consider that the final image is not just about the position of the object and the mirror, but also the position of the observer

It's not an act. Despite being in the information age, there are precedence for people believing mirrors work as if some sort of a transmitting of visuals device rather than just a simple reflection. Having access to information doesn't mean you automatically just learn every info in the whole world. If you're an idiot or you simply lack the interest to look up the workings of the world.

Yet the mirror clearly can't see what's behind the paper.
So how'd it do it?

Go ahead. I'll wait.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Are you suggesting that the mirror world saw what the object was before it was hidden? So it was able to create a copy?
I suppose that I could agree with that theory.

The only reason you'd come to his conclusion is if you think mirrors are like TV screens and are reflecting data or something.

What's actually happening is a Mirror is a surface that reflects rays of light. Which you eye processes and your brain interprets.

i think once we discovered about the mirror world and we started raising questions about what the mirror people do when they're not in front of a mirror, is when things really got confusing
