[JahFocus CS]

You and @TheReal should link on a podcast and discuss the issues.

Not wasting my time "discussing" anything with Uncle Ruckus.

"The consequence of that is that you breed a generation of people who do not know what science is nor how and why it works," he reportedly said. "You have mortgaged the future financial security of your nation. Innovations in science and technology are the [basis] of tomorrow’s economy."

“Things that seem harmless can have devastating effects,”

the problem is there are a lot of dudes that THINK they know what the fukk they are talking about but couldn't explain the scientific method if their lives depended on it.

and even worse than that is ppl completely lack any critical thinking and think that they can just say and do whatever without proof but can get away with it cuz the majority agrees with them.

This man's job is to beg for money.
I don't put much stock in any of his alarmism

He's a smart dude that's been thrown in to pop culture so he's kind of become a parody of himself.
but he definitely knows what he's talking about.

 

[Maschine_Man]

you do realise he's a scientist right?

you do realise he's talking about the dangers of being anti-science?

do you read shyt or just skim through it?

lol, he wasn't talking about Tyson

 

[Micky Mikey]

Trust what cac scientists say about "science" instead of the black scientists from ancient Egypt who they stole their knowledge from brehs

We live in an adhd society that doesnt have the patience to sit down ponder complex issues. Its the consequence of living in fast pace society that is constantly on the go and expects things right away.
Half of America's children are on medication due to excessive mental stimulation from tv, video games etc.
Their dopamine receptors no longer work properly.

He may know his field of science, buts its been proven that he is an alaramist who is willing to use lies or alarmism to generate funds for 'science". So to say he knows what he is talking about when he cites no hard data, uses fake news clips, and etc, is ridiculous.

It's deeper than that. Their is a large number of kids that are being MISDIAGNOSED and pumped full of pills.

He is a salesman, nothing wrong with that, but when you remember he is selling trying to get scientific funding, you must realize to sell there most be a panic or a problem to fix. You can't sell we are slightly above average and just out the top 10 in the world or some shyt like that.

Saying dumb anti-science shyt isn't going to fly here without comment.

Im not anti science breh. Im anti cac science which comes with an agenda.. This breh Neil, is in on the plan to mislead the populace....

Or let me guess, scientists tell you the truth?

 

[Wild self]

Blame terrible teachers and parents that don't care about their children's learning abilities.

 

[GunRanger]

He's an arrogant douche


America doesn't need it's populace to be smart in science when corporations can just get visas for the top scientists from other countries. American companies are still innovating and growing economically. Saying otherwise is a lie.

Call the most prolific black science educator a fake, brehs.

Have your receipts be an anti-science political blog, brehs.
