Ed wrote about Neil deGrasse Tyson’s idiotic performance on Bill Maher’s show earlier today.
Ed’s post featured the fraud’s ideological defense of Scientific American and of alphabet ideology, both of which have been featured in Hot Air posts.
Tyson matters because he is a science “influencer” whose job it is to be an ambassador to the masses for scientists, who are generally not known for being outstanding communicators.

I want to take another shot at Tyson–not just because I despise his pretentiousness, although I admit I enjoy poking at him every chance I get–because he is dangerous. As one of the “experts” who mislead people, he has an outsized impact on public opinion…
