In 2012, in a proceeding straight out of the Inquisition, an Italian court convicted six scientists for providing "inexact, incomplete and contradictory information" in the lead-up to the earthquake. Now, a philosophy professor says that case may provide a worthwhile example for the treatment of scientific dissentersspecifically, "climate deniers who receive funding as part of a sustained campaign to undermine the publics understanding of scientific consensus."

the professor is criminally ignorant
old tagline - "Intellectuals only exist if you think they do."
“All science is dissent.”
But rather than seek TRUTH, THEY rather believe things like... all of a sudden, even though they don’t know WHEN, there was a Big Bang, and then Poof...there everything was. And up to this day, they still believe it. Now currently, global warming.
A very vulgar display of “the failure of the human condition”, I say. It’s “criminal’ in and of itself for anyone to get a paying job teaching such malarkey as “philosophy”, or any of those useless, worldly views, let alone have to listen their shamblabbery. It’s languages of the devil...who IS a Liar.
No different than the discombobulated medical field. One day something is bad for you, and then all of of sudden, it’s GOOD for you...even though it’s still “bad” for you.
I expect that if they ever got their wish of ridding the world of us “peasants”, it wouldn’t be long after that they would also cease to exist, as well. For obvious reasons.
