Thanks Al Jazeerah for this fine interview. Less than half of the 40+ comments posted so far are positive about Neil deGrasse Tyson and his views, a sober reminder that the struggle against ignorance, misunderstanding and disinformation which has been going on for thousands of years, is probably unending.

You can lead a human to knowledge but you can't make him think. If pundits tell you something is true, and you don’t have the critical thinking skills to evaluate their statements, then you are putty in their hands, as they shape your worldview to their will. If you think you know everything then you need to re-evaluate your thinking.

Yh he genuinely is overrated . The clown was a mascot for the new atheists back in 2010, claims religion is absurd and the belief in God, yet does not ascribe the same to transgenderism, he says something is real because you believe it to be, therefore trans is real. Look it up with Ben shapiro the Zionist settler

Mr Tyson said nothing I haven't heard before, such as "think of all the great advantages modern medicine has brought about". Once again he trots out that fable without close scrutiny the actual data showing that clean water, clean air and good basic hygiene was the thing that brought about a better life expectancy and better public health. As the interviewer repeated the other stupid it's " claims that Hydroxychloroquine, and Ivermectin were effective treatments for Covid was dangerous" , Mr Tyson didn't interrupt him and say " You'd better check ALL the data from all the studies, which, apart from the poorly dosed study of relatively unhealthy people that gave them such high doses their kidneys shut down( using them to prove something bad with the drug), all the sound published studies showed these well used drugs to work well in the right sequences. Either he's unaware of this or as with his other points, chosen to promote the very thing he despises, unaware that it is "scientism". The interviewer was ignorant of the topic and was not fact-checked by anyone in his organisation, just repeating what he'd heard on some political medical press release. He has shown that he is just as easily led as those he belittled for not checking the facts. The reason for this is( he says) because the education system has failed to indoctrinate us into blindly accepting what someone says ( without evidence) as long as someone who is a celebrity scientist backs it.... wait that's not what he said but what he does on this tirade to promote his book; but any other creditable doctor molecular biologist, or cardiac surgeon would not even be granted access to such a big broadcaster as Aljazeera. Sorry if I misspelled. This news was all I could listen to, but it has descended into gutter press and sensationalism to allow such misinformation on the air, and all can say is "Tyson, try your own medicine.... check your facts and cited studies( that have been repeated when corrupted funding has somehow slipped through the "net") Not once in this interview did Tyson refer to multiple researches or cite a peer reviewed journal paper... nothing no evidence mentioned just a criticism of anyone not at his level of scientific celebrity. Guilty of everything he rails against he has no credibility. Tyson go back to the drawing board and check you own homework! (With respect.. I say only what I believe to be true... so don't dismiss my points without first checking the evidence, which is what you must do, rather than just believing someone YOU trust like the ( laughable ) CDC ! Check their PR, and see how accurate any of it is. Hope you return to science as well as celebrity.

It’s super ironic that Neil is one of the biggest advocate and influencer of propaganda… he is a literal actor. This man is not a medical physician in any way, yet is advocating a medical procedure that has not had standard “scientific testing” for safety and efficacy. Everything that comes out of his mouth is defensive nonsense.
