What is scientific extremism?
« on: 11/05/2017 20:27:55 »
I discussed a few moments ago about the emerging concepts of scientific radicalisation and obfuscation:

https://www.thenakedscientists.com/forum/index.php?topic=70123

Could it be possible that the scientific method be used for brainwashing purpose? I expect scientists to have an open mind on the unknown, not a incoherent or twisted logic to explains things that are occult to them. Many phenomenons are said "occult" and yet we care not to investigate fully.

In my opinion a bunch of scientists are liers, pretending to have genuine wisdom and getting their paycheck to build occult technologies, fostering the polarisation of modern science into elitism and radicalism.

An interesting notion, all scientists do not totally agree with mainstream, it is not like you think.  Peoples subjective educations stop that person understanding why the information is wrong that they were subjected to.  In the past I also thought conspiracy but now I have come to realise most of them genuine can not ''see'' past their subjective education.  The forced education is the extremism.
