Careful scientific work takes a lot of care. Dismissing that is not expected of a "thinker", however popular they may be. But his sensitivity to criticism is telling.

He's not dismissing careful scientific work. And there is no criticism as such. Not in that thread at least. That fellow is criticizing what "he thinks"
@ScottAdamsSays is saying. And NOT what@ScottAdamsSays is actually saying. World of a difference.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

I was basing my comment on the pages excerpted from the book in that critique. Seems to me Adams is dismissive of work done by climate scientists. What is he saying instead?

He's clarified that. In terms of developing a general skepticism against scientism. Not science. You realise that you can't really judge (or understand) what
@ScottAdamsSays based of that except, don't you? Either ways. Neither to validate. And certainly not enough to criticize.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
*based off that excerpt. (Typo, sorry)

The excerpted bits seem pretty clear: climate scientists are raking in the dollars with fake fear-mongering. Anyone who believes that is not worth listening to. When I review a paper, a single major blooper can give me a negative impression of the content. Same process here.

Nothing like that is in the book.

I sort of *get* your frustration with
#LoserThink :) Which made you decide to write a whole book about it, instead of just fulminating about the multiplying number of idiots in the world. :D0 replies 0 retweets 2 likesThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
