Neil Degrasse Tyson response - • My Response to Terrenc...
The "arguing with an older family member on a topic you research for a living" effect
Also, im an art historian who studies with not only other historians, but with artists themselves and let me tell you, there is nothing i know better than "dumb as a bag of bricks who happens to be amazing at the one thing they get paid to do". People who couldnt argue their way out of a paper bag but who think they have some massive insight into the field just because they can whip up a powerful personal work
@@gabisyderas1855
Okay but Leonardo Da Vinci almost definitely probably had ADHD right?
It's painful. I am getting Ph.D in cancer and immunology. Older family members think that being alive longer makes you more knowledgeable than someone younger who is an expert. Its painful.
@@berickslime6718 A lot of older folks are like that. I tend to try and watch what I say and ask questions when talking to somebody younger than me for that very reason.
Being old doesn't make you smarter or wiser, it just gives you more time to get entrenched in whatever stupid shit you were never corrected on when you were younger.
The fact Neil Degrasse Tyson hit him with the scientific you’re not like us was crazy lol
😂😂😂😂
Respectfully too. That was a friendly version of what he could have written
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Fundamentally different
Lmao excellent
My pseudo intellectual take is that conspiracies arise because the poor and the marginalized intuitively sense that society is hostile to their existence and that there is a level of legit conspiracies (lobbying for harmful policies, etc) against them. They just lack the class consciousness and education necessary to identify real issues.
That and they go after "fairy tales"(As Kimiko said in "The Boys") like blaming Jewish people, feminists, BLM, illuminati and satanism or Lucifer but not the actual powers that be that as you said that we have actual proof of the extremely sickening policies they have set out
And I believe it's because they hope one day to be these rich powers that be so they don't want to "rock the boat"
And once they become that rich person they can go in and change things for the better
They have Bruce Wayne syndrome going on and it's not realistic
That's always been odd how much marginalized groups are so focused on being rich , not all but it's way too many people
Agreed. I think it's easy to feel like it's obvious why the Reaganist economics experts are BS, but meteorology / climate experts are trustworthy. But really, they're all the "experts" in their field of study. They all define and uphold certain kinds of status quo. Why should marginalized people trust any such institution? And since reasonable people know that we don't know everything, that's no small amount of trust!
For every pseudo intellectual loudmouth, there's a much more reasonable, much quieter person who sees that (for example) the CIA committed many conspiracies, no doubt got away with many more, and are rightfully empathetic when a pseudo intellectual loudmouth is dragged online for believing conspiracies. For not trusting "the experts."
It's tough.
Sounds like a pretty solid pseudo intellectual take to me, id but that
I work with a woman who says some wildly stupid things like "the moon landing is fake". Having worked with and gotten to know her personally and professionally, she's clearly not a stupid person. This take is actually pretty spot on.
This is also why our politics are messed up.
Neil deGrasse Tyson: Provides Terrence Howard with the mildest possible criticism
Terrence Howard: He eviscerated my work!
What’s worse is Weinstein insulted NDT for defending himself 💀
Winestein also infantalised Howard
NDT even complimented the pictures as artistically beautiful. He just criticised the "science" in the paper.
The fact that NDT read an article or hypothesis by an unhinged actor was a complete waste of time
I'm not remotely shocked you were a public school teacher. Your whole mannerism SCREAM "I'm so tired of your ignant asses....but i love yall." Just like a teacher 😂
IIRC I believe FD's mentioned it a a couple times in previous videos too.
Hes fully indoctrinated. That explains why he thinks like a conservative while believing he’s not.
It’s important background.
Facts 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 that’s a perfect point lol
Dude didn't even get hit with a "citation needed" he just got "NO" lol
I think it's because citations for things people just make up, don't exist. Terrence just makes things up. Dude read how gravity was the warping of spacetime and started thinking Gravity didn't exist. Just like a flat earther, they think proof for gravity is actually what disproves it. It's mind-boggling. Sadly, Terrence is still probably smarter than my dumb butt. (sad Pikachu?)
Citation needed is my favourite
😂😂
I disagree... He needs to shxt the F up and just dribble, because they know they're going to apologise anyway. Stand on it or just don't say nothing
If Terrence says "Conjugation" one more time i swear to god
Dude has 0 idea what that word means
On god. Kept spamming straight line hatred
hes the one dude in the class that learned one word from tv and repeats it in class in the wrong context.
He got tired of saying "mane" so this is it's replacement.
Isn't that term in reference to the function/forms of verbs in grammar or some shit? Googling now...
Edit: yes, but no, but also yes...
