“Now WHY wouldn’t he want to product the data...thinking...still thinking...”
Exactly!
If I had data that showed the end of the world was coming, I would be freely giving it out every chance I got.
Yep.
And did no one ask for the data at the time before taking it as gospel?
Well yeah, come to think of it, that’s what communists and fascists do.
They make things up and rewrite history and science and anything else to fit their agenda.
I absolutely can’t stand smarmy narcissistic people like Mann. He’s a perfect example of the type of person whose mother told him he was special, and who got pushed to go to an Ivy. Some of the dumbest, most destructive people in society are products of this same type of background. I know tons of postdocs who are brighter and more trustworthy than this clown. That he has any stature at all in US and world science is testimony to how far science has fallen.
