You think it's anti-intellectual to address intersectional society-wide concerns? Is it truly "intellectual" to pretend that they didn't happen or that they only happened in the past?
It is the pinnacle of ideological arrogance to believe that scientific fields, as practiced by scientists, exist in perfectly sealed vacuums that require no interaction with government or society and that every experiment that is funded, all research undertaken, is powered by sheer scientific purity instead of the unfortunate material realities of funding and decisions made of "what" is researched and for how long.
It does affect all of the above fields if funding and resources are wasted in pursuit of junk science. Announcing that such junk should be "free" and distributed out there under the belief that it will magically be banished by the light of truth and cease being distributed entirely because it is wrong with no other actions necessary is willful ideological ignorance.
Lord in heaven above, this child. You haven't listened to a single word I've said and you're just repeating yourself. Have a good night.
Assuming people that disagree with you are children, and using that for insult purposes only demonstrates your contempt, even hatred, of children.
You failed to address what I talked about so of course I repeated myself. You had nothing to respond to but your own arrogant dismissal of issues and your empty sense of superiority.
You're hilarious. Thank you for the entertainment. Have a good night
So much for your fedora-tipping farewell. You needed to add just how not mad you are at having uncomfortable issues brought up that you failed to address.
No I'm just amusing myself at this point because I can tell you're one of those people who needs to have the last word
You're trying to win a last word game while demonstrating how very not mad you are in the most transparent way possible.
You had nothing from the start but your bloviating arrogance, and now you have nothing left but enraged immaturity after calling me a child (because children are contemptible to you, Redditbrained as you are).
Since you're not posting anything of value (and didn't do so before) I'll just repost a reflection of what you're continuing to do.