“The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.”
― Charles Bukowski
It's not doubt, it's keeping one's mind open to all information
@@summergolden Wrong. Critical thinking (read: the scientific method) requires doubt by definition. You question anything novel unless and until you have, at a minimum, repeatability.
I really liked that quote in my late Teens, but i think its a way to easy Explanation.
Because there are "stupid" or well, people with rather low problem solving abilities and "IQ" that are full with doubts and heavilöy depressed. But yeah i know IQ isb heavily flawed in itself. Im no genius too and am completly crippled by depression and self-hate and doubts. Oh and physical disabilities ,too thanks God.
While i met many highly intelligent people who are confident in their abilities,sometimes even arrogant. I myself cant stand the Intro for example.
Hmm i really liked Bukowski back than,but i HAVE to be honest: He was aloof AF. And is a bit overrated.
Thats doesnt mean he is a bad author, god no. But he defeats his own quote in a weird way.
i realise the stupid ones, despite knowing little, they know something the intelligent people dont. how to take life not so seriously
The best lack all conviction, and the worst are filled with a passionate intensity.
-- W.B. Yeats
I'm a black aerospace engineer ... born and raised in the hood ... I cant tell you how many arguments Ive had with pseudo intellectuals in the barbershop! 😂😂😂😂. I had a guy tell me that concussions are caused by steroids and not the repeated banging of ones head into another person or a wall. 😂
Omfg the barbershop is the worst. I just let my barber go cuz I couldn’t even begin to correct him. Just fallacy after fallacy.
Last year when I moved back to my home state - I decided to go by the old barbershop I hadn't been to since I was a teenager - I don't know how I ever sat there for an hour without laughing hysterically before! It was one of the goofiest things ever and I couldn't even believe that I used to think this shit was normal. Still love that place though.
As a former Network Engineer, who use to work in cellular. Having to explain the 5G upgrade during the pandemic to black folks almost took me out of here.
LMAO Sounds like they've suffered a few concussions themselves.
While I lack the education and expertise you have, I hear a lot in the barbershop.
As an old white guy raised in the South... the number of times I've listened to people who know far less than my limited knowledge on a subject that speak with absolute confidence cannot be counted.
I think it's just an older man thing, when you learn that you can pass off your age as "experience" and "wisdom", when you're just the dumbass kid you used to be with a bad back and wonky knees.
Hear hear, peer
As a young white enby in the north, I see that too, but mostly from able-bodied straight white people who are old af specifically. Able-bodied straight white guys generally don't have any reason to question the caucacious conflation of age and intelligence (Esp. wisdom), because they already get implicitly (And sometimes explicitly) told on a regular basis they're smarter than much smarter minorities (Ethno-Dunning-Kruger) so if they never get called out on it in any meaningful way, they subconsciously internalize it. They then apply that to themself as they get older, giving them an out for questioning their own long-standing assumptions about the world and all who inhabit it, because everyone doing that needs to respect their elders.
I call it Season One Pakku Syndrome (SOPS), and the best known treatments for it are (From someone else's comment on the Abby Thorne Phantasm video) A: Giving them a different way to feel about being taught that, B: Help them work through the feelings that come from being taught that, and (From the namesake) C: Getting visibly trounced by someone much younger and less institutionally privileged than they are, and having to confront their own shortcomings.
I’m not white and I’ve seen it happen too. Everything isn’t about race. This is more of a human evolutionary behavior.
That was a bit specific 😂
Lol so true. This is like a special variety of the Dunning Kruger effect
As someone else who's ABD (hopefully not for much longer!), the craziest thing about pseudo intellectuals (and those who follow them) is how resistant they are to critique. Terrance was complaining about NDT marking his paper up in red ink. MANNNNNN that's LIGHT work. People will tear your entire theory apart at a conference, journals will send back your paper with a litany of revisions, your advisor*will send you back your draft with an equal length number of comments, etc. Because that's the true academic process at work: critique, revision, synthesis, etc. It's all done in service of weeding out the nonsense and developing/refining the good shit (ideally of course. plenty of BS gets through, still but I digress).
Looking for this comment, and you said it better than I could have. Cheers!
It's a huge privilege and a gift for NDT to offer his critique at all
If a theory (or theorist) crumples under critique it was hollow to begin with.
I had to Google ABD and the were a confusing number of options that could have applied, but given the context of your comment I’m guessing it refers to ‘all but dissertation’?
Not sure that term is used in Aus
@@betteramulet50yes, it means "all but dissertation". it's explained at the start of the video
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.

