Because Scientists Are Often Caught Lying
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/why-dont-people-trust-science-because-scientists-are-often-caught-lying
Because many scientists have been caught lying and misrepresenting their data to fit the conclusions they want rather than the facts at hand. Science is often politicized to serve an agenda. This is not conspiracy theory, this is provable fact.
That’s not to say that all science is to be mistrusted.
That is the actual core of the article.
But there are no numbers at all. So please tell me how many scientific publications have been found out to be untruthful?. If "often" would be applicable I expect at least 20 to 30%. In fact we are below 1%.
So another polemic hyporbole, that only serves to allow some fringe opinion to claim that they are as well as their well founded scientific counteüart. (We scientists know thatw e don'tz have the truth, but our reality is strongly founded in experimental reproducible facts.)
@ponderable saidIt depends on the subject. Here is a relevant excerpt from the article I posted:

"Here is where critical thinking is so useful and where reality escapes the indoctrinated – Who paid for these studies, and do they have a vested interest in censoring negative data on GMOs?
Well, in the vast majority of cases GMO studies are funded by two sources – GMO industry giants like Monsanto, Dupont and Syngenta, or, government agencies like the FDA and EPA. Very few studies are truly independent, and this is the problem. Both the government and corporations like Monsanto have a vested interest in preventing any critical studies from being released on GMO’s."

It depends how many truly independent studies are done. That varies.

You still deal with only words, Pond asked you about real numbers, statistics.
You want to weaponize science to your sick purpose and it is clear you have very little interest in science except for your pathetic efforts to diss hundreds of years of science.

@Metal-Brain
It's funny, you can't even acknowledge weaponizing science for your own sick agendas.

THIS IS FAKE NEWS
Sources in the Conspiracy-Pseudoscience category may publish unverifiable information that is not always supported by evidence. These sources may be untrustworthy for credible/verifiable information; therefore, fact-checking and further investigation is recommended on a per article basis when obtaining information from these sources.
Overall, we rate ZeroHedge an extreme right-biased conspiracy website based on the promotion of false/misleading/debunked information that routinely denigrates the left.

AMAZING. You found a whacko website agreeing with you. Now if you could only post the TRUTH instead of your weaponization of medicine for your own political purposes.
Funny how you can NEVER talk about that.
