How Do We Get People Who Believe in Pseudoscience to Trust Science?

Maybe a good first step would be to stop with the "trust science" thing.

Science is a process, a means not an ends.

It's heavily influenced by human factors, such as funding, tenure, reputation, etc...

It's sprinkled with outright corruption.

We have systems to mitigate and correct for those things, but those systems are fallible.

Instead of "trust science" appeal to authority - we should be pushing critical thought, logic, reasoning and basic statistical methods.

That's a hard sell though, because there are people and institutions that profit from being the gatekeepers of "truth".

And there's enough junk science out there to discredit real scientists by association. Wearing a lab coat and speaking with confidence is more compelling than wearing a lab coat and speaking with caveat after caveat. The layperson doesn't necessarily understand p-hacking, but they will understand discredited research.

People believe in pseudoscience on their own volition and at their own peril. It's not a given for me that actual scientists should spend their valuable time throwing a line out to try to save them from themselves.
