Science is about discovery. Scientific method is coming to a theory based on studies that can be overthrown at any point when better studies are discovered. The fact that these people think science is set in stone is insane to me.
The same can apply to the opposite side too.
Take for example, that stupid Fauci meme that floats around the internet, where it claims AZT was a "failed chemo drug" ergo, it killed more people than people who died from AIDS.
You can argue with "internet researchers" who have been fed information without qualitive data, and their belief systems are so firm that they are right, that the science is settled to them.
That's where the danger lies. It's the opposite edge to the same sword.
Bottom line is as a person you have to be always open to changing your ideas if proper evidence is presented. To avoid falling into cognitive dissonance. Its hard to do because so often our ideologies become part of who we are without realizing it. We become defensive when our ideas are challenged as if new suggestions are against us personally. My take at least.
Whats hard now is all the disinformation. We all have to be careful not to fall into that trap.