I think it is all over western world. In my country I come across same people.
We been living in the movie Idiocracy for years now.
@@ManWhoKnewTooLittle It's all over the Eastern world too
@@archiemisc Omnipresent, no doubt
Nah believe me, it's everywhere. Americans are just the loudest one and the USA has the spotlight.
I like Terry's math. If 1 x 1 = 2 then he's actually been in 2 Ironman movies and not just one before he was fired for being weird.
Yeah, that's where I heard first about his problems. I didn't know it was this bad though...
I love it!😂
THIS! I was gonna say is THAT why he was recast in Iron Man 2😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
But then take my 75% if we were to go 1 on 1, and you add the 66 and 2/3 percents. I GOT A HUNDRED AND FORTY ONE AND 2/3s CHANCE OF WINNING AT SACRIFICE
Neil's response taught me one important thing: peer reviews matter
There is a whole other issue with peer review. The journals make the money, the peer reviewers are volunteers, and there is huge bias towards big names and certain topics.
@@izzyNFT69everything in this world is full of holes. *Especially* the man made things 😅 but that's what we've got to work with
I would invite you to watch Dr K and Dr Mike's debate.
😂😂😂Neil's a hater! & Even if Terrance isn't right in his proposal the best scientist in the world couldn't write a mathematical/academic equation to would explain time travel or better yet.(more pratical) write an equation that could explain how the phenomenon of psychic transmissions work FOR THIS IS REAL!!! & Titles aside, who's to say Terrance's application to his presentation doesn't hold substantial weight...even Einstein was not 100% with his Theory but yall wanna dog Mr. Howard out. Smh
Lmmfao Neil bought n paid for!
*They wanna do the talking and sound smart,*
*but they won't do the reading to be smart.*
Says me to my teens on a daily.
And they get butthurt when you point out the flaws in their argument.
I have a cousin like this. He said women float better because they “don’t work” 🤦🏾
@@GreenNectarines😂😂😂
He would never do the reading because he would be up against really smart people. He feels safe among people he deems dumber than him. He needs to go somewhere and sit down and shut up
My 11 year old son is autistic and his special interest is math/numbers. When I told him about this, he was legitimately so beyond confused and annoyed. He uses him as a punchline now. He also forgot his name and called him “Errant Toward” and so that’s what I will forever refer to him as from now on.
"Errant Toward" is such an amazing display of bars, I think it changed my life.
Shout out your son and u as a mom. Errant Toward💜🤣
“I’ve been able to rebuild Saturn, without gravity” has got to be one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. What does that even mean?!
Dude also said elements produce a tone. Like Carbon produces the "key of E." I studied music in college Key of E is a series of notes, not a single "tone." If you played all the notes at once it would sound like a car accident.
He means he saw an animation where a planet looking like Saturn formed even though the animation does not simulate gravity. Yeah, it’s that dumb. A computer animation proved to him planets can form without gravity. It’s like saying Mickey Mouse proves mice can talk.
@@magicmulder bruh 🤣💀
I think he means a styrofoam ball and some paint from Michael’s. That’s where my math leads me…
…but what is math?
@@feliciascorner9795 it really irks me when people who know nothing about music start misusing terms like that. It's not even that hard to learn the differences between pitch, tone, key; he can't even do that!
"Smart dumb" is a great way to say it. I've met so many of this kind of person, and they're all soooo convinced that they're "enlightened," yet if you ever really listen to what they have to sat, it's nonsense. But they use language that can fool people.
I had this phase when I was like 5 or something. I had the smartest theory about how Mickey Mouse and Tom & Jerry were in the same universe…
There was this dude in high school which was very similar to me, but fits what u point out. He would read books that were famous for being “smart ppl books” and would be very condescending. Never found him interesting or original as he just talked like an r/atheism mod and some right wing libertarian that read Hoppe and thought they could solve the problem of representative governments.
reminds me of the saying about light being faster than sound so some people appear bright until they speak
as an ex victim of the dunning krugar effect, i agree.
It's known as "word salad." Common among narcissistic types.
The fact that Neil went though the process of giving him a peer review is a big deal for any other person in physics.
He read his hypothesis and dismissed his whole theory. He didn’t really go through anything.
@@MrJuot234what exactly do you think peer reviewing is, if not going through a thesis and using known and proven information to asses and either prove or disprove said thesis?
@@MrJuot234 Have you seen NDT's recent video on this? He explains his peer review and goes through some of the responses he made on Howard's paper.
@@MrJuot234no he went through and actually made comments on every page.
@@trevorandrew8726 From what I saw, he only looked at his initial premise and basically shut it down. He didn’t observe his work completely. It’s a such thing as humanity and having basic conversation. You see how Joe Rogan sat and talked to him. It could have been a better exchange.

