I wish we could detach people from their work.
I was/am abrasive unfortunately, I'm working on it, but I still suck. I especially cannot handle when people give false knowledge, I will make a fool of myself if I see someone lying or misleading.
I also run a popular website, specifically educating people on a niche field of education. I've seen people write off all the data collected and conclusions because of my personal behavior. I don't even disagree about my personal behavior. Just leave my scientific contributions out of it.
I will be dead and people will be reading my conclusions, while I'm alive, it seems to always come up(in online discussions).
