    Being anti-science is not edgy. It is not brave. It is not independent thinking. It is embarrassing. It was embarrassing when people thought the sun orbited the earth. It was embarrassing when doctors thought washing hands was unnecessary. Every single time in human history that someone decided feelings were more reliable than evidence they were wrong and they looked like idiots to every generation that came after them.

    That is you right now. In real time. Looking like an idiot.

    The schoolyard bully who pushed people around because they had nothing else going for them went out with the 1980s. Demanding debates you have no business being in is that exact same energy. Trying to feel powerful by intimidating people who are smarter than you. It did not work then. It does not work now. And everyone watching can see exactly what it is.

    And here is the thing nobody says out loud. The moment I agree to debate you I have told the world that your misinformation deserves to share a stage with facts. That propaganda belongs in the same conversation as truth. That what you read in a Facebook group is on the same level as what scientists spent decades proving in a laboratory.
