Had to look that up ("woo woo" = unfounded or ludicrous belief).
- gipp 11y agoIt's usually a bit more specific than that. Something like "Disguising an unfounded or ludicrous belief as science by using the right vocabulary, just in nonsense ways."
- sudioStudio64 11y agoRight, like Deepak Chopra saying that "brains are soul localizing devices". Using the misconceptions around scientific jargon to describe the same old dualist who-hah (that one's my own).
