A interesting tweet from a indigenous friend

Well unless you’re speaking directly to a scientist who conducted a study you’re pretty much getting second/third/fourth/etc hand info from Dr Internet on some level. Even Drs use the internet to do their research and form their opinions.

I have had doctors Google search during an appointment.

Depends on where you get your second opinion. If it is Dr. Internet be careful.

That is hilarious coming from the guy who spent the last 3+ years endlessly pushing medical advice about vaccines and covid on an online chat forum, and been wondering why no one takes his medical expertise seriously.

There is a H of difference between quoting official medical advice from the health department and repeating conspiracy theories from sites like Rumble. I never claimed to be a medical expert.

and you still believe the health experts after they changed their story every few weeks ?

Yup the flat earthers, denialists and their enablers and skeptics will tell you science is not reliable. That humanity doesn't know as much we think we do. That science is all biased.

They ignore a hundred years of scientific advancement built on cumulative research and knowledge if it doesn't suit their political views and opinions.

But they run their farms based on soil and animal science and when they get sick they still go the doctor and end up in the health care system for lab tests and diagnostics. Their kids get vaccines, antibiotics and pain killers and other treatment when needed. All based on science.

But they say we should not trust science, but they live their lives as if they do, all the while telling us that science is often wrong.

They are good at denial, but not so good at examining and admitting their own dependence on science and knowledge.

In the worst cases they end up like little lentil.

Chuck, in your little flat Earth manifesto you somehow missed answering my question I keep asking you on this thread. So I'll try again.
How many peer-reviewed papers were produced by doctors belonging to credible scientific organizations in support of lobotomies?

[chuckChuck]

A5 let us know when you want to join the discussion about science in the 21st Century! LOL

You should really try to keep up instead of posting lame arguments that have no relevance in 2023.

And you broke your own rule again that data and science that is more than a few months old is out of date!

You can read about the history of brain surgery to treat mental illness over the centuries.

Chuck is an all or nothing kind of person.

In his mind you cannot be skeptical about something, you’re either 100% for it or 100% against it.

He needs to ignore a lot in life or he’d have a life crisis almost daily trying to wrap his head around how peoples minds actually work. I guess he’s read too many papers on the evolution of brain surgery yet no papers on the evolution of understanding human psychology.

[AlbertaFarmer5]

I see, so scientists in the 21st century are infallible because we already know everything there is to know, and science has reached its epitome.
But back in the dark ages of say for example, the late 20th century when scientists, using the latest knowledge and data were writing peer-reviewed papers about global cooling, they didn't have a clue what they were talking about because science was still in its infancy. That was before the science was settled, and before science was decided by the Democratic process of concensus. unlike today when they are always correct, because all scientists always agree with every other scientist.

[Blaithin]

Apparently the last 100 years of science development are the only years that count. Those are the years we need to believe in.

The solar system and gravity are fraudulent because that is science older than 100 years so they don’t count.

We’ve advanced from DDT to Neonics and these are the kinds of scientific advancements that prove science is currently at it’s pinnacle and cannot be questioned. It will never get better now.
