/sci/ - Science & Math

I know no one actually cares, but I'm going to bump anyway...

>This is why there's no point in treating science as some divine truth.
No yeah, I guess Science is completely bullshit, and that's why computers don't exist.
Oh, wait.
Don't get me wrong, I fully agree that Science has been corrupted beyond belief, but that's because of disingenuous, grifting, sociopaths.

If you're out shopping for groceries, and someone randomly comes up and repeatedly stabs you, leaving you to bleed out while you're left squeezing Frozen Bags of Tendies against your stab wounds, are you just going to say:
>Ahhh geez, that's what I get for existing.
>There's no honor left in anyone in Society,
>and if you don't expect to casually get shanked while grocery shopping,
>then that's your own fault for following false prophets who led you to believe you wouldn't randomly get stabbed while buying a loaf of bread.

>Probably not as much as they think.
It's not about the money.
It's about Gatekeeping and controlling what is/isn't ""allowed"" to be Published as (((Science))).
It's just Sociopaths being Sociopaths.

>This is so easy to do that if you can't do it then I seriously doubt your ability to contribute independently to the academic enterprise.
Many employment opportunities are barred behind an incredible amount of ridiculous gatekeeping.

>We will have no need for a job, so why not return to the gentleman scientist?
Ummm no? If you have to work 50hours/week just to survive, there's not much time/money for research projects.

>Stop dumping your /pol/ folder and fuck off already. You're not contributing to the thread.
The thread is about "Solving Poverty". Of course I'm going to have some politically-adjacent posts regarding the subject.

I mean, I don't think pseudoscience is Science, but at any given moment at least 3/4 the catalog is filled with pseudoscience threads.

You guys have turned Academia into politically-charged pseudointellectual nonsense.
If I just replaced some words like "Poor" or "White" with Scientific Buzzwords, I could get published(under a non-identifiable pseudonym) in all sorts of Scientific Journals.

If you have a problem with the thread for being "off-topic", then fine; but I'm at least staying topical to OP.
