I love science, or at least until the COVIDIANS offshoots and global warmers took the concept of science and turned it into an industry designed to bend to their bidding.
What I love about it is precisely that it develops and grows from past theories to new theories and understandings based on better information and more complex ways of thinking.
Sometime in between, we’re all going to die from climate change, and if we’re not vaccinated or wearing masks, we’re all going to die, and evolution is told to disappear, never to be mentioned again.
We are now often told that “science has solved” this or that. Questioning the “science” of anything is akin to saying violence, even in keeping with white supremacist views.
Of course, that’s not how science works at all. In fact, it’s the exact opposite of how science works.
Thanks to the Internet, I can travel back in time to read some wise words from popular astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson.
What he had to say in past interviews about the nature of science would make would-be Twitter scientist and science guy Anthony Fauci fly off guard.
“In an environment of endless political strife, if a peaceful alien landed on Earth, walked up to you and begged, ‘Take me to your leader!’ would you escort it to the White House or the National Academy of Sciences?”

questions for science journalists
I want to take you back to 2007, when gauchos and side bangs were all the rage. Neil deGrasse Tyson is being interviewed on MSNBC. He had some really interesting things to say about science news.
Mr. Tyson statement:
“…the media often does not convey the uncertainty of information provided by scientists. This is common in the medical community, where people are waiting for the next cure for a disease…”
Now that’s pretty predictable. He goes on to discuss how articles claiming to cure diseases lack information about trials and results:
“So there isn’t enough discussion about the trials, the integrity of the results as it flows from the number of trials conducted, and the uncertainties of the analyses. These are not part of the communication toolbox for science journalists.”
To be fair, facts and context are not in the toolbox any Reporter, but stick with this…
What an exciting example of giving back in 2007. Fast forward, the mainstream media and the scientific community are quickly claiming that a COVID vaccine will prevent you from getting COVID.
president biden himself Say:
“If you get these vaccines, you can’t get COVID.”
A year later, he tested positive for COVID. oops.

a brief history
The late great theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking also explored the topic of “fixed science”.he wrote in the introduction to his book Brief History of Time:
“Every time a new experiment is observed to be consistent with the predictions of the theory, our confidence in it increases; however, if the new observations are found to be inconsistent, we have to abandon or revise the theory. At least that’s what’s supposed to happen… …”
Mr Hawking said science was never really stable and that any good scientific theory had enough observations that it could be called into question and thus destabilized.
In fact, a 2015 New York Times article added, illustrate:
“Science is never conclusive. It is, by definition, an ever-evolving body of human knowledge…”
However, the same publication wrote 2020:
“The public health debate about masks has been settled,” said Joseph G. Allen, director of Harvard University’s Building for Health program. When you wear a mask, “You protect yourself, and you protect others…”
In the same year Dr. Anthony Fauci wrote In the email:
“The typical mask you buy at the drug store isn’t very effective at blocking viruses because the viruses are small enough to pass through the material.”
I guess it’s not so stable after all. and probably never will, This is an important point to remember when you hear some smug left throwing anti-science phrases at you.

I am science!
In an interview with MSNBC in 2007, Neil deGrasse Tyson sigh:
“The irony of science is that we cling to established theories and avoid challenging them. That’s not true. In fact, we give the highest reward to scientists who can prove others wrong.”
Is it really?
Someone didn’t get Anthony Fauci to join the scientific community with this conviction.Conversely, when people dared to question the advice of the CDC and himself, he Say This is dangerous because, as he puts it:
“I represent science.”
My person has healthy self esteem.senator rand paul is right fight back:
“The sheer arrogance of people who claim they represent science. Shocking and appalling that a public health bureaucrat would even think of claiming such a thing, especially from someone who works so hard to ignore the science of natural immunity.”
Fortunately for us, the man of science doesn’t intend to disappear into the night after retirement, because he hint on his retirement encore tour. No doubt he will need a bigger office to house all the self-portraits he receives from his adoring Fauci fans.

future
Twitter’s keyboard scientist warriors and Follow the Science eulogists may have ruined the field of science, and therefore our entire civilization.
Together, history and science drive culture and other fields of study.
If science isn’t evolving the way Neil deGrasse Tyson and Stephen Hawkings say, then there’s no room for more growth. If we do not grow, there is only one path: destruction.
the great carl sagan was Say:
“We live in a society that is highly dependent on science and technology, and almost no one is ignorant of science and technology.”
What he said was as accurate as it is now. But, unfortunately, we are too blind and too proud to admit it. So instead, we bow to the altar of an unshakable god—and that false god has stolen the name and essence of science.
Hopefully scientists like Neil deGrasse Tyson will save us from our confusion and bring back the joy of real science, the never-ending exploration of questions, and more importantly, the discovery of more questions.
“Perhaps nothing is more human than the methods, tools and discoveries of science. They have shaped modern civilization.”
