I’ve read “scientists will be cancelled for doing science” no less than 30 times this week alone.
See. The climate change deniers read a fake graph, call THAT “doing science”, and then complain that their demonstrably incorrect assertions are “cancelled”.
When they say that “people are cancelled for correlating sun activity with climate change”, what they really mean is “people won’t listen to my shitty, demonstrably incorrect talking point”.
The demonstrably incorrect graphs haven’t been doing so hot, so now they’re just trying to discredit all of science altogether with vague claims that have literally never happened. They think this fear based posturing will work on everyone else because of how well it works on them.
Thank you. I’m old enough to remember the internet before social media. The diversity of opinions have always existed and I appreciate that. But today it seems like we have a newfound anti-intellectualism, anti-science, anti-progress that only existed for me in stories of the Salem witch hunts or some long time before “we knew” better.
Seeing it today is upsetting.
