They love their industry-funded “science” too much to take a step back and think critically and objectively.

Most conspiracy theories have an element of truth to them

Yea let’s let fraudsters run amuck, he damaged the lives of millions of people, fuck him

The ham is fake

I can assure you that you are not hiring the best and brightest. The best and brightest left this bullshit system years ago and are doing their own thing

Because the indicators are propaganda set by out of touch elites

Prices are way too high compared to competitors

America in 10 years

Narrative brought to you by big pharma

We should make a vaccine instead of repurposing established drugs amirite?

Or the shortcut: hire based on nepotism

I’ll take ‘Made up numbers’ for $500, Alex.

Big words don't scare me. If I cared about research related to people with Down Syndrome, then I’d read it and understand it thoroughly, but I don’t. Critical thinking skills are largely innate, it doesn’t matter if you have a PhD or high school degree. Credentials say nothing about your intellectual curiosity or your motivation to learn new things

And really? Synaptic vesicles? Proteomes? I learned this shit in high school

If I was interested in this paper, I would read it and understand it like I do with all the bio papers I read…all research papers do is narrow in on something highly specific, they aren’t hard to understand once you have the vocabulary down. It’s like reading someone else’s code. And I highly doubt your so called trusted “experts” like Fauci understand any of it

If you took your high school and college education even somewhat seriously, you would have already learned how an action potential travels through a neuron, and you’d have a good grasp of science fundamentals to read any research paper. I learned it in my high school biology class along with a host of other things. Also, who says your so called “experts” know those details either? I’ve met a physician (recent new grad) had no idea what mitosis was, something I’ve known since I was like 12 and I develop software for a living. We’re supposed to trust what these people say? Nah

You know what I meant by “how a neuron works” so stop nitpicking, and speak for yourself about not being able to learn it in a day or two

People who are labeled as experts and who talk the loudest in society aren’t always capable of independent critical thought, so a lot of what they say is useless.

Nothing is stopping you from independently investigating a subject. You don’t need to know about phylogenetic trees and be a bio wizard to understand how neurons work and learning how neurons work would take you a day or two max. Pick a narrow but not too narrow scope, research it and make your own conclusions. I don’t know why anyone would ever blindly follow “experts” other than sheer laziness

Honestly it’s not worth bothering with him. He’s fat and convinced it’s irreversible without medical intervention and is caused by his genetics. You can’t convince emotional thinkers with logic

Welcome to the real world, where everything is backwards

Metabolism is pretty conserved across organisms, so it’s not even that bad

All these anti-aging posts make me cringe. Face it, you’re going to die one day. You want to be healthier? Eat a healthy diet and exercise instead of looking for shortcuts

if 99% of people cannot do something, then it is considered hard

Becuase software development is hard and most people, even those who call themselves software engineers, cannot do it

this whole article reeks of privilege

Yea definitely, that’s the way to do it, all startups should produce no value, inflate their stock and then the ceo should sell off his shares right before everything crashes and burns and screw his investors /s

There’s no such thing as the iPhone 7S Plus, but nice story

Middle class does not exist in South Africa. Look up their Gini index. If you think wealth inequality in the U.S. is bad, it’s 10 times worse in South Africa
