TL:DR: Clickbait. Researcher examined (only) 263 galaxies and 2/3 of them were rotating clockwise (from what perspective?). That (somehow) challenges assumption that half of all galaxies in universe would spin one way one the other half - the other way. Possible explanation is that our universe was born rotating. This finding DOES NOT UNDERMINE THE IDEA that our universe isinside ablack hole. The 'evidence' is nowhere to be found in the article.
The only thing that maybe might make the entire universe the interior of a black hole is its density. How much mass is there in the volume of the universe? It turns out really big black holes aren't very dense, so its potentially possible that all the mass from all the galaxies in the volume of the universe is enough to make it a black hole. The practical effects on us of this discovery? Absolutely nothing changes.

Let me know when it reaches 4 out of 5 scientist levels

Omg, I just ran the numbers in Excel. They're correct.

This is my pet theory, that our universe is inside a 4D black hole. I base this on nothing and will be taking no questions.

I say we leave it there.

I'm sure if we decided to take it out it would be very bad for us

Second I read the headline I'm like "okay what completely ordinary remark did some dipshit pop science blogger twist into something crazy"
