Take literally any scientific idea and you can easily imagine a conservative mocking it.

"They want to male a huge bomb, sit on it, and go to space!"

"They're looking at mold from their days old sandwiches and call it science!"

I tried googling whether penicillin was mocked "pencillin was mocked as stupid" just out of interest. The third result (or first after "people also ask") on Google, The Stupid Reason That Elon Musk Is Complaining About Scientists Spraying Bobcat Urine on Alcoholic Rats

Around and around and around

The Stupid Reason That Elon Musk Is Complaining About Scientists Spraying Bobcat Urine on Alcoholic Rats

Pretty sure they cribbed most of that article from This Hank Green video from the same day. It's a message worth spreading though, to be fair.

Sorry, meant no criticism of you at all. I just wanted to share Hank's video because he goes into a lot of depth and really helps in understanding.

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Nono, my bad. I like Hank's videos, hadn't seen that, if I had, I'd have linked it as well instead of some clickbaity journalism that's just riding off of Hank's work.
