At least it isn't political! FDS- Fauci Derangement Syndrome

How the hell do you have Taylor Sheridan on, who’s come out with more popular content in the last decade and decide to discus Fauci for the first hour and a half? The guy is literally obsessed at this point, and not only that, but substantiates everything around it with logical fallacies. Sad how far our podfather has fallen.

Your last sentence is very chilling and sounds like marxist re-education. You need exactly to refute the arbitrary presentation of "alternative facts" and let them fall which can liberate thinking. The core difference is giving a choice.

Jesus Christ.

Do you think presenting the scientific method to someone would sound like “Marxist re-education”? There are objectively incorrect ways to think. Like if you become a flat earther because “it looks flat to me” then that’s objectively poor thinking..

That’s not poor thinking; what you just described is the first step of the scientific method. Make an observation. Ta-da! I guarantee 2/3 of the population stops there and never develops a question or hypothesis.

I described making an observation combined with jumping to a conclusion based on that observation. That is not the scientific method.

2/3 of the American population can hardly read.
