it’s collective pressure/belief

The “scientific” aspect is largely psychiatric.

You should check out the history of USA sometime.

Yeah, your worthless comments keep piling up.

How’re you going to imprison, drug, and profit from kids without physical coercion? Get a clue.

it’s literally only diagnosed in children.

Wow sounds even more legit to victimize only kids… jfc.

Wait until you find out its entire contents and history… Total BS!

the folks who seem the loudest

Cool baseless opinion.

They have entire “diagnoses” for this. Do some basic research.

They made sure that you were teaching your classes, maintaining the reputation of the school, causing no problems for the admins, and serving your function within capitalism, right? That’s what really matters.

This stuff is sciencey, not science.

Never liked breakfast. Always made me sick. I’ll stick with my pot of coffee and noon banana… (hands shaking, stomach churning)

No you don’t have to believe whatever you hear. You can be critical instead. You can also accept the results of science up to the boundaries of the results presented. Etc. There’s absolutely no need for faith.

yes I must believe what the collective scientific community asserts… It should also be noted that there are people out there that treat science as a religion

they are putting their faith into the scientists performing the science.

This anti-science ideology is usually called scientism.

You were doing good until the very end…

Knowledge and fact are the realm of science.

No this is wrong too. Evidence and probability are the realm of science.

Science means knowing better than trusting reports that affirm preconceived notions.

It probably means that you can copy your keys between apps.

I use Noutube for youtube music and videos. It’s basically just a wrap of the mobile sites, but it blocks ads and plays while screen is locked.

People can hate on OP and I might be an idiot too… But font sizing is one reason why I switched from Gnome (on Ubuntu) to KDE Plasma (on Debian). I had setup Gnome/Ubuntu for an older friend and I was really bummed by the difficulty of increasing the fonts/icons. With Plasma it’s just basic settings.
