Dr. Fauci: Americans “Don’t Believe Science And They Don’t Believe Authority”
Summit News ^ | 06/19/2020 | Steve Watson

Posted on 06/19/2020 8:19:09 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the polarising director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, slammed everyday Americans for refusing to go along with ‘authority’ on medical matters, and accused people of ‘amazing denial’ when it comes to ‘truth’.

Speaking on a podcast called Learning Curve, produced by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Fauci charged that “unfortunately, there is a combination of an anti-science bias that people are — for reasons that sometimes are, you know, inconceivable and not understandable — they just don’t believe science and they don’t believe authority.”

“So when they see someone up in the White House, which has an air of authority to it, who’s talking about science, that there are some people who just don’t believe that — and that’s unfortunate because, you know, science is truth,” Fauci asserted.

“It’s amazing sometimes the denial there is, it’s the same thing that gets people who are anti-vaxxers, who don’t want people to get vaccinated, even though the data clearly indicate the safety of vaccines,” Fauci proclaimed, adding “That’s really a problem.”

Perhaps the real reason Americans don’t trust Fauci is that he’s consistently flip flopped and contradicted himself on ‘the truth’ for months.

The man also exudes authoritarianism, and clearly has a problem with anyone who questions his superiority.

Fauci also has a long history of being the front man for a network of powerful Big Pharma and Big Medicine interests, pushing vaccines and medicines in a clear conflict of interest.

Following Fauci's blame-scaping the anti-science bias of (implicitly ignorant) Americans, Thiel Capital MD Eric Weinstein unleashed a barrage of uncomfortable truths on Twitter

How dare this man.

Do you want to know why they are learning to hate scientists for real Dr Fauci?

Because your group lies about science & your ilk drove the truth telling scientists out of their rightful places inside the instutions calling bullshit on your lying about masks. pic.twitter.com/VJLTGT0GOe — Eric Weinstein (@EricRWeinstein) June 18, 2020

Scientists like me who don’t go along with cowards & crowds cannot disrupt your group’s lies because we are outside. Imagine if I was tweeting from the National Science Foundation or MIT. It would be a national news story about how your cabal lies and degrades faith in science: https://t.co/leYsCerG3o — Eric Weinstein (@EricRWeinstein) June 18, 2020

Weinstein went on:

"But you prattle on. We will one day find out later that you suspected all along that the Wuhan BS-L 4 virology lab might well be involved, but that you didn’t say so for this or that political reason.

Because you aren’t a scientist. You play one. You are an MD turned actor.

ven when I agree with the conclusions of your instutional pseudo science cabal, you cheat to get to our shared conclusions on vaccines, viruses, climate, etc.

So you want people to believe in science again? Ok. Call-yourself-out. Admit that your crowd **lied** about our masks.

And not to put too fine a point on it: your group is sitting in chairs reserved for people who don’t do what your cabal just did.

You just don’t have what it takes sir. I’m sorry. But science isn’t acting. It’s not a beauty pagent. It’s not politics.

Science requires courage."

You mean like the science of biology of males and females? Or the science of anatomy that says an unborn child is a human being?

Oh right. Those don't count.

The more I hear Fauci on TV, the more he comes across as a crotchety old man...the type I tend to disregard.

Yes. That was the view of the Soviets and all who worship their model...outlined eloquently by Whittaker Chambers in his seminal book Witness:


“It [Communism] is not new. It is, in fact, man's second oldest faith.

Its promise was whispered in the first days of the Creation under the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil: "Ye shall be as gods."

It is the great alternative faith of mankind. Like all great faiths, its force derives from a simple vision. Other ages have had great visions. They have always been different versions of the same vision: the vision of God and man's relationship to God.

The Communist vision is the vision of Man without God.

It is the vision of man's mind displacing God as the creative intelligence of the world

It is the vision of man's liberated mind, by the sole force of its rational intelligence, redirecting man's destiny and reorganizing man's life and the world.

It is the vision of man, once more the central figure of the Creation, not because God made man in his image, but because man's mind makes him the most intelligent of the animals.

Copernicus and his successors displaced man as the central fact of the universe by proving that the earth was not the central star of the universe.

Communism restores man to his sovereignty by the simple method of denying God.”

And so it is with the Left.

I posted on another thread the observations that I have made on the results of abandoning the battlefield of thought and education to the Left...

Over the last two weekends, I have seen the full evidence of it in various forms.

Twice, I have had to drive a gauntlet of what seems to be high school age girls, standing in town commons holding signs about white racism and Black Lives Matter for viewing by drivers of passing cars.

Then, as I was driving through a five way intersection, there was a young woman in the middle of the intersection drawing a Black Lives Matter message in chalk in the middle, impeding traffic.

I rode my bike on a rail trail last week, and saw a young woman with colored chalk, taking up the trail, engrossed in her chalk portrait of George Floyd and a Black Lives Matter message. I had to maneuver around her.

Last night, as I drove home, I saw a cardboard sign in front of a house, hand drawn in multiple marker colors saying "Black Lives Matter" with a heart symbol.

A heart symbol.

This was the kind of sign you would see from a 7th grade girl, handwriting, multiple colors, the heart symbol.

The point is, in all of this, the unifying thing seemed to me to be they were all female. I don't recall seeing any young males, though I am sure they were there somewhere in those groups holding signs.

I have to conclude that the young females were far more susceptible to the emotional tinkering and indoctrination that have been taking place by the Left for decades.


This sounds like I am denigrating young women, but the truth is, that is simply an observation. (I could be wrong in drawing that conclusion, but I found the absence of young men involved in this both apparent and startling.)

It does not surprise me that there are vocal elements on the Left who want to change the voting age to 16, or even 13. I can see why they would want that.

he is a full blown LIAR about vaccines. Del Bigtree and RFKjr SUED the CDC and won, proving that the CDC never did any testing of vaccines.

(Previously posted on a similar thread)

Science (from the Latin word scientia, meaning “knowledge”) is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations. (definition of “Science” from wikipedia)

Dr. Anthony Fauci believes we have an “anti-science bias” problem. We just don’t believe science and we don’t believe authority, And that’s unfortunate because, you know, science is truth, (his words condensed from the article)

“So when they see someone up in the White House, which has an air of authority to it, who’s talking about science, that there are some people who just don’t believe that — and that’s unfortunate because, you know, science is truth,” (Fauci says)

I would offer this rebuttal to Dr. Fauci:

1: I believe very strongly in carefully done and well documented science, It is the fundamental basis for our advanced standard of living for hundreds of years.

2: Most of what I have seen so far on the subject of this Covid-19 pandemic, has not been science, knowledge, or even “truth”. It has been , instead, ever changing speculation based on wildly inflated (and ever changing) “models”, deliberately misleading and fear mongering “death rate) statistics. Speculation, guesses, predictions based on inadequate models is NOT science nor is it truth.

3: And Dr. Fauci it right about one thing: I don’t believe “authority”, especially when it is based on speculative predictions and exercised as arrogantly and excessively as it has been in many cases from various leaders in this pandemic.

Science is about the scientific method. Forming a hypothesis and testing if it is true or false and honestly admitting the results, as well as recording the procedure so that others can try and confirm it.
