    most cookers don’t understand what the scientific method is. my brother thinks it’s like some list of formulas scientists use to see if something is true or not, not the entire actual process around theory/observation/evidence/peer review. they thibk “science” indoctrinates people to think a certain way and that scientists somehow are told to ignore everything not in a textbook. no explaining how wrong this is in over 3 years has helped

      Damn, fingers in the ears, huh? Good on you for trying it must be exhausting. Some people refuse to consider that they could have been wrong about something fundamental, which is more ironic because the scientific method is all about considering if you might be wrong.
