The moment I hear someone start with this absolute bottom of the barrel Reddit-tier sci-fi nonsense I switch my brain off. These are the types of people who cannot think for themselves and just take everything they read at face value.

this is wrong btw. popsci are heavily watered down for retard and are often conveyed heavily skewed toward the direction the communicators want. it also give midwits the illusion that they are smart and the courage to spout nonsenses by parroting what the popsciers tell them.

The problem is, when/if it's not wrong, it's always useless.

You are literally a brainlet if you think that correlation alone gives causal evidence

Popsci is s meaningless ad home, if you disagree with someone's research give the reasons why don't just insult them because you are frustrated by your own mediocrity and lack of social charisma.

pop-sci is wrong by default because it pretends to give answers instead of merely constatations

They have to be, it's not content for specialists, it's for laypeople.
>are often conveyed heavily skewed toward the direction the communicators want
Move along to someone else then, there are countless pop-sci outlets and authors.
>it also give midwits the illusion that they are smart and the courage to spout nonsenses by parroting what the popsciers tell them
