> He may have the credentials but his social media activities and his blatant hate for the scientific community (as he repeated in the post) during the pandemic seems to be driven by anger and hate. If he despises the scientific community that much and sees his studies and pre doctorates as a waste of time but uses them to give himself credibility seems odd.
(Full disclosure: I have a science PhD)
By the end of it, I hated my supervisor so much I could barely manage to speak to him and I went out of my way to avoid him.
At the very end, after I'd done my viva and some minor corrections to my thesis I knew I've ticked all the boxes and the only thing left was to go in to clear out my lab space. At that point I simply didn't want to talk to anyone from the group so I went in very late one evening when I knew no-one would be around and packed up all my stuff and took it away.
I didn't say goodbye and there was no leaving party. I was there for three-and-a-bit years, and then I wasn't. I have had no contact with the group, or my supervisor, since.
I can easily imagine that someone with credentials / qualifications in a space might have issues with the system/community that appears to govern that space.
