What did he do this time :D


the tl;dr is that he responded to dobro's post about the scientific method with:

1) there are biases in every scientific study, and as a doctor and a surgeon, he is able to parse out the biases.
2) he, as vetted through his medical education system, can pick apart the scientific method so as to make "both long-term, thoughfully (sic) calculated decisions and split second, on the spot decisions in the surgery room to save people's lives."
3) he is "smarter than the scientific method, and smarter than the self-righteous nerdy 'scientists' that perform those studies" because as a medically trained professional, he must know when to trust "the past" and when to evolve his decision-making to new diagnostics, procedures, and materials.
4) those darn scientists' biggest down fall is their "lack of self awareness in their sometimes entirely biased bull crap"

I think it is pretty troubling that it took an extremely polarizing president to get some of these crimes to get prosecuted.

This might be a first...being a contributor, of sorts, maybe a provocateur would be more accurate,
of something which led to a HOF post. I guess this is what happens when I stop in for a moment
(Hi Ruz, MS, DCK, and others)
without signing in and putting my ignores into effect. I mean why would anyone with respect for
the limited all too brief time we have on earth waste time reading /anything/ from SD20.

Robust critical thinking? Significant insight? Move along. Nothing to see here.
A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression

Those who are convinced of absurdities, can be convinced to commit atrocities

balderson wins close call. about 1700 votes. .9% Green party took about1600 votes.

was down almost 30 points last week!!!!! before Trump rally!!! Trumpsters save the day!!!! Dems were hoping to win this district as part of their red wave. Sad. dont cry too much because dem might have won if green party candidate (democratic socialist) never entered race. :o dems tent too big. this green party democratic socialism is splitting your party. you guys are screwed in mid terms. get rid of the socialist and you have a chance...HRC might even be president if it wasn't for Jill Stein. :o Big mistake. Bernie/ocasio is screwing dems over.

Good.


Not a fan of hers.


And I'll admit its primarily due to my dislike of Bernie.
