The greatest existential threat to our civilization today is the denial of science and the scientific community, and the proliferation of conspiracy theories and pseudoscience. This raises the question of what exactly should be done to address this issue given that we're just pulling out of one of the deadliest pandemics in recorded history -- one which has taken well over 6 million lives globally -- and we're getting ready to head into a climate crisis which is the direct result of a combination of anti-science narratives in the media on the one hand, and the complete lack of concern for the well being of black and brown people and citizens of the global south who are disproportionately effected by climate change?

There is no definite solution. There have always been retards that believed the dumbest shit. But it’s societies task to care for its weakest members, and the reason all is going wrong is society trying to appeal to the weakest and make them feel strong instead of actually strengthening them. The only way out of this is letting those who are the worst offenders (I.e. USA) crash and hope it will still be early enough to safe the rest afterwards

The science of pandemics and climate change are necessarily tied to politics. Politicians are among the least trusted group of people anywhere. Therefore, there will always be pushback on these subjects.

I reject the premise that it is a responsibility of science to take care of people. Let nature do that. Put yourself in a position to min max the consequences either way. Eg. I bought a house that will be comfy for the rest of my life if no climate change, or will be worth millions if changes are as predicted.

Let's use our brains for 2 minutes. What do you think happens when a country stops caring about its weakest members? Do you think they just disappear? "Out of sight out of mind?" Where is this arbitrary line drawn? I'd assume you think it's "not my problem" until the "Elites" decide people like you aren't important.
The expression "a chain is only as strong as its weakest link" exists for a reason. Leaving a "weak link" in society has never once led to anything desirable in the long term. Their problems will inevitably create problems for the rest of society

Lmfao last time I checked Tedro Gebreysus of the WHO (or however you spell his name) said that he has not been vaxxed yet as an act of protest against the failures of the global healthcare system and our inability to vaccinate sufficient numbers of people in the third world (which of course is a problem that is attributed to racism). In other words, he has not been vaccinated yet because he is protesting all the racist Europeans and Americans who refuse to share their vaccines with blacks and browns. If someone like myself refuses to get the vaccine, it's because we're racist, anti-science conspiracy theorists who have fallen for the anti-American and anti-semitic propaganda being pushed by Vladimir Putin and his armies of elite KGB internet trolls. When Tedros Niggayusus chooses not to get the vaccine, it's because he is a scholar and a gentleman who understands the science and understands the plight of the heckin indigenous BIPOC transfeminist community of the global south.

Praise Tedros Gebreyusus.