I love whenever fact-checking is viewed as an attack. It genuinely isn't. Anyone who wants to be informed will thank you for a fact check. But egocentric people just don't like to be wrong. It's an exercise in branding. I'm selling myself, so I can't be questioned. Every intrusive thought that comes out of my mouth must be correct because I believe it.
Debate bros in a nutshell
A word.
Thing is, it does feel bad. Being emotionally honest is important, it's embarrassing to be wrong, especially if you're being wrong very loudly to a large group of people. But how you deal with that embarrassment will define you as a person. You can either feel it, go home, have a lie down and work through that emotion, or deny deny deny until it's other people who are wrong.
You have to learn to take it in stride. For me the phrase "egg on my face" has helped a lot, because I can say, well that's embarrassing, got caught with egg on my face, well, now I know. If you don't find a way to cope with being wrong, you end up like Howard, trying to convince a room full of science students that 1x1=2.
A good way to identify a narcissist is to ask them to tell you about a time they were wrong.
He wants to be seen as an academic so badly but when Neil tries treating him like one with a peer review he gets all sensitive. This is what “I did my own research” looks like when one lacks the tools to know what sources aren’t legit science.
It's also this type of person has this weird thing where "I did my research" usually means they looked something up once or twice and then stopped. Real scientists never stop learning. They don't just state they've discovered something brilliant and then that's it. They also don't cry that they've been "attacked" when a peer says their stuff is incorrect or flawed.
Well said
Neil was low key hilariously slamming Terrance's "paper". Neil basically summed it up with: "This is factually incorrect, but you draw pretty pictures!"
@@SenorCircuit ehhhh
EHHHHHHHHHH
let's not overstate how smart and humble scientists are. scientists absolutely can be overly sensitive to critique - theres been some dirty shit between academics who otherwise produce good research based entirely on "critiqued my work in a way i think is stupid". and scientists absolutely can get caught in research silos where they understand a single topic *extremely* well, one based largely on their own work, and then it turns out that topic's core principles arent even correct - and then they double down. this has happened in physics a couple times, and its happened regularly in the history of biology when research starts to intersect with partially-or-wholly-sociological ideas like race, ethnicity, sex, and gender.
even neil degrasse tyson has had some insane hot takes about topics he's just not educated on and gets defensive when called out. in general he often views his education as meaning he's a "smart person" and not just "a smart science communicator in the niches he's most educated in". to the level of terrance howard? oh god no, but the point is more that people are complicated and can manifest pseudo-intellectual tendencies in some fields while maintaining rigor and curiosity in others. very, very few people (if any) are really "intellectuals" in a holistic sense, but theres definitely a spectrum of how often a given person lets critique and curiosity win vs ego and defensiveness in various contexts.
science on the whole is more reliable as a process, but its still a communal process with the same dynamics and problems that can manifest in any other community, filled with people who are still people with all their hubris and flaws and disagreements. that it mostly produces good and useful results despite that is a testament to its resilience as a process (even when it has significant blindspots), but scientists are not particularly special. especially not when we exist in an academic system that selects for workaholics that enjoy playing office politics and taking the maximum amount of credit they can convince people to give them for any work they contribute to, that also have the money and personal/professional connections to attend top universities (which isnt to say most, say, MIT graduates arent smart, but that is absolutely a large part of the process - and the vast, vast majority of career academics come from top universities).
That’s not what happened. Neil ignored him asking to have a convo with him on his show then dropped his video
Someone once said “The greatest enemy of mankind is ignorance.” What terrifies me is the vast number of followers people like a Joe Rogan have amassed within a short period of time and the platforms that allow them to continue to amplify their beliefs.
That worries me too. Every time my brother defends that dude to me, part of my spirit dies.
I don't think Joe's evil or bad, just stupid, and thinks giving everyone a platform is what's fair without thinking if it's always responsible
Doesn’t it just suck when freedom of speech applies to people you don’t agree with? Maybe if we amended the amendment so we can censor those we don’t agree with, what could possibly go wrong?
Yeah, I’m not gonna say Joe Rogan is bad. He gives a platform to some very unorthodox thinkers. This can be good, bad or neither.
@@JamesGriffinSpiteHouse I'm going to say he is bad for all the reasons I mentioned above.

