From: Benj on 15 Jul 2010 15:00 I'm sure you all know that the censored forum supported by Scientific American, Physics Forums, has taken over "moderation" of Sci.physics.research. Or should I say taken over censorship of it. Censorship for the "control" of science has been a major function of the popular science press like Scientific American for a very long time as has been "peer review" and censorship of scientific journals been a major "control" pathway in science. For example holowarmer shills like "Sam Wormely" greatly depend upon the popular science press to provide myriad "cites" that support their current promotions. Of course, just as "democracy" depends upon the electorate being informed and the major media has been performing a "control" function on information, similar "controls" exist in science. While the talking heads on TV's "60 Minutes" have developed their self-styled "reputation" for "trust" and "integrity", it takes but one program dedicated to "gun control" to prove how purposely biased and untrustworthy they all are. But one EXPECTS lies and "points of view" such as "my party is always right and yours is always wrong" in politics. The problem is when such censorship and propaganda invade science. sci.physics.research being a prime example of such subversion of real science. What happens is that science turns into religion. Evolution is "fact". AGW is "beyond question". UFOs observations are suitable only for ridicule. Nothing exists in science beyond "official" positions and advancements are allowed ONLY after they have been approved and granted blessings by the famous great men in positions of science "leadership" and authority. The bottom line is the clever destruction of any "real" science with science "journalism" leading the way. Especially hideous is the way in which censorship occurs in secret behind the scenes. There are never any opposing views because opposing views are stripped out BEFORE anything appears. The public never learns that that there even WAS an opposing viewpoint. Hence if Scientific American tells the science layman that CO2 causes "climate change" or that letting blood removes your "bad humours", the public has no choice but to believe it. Even the EXISTENCE of other points of view are censored out of existence. How wonderful it is that we in "science" can still count on this herd of "leaders" to make sure that doctors never wash their hands when operating or examining patients. Ain't science great? But what do I know? I'm just a crackpot! I need to go read a freshman textbook! (We'll cover censorship in the textbook industry next) |
