Well, you should be skeptical in general, no? What’s the alternative, just adopting some other person’s opinions?
If this is about Sabine Hossenfelder, she has opinions and she has arguments. Sometimes she’s right, sometimes she’s wrong. Like everyone. Sometimes her opinions are well supported, sometimes I think not. Some of her explanations are sound, others contain mistakes.
- cmeacham98 5y agoI've never read Sabine Hossenfelder, so I can't comment specifically on her. However, life is about trusting other people and adopting their opinions. I do not have the time or energy to be an expert on every subject, so naturally I will have to read the opinions of other people who have spent time in that particular subject. Someone's previous record of factual accuracy as well as considering reasonable opposition to their points obviously will affect how much I trust them to influence my worldview, and how likely I am to believe what they say is true.
