Why don't we (at least try to) normalize skepticism more often?

Instead, everyone else seems to be advocating the normalizations of things that are rather antithetical to skepticism.

Skepticism can't be tolerated within the realm modern mainstream science, because modern mainstream science is a religion. Skepticism to any "settled science" is equivalent of when a heretic questioned the legitimacy the Bible or the consensus that the world was flat. A skeptic to "settled science" is the equivalent of a heathen, a pagan. *

* (which btw is anyone who's ethnically and spiritually non-jewish, so it's a very fitting comparison - since within modern science we're supposed to practice and believe in jewish ideas and concepts, i.e. Einsteinian nonsense as opposed to real physics etc).

Half based. It’s not a religion, it’s just politics and money. Nevertheless, the same people are the ones spearheading anti-skepticism and “settled science”.

Most people are too busy (or distracted) to follow up on skepticism. Plus as a general rule, people don't like uncertainty. It makes them anxious. Most people want their predigested answers, you understand? They want them. They will fight you for them.

many of the current ideas are a result of thousands/hundreds of years of studying, research, etc. if you are going to be skeptical about them while only having trivial superficial knowledge then you and your opinion belong in the trash

Oh, goodness no. No one does what you're talking about, OP. Just Americans.

with normalization of skepticism would come increased knowledge about the subject at hand--it would have to be this way otherwise everyone will be skeptical about everything and nothing would be done correctly.
