It&#039;s worse in sociology. I left during honours after the professor told me: if you quote your sources, that is thinkers, artists, people that is who contributed to culture plus their reading list which I did during my undergraduate days and got good marks the you willget a class 3 mark. Since doing honours these are half externally marked and so the professor was worried that I was misguided and so he made me that offer. Continue as you did with your sources you will  get a class 3 pass. Quote our reading list only and you will get a class 1! Plus a part time tutorship teaching 1st year students. I left. Sociology is not a science. Pure ideology masquerading in the delusion where very little is actually new information. Psychology, what my then GF did was even worse. Nothing on the psyche. Zilch. Behaviourists busy about physiological reactions as in Pavlovian simplifications. Its about controlling us humans. Terrible waste of time and money. Pure fraud.]]></description>

Sounds like that&#039;s safely in the BS category unless such a theory is potentially expandable (at least vaguely) scientifically? 

As opposed to  flaunting scientific terms better used elsewhere in more apt contexts]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Problems in science are just a reflection of wider problems of society, for example, appearance today is in general more important than substance.

&quot;Second, if COVID-19 originated from a lab, understanding the specifics of the accident could help us design safeguards more effectively. Third, ignoring the pandemic’s origin risks emboldening malicious actors: if nature is always blamed, then deliberate releases may go unnoticed and unpunished. Fourth, we owe it to the victims to find out what happened.&quot;

Before and finally and absolutely: gain of function should not be researched at all. What could be the legitimate purpose of such a research? I believe many scientists would say: we do it because we can (we get paid for). Nihilism.

With the advent of nukes we entered an era when we can literally destroy the life. Then came chemistry, gmos, AI...all of this is in fact nihilism at its finest. Should we actually put some limits to science that increasingly resemble to monkeying, i.e. trial&#038;error with foundations? Or will this be considered as an attack on free speech?]]></description>

Lizzy, you should have seen The View (ABC Whoopi Goldberg panel of mainstream women personalities) this morning. They are the bellwether of mainstream Liberal narrative. OMG. Another belligerent pummeling. &quot;People won&#039;t be able to get their vaxxes!!! There will be people who die!!!&quot;. This is 2025 and still this sh*t pours out of these doofuses. Should anyone be able to go Walgreens and get a vaxx (or any other drug) advertised on TV and forgo seeing their doctor for prescription? This is a hardship? This is lack of access? They know nothing of the 2.68 million VAERS citizen documented adverse reactions of course. BigPharma BigMed controls the volume of bullshit, thus turning mainstream minds to bullshit. RFK Jr was really excellent, a worthy warrior for truth.]]></description>
