"Science is true" is a nonsensical statement. Facts are true. Scientific facts are facts derived through the scientific method. Conclusions reached through the scientific method are not always true. The scientific method is just a process, it has no quality of trueness.
It's like saying "Economics is true". What the hell does that mean? Economic models are all true? The field of economics is all true? The economy is true?
It's just something said by very stupid people who think they're smart.
he's not wrong. science (the process) is true whether you believe in it or not
the conclusions from science are always up for debate
so yeah, steakumms didn't really clapback anyone. they argued semantics
and yes neil degrasse is completely full of himself and an insufferable douchnozzle
