Here's the full video, if anyone is interested in the full exchange.
I tried to find it on Rumble and couldn't find it anywhere, it's not on Youtube. And Google is hiding it. I had to Google The High Wire to find it.
Tenpoundbass - there's no link. You didn't post a link to the full video.
Consensus is not science
If “science communicator” Neil deGrasse Tyson were in charge, scientific paradigms would never shift.
Dr. Tyson in 1633, “I’m not interested in Galileo’s research. I’m interested in scientific consensus! The sun revolves around the earth!”
Dr. Tyson in 1847, “I’m not interested in Semmelweis’s research. I’m interested in medical consensus! Hand washing does NOT prevent puerperal fever!”
Dr. Tyson in 1960, “I’m not interested in what Frances Kelsey has to say. She’s only been at the FDA one month. I’m interested in scientific consensus! Thalidomide is safe and effective!”
The fact is, Dr. Tyson has contempt for actual science. Any actual scientist knows that “scientific consensus” is politics not science. Actual science follows the principle Nullius in verba — “take nobody’s word for it” (examine the evidence for yourself).
The dude is an idiot. What was it 10-20 years ago he got thrust forward as some brilliant person. The more I watch him the more I cringe. He literally just makes shit up in a lot of his interviews.

The biggest crime to humanity is they put him on the end of a stick and used him to remake "The Cosmos", but really it was just an opportunity to dig at Jesus, and promote Man smart Neil smarter.
There, you have everything you need to know about him. You're not allowed on the propaganda box unless you tow the line. You might be allowed on as a guest once or twice, but generally if you are, you'll get an audience that just entirely disagrees with you, so you won't get any traction. This gives the appearance that there's "debate" on it.
He's been on stuff like Rogan though. If you have the patience within you to listen to that fool for a couple hours, you'll hear some of the dumbest stuff ever said for some renowned scientist. He's definitely a personality, but not a scientist.
He's definitely a personality, but not a scientist. There are some highly brilliant people that are on TV. NTD is not one of them. And no before some goes there, has nothing to do with the color of his skin.
