EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.

    Chill science should be questioned otherwise it’s not science

      Science should be questioned by people who understand the science, not by random people who don’t understand the research. Which a lot of people who know nothing about the science or the maths/data or whatever try to question it

        Right, all the people talking shit about dark matter in this thread surely all have 4 PhDs up their ass

        No investigation, no right to speak

        People are free to express what they think about science. There’s no law saying otherwise. Why are you guys so upset?

          “There’s no law against it” is a laughably stupid reason to do something. They’re free to do it but everyone else is free to acknowledge that their uneducated/misinformed skepticism is harmful to society and that their opinions are meaningless to those who aren’t dumb. Leave the contemporary science denial to those who actually somewhat know what they’re talking about.

            The person you’re replying to believes climate change to be a lie, so I think you’re probably wasting your time.

            This is a question on AskLemmy. It won’t change anything in the world. Why do you care? You guys should touch grass

                Let’s touch grass together to measure how much photosynthesis grass can do? Please, it will be fun. But I’m open to another scientific experiment if you have anything in mind

        This is a really stupid take, how do you think new scientists are made if not reaching for enlightenment to answer their own questions?

        Science is about being wrong and learning.

          Yes, and people that challenge the science who then become scientists actually research/experiment thenselves. They don’t go and claim science is false until they have actual reason/evidence to believe so. One can question science all they want when they do their own science on the matter and it isn’t handily disproved beyond reasonable doubt by existing evidence.

          Most science deniers do not do that. Making anti-science claims without obtaining solid, consistent evidence is not science.
