It can be very easy for people who have never professionally sat with people (and their families) who experience the devastation of mental illness to pontificate about its existence and treatment from an armchair.

I am just an average person with zero medical training and even I know he’s an absolute FRAUD and an idiot. It’s sickening that Republicans are so damn stupid that they ALLOW him this important responsibility. It’s infuriating.

Any evidence that refutes the conspiracy is part of the conspiracy.

Pseudoscience is popular in part because it seeks to confirm our beliefs.

Science can be less popular in part because it seeks to interrogate our beliefs.

Good science, like good art and literature, can upset the established ways in which we see the world.

Brain worms are out, nasal nanobots it's are in.

Dr. Jonathan N. Stea @jonathanstea.bsky.social · 2d

This is blatant misinformation because there are no nanobots in PCR swabs—they’re in Tylenol.

I once had the flu.

Then I took homeopathy.

It cleared up seven days later.

One consequence of tolerating pseudoscience is that people get sick and die when its legitimatization becomes baked into our culture, health care systems, and institutions.
