Who is the biggest hack of the scientific community?

>"I'd love to get a Ph.D in applied physics or fluid mechanics, but that's a seven- or eight-year commitment" - Bill Nye

This guy right here.

>mfw someone tried to argue that his honorary degrees are just as valid as a legitimate one

> believing that experience isn't more important than a post-graduate degree
Someone's never tried applying for a job.

You would hire him as a tenure track professor?

You wouldn't?
The novelty alone would attract students.

But I see what you're saying. I've never met a professor without a PhD even in engineering.

>You wouldn't?
No, because that would be retarded. Not the guy you're replying to btw.

No. I would as a teaching faculty though and make him teach some bullshit like "Science for All 101."

Descartes.
Dualism set us back at least 500 years.

This fucker.

Are you upset because he called your imaginary friend bullshit?

This is a made up quote meant as a joke, but it's actually very close to his views, which are fucking ridiculous.
He's also stated that a totalitarian marxist/socialist welfare state is a must, or else we will all be forced into murder and cannibalism.
Not only does he not grasp the "testing" part of the scientific method, he goes off on political rants using logical fallacies every other sentence.

>Ken Ham is still alive and brainwashing children
>mfw

Less than 1% of the population is fundamentalist christian.
The 80% that make up the nation are not fundamentalists.
If they were, you'd see a very different united state then you do now.
The majority of people are still moron that use more fallacies than they use logic, but they're still not as dumb as people that think the world is only 2,190,000 days old.

>Less than 1% of the population is fundamentalist christian.

Guess I really lucked out then didn't I

depending how you define fundamentalism, something between 1/4 and 1/3 of the US is fundies.

46% of Americans are creationists.

>46% of Americans are creationists.
got that wrong.
46% of Americans are young-earth creationists.

if we add in old-earth creationists the number is presumably much higher. It might be fair to guess that well over half of Americans are creationists.

>reminder that we're only a step above Turkey in accepting the evolutionary theory.

>black science man
>obsessed with debating religion

Tyson has made it a point to never engage in any religious debate. He says nothing in regards to religion - he's never even claimed to be an atheist, much to the chagrin of other prominent atheist scientists. He purposefully stays out of religious discussion to the best of his ability.

I'm not saying he's not a hack - I'm just saying you should know a little bit more about the people you're attempting to criticize.

>46% of Americans are young-earth creationists.
Holy fuck, I don't want to live anymore.

Say what you want about Michio Kaku but he's easily the best scientist out of the "science education" group since Sagan.

>Harvard Summa Cum Laude/Top of his Physics class
>Built a fucking particle accelerator in highschool
>70+ Published Articles
>Co-Founder of String Theory (Pretty much a meme now but still impressive)
>Significant contributions to QFT and Superstring theory

Just because he decided to sell out and make millions by writing about the "future of science xD" doesn't discredit the fact that on a given day, he's almost certainly the smartest and most accomplished guy in the room.

Michio Kaku is good and all that, but all that shit about the future of science with those cringy videos that he does makes you kinda believe he is a hack, actually that was what I thought when I saw him for the first time in a video shared by a "I'm superior for sharing science videos in my social networks" faggot that failed in the school.

I don't know but I'd bet that it's an Indian astronomer.

Dedekind

The fact that he believes in or at least promotes the idea of anthropogenic global warming kind of bothers me.

This man.

That's a misquote.

IMO, NDT is not part of the scientific community.

Not that he wants to be. I'd bet he prefers being a "celebrity", hosting reddit AMAs and going on the Colbert Report and what not.

Or is it?

I would say Bill Nye, but he's not a member of the scientific community.

>anthropogenic global warming is a meme

> no evidence /x/ mythology is real

This lol. Does he even have a single research paper to his name?

No I'm pretty certain he actually said that

...

>no evidence
>mythology

Me
>Been getting paid for 3 years to research and release papers
>Released 0 papers in that time

hehe.... fuck.

> no evidence = real
/x/ logic

What's wrong with that statement though?

Kek

Me too.

>real

I think you have to be part of the scientific community first to count.

>Mfw I thought that only 46% of the country was actually retarded.
>In reality it's more than half of the country.
We should just let Russia glass this shithole.

...

>Average human bean
>human bean
>bean

What.

No he defiantley has shit on religion in public. Maybe not bill the cuckold guy levels but I've heard him complain about it.

Where?

Hello newfriend.

It's a misquote from the song youtube.com/watch?v=-DSVDcw6iW8

>8155847
I'll see you that and raise you this

Probably the faggot who keeps spamming Veeky Forums with popularity contest theads as if his shitposting was a valid scientific topic.

God I fucking hate protesters who block traffic as if their concerns are somehow more important than the need to get to work or going home.

>Ferguson
Misplaced anger towards the American police force is also aggravating. African Americans are the first to cry racism when ANYTHING happens to them. Even their own intellectuals hate their people.

I think out of all my friends that are in scientific fields, I'm the only one that dislikes Bill Nye with such deep disdain.
