Neil deGrasse Tyson Teaches Scientific Thinking and Communication

[Brivido]

 

I just got this YouTube ad and I couldn't help but laughing, due to the evident irony of the situation: it seems like Neil deGrasse Tyson is talking about all the blind spots of the human mind, while, at the same time, not being aware of the blind spots of his own scientific mind. I am sure the course might be useful to a lot of people, especially blue and pre-rational. I just found it funny. You might like this, as an example of scientific self bias @Leo Gura

I remember when he said something a long the line of " I have not the slightest interest in investigsting what the new UFO phenomenon is"

That statement itself tells us that he is not a serious scientist. He is not interested in truth at all, all he wants to do is ego trip on his science and ideology. He should try comedy instead

It's not that bad. He's teaching a stage Orange paradigm to, probably, a stage Blue audience. And a big part of the American population is still stuck in the stage Blue paradigm.

The dude is not even a scientist, he's just a representative for science just like a pharmaceutical rep.

These popped up on my recommended feed the other day. Because NGT is exactly the guy who I'd trust with drug knowledge.
