Quantum 3 is in production. I haven’t forgotten about my promise to make it; it’s just been a bit of a crazy year, and when the video finally comes out, I really, really don’t want to have a Cyberpunk 2077 situation on my hands. Believe me, when it’s ready, you’ll see that it was worth the wait. Anyway, this channel's next video is on Friday. Keep your eyes open!

she's gonna move on to her next tactic now, instead of calling you stupid and trying to intimidate you with her irrelevant PhD, she'll move onto calling you malicious instead, attacking your character more directly. She'll try to shift herself from the position of strength to the position of weakness, and make this about her personally instead of the ideas you are critiqueing, then pretend you are doing the exact same thing. Be Careful KC, and go for the throat.

[@88_TROUBLE_88]

Absolutely correct. You have to anticipate this strategy shift because she certainly will be using that tactic to place herself in the position of weakness and then framing the entire exchange as an example of Croc "punching down" on the poor helpless damsel who deserves none of the hostile response as she's merely trying to have a civil discussion and where she went out of her way to avoid mis-characterizing your argument she was ever-present up 👆 there on the high road while you dragged her character thru the muck due to your lack of substantial arguments etc etc we all know what she'll do; it's just a matter of sitting back with popcorn and watching her do it. It. Is. Inevitable. LOL I can't wait to watch her pull this horseshit when she finds herself unable to reply and lacking in justification for her deceitful underhanded ruse resulting in her fate, ultimately, as a broken creature of obesity - her physique amounting to a melted candle puddle drizzled over a pile of broken knives aimed at your back..

I think he should he should make her seem as stupid as possible without ever actually using words like that or calling her names of any kind.

They need to be ridiculed. But that's again, just my opinion.

I had a run in with her a few years ago when she managed to produce a paper that had a conclusion without any analysis and which did not consider any alternative conclusions, even for the purpose of eliminating them. I explained how she could improve her paper by including the steps she had missed. She accused me of misogyny.

[@WorthlessWinner]

I wonder if she accuses journals of sexism when they reject her papers?

[@antecave]

I argued with her on twitter once. She told me to watch a 1 hour lecture. I did, took notes, and answered that I agreed with all the facts presented in there, but still disagreed with her conclusions from it. She never answered back. She is the embodiment of bad faith.

[@myfavoriteviewer306]

I thought I felt a disturbance in the force, as if a million Ray Comforts suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

[@AntiCitizenX]

The bit about "listen to the woman" was especially aggravating. She's basically implying that your entire disagreement is due to raw sexism, rather than any perceived flaws in her reasoning. It's a stupid ad-hominem, and she knows it.

[@KingCrocoduck]

She does more than imply it; in other portions of the video, she outright accuses me of being motivated by sexist bias, and her reasoning for this was that I occasionally used feminine pronouns in a critical context. I know that it sounds like I'm being uncharitable or distorting her meaning, but I swear that it's the truth.

[@HealingBlight]

She condescends on you, telling you to have humility... while claiming to be superior, and talking about how thorough she is while either quote mining or didn't failing to intake the full information of what you were saying? Was she just looking for a gotcha moment so hard that she didn't even care to listen?

[@ThePharphis]

"forgot the timestamp". I'm not inclined to believe her on that one ;)

[@AntiCitizenX]

I just did a quick check. According to Google Scholar, Dr. Winters has published 26 articles and received a grand total of 108 citations to her work. I personally have about 600 citations, with a single paper reaching 122. I'm hardly an influential researcher, either, with most of my stuff being relatively obscure and esoteric. It's something to bear in mind the next time she tries to hammer you with her mighty PhD. She's hardly the most productive scientist in the world.

[@KingCrocoduck]

Considering that she's coming up on her 50s, this is pretty sad.

@@CristiNeagu Very well put. The "phase" did the same for me. My original faith was really weak before turning away, probably similarly to yours, but when it comes back it's really strong and all it required was being open to the idea of faith for a year or so instead of being outright hostile.

[@vestafreyja]

Having earned a BSc in Psychology with a minor in Biochemistry, BSc & MSc in Computer Science and a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering; I have to agree with you. At least for me earning a degree in the Social Sciences if kept up with my readings in Psychology you could manage to put off most of your workload until the final two or three weeks in the course and have to scramble to the end of the semester. In regards to Biochemistry and Computer Science you could not use the same tactic as one could use in Psychology as far as course work goes because you are continually building upon previous knowledge.

[@noelplum99]

Pleased to see you back and about to watch the other two parts you currently have online. As someone with their own experiences of Kristi, I recognised her response to you as her typical modus operandi. What she does is definitely easier to put your finger on than why. I honestly still don't know if she is properly aware of how much she twists and misrepresents her opponents. My feeling is that she isn't as clever as she thinks she is (I would propose she could be described as a kind of intellectual narcissist, the way she waxes lyrical about her own wonderous skills and status) which becomes a problem because it couples in a kind of unholy alliance with her utter certitude in her own positions. She also clearly has very deep rooted ideological agendas driving her positions. Perhaps this is why she takes the stance she does? When your ideologies colour the statements you make (and the grubby ways you misrepresent everyone who disagrees to score a "win") to the degree they do with Kristi then presumably you start to view that as normal? I don;t know. These are only my thoughts on her. What I am fairly convinced of by now is that she has a lot of prejudice within her. You only have to listen to the way she says you will have to listen to a woman, or the wonderful time (which I have documented in a video) she suggested the reason Richard Dawkins gets to speak at lots of events and she doesn't is because she is a woman, that she has some incredibly deep rooted chips on her shoulder, an overwhelming sense of grievance and injustice, that ultimately underpins her constant gender and race baiting statements on social media that end up betraying what has become an ever deepening set of her own bigotries (or perhaps she just feels enabled to express them more freely and they were always there?). Ok, on to watch the nuke!