Whenever people say that I’m smart. I tell them “I’m not smart. I’m just good at retaining information”.
Same. I remember a lot of different things, but I don't consider that smart. If I was smart, I'd be able to use what I memorize in some way.
In general not specifically to you, I think most of the information we memorize isn't useful we just memorize it to pass to the next level unless you're in a lab cuz that's where you actually have to use the information you memorized but this is just my opinion
When people used to say how I got good grades I would tell them the same thing lol

I have an MA in Math Education (shoutout to FD and other fellow teachers. Hang in there, everyone), and listening to Terrence talk about 1x1 gives me a feeling that I can only describe as stroke-like symptoms

(Not saying I am your equal, just that I’m kinda glad for the validation of what was in truth, little more than my intuition lol)
Wait a minute if 1×1 doesn't equal 2, why does 2×2 equal 4?
@@M.H.Paperstacks Because multiplication is defined as repeated addition. 2x2 = 2 + 2. 2x3 = 2+2+2. 1x a number is just that number. So 1x1 = 1 and 1x2 = 2
@@M.H.Paperstackshas your school ever taught you the groups way of multiplying? four times four for example is four groups of four. one times one is one group of one. two groups of two would be four. hope this helps
@yoursalwaysliyah yes I was taught that way but I don't think people are understanding what Terrence is saying. If you take 1 penny and times it by one penny how many pennies are in front of you 2 not one, if you take 2 pennies and times it by 2 pennies how many are in front of you 4 not 2,so he is saying in this case number 1times itself cannot equal its initial self it equals more, addition is relative to multiplication as subtraction is relative to division
"They don't even have the shame to feel insecure about how wrong they are about something" bro deep facts
A line I really like from NDT's response was "if you're the smartest guy in the room, change rooms"
You should always be trying to challenge yourself
This. I started to understand for myself after a while that I WANT to be wrong and I want to find more informed peers, because that lends itself to an opportunity to enhance that knowledge and to deepen that pool.
It’s also humbling in a way that is the absolute best.

Where are your 97 patents? Why do some people love to dismiss things or knowledge they don't understand as CRAZY. Can you disprove without a doubt what Terrence was saying? If not then you shouldn't be MOCKING.
Throughout history numerous scientists were dismissed as CRAZY by their small minded contemporaries because the knowledge or discoveries those scientists shared were not understood by the MOCKERS of those times. Ignaz Semmelweis discovered in 1847 that hand-wash with a solution of chlorinated lime reduced the incidence of fatal childbed fever tenfold in maternity institutions. However, the reaction of his contemporaries was not positive; Semmelweis’s critics claimed his findings lacked scientific reasoning. History has proven that he was right about the dangers germs pose but he was dismissed as a CRAZY person at that time by those who didn’t have the mental capacity to understand the importance of cleanliness. If you are too ahead of the curve those with small minds often tend to dismiss you as CRAZY. Those who are MOCKING Terrence are showing themselves to be small minded individuals. Try to understand what Terrence is saying. Prove him wrong if you think what he is saying is not true. Don't be a small minded MOCKER.

