Another "everyone must think as I think or else" person can't handle other people's opinions. What news.

  Ugh, right? I've found the worst people for this are teachers. Try saying in school "2 + 2 = 5", they'll go crazy and just won't accept alternative opinions. One teacher tried to flunk me once just because I believe -1 * -1 = -1. Those snowflakes just keep saying "you're wrong" and "trust the mathematical establishment". Sheep!

    This is even more disingenuous than the OP. A pile of papers and consensus among the academic elite and their funders is quite different than proofs in mathematics, which are self-evidently true, or logical inferences from axioms which one can choose to accept or not.

      By the 'academic elite' you mean 98.7% consensus among experts?[1] [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_consensus_on_climate_change https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_consensus_on_clim...

        Doesn‘t that number alone arouse suspicion in you? I suggest you read the paper in question and ask yourself if their methods really measure what they claim.
        • Timon3 3y ago
          What number would you not find suspicious?

            Presumably 1 in 10 dentists. I wonder what the parent poster would think about the consensus on evolution, or gravity.
