As the first and second laws of thermodynamics are well understood and tested theoretical principals that have been experimentally and theoretically verified for ~170 years, there is far more than "the common wisdom" backing the expectation that the system would heat up.
A common conversational tactic to lead the conversation into conspiracy territory is to cast unsubstantiated doubt on a settled topic - then frame the orthodox view as something pushed by an "establishment". A far more interesting discussion emerges when data is presented, or absent data a plausible mechanism for harm.
There is nothing wrong with studying the biological effects of EM fields. We certainly know that small quantities of Benzene, or Arsenic have large impacts on biological organisms - and that biological organisms react to certain portions of the EM spectrum in complex manners e.g. Visible light, and infrared. However we do have some good bounds on how much impact there can be and where it is likely to emerge based on ~120 years of radio spectrum deployments.
