Nobody cares what this fat, low-T, DEI hire, fake scientist who can't even tell you what a woman is thinks about any topic.

Here's somebody that Neil deFaggot Tyson would call a woman because dude calls himself a woman.



This shit right here is why you now lose on EVERY issue in 2025 until for the rest of forever, Ted.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is a smart guy but part of him is also an entertainment tv act and there are times he is out of his depth will keep trying to swim while sinking and never admitting there is stuff he lacks expertise in
Modern Nukes make Boomy Booms noise but no radiation?...kind of...that's not canned laughter from a keyboard it sounds like the audience simply laugh like idiots

even smart guys can have their 'idiot' moment
3 idiots out of their depth
and an audience of idiots watching
there are far worse perverts over at the BBC or you have other creeps like Bill Nye blabbing about kids and tranny



"Do fusion bombs [hydrogen bombs] create radioactive fallout?"

Quote:

Hydrogen bombs create radioactive fallout particles, such as cesium-137 and iodine-131, primarily through the fission of plutonium in the bomb's core and the fast-neutron fission of uranium in the bomb's casing. The explosion disperses these fission products widely, leading to long-lived isotopes that can contaminate the environment. The fallout from nuclear tests, especially in the Pacific, has had lasting effects on local populations, such as the Marshall Islanders, who continue to suffer from health issues related to exposure. While some isotopes are also produced in reactors, the efficiency and scale of fission in bombs result in a different distribution of radioactive materials. Overall, the discussion emphasizes the complex interplay between nuclear fission processes and the resulting environmental impacts.

THUGR: All anyone needs to do is look at the long-lived radionuclides around the islands where we tested HYDROGEN BOMBS to know that they do, indeed, create radioactive fallout. Neil de Grasse Tyson was wrong.

*****

Science popularizers often speak out of their area of expertise.

For example, in "Science Matters", de Grasse Tyson credits the first advances towards greater longetivity to "doctors" when in reality it was better sanitation.

"Science" isn't an exercise in sticking your head up the butt of someone you think is a great/ established/ well known/ recognized "scientist" who tells you "how things are". That is canonical knowledge .... knowledge received from canon (originally Church canon, or doctrine). There is a lot of accumulated knowledge (and many buried assumptions) in science books, but that isn't science.

The practice of SCIENCE is based on several things:

The first is being alive to REALITY.
The second is ASKING QUESTIONS.
The third is the most mysterious ... inspiration. Developing a NEW WAY of looking at things, a hypothesis to explain what you see.
The fourth is HYPOTHESIS TESTING, either by experimentation or by being able to predict events not predictable by current way of looking at things.

It's not a degree that makes a scientist. Science can be done by anyone, degreed or not. All anyone needs to do is ask the right questions, look at reality in a new way, make the right connections.

According to you, my friend, anyone who asks questions, demands evidence, comes up with alternate, accurate explanations and predictions isn't a scientist if what they think is distasteful (to you) and if it cuts across establishemnt.

In your mind they're heretics, non-believers, "Russian trolls", "Qanon followers", or "dropouts".

Yes, science is important, but it's useful to understand what science is.

SIX, science has no room for denial either.

Fair enough.

You show me anybody important that anyone has heard of and/or from on any topic that holds any real meaning for America and American citizens who has done or is even capable of carrying out your Science Wishlist above, and we can talk about that issue.

I've never seen one.


DO I need to dig up that list of BULLSHIT we've learned in school ever since we were kids that was lies or outright propaganda, such as the Food Pyramid, or the whole "Milk, it does a body good" campaign?

I have zero reason to trust any of these people. Just because they paid for a piece of paper and wear a white lab coat, that don't mean nothing to me. And I don't see any reason why it ever should.



And at the end of the day, most of it doesn't really matter. 90% of what Scientists study doesn't and won't ever have an effect on my life whatsoever. It's the 10% they work on and tend to lie to us about that is worrisome.

Neither one of us knows the names of people who are doing real science, bc they're not the ones the government trots out to tell you what to do.

Do you know the names of the people who discovered PCR? The BJT transistor? Router logic? You don't even know the names of people who did real science that still have a huge impact today.

But that's not science.
Did they show you any epidemiological studies? Repeated double blind,placebo controlled experiments? Propose any mechanisms as to how that might be do?
BTW, FWIW milk- drinking is in our Csucasion genetic heritage. Most white adults can still make lactase. It's not the evil you've been convinced it is. Some of the healthiest people drink milk.

And it shouldn't. But I detect a touch of resentment.

Now that's just stupid. You depend on insulin, right? Who do you suppose discovered that?

Nope. You're not arguing against my point here. You're making it for me.

Precisely.

But they sold it to us as undeniable fact while we were growing up in grade school. The Scientists and Experts said so and it's the plan we all needed to adopt because Science.

Maybe the problem here is that you're several generations of school before my time and you just don't understand the way that we were being propagandized and how different and likely much more effective it had become by the mid to late 80's.

I don't joke around when I talk about Critical Thinking. Most Americans who went through the Public School System are literally incapable of it. And that's by design. I'm not old enough to have lived in the generation where the actual shift really took hold, but if I were a betting man I would say it was 1979 when the Department of Education was established that it really kicked into high gear and became much more homogenized on a national level.

I would suggest if you know any GenXers in real life, you ask them if they can recall any of this while they were in grade school and I bet it will ring some bells for them even if they haven't thought about it for 4 decades or so. If you're reading the paper (for us, as children in class, the Weekly Reader) and an "Expert" says something, we're to trust that "Expert" because they went to college and they're so smart and the news paper (Weekly Reader) told us what was true and we're just to believe everything we read in the Weekly Reader.

Don't ever ask any questions. Don't ever put any of your fragile ego'd teachers on the defensive to have to debate with a 5th grader the lack of logic in a Weekly Reader article because your teacher should never have to defend the Weekly Reader because everyone Trusts everything that is written in the Weekly Reader. So Sayeth the Writers of the Weekly Reader and the Teachers of the Weekly Reader and of course and most importantly you, Our Very Loyal Readers of the Weekly Reader.... AAAAAA---aaaaaa---AAAAAA---aaaaaa----AAAAAA------aaaaaaa MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!.

Why do you persist in challenging the undeniable logic of the Weekly Reader. You will be punished for questioning the Weekly Reader. We're going to take you and several other students out of class for an hour per day, twice per week to see the social worker to make you feel like there is something wrong with you, and to alienate you from the rest of the kids in class. None shall ever question the Weekly Reader in this class again, lest they want to meet a similar fate. So help me God, Editor and Chief of the Weekly Reader

So why do you tar scientists with those cutouts who get stood up to promote agribusiness and pharma?

SIX, I went to Catholic grade school where we studied catechism, read from reader full of stories about martyrs and good children, went to mass in the morning and sang in the choir. Didn't get any science and certainly not any critical thinking. Did "duck and cover" drills while adults talked quietly that it wouldn't make any difference, and were told the horrors of radioactive fallout.I had my own doubts and questions, but I kept them to myself. So I wasn't punished but I was so shy and so much younger than my classmates I didn't fit in well either, plus my mom resented being a mother and starting drinking when I was still pretty young. My dad had PTSD fr

Evidence Jack and Signym are just plain stupid. To the point.

Trump is driving our educated out of the country. He has cut science funding and grants pretty much to nil.

Jack and Signym continue to cover for him and show no concern for this. And Jack thinks he is smarter than Neil. Too funny...