As Ben Carson has shown, just because you're good at one thing means NOTHING for the rest of your skillset.

[@bryanreed742]

You don't need mental horsepower to get a PhD. You just need perseverance. I've known lots of stubborn yet dim people who've gotten PhDs. Supposedly it's a certification that you're capable of independent research, but anyone who's tried to hire a decent postdoc knows that a PhD implies no such thing. Bad students are allowed to skate through, write an awful thesis that couldn't possibly stand peer review, and get their degrees. The committee signs off for political reasons. It looks really bad when a student who's fundamentally not capable is allowed to waste 8 years and a lot of university resources, and it's considered a grave insult to the PI to fail someone at the thesis defense stage. The system is definitely broken.

There's something to be said about soft science needing more statistics than hard science.

The encroachment of this psuedoscientific garbage on the scientific disciplines is something I've noted increasingly in my own field, and without a position of tenure there is absolutely nothing one can do about it lest your own name and that of your family's be dragged through the mud with accusations of racism and sexism. @King Crocoduck: If there is ANYTHING a fellow PhD student can do to help you in this war, please feel free to reach out and let me know. It would be my honor, and I'm increasingly worried this fight needs to happen sooner rather than later.

[@leonthompson1241]

it is truly wonderful to see you back please don't take so long to come back again hopefully we'll be seeing more of you

[@marvalice3455]

I've long awaited this. Though not as long as some..

[@IHaveWaffles]

Welcome back, missed your stuff man

[@COLDMKULTRA]

@King Crocoduck ... Splendid stuff Sir ...Welcome Back !!!

[@benjio77]

Recently watched a few KC videos. He's brilliant. Intellectual pugilism of the highest order.

[@TobyAsE120]

I already have a head ache from what you've show of her here. The coming videos ought to be fun... Good to see you again, welcome back!

[@anitawu9080]

I was literally saying last week that I miss your content! I'm so excited!

[@molagbal1904]

Nice to see you're alive. I'm a bit hyped.

[@LucTaylor]

LOL all you need to know about Kristi Winters is that if you make a reply to her, she won't watch it, she'll read one or two comments, decide what you said and pat herself on the back for being so smart, as she did with Noel Plum

[@KnightsofMerc]

the return that we needed

[@KingCrocoduck]

MERRRRRRRRRRC!!!!!

[@poseidonc1259]

You have been *GREATLY* missed my friend!

[@Rana_sumit_ortho]

Thank god , long awaited

[@biggamerjh1]

glad to see you back

[@freshely9309]

I love the extent of your vocabulary, and your passion for science. Good work!

[@coffeefrog]

So good to have you back!

[@paulcolbourne5555]

I wanna hear another kent hovind debate

[@thor97470]

Good to see you are back

[@dylanb265]

As a major in both physics (thanks, btw) and political science graduating in about a month, I feel fairly qualified to comment on this. Science is a social construct in the same way that a building is a social construct. We make buildings through working together with other humans, the way we make buildings is shaped by social values, different societies make different buildings differently for different reasons. These buildings often do different things, and all of this is borne of social conditions. But there are some effective ways to build a building for any purpose it might exist for and there are some ineffective ways to build one, for any purpose it might exist for. Facts about those buildings are also not social constructs, and we can learn about those buildings by analyzing them no matter what social conditions we find ourselves in, we just have to be careful to reduce our biases. So essentially, soft social constructionism with the bit of utility thrown in that trying to mitigate societal bias is important to pay attention to in the scientific method.

[@dylanb265]

As a side note, taking thermal and statistical physics while hearing these ridiculous criticisms about natural scientists not taking care with how they take and replicate measurements is a tad annoying to say the least

[@connernickerson5509]

Right, I think most of us agree with you, the problem is people like her whole rule university departments have no tolerance for any divergent view. If you disagree with them on ONE issue, you are a literal Nazi.

[@abstractnonsense3253]

_And yet their wills did not yield, and they struggled on._

[@WildWestMarshal]

Welcome back sir

[@matinhannak3649]

THE RETURN OF THE KING

[@hamo1701]

Sweet! It's been a long time KC. Hope you are well. Can't wait to see what you've come up with.

[@AppliedMathematician]

I love the figure at 3:22, especially the entries of persons that are both realist and anti-realist. Just in case someone thinks that topic is simple ... its one on the topics that appear intuitive and easy at first and then clarity starts to disappear the longer you think about it - at least for a while. Then you instrumentally use pragmatism to chose a position that is most fit for the application at hand and hope that someone else cleans up the cognitive mess this topic is ;) .

[@henrikthorsen5971]

6½ hours video response - it's almost like she's trying to filibuster this debate.

[@grantpritchard7492]

Well... what have we learnt thus far? Don't ever poke a sleeping crocoduck!

[@jeffhough7460]

Welcome back KC
