I think you missed the point and also embellished what I said.

Firstly, while it was retracted, it was in publication for over 20 years and was cited by numerous scientists as unimpeachable. Perpetuated bad data tends to spread like a pyramid scheme and accepted as gospel.

I never said all other scientists are frauds. I simply tried to show why having a least some reluctance in believing everything the "experts" say (because experts aren't always experts) without taking in the big picture can be just as bad. Fauci is the perfect example. His science on COVID was a pretty big fail(not because some of what he wrote was unimpeachable) but much of what he postulated turned out to be wrong . But more damage was done because he failed to look at the big picture which different political tribes parsed to push their narrative.


This was all attempting to answer a post effectively saying...."Stupid pilots......think they know more than the "experts"....just shut up and color". I'm sorry if you don't like my opinion.
