Scientific maps are wrong when they are shown to be inconsistent or incomplete. Of course people can make mistakes.

- stcredzero 8y agoI was responding to, "There may as well be no territory, the only thing relevant is the map and how it reacts to probing." If there are only maps, then when map A is wrong, I can just make my own map B for which map A is a good map. In that case, no map is falsifiable, and all maps are equally valid. It's Postmodernism!
