@bigfatsurprise Also it is not very correct to lump errors on sugar (and similar policy mistakes) debunked rigorously with bogus research on the effectiveness & side effects of vaccines, particularly during a public emergency. — PolitiTweet.org

Many not getting it. 1- One single study (a new result) can thward 100s of previous ones (falsification), but it needs to be rigorous (not BS a la Malhotra & others). 2- Science has shown EVIDENCE of correcting itself; you may want to *accelerate* (but not substitute w/quackery. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ For instance: the exact difference between real estate (immeuble) and furniture (meubles): fruits on trees are meubles, once plucked they are meubles. https://t.co/oodlUIDcI0 — PolitiTweet.org

Cambaceres is a curious individual. He is the author of the Napoleonic code (Code civil), but cared about food, not power; he had 2x a week a dinner party for ~20 people serving 36 dishes. https://t.co/nwmGhWe4d0 — PolitiTweet.org

@HoldenPSykora No, imbecile. There are continuous instances of science being wrong, but rare ones where it is not superior to nonscientific BS. You correct science by science. — PolitiTweet.org

One problem w/info: 100 clinical studies show X. 1 (bogus) paper claims nonX. That paper will spread on Twitter & the person behind it will be on Joe Rogan. Conspiracy theories spread on Twitter. And 1000s will die because of the bogus result. The incentive is to go for bogus! — PolitiTweet.org

Turns out the constitution has a variant of the Gödel-Popper rule. Note that the name "Gödel-Popper rule" is something I put together to merge Popper's paradox of tolerance and Gödel's naturalization's anecdote, see Skin in the Game. https://t.co/DWWh9SdS2C — PolitiTweet.org

Banning Trump after Jan 6 is entirely compatible with the foundations of democracy, even necessary. By the Gödel-Popper rule, a democracy should never give its tools to those who want to thwart it. — PolitiTweet.org
