Nah it's:
>Kaku
>Cox
>Nye
>Tyson
Kaku is the smartest by far outta all of them, his career started during the cold war era where his intellectual brilliance was recognized by the likes of Teller. He made some decent contributions but unfortunately gave up on research for publicity more than 20 years ago. Cox is just your run-of-the mill physics PhD who has a talent for music, and presenting popsci docos. Nye and Tyson aren't even scientists, with the latter only publishing 9 papers after getting his PhD before doing publicity.

America’s Prophet of Scientism
Neil DeGrasse Tyson puts his scientific imprimatur on nonsense.

Bruce Thornton and others have usefully dubbed it “scientism”: “Dressing up ideological beliefs or even fads in the quantitative data and forbidding jargon of real sciences like physics or engineering.” It allows progressives who actually know and care nothing about science to boast that they “believe in science” or “follow the science” whereas their reactionary opponents, presumably, do not. For some years now, the premier prophet of scientism in America has been Neil DeGrasse Tyson, who since 1996 has been the director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York, and who, like his fellow astrophysicist Carl Sagan before him, has won fame as a promoter and popularizer of science.

There’s one crucial difference between Sagan and Tyson, however, and it’s this: unlike Sagan, Tyson routinely puts scientism ahead of science. He’s totally on board, for example, with the cult of climate change. During the COVID lockdown, he was a reliable supporter of Fauci and company; appearing last January on the Patrick Bet-David podcast, he not only defended the vaccines but also, rather cold-bloodedly, defended the dismissal from their jobs of Americans who refused the jab:

> There’s a public health contract that you have signed, implicitly, as a citizen of a country where in part we depend on each other for our health, our welfare, security, and the like. And that contract is, in the best scientific evidence available at the time, if you do not get vaccinated, you will put other people in this organization at risk, and this organization does not want to take that risk, and so you do not have that job anymore if you decline it.

>> No.15776653

Aside from inventing out of whole cloth the notion of a “public health contract” and ignoring the fact that what Fauci was serving up wasn’t always necessarily the “best scientific evidence” at all (not to mention Fauci’s dissembling on the Wuhan lab and other matters), Tyson ignored the fact that the childhood vaccine mandates and school closedowns made no sense given COVID-19’s very low rates of lethality in younger persons, that the guidelines on masks and public distancing were capricious at best, and that the big promises about the single vaccine’s efficacy proved to be utterly bogus.

Under intelligent questioning by Bet-David, Tyson mocked concerns about the vaccine’s side effects (“I’ll take the risk that in ten years I’ll grow a third arm”), was blithe about the authoritarian nature of the lockdown measures in various jurisdictions (as well as about their massive psychological impact), and referred to the scientific “review boards and agencies and CDC” in the kind of devout way that a pious Catholic might speak of the magisterium. In short, he was a total scientific-establishment toady, absolutely insensitive to the tyrannical conduct of supposedly democratic governments in the name of public health and, one might add, thoroughly condescending toward Bet-David, saying to him: “I’ve read all the things you have, but I’ve read it [sic] as a scientist.”

>> No.15776655

But never has Tyson abandoned science for scientism more completely than he has when discussing gender ideology. Last May, when he was a guest on the Stephen A. Smith podcast, he replied to a question on the topic by serving up a ten-minute routine (which could easily have been reduced to thirty seconds) about a recent ride on the New York subway during which he noted that he could tell the male and female passengers apart because of “secondary and tertiary” features such as the way they dressed and wore their hair – his point apparently being that while X and Y chromosomes aren’t visible to the naked eye, such superficial signs of gender are visible, and can in some cases reflect an inner sense of identity that is, in fact, at odds with chromosomal identity. Tyson contended that it’s common to feel “80% female” on some days and “80% male” on others. (Really?)

In any event, he demanded, “why do you care?” Why, he asked, can’t people say “I’m a little of both”? He cited “tomboys” as examples of children who cross the gender line and Joan of Arc, who “dressed like a man,” as “an early example of someone who didn’t fit a gender category held by others.” In using these examples of cross-sex conduct and attire, Tyson implicitly misrepresented gender ideology, which insists that such matters aren’t just about passing feelings and style choices (or about the need to put on a soldier’s uniform to save France), but about deep-seated identities that transcend mere biology. He then asserted, rather breezily, that the conflict over biological men in women’s bathrooms and sports is easily solvable: instead of dividing teams by biological sex, for example, why not divide them by hormone levels? In sum, he insisted, it’s “intellectually lazy” not to “embrace transgenderism.” Smith didn’t challenge a bit of it.

>> No.15776657

Then, the other day, Tyson was interviewed on Britain’s popular Triggernometry podcast, whose savvy hosts, Konstantin Kisin and Francis Foster, went viral last year when they exposed Sam Harris, once celebrated as a hero of rational thought, as a sufferer of Trump Derangement Syndrome at its most irrational. Could it be that Tyson wasn’t aware of that interview, which all but destroyed Harris’s career? Had Tyson not heard of Kisin’s impressive book, An Immigrant’s Love Letter to the West (2022), or of his bravura Oxford Union presentation that went viral on YouTube last January?

I suspect not, for Tyson certainly seemed – at least at the beginning of the episode, which was entitled “Have We Lost Trust in Science?” – to feel that he was talking to a couple of easily manipulated simpletons. (Perhaps that feeling comes naturally when you’ve just done, as he admitted, a series of interviews with local TV news reporters.) After civil exchanges with Kisin and Foster about space exploration and environmentalism, the conversation moved on to the pandemic. Once again Tyson spoke in reverent terms about the “scientific establishment” – saying nothing about the many members of that “establishment” who’ve faked lab results and who kowtowed to Fauci because he holds the government purse strings, or about the wise dissenters from Fauci’s orthodoxy who signed the Great Barrington Declaration.