It's the worst because the pseudo-intellectuals will fully take advantage of your healthy sense of self doubt to make you waver and think "...Well, hell, I could be wrong, maybe I should double check". My dad is the worst with this. He once ridiculed me for a straight hour for telling him the US spent the latter half of the 20th century orchestrating foreign coups because he, personally, had never read that. Then I watched him try to subtly google it on his phone under the table, read the results, find out he was wrong, scowl, close his phone and PROCEED TO DOUBLE DOWN HARDER. It almost gaslights you.
I’m glad you had the conversation with your dad. I hope he comes around. It’s difficult when you’ve been raised in this “America is the pillar of truth and justice in the world” bs, and then you learn the truth when you’re older. But many of us did and we are grateful now for the people who kept speaking the truth.

Imagine not being able to successfully argue somethin thats supposed to be right.
I’m not even saying he’s right but refusing to engage in his pushing back of the status quo just makes everyone look close minded just saying “this is obviously wrong I’m not even gonna try to explain why it is” just martyrs and validates the conspiracists initial claim.
it'll be like arguing astrophysics with a wino
I mean engaging with an argument so fundamentally bad faith is far from the solution. basic arithmetic is not something that can be debated, it has independently emerged across a multitude of historical sources, and to respond with anything other than "no" is to acknowledge the false claim that there is a status quo to be argued about for something so fundamentally ingrained in humanity as simple math.
engaging with bad faith arguments isn't open minded, its just foolish
@@kendrojr someone in that position has done a lot of work that has nothing to do with reasoning. You won't reason them out of it. If you wanna fill the air between you and them, fine, but don't pretend you're "arguing with somebody." They ain't hearing you. Explaining why 1x1 isn't 1 isn't useful to them.

Neil DeGrasse Tyson simply did what scientists do. We give feedback. I got comments about my research all the time. As I got confident in my work I started taking those comments and strengthening my work.
The inability to accept criticism/critique of one’s ideas is usually a dead giveaway that a person has not spent any meaningful time in academia.
Tyson even did it respectfully and gently. He's like bro I love you but you wrong.
It's pretty flattering that Tyson responded at all.
Or maybe shows that he is susceptible as the rest of us.
And actually read the stuff because it was sent by a name he had heard of.
deep, some people think intelligence is about performance rather than the persuit for knowledge.
This Terrence Howard episode showed me just how dangerous these contact platforms are. I've seen upwards of 20 videos (on TH-cam alone) that either praise or support his weird positions. I'm no scientist, but I know BS when I hear it. And Howard was talking a whole lot of BS on JRE. But between FB, TikTok and TH-cam, all sorts of commentators popped up to cosign his rhetoric and add to the misinformation. On the other hand, I've seen only 3 TH-cam videos pushing back against what he said, and that includes this one and the one by Neil deGrasse Tyson.
And it's not just the videos, but the comment threads beneath them! Thousands of regular John and Jane Doe's support his BS too! it's a sad state of affairs.
if you are interested, Kyle Hill also does a good video on the subject.
It’s part and parcel of the fascist moment we’re in.
I think part of the issue with pushing back on a lot of these folks is that they’ve amassed such a large audience that takes what they say as gospel. There is little in the way of pushback because people would get swamped with replies regurgitating the same information or rude and nasty comments that don’t address the issue. Unless someone has a decent sized platform or is able to handle the BS that comes from breaking down the flawed arguments of a revered public figure it’s difficult to tackle the BS espoused by professional pseudo intellectuals.
Misinformation isn't dangerous. What's dangerous is people claiming something is misinformation without actually providing a clear rebuttal against said argument....

As an academe myself, my favorite academic quote goes, "The definition of someone with a bachelor's degree, is someone who thinks they know everything; the definition of someone with a master's degree, is someone who knows they don't know anything; and finally, the definition of someone with a doctorate, is someone who knows NOBODY knows anything." Unfortunately, some will not understand the full context of that quote though...
This is very DEEP....

