While I don’t agree with your previous point, this is a very important point I agree with.
We see this cross-domain/in many areas, certain topics are taboo and therefore proper science is not attempted by anyone out of self-preservation.
One of the best examples of this is the UFO phenomenon, the stigma has been so strong for nearly a century now that a lot of otherwise-intelligent people are completely blinded to the objective reality.
- igor47 3y agoCan't tell if this is an excellent troll. Reminds me of the moment in "Behind the Curve" Netflix's excellent flat earth documentary, when one of the characters, discussing her feud with another flat earther, says something like "He's just so wrong about stuff. Could I be that wrong...? Eh, nope, I guess I know I'm right" But in case you're not trolling the parent by comparing their climate chance conspiracy theories with even more ridiculous UFO conspiracies, relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/2572/ https://xkcd.com/2572/
