My biggest issue with "trusting The Science" is that the science I'm supposed to trust changes constantly. And not just what is being said but who is saying it. Do masks help or not? The CDC and WHO have said both and I'm supposed to blindly trust whatever they say because they're experts and it's "The Science". Is Fauci a reliable expert or not? Because whether his words were "The Science" or not seemed to be dependent on if he agreed with something Trump said or not.
How can I blindly trust "The Science" if no one can definitively say who is an expert on "The Science" or what exactly "The Science" is at any given time?
You shouldn't trust in "science". You should trust in the evidence presented to you. Science is just a method for using the evidence to reach the most accurate conclusion.
Yes. But the MSM will have you believe that a mere assertion uttered by a scientist is itself "Science". But in reality the assertion is just an assertion and nothing more, and it may be based on a model, a model that may be deeply flawed. Modelers...pffffft.