When politely pressed on this, they get butthurt and chalk it up to me "not being familiar with the material" (and sometimes they're right). However, if your material can't handle a little push back from a layman, then how will it withstand scrutiny from your peers?

He wasn’t actually invited by the University, he was invited by the Oxford Union Society which is a private/independent debating club at the university.

I was this guy in high school. Then I went to University and went "oh shit I'm dumb" and been working on becoming not dumb ever since.
I was never a genius, I was just a strong communicator and decent improviser.
I think it's expected and forgiven when you're a literal child, it's when you're a grown adult and you're still doing... that when people are gonna judge you for it more harshly.
Wrong your better than this guy because you can recognize your shortcomings
Saaaaaaammmeee😭😭🤣🤣 especially with the good improvising part
Well, since our society believes that good verbal communication skills = high levels of intelligence, you can definitely be forgiven. I have to be careful myself. I can get caught up in other people’s admiration because I can “speak well,” even when I probably don’t know what the heck I’m talking about. University was definitely helpful in opening my eyes to that.
@@fluidthought42 A university student and 20 year old isn't a child. I'm not even sure high schoolers are children either.
Puttin Jordan Peterson and Aaron Rodgers in the background at the beginning brought a little joy to my day
I had a bad habit of talking on a topic I was familiar with and not being able to register when I ran out of stuff "knew" and when I started making educated assumptions. I never was an outright liar, but sometimes conversations veer into directions I wasn't informed on, and I still would speak on it as I was. Never out of malice, I just wasn't good at stopping myself in the moment when I felt like I knew a topic well enough. So I started a small mantra that I usually just say in my head and occasionally out loud:
"I don't know anything, but here's what I do know:"
I'd say that to myself before speaking, it helped me in the moment remind myself how little I (as an individual) could know on any topic, but respected how much I would research before speaking. It was a little gut check to make sure I didn't mix the things I knew and had researched and fact checked with the natural assumptions, patterns, and predictions we all make.
Good advice. I need to start doing this as well.
Lmao I have something similar, I call it "adverbial speech". Whenever I talk about something I'm not 100% sure about, I'm sprinkling some adverbs in my phrases like "maybe", "probably", "most frequently" etc
That’s a good one, cheers for passing it on 👍🏼
One thing I’ve noticed about popular media is that we love characters like Tony Stark or Sherlock Holmes or Batman because of the way they treat genius. In movies genius just means genius. Tony Stark is an engineering genius, that’s his whole thing but that also means that he is a genius in every field of science, everything technical, if it is even remotely tangential to math he is the best in the world at it because he’s a genius. In reality being a great engineer doesn’t make you the authority on bioscience but we want to believe that someone smart in one thing makes them smart in all things. It’s why we elevated Elon Musk so much before he kept talking
The Sherlock Holmes thing is actually quite recent. The novels painted him far more evenly, he was very skilled at pretty much one thing; Deductive reasoning. And he wasn’t infallible, people regularly got one up on him, he'd have cases where he was always one step behind.
But Holmes has been flanderized to the point of absurdity. The BBC show has him go to a mind palace where he throws around infographics instead of looking at information and making deductions from what is and what can and cannot be. At this point, Knives Out and Glass Onion are better Sherlock adaptations than some of the most recent Sherlock adaptations.
It's bad writers who see genius as basically magic.
It's also interesting to me that the characters you named are all a**holes. People swallow their rude and downright cruel behavior at times simply because they are "geniuses" as if the world needs them to survive. Tony's the best about playing with others but the other two were really terrible about this with mixed results.
When dumb writers try to write smart people we end up with fast-talking jerks who know everything all the time
@@dahliaherrod4301 we like and accept that trope so much that when media actively indicts a character for fitting into that trope, huge groups of the fanbase refuse to see it and continue to idolize the smart asshole (ie Rick and Morty). And in real life how many people say things like “yeah he’s harassing his wife, yeah he’s a bigot, yeah he’s a piece of shit but Kanye is a genius” because I’ve heard that a lot
"We need to stop referring to these types of folks as insert psychological disorder here ... These are just assholes." Had me literally pointing my finger at the screen going "Yes! Yes! Yes!"
It becomes real easy to dismiss mental illness then though and we already don't take it seriously.
Like, I never really like Kanye's music so don't think I'm a stan, I'm even a fan but he's just been in unchecked mani for liken 8 years now. He needs to be in a Britney conservatorship but people wanna meme or take him face value like he's not literally crazy instead.

