Just because you’ve seen examples of a few bad scientists, doesn’t mean that all scientists are bad. Just because you’ve seen a few examples of bad doctors, doesn’t mean all doctors are bad. Just because…. and so on. Get your facts straight and use multiple sources to confirm things. If you have knowledge and skills to perform the experiment yourself, even better. Research done right and without bias (confirmation bias) is a powerful tool in your life’s arsenal! 🐶🐾🫡

Well said.

We live in the world where in every field of expertise there are full spectrum of opinions and people only tend to desperately hold only to one or the other edge of that spectrum and ignore everything in between.

Our brain works this way. We need simplifications in life for most of the things to not waste too much energy on overthinking.

I really recommend in this field book:

'Thinking fast and slow' by Daniel Kahneman

Being aware of those mechanisms is the first step to regain control.

Fun fact: brain weights less than 2% of your body mass but it consumes around 20% of the energy to operate.

Thinking is expensive process. 🙃
