Did this guy single handily make science cool again? I remember when I was in high school back in Queen, NY I had to hide the fact that I loved science from my friends because I didn't want them to think that I was a beta nerd.
Now I feel like science and STEM related subjects are more acceptable in mainstream circles because of him. I wish I never failed under peer pressure and trying to fit in with the "cool" " crowd back in high school and college by being a "jock" and following my love and passion for astronomy.

this black man is a pseudoscientist and has not contributed a single nontrivial thing to science in decades.
He only shills easily-manipulated people to line his own pockets
If you listen to any of his talks, he has like 3 hours of memorized material and just regurgitates it over and over in every lecture

Until you do I'm sorry sir but I cannot agree with you.

i have really struggled with whether and how to respond to this. The execution of this message was very nice and respectful, and I genuinely appreciate that. The premise, however, is problematic. Maybe not inherently, but within the context of the sexist society we live in. Men are allowed, and often feel compelled, to think out loud at women, to share unsolicited not necessarily informed thoughts at women. (And usually these men, unlike you, don’t even seem to recognize that their thoughts may not be useful.) Women on the other hand aren’t allowed to be as open. So, if you want to not just be respectful, but actually be anti-oppression, it is better (IMO) not to respond to a woman’s work with the types of thoughts that other men pawn off as insights, if you know what i mean. again, i appreciate your honesty, but i feel obligated to point these things out.
His popularity is a testament to the lefts soft bigotry of low expectations. liberals like him because he's a black nerdy sciency guy and they think it's ironic that he's not some thug degenerate nignog.

>make science cool again?
no, science has always been interesting and "cool"
He's a people person, so the spread of pop science has been easier. The spread of science and it being perceived as "cool" or profitable (musk) is how to get people into it.
Imagine the idiots you faggots worship trying to explain scientific concepts to people
