Science? No. Critical thinking? Yes.

It's good for entertainment of the "lol stupid hippies" and "lol stupid christfags" variety. Barely any educational value of any kind unless you are less informed than a hamburger.

They aren't a bad resource for education though. They made good points in every single episode.

No.

They didn't even do the last episode on their bullshit like they promised.

Because it was cancelled before they could. It also feels like they only admitted to the alleged bullshit on their shows because of peer pressure.

>using Wikipedia as a source for information

Just look at the talk threads of almost any page surrounding a controversial issue. There's arguments abound regarding wikipedia's alleged neutrality.

>>7804662
No to both, actually. Letting fringe parts of the opposing side ramble on for a bit, and then attacking their claims furiously without letting anyone reply does not resemble critical thinking.
>>
>>7804847
Regardless of their methods they supported their side pretty well.

>gun control episode
Gun control is bullshit because sometimes people need to defend themselves!

>death penalty episode
The death penalty is bullshit because it's never okay to kill a person under any circumstances!

That isn't what they said, but thanks for the reply liberal.
