tesla castrated himself and einstein was a communist kike
"(((science)))"

>>8860167
>tesla castrated himself
False. Tesla was, however, pretty odd with quirks like a phobia for women with pierced ears and basically being in love with a pigeon in old age.

>>8860214
>pretty odd with quirks
the man was a full blown lunatic m8

>>8860214
Even i can see that is what he was already referring to.

There seems to be a strong disposition to focus on minutia on /sci/, their so used to finding the first domino in the line, that they believe everything is like this and its only the small picture that matters.

>>8859956
>Incoherent yelling at them for talking about science rather than doing it.
Kind of a big deal...

>>8859956
Who's the guy between Newton and Tesla?

I don't see what the problem is. Social science is still science. Bill Nye is ahead of his time.

>>8860242
Castration means cutting your nuts off, and Tesla never did that. Maybe a metaphor, but that qualifier wasn't mentioned. He was celibate for life, a well known fact, like Newton.

>>8859956
I don't see why (((Einstein))) is the most worried.

>>8860436

>>8860066
I'm pretty sure biology is science

>>8860456

Is Bill Nye a field in biology?

>>8860487
tl;dr

Better question, who cares?

What this science march has taught me along with pop sci is that, like most things, people are not attracted to a the actual substance of science but the romantic idea of it. They like to think that the process of research is nothing but reward and unstained lab coats flasks containing colored liquid in them, and if it wasn't for those ignorant republicans we would have our eco-friendly utopia by now. But like I said that's with everything and no harm comes from that alone.

The thing that gets under my skin though is how these people who are outside of STEM want to make science about them. It's a co-option technique that happened in video games, with atheism, with comics, with academia and so on. The Bill Nye shit is a great example. An aspect of science is definitions. Certain systems, structures, and processies have specific terms that they are defined by and if they are in any way not aligned with those terms in the definion, They are by definition not that thing and something else (that was poorly worded). Example of this is the difference between and Organ and and Organoid. Ohio State recently made a brain. It was a ground breaking study that is going to pave the way to how we study neurology. The guy who made it said that he didn't make an actual brain organ he made a brain otganoid because the Brain he made does not contain blood vessels. Now look at bill Nye trying to tell us that vaginas can be masculine and penises can be feminine. Try to tell is that intersex is a NOT a deformity of sex organs and is validation of a spectrum. That a modified penis in a sex change surgery is a legit vagina.

They are using science as a means to an end. And the end is their beliefs and out look on reality.

>>8861145
They did. Human sexuality is complex. Just because you don't agree with published research doesn't mean it's false.

Why is /sci/ so spooked today?

>>8861240
Gender is (or used to be) synonymous with biological sex. You better have some citations, Mr. Frankfurt.

>>8861240
>>Gender and biological sex are the same thing
They are. Most languages don't have two words for it since it's the same shit.

sometimes I wonder if in a way bill and people like him are doing a favor for /pol/. By being so incredibly fucking retarded that only retard lefts will follow him, and anyone who actually cares about anything real will be like "shit fuck that"

Lemme guess, you saw science guy bill as a kid and thought oh wow cool dude science is cool, and then grew up to actually get into some real shit, and then you see this, and you cannot connect it. There's no question. Its a different force.

>>8861326
it's bull but I don't really care about that. the problem is that the gender people say that gender and sex are separate, but to them sex is essentially meaningless and gender, which is very vague and overencompassing, is everything.

>>8861174
Sociology and gender studies are not sciences and psychology is a protoscience.

or this
http://www.lacan.com/nonexist.htm

Besides papers by or about Lacan I can't think of any work on the subject that isn't saturated in identity politics. I had the misfortune of reading Whipping Girl, in which a trans woman admits gender identity is at least partially a cultural construct, but then continues to cling on to their gender identity and entertain ideas of "genderfluidity" and "non-binary gender" as if what someone identifies as is just as real as what organ is in-between their legs.

My point is what we think of as "masculine" or "feminine" are largely the products of our cultural background. I think of skirts as really girly but they're not in Scotland. I think going to a nail solon is really girly but rich Brazilian men get weekly manicures and facials.

>implying the "scientists of old" would give any more than the minimum amount of fucks to say, "well, that's silly, but whatever," and continue working on real science.

Complaining about pop-sci is not profound. "real" scientists have had to work around stupid people since the conception of the scientific method. Bill Nye and SJW crowd are still far above climate change deniers in terms of general intelligence.

>>8861258
>Gender is (or used to be) synonymous with biological sex.
>The sun does (or used to) revolve around the earth.

I don't disagree with you, but appealing to what "used to be" is a very weak argument.

I only said "used to be" because I have no idea what the hell liberals want it to mean anymore. It meant exactly what I said when I learned sex ed in middle school, and I'm a senior in high school.

Newton was a very religious guy who worked with alchemy... he would probably hate Bill Nye and the "I Fucking Love Science" crew.

not to say Euler and Gauss that also were both christians, Euler being very religious.

This is what's happening, people on the right started out as the punching bag for so long, where fox news was clearly the station that had an agenda with it acting anti-progress in the early-mid 2000's and such.

The left got gay rights and civil rights where they needed to be at first.

Then the left started getting cocky and started doing the exact same thing, they rejected anything that wasn't their world view, appealed to a narrative (See: CNN). Everyone started romanticizing the idea of being on 'the right side of history', to the point where they would call anything racist/oppressive, and started making up new -ism's to fight so that maybe they could get their names in a fucking history book.

What they didn't think that would happen would be the backlash from logical liberals, moderates, and moderate right wingers. Now everyone who doesn't think that a white person wearing cornrolls is the devil is shifting rightward, and the people who were already right wing just shifted even further due to the left basically giving them more credit, and basically gave them free reign to make outlandish shit seem reasonable under the guise that the it was less retarded than what the radical left was saying.

So now we have the alt-right, a frog on a hate symbol list, a meme president, and Bill Nye literally sucking the cocks of trannies for that sweet politicised science money.

I've been waiting for the nukes to come for a while now.

Black Science man does tend to opine on things he has no expertise in, such as flying helicopters.

>>8863951
Tesla isn't even a scientist. He was an engineer and his pigeon was probably male.

We should ask ourselves what they thought of philosophy being mixed in with "science" then see what modern scientists think of sociology as a hard science. I believe you will get the same results this is a provable and repeatable experiment DIY that's science people's opinions and identification are not.
