>>9606948True but irrelevant. Science is an ideological process.
>>9606943It's only a misconception if it's wrong; however, the scientific method, which gives us scientific facts, requires consensus to determine scientific facts. Plenty of things have been scientific facts in the past and later proven wrong.
I'm a centrist as well, so here goes my own anecdote:
When I debate conservatives, they deny factual evidence and claim it's part of some grand scheme, like the atheists libruls tryin' to ruin dis here country wit der climate science, and they try to deny logical conclusions from facts by trying to shift the argument to some other issue that they think I might disagree with them on.
When I debate with liberals, say on Abortion, they usually admit that it's immoral and obviously killing after about 3 minutes of arguing but just claim it's a matter of personal choice.
Liberals aren't anti-science, they're just morally inconsistent. Conservatives actively believe shit that isn't the truth regardless of how much evidence goes against it.
