I hate any cheap tricks used to provoke emotional responses as a method of generating engagement. I especially hate when the person using them boasts a background that implies their use is very intentional.
I wouldn't know, I'm nobody's ambassador.
But you have certainly misunderstood mine. Addressing scientific fraud is entirely worthwhile and necessary.
I just won't be choosing a source for that who I suspect is deliberately manipulative and pushing dodgy investment schemes. His entire brand looks like a desperate attempt to be seen as an authority on anything at all.
