Stephen Hawking on Trump

>>47060

I am waiting for 4chan to tell me what to think about this.

I really don't understand the big deal about Stephen Hawking saying he doesn't understand why Trump is popular. He's a scientist, not a political annalist. His job has nothing to do with studying politics.

literally Hawking

At least he's not as bad as Nye or Tyson, and he's actually made some contributions to his field

I don't get it
Hawking basically said that he is like any other politican
Why is that bad?

Google "Politician jokes."

It's a whole genre.

Stephen Hawking is a 72 year old disabled scientist, he has not delved into the murky underworld of extremists of both the left and the right, thus has little knowledge about Trump supporters and what motivates them. Also beeing a britbong he is probably unaware of race hysteria in America.

Affirmative action in NASA was probably an attempt to gain political support and receive funding, an effect of low funding not a cause.

4chan tries to be contrarian but is mostly full of memes, though a few users contribute novel opinions it is up to you to decide if they are worth anything.
