That is absolutely NOT how the scientific method works. Science evolves as the knowledge base advances, some theories advance with a preponderance of evidence and some are cast aside as better data comes to light.
The fact that you think science is “written in stone” is exactly what I mean when I say you are incapable of critical thinking. If Einstein thought science was set do you think he’d ever have amended Newton’s laws that had held up for centuries? You don’t know what science is, you have a middle school education

The HIVE MIND MUST RULE. Let's call it a "consensus". LOCKSTEP. "We're all in this together." "We can't all be wrong." Disagree with the HIVE MIND and you will pay dearly. We will freeze your bank account, freeze your insurance, disallow you from buying groceries, ban you from restaurants and bars, take away your children, deny you lifesaving care, trample you with horses, and declare you an Enemy Combatant. SCIENCE IS A CONSENSUS and must be obeyed, at ALL costs..

Well, it is now. The "experts" cannot be questioned. Their "findings" are set in stone. Their models flawless. And if you disagree, you will go to jail. Bend a knee to the exacting standards of "science", for "science" is always right.
Oh I see now you were doing a thing. Well you can’t throw the baby out with the bath water. Science can be an imperfect and controversial process and it’s all subject to the fallibility of man at the end of the day.
But it’s also responsible for all the modern creature comforts you enjoy like schizoposting on a dead website 14 hours a day about shit you know nothing about.
You can’t just take for granted all the shit science came up with that’s beneficial to you but then if something disagrees with your predetermined worldview, NOW science is a problem. It doesn’t work that way

It’s not an either/or proposition. You can look at available data critically and come to some kind of conclusion somewhere in the middle without swallowing the propaganda wholesale. But you have a condition of black and white thinking that doesn’t permit this kind of nuance

The way it is right now, if you don't 100% agree with the current scientific consensus, you are a conspiracy theorist and a nut who needs to be shamed and harmed. Kind of ironic, since science itself is actually a theory. That's what happens when you mix politics with science.

Kind of sounds like you're crying about nothing then.

I actually agree with you, science is weaponized for political purposes and most people are too dumb to suss out what’s really going on because the standard of scientific literacy is abysmal.
You’re among the group that’s too stupid to know any better except you just go with whatever the other side says. You are exactly what you claim to be against

That the State can't manage their own power grid is not a fault of the weather, it's a fault of gross incompetency.

As they drive up the cost of food, transport and supplies by pushing fake pandemics and attacking supply centers, shipping ports, shippers and shipping routes.
