How do we deal with people who refuse to accept overwhelming scientific evidence? Denying facts like the existence of man made climate change, gender fluidity, and biological differences between races is inherently problematic.

You aren't allowed to pick and choose scientific truths.

There are not facts and no truths outside personal utility and subjective desires. Our truths and facts are so because we need and want them as a society. But in a quasi-infinite universe, nothing is more certain than something else. All theories are equally unlikely to be really true, because x/∞ is still 0, no matter the x. So fundamentally, anyone should be free to believe what they please. One needs to accept science as a whole first, perhaps, in order to be compelled to accept some particular scientific fact.

the climate changes constantly fuckshit, thats what a reality is

IQ denialists are the worst.
>>
>>7912905
I know, I'm having an argument in another thread right now about IQ and its link to genetics. Even though it's been proven, they still deny it simply because "It doesn't make a difference to the world if we know that"
>>
>>7912905
IQ exists the same way any concept exists. what does not exist is the institutional application of, and poorly constructed metric within

Yesterday it snowed and today its sunny. Damn liberals wrong again!

begin to question their epistemic and ontological framework.

yea, cause thats how it works

My favourite is ignoring the true, experimentally verified ramifactions of QM.

>shut up and calculate
>>
>>7913511
experiments can verify that the earth is flat as well
>>
>>7913519

No they can't. Besides, the experiments prove what is explicitly predicted by the model.

>>7913587
if you dont understand why exactly 'flat earth' is such a prevalent philosophy, and a joke, then you have nothing to do with the scientific community
>>
>>7913609

The only joke is you.
