After I first began using the term on the old IMDb, Arlon10 asked if it would be all right if he used it too. And I said to him please do use it. I want it to be used. I meant for it to be used. Even Cash used it recently, and perhaps now he is realizing just how badly it backfired on him. This blind faith in what passes for science now isn't just limited to climate change. It can be about abortion, evolution, and any number of issues. The term you coined? "Gangster science", as a term, has been around since at least the Cold War. Meaning: Since before there was an old IMDb board. Even before there was a World Wide Web. But considering your posting history, your opinion that it was you who coined the term already stands. I apologise for confusing you with facts.

Why "gangster" science?

Because it mocks and ridicules anyone who won't accept it as the norm.

Anyway don't you think "gangster" is a bit extreme of a term? It might not be the best term for every audience. It isn't something that's "supposed" to happen, but that's the point, it shouldn't be happening.

Anyway don't you think "gangster" is a bit extreme of a term? Read Arlon's reply. I'm not going to be namby-pamby about this. And I make a distinction between real science and gangster science.

Because it mocks and ridicules anyone who won't accept it as the norm. Do you consider scholars who reject Holocaust Denial as "gangster historians"? How about people who accept 1+1=2, are they "gangster mathematicians"? Are scientists who reject alchemy "gangster chemists"? You do realize how riddiculous you sound right?

So......if you can hire enough scientists to say the human race is ruining the world with CO2, it becomes the indisputable truth, right?

You mean like how oil companies hire "experts" to debunk global warming and lobby in Washington and shut down any environmental regulations they can? I don't see you speaking out against that so called "gangster science".

I'm glad to see you learned how to post GIFS, that must have taken a lot of work.

Because it mocks and ridicules anyone who won't accept it as the norm. Like those who insist on the existence of Nibiru, massive orbital tribulations and the conspiracy of harmful contrails?

Understand that I'm not posting this for you, FF. I'm just using your stupid post as an excuse. You're a sociopath and a rodent, and I don't care what happens to you, but there's a chance that out there that some humans might listen to it and learn something. Have a nice day.

And the video too, since the idea of 'Planet X' has long been debunked. Have a nice day yourself, my friend.
Any luck in showing that purported god you believe in yet?

Really??? I thought (and to be fair I have not looked at it for a while) that the existence of a planet orbiting outside pluto's orbit was a pretty much foregone conclusion given the variance on pluto? Has something 'new' (like in the past decade) come up?

Enjoy. After I first began using the term on the old IMDb, Arlon10 asked if it would be all right if he used it too. And I said to him please do use it. I want it to be used. I meant for it to be used. Even Cash used it recently, and perhaps now he is realizing just how badly it backfired on him. This blind faith in what passes for science now isn't just limited to climate change. It can be about abortion, evolution, and any number of issues. Maybe it will take off like "Priming the pump". Trump coined that term and it became so popular that people started using it before he was born.
