Restoring the Sciences: Science Under Attack

[@1gzjtr]

Prof Lawrence Krauss, your exellent research en talk about the topic are really appreciated. As a medical doctor I am extremely concerned about the politics in medicine. Prof Krauss keep up with the good work!

[@tpaine1815]

Understand this, Dr. Krauss is correct about not speaking out - now the threats are real; being accused of being a racist by your ideologically self-righteous colleagues in a public forum can have significant implications for career, for staying employed, for getting employed and broader into social media. This is a fact. The IDE community are working very hard to "chill" the speech of anyone who challenges their viewpoint. Smearing, labelling, are just a couple of the tactics.

These women-only faculty positions advertised are inherently sexist towards women as well, since they imply that women in STEM cannot compete with men on a level playing field.

[@magicbuns4868]

I find these kinds of arguments annoying. "Women beats man, and gets away with it" Some deep:- Omg, why this is worse for women than men! It is sexism against men, end of. We need to stop giving women the damsel in distress treatment. No, being given opportunities, status, and wealth because of your gentilia does not make you a blooming victim!!!!

Things are kinda different now. Get in the car, we're going for a gene drive.

Love everything Dr Krauss does

[@psychnstatstutor]

wonderful~ comprehensive, thank you

[@orboakin8074]

Fantastic video, sir. As a Nigerian, it is very refreshing and surprising to see a westerner actually call out the current trend of scientism, wokeness and progressivism aka radical leftism, that has tainted actual science and its principles of objectivity, verifiability, and experimentation.

Oh a religious program.

[@weltschmerzistofthaufig2440]

Whatever do you mean?

[@occupiedaustralia9952]

they are defending scientism @@weltschmerzistofthaufig2440

[@helicalactual]

you should check the sowing patterns on that one - George Carlin White boards now?

[@Jay-kk3dv]

I like Brett Weinstein’s definition of science, a system for describing phenomena and predictive power, that doesn’t mean science is “the truth” or “reality”

[@NAScholars]

My favorite is Neils Bohr''s definition of science: the "gradual removal of prejudices." It's certainly not an instrument of political power, as it has unfortunately become.

DING!!