Then Kisin brought up the trans issue. Tyson had his usual schtick ready. “When you see another person,” he asked, “do you see their chromosomes?” Kisin snapped back: “No, you see the phenotype.” Tyson, visibly thrown by Kisin’s use of the word phenotype, chided him for it, then went into his overlong subway story, explaining, as he had to Smith, that by observing his fellow passengers’ “secondary and tertiary accoutrements” he could tell who was male and who was female.

>> No.15776659

But, he added, “if who you decide is male and female in the street is a construct of style and trends and what the beauty-industrial complex wants you to see, if that’s how we establish gender, then maybe somebody wants to be fluid within that gender. So they’ll wear a skirt but have a beard.” If they want to “mix and match,” and thereby “express…their freedom in a free country,” he asked, who are we to deny them that?

Upon hearing this, Kisin instantly shot back: “I don’t know a single person who wants to prevent people from dressing how they want or behaving how they want or choosing any name that they want.” In other words, Tyson was deliberately misrepresenting the trans issue. Kisin stressed that the controversy centers on such matters as ladies’ restrooms and women’s sports teams. Tyson, visibly riled, asked if Kisin had a third example, and, without waiting for an answer, sniffed obnoxiously: “Probably not!” But Kisin had other examples: in the UK, he told Tyson, there are “female-only shortlists for positions in Parliament,” plus “diversity targets” for women in corporations. “Therefore,” said Kisin, “when you make a claim that you are female, you are attempting, whether intentionally or not, to insert yourself into categories that are specifically designed to protect women’s interests.”

As on Smith’s podcast, Tyson claimed that solving such problems is easy, proposing that teams be separated not by sex but by hormone levels. But where Smith had nodded along, Kisin shot back instantly that the differences between men and women aren’t just hormonal, but include such attributes as hip angle, lung capacity, and bone density.

>> No.15776660

Tyson seemed gobsmacked. When he suggested that the challenge of “trans women” in sports could be met by introducing weight classes, as in wrestling, Kisin replied that it would be unfair, for a plethora of biological reasons, even for men and women of equal weights to wrestle each other. Bringing to mind his snotty comeback to Bet-David, Tyson said, condescendingly, to Kisin: “I respect how active your brain is, but I’ve thought about all this.” But he kept proving, rather, that all he’s thought about is ways to push gender ideology on the politically woke and intellectually lazy. Eventually, after being calmly told by Kisin that one of his answers hadn’t “address[ed] the question at all,” Tyson took refuge in the lame claim that gender ideology is here to stay and that its opponents, quite simply, aren’t “fully informed” and are clinging to an “older view of the world” that, he said, brings to mind the era of separate black and white water fountains.

Tyson, of course, is black. And in going for the water-fountain line, he was playing the race card. By the end of the show, then, he’d left actual science far behind. It was a sad performance for any viewer who’d expected Tyson to address the trans issue as a scientist and not a booster. But if his rank scientism was disappointing, it was a pleasure to look through the hundreds of comments by YouTube viewers, who were almost united in their sanity – and in their disdain for Tyson’s twaddle. “Neil’s transition from scientist to influencer is complete,” wrote one. “He is one of the major reasons why there is a trust issue with science,” maintained another. And a third lamented: “Neil loses all his credibility with his take on trans issues. How does he not see that?” And perhaps the comment that summed it all up was this one: “In times like these I wish Carl Sagan would still be with us.”

>> No.15776661

Alas, it’s hard not to see the decline from Tyson to Sagan as mirroring the social and cultural and, yes, scientific decline that has afflicted America since the days when Sagan sat next to Johnny Carson on late-night TV, enthusing over the Apollo program, imagining the space explorations of the future, and talking eagerly about the “billions and billions and billions” of stars in the night sky – yet all the while managing never to try to use his scientific clout to try to make the latest popular but scientifically indefensible flimflam sound remotely legitimate.

only a tiny vanishingly small number of sciences have careers that are worth what they costed. the overwhelmingly large majority, nearly all of scientist, rely on the reputations created by that few to justify their existence. they do this by stealing credit for other people work
>my career is worthwhile because alexander flemming discovered antibiotics 100 years ago
>all scientists are valuable because one individual made a discovery
the truth that only that one individual was worthwhile.
scientists have to resort to dishonestly stealing credit for other's work because they're content to produce nothing valuable or worthwhile themselves. its like claiming that you're good at baseball because you're an alcoholic and mickey mantle was an alcoholic too.
somehow or other when another scientist gets arrested for fucking dogs, all the rest of the scientists aren't keen to share credit for that.

BSM's mother was white, how come BSM never acknowledges his white ancestry? Obama did the same thing, constantly bitching abut how oppressed he was when he could have just identified as white and taken advantage of all of the benefits of white supremacy.
Choosing to be oppressed when you have the option not to be seems like a pretty low IQ move if you ask me

all or nearly all of them were active communist subversives, which is why they were happy to do the CIA's propaganda work for them.
at the end of soviet rule in Eastern Europe, all of the former communist bosses escaped to go live in McLean, VA, just outside CIA headquarters.

First of all define smart. Do you mean IQ? It's without a doubt Kaku based on his achievements prior to fame but hes also smart enough to be the biggest fucking scamlord among them. Do you mean actual intelligence? Theyre all way too focused and specialist to actually use any intelligence for any real purpose outside their super micronized fields.