As a scientist myself, I found unfortunate that Howard did not know about peer review. As a white woman, I can honestly say that pseudo-intellectualism is not restricted by race. I have worked with physicians for much of my career and can tell you that many of them think they know it all. My area of expertise is Immunology and I can recall so many times that doctors called me to challenge my work, usually because they were not up on the recent research. Of course, in my early career, most doctors were men and how dare a woman think she might know more than them! Your comments are 😊on the money and I appreciated your insight. You have a new subscriber…
Thank you for this vid, as a scientist it burns my soul to see the same people who said "we won't use this stuff (math and science) in the real world" to completely accept Terreology (or whatever it's called) SIMPLY because people are saying how wrong it is and that he can fit nonsense words in sentences. While there are people pouring their lives out to make new discoveries that get no air time
This is the hardest part for me to take as well. I’m not a scientist (yet) and I’ve learned a lot about the historical and ongoing issues with academia, but that doesn’t change the fact there are literally hundreds of thousands of thoughtful, passionate people who dedicate decades if not their entire lives to understand just one thing a little bit better than anyone has…and people just spit in their face, call them nerds, and confidently assert some absolute nonsense they just made up to protect their own fragile egos.

Nationally, I think the biggest instance we make in allowing people who have knowledge in one area move to another is business. US Capitalism deifies someone who can make money and if you made money, then you must have some vast knowledge of how the world works because we'll let you do or say anything.

@@Chuck_EL Maybe it is because of humans' love for myths and stories. Some people just want it to be true. Especially the myth of the lone genius, inventor, hero, etc.
Open question. Did you believe that the covid vaccine would 100% stop the spread of covid when we first told by medical professionals, politicians and mainstream media?
This reminds me of the phrase "expertise creep." I use it all the time. A person is an expert in X, so they act like they are an expert in Y. It drives me right up a wall every time.
Funnily enough, Neil deGrasse Tyson is actually a pretty bad offender. He's constantly speaking confidently and wrongly about things like philosophy, biology, and even fields of physics he didn't study.
@@Massangler1856yes he is😂 but when he talks about his own field he's unmatched.
Howard has no credentials and is just lost in his arrogance
@@Massangler1856if you were given the task of creating a list of things Neil was wrong about, I’m sure you probably couldn’t come up with more than a small number of insignificant details. For example, you mentioned philosophy, despite the fact it’s almost entirely subjective. Do you not understand the basic premise of philosophy?
@@Massangler1856usually that's when someone asks an unrelated question. He will always try to give them an answer.
@jenster29 definitely. Just interesting how it isn't limited to people who are dumb across the board. I think there's even a name for it in hyper-educated people called Nobel Syndrome I believe where guys like James Watson who helped to discover the structure of DNA can simultaneously believe batshit insane things about race.
Very excited for the Dr Signifier arc. Capitalism has done an unfortunately great job in convincing a wide margin of people that the problems lie elsewhere, rather than the system itself being the issue. Things like Kyrie’s anti vax nonsense for example was legitimately harmful. On a general scale, we have to understand that being an entertainer in one field doesn’t equate to intimate knowledge of others, as you said. We’re all susceptible to being wrong, and that’s perfectly fine. There’s no greater joy in life than learning and growing as a person.
This is one of the best takes on why people get sucked into BS I’ve ever seen. Subscribed. Thank you.
I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time. The Always Sunny title card is so spot on hilarious.
I'm an ABD student who works on film studies. I was giving a presentation on the Denis Villeneuve film Prisoners, in which Terrance Howard plays a minor role, at a conference. I was responding to a question and talking about Terrance Howard's character, and I had to fight every urge to bring up Terriology becuase it was something I had known about.
My brotha heard about irrational numbers and said "hold my beer."
😂😂😂😂
