      Sigh. @RichardDawkins keeps doing this sort of thing, and it’s downright embarrassing.https://twitter.com/Simon_Whitten/status/1206237853375717376 …

      Replying to @gorskon @RichardDawkins

      So a bunch of idiots are attacking science and you have a problem with Dawkins ridiculing them? Your embarrassment is misplaced. You tend to have a bias against some of the more outspoken atheists because they give pushback against some of the social justice activists/theories.

      David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Simon Whitten

      No, in this case, Dawkins is either the idiot or dishonest. He’s been told the trope he’s repeating is BS and why. He’s still repeating it.https://twitter.com/simon_whitten/status/1206242906396413952 …

      Worth noting at the time he gave this talk he'd already had his misunderstanding of the "rape manual" comment pointed out to him in a letter to Nature. That doesn't stop him from repeating the lie, though. https://www.nature.com/articles/24973

          He hasn't "been told". It was a letter in Nature magazine. How do you know Dawkins even read it?

          Because editors of science journals forward letters of criticism they plan to publish to the author and ask the author if he wants to write a response to the criticism to be published along with the letter, that’s why.
