Charlie Brooker’s screen burn
Science is like a good friend: sometimes it tells you things you don’t want to hear
The wariness [of scientists] stems from three popular misconceptions:
1) Scientists want to fill our world with chemicals and killer robots; 2) They don’t appreciate the raw beauty of nature, maaan; and
3) They’re always spoiling our fun, pointing out homeopathy doesn’t work or ghosts don’t exist EVEN THOUGH they KNOW we REALLY, REALLY want to believe in them.
And don’t forget, they say they’re working for us, but what they really want to do is rule the world!”
“INERT INTELLIGENCE IS THE PARADIGM OF INSTITUTIONAL RACISM,” UC/Berkeley, Boalt School of Law. Uncle Al was in the audience when said bit of petulent fluff beamed out from the podium. Vote with the stupid – how can so many people be wrong?
(Proximity is not causality. Uncle Al’s sweetie was attending her class reunion. Her career is crushing the Officially Sad by representing commercial landlords. Liberals talk big until Accounts Payable farts.)
