Scientific consensus is a thing.Because scientists all agree with one another on everything?
They aren’t politicians. Do you know any scientists? They are, for the most part, people who seek the truth as an occupation.Is it also the job of scientists to crush any opinions or views that differ from theirs regardless of how wise or ridiculous?
. Other scientists. Peer review is also a thing.And who decides whether or not a given scientist, especially one under employment of say, big pharma, or perhaps a major tobacco, or some corporation like Exxon, and the like, are going to be presenting the rest of us with good science or with the "science" that they are told to give us by their employers?
It isn’t wise to rely on corporate scientists. Look for consensus and peer review.
I have no idea what you’re referring to.I just don't know if that 20-year-old YouTube intern has been trained to make these sorts of decisions on behalf of the other people who aren't even given a choice.
