Scientific propaganda as used in the mass media (e.x. popsi articles as a form of advertising or the perpetuation of scientific or scientist superstitions to the masses) relies on the average 100 IQ and 6th grade reading level of its misinformed consumers, via its childish spread of scientific mythology, popular superstitions, and false historical methods, associated with either as an industry or system, primarily for the purpose of consumerist 'marketing' and the selling of frivolous and fatuous consumer products, such as cell phones, washing machines, and things of that nature.

Higher education and intellectual inquisitiveness whether historical, methododical, logical, philosophical, anything else more or less renders all of these urban legends, modern superstitions, fables, narratives, and nonsensical predictions irrelevant and not taken seriously above the 100 IQ or 6th grade reading level to begin with (many of whom uneducated 'bubbas' aren't even so much as able deconflate the actual scientific information and the reading and subject matter comprehension thereof, from the archaic, simplistic 6th grade reading level low entry level-education methodologies and rote repetition which even a 5 year old could do, devoid of any deeper level learning(s) or comphension, archaic holdovers and relics from the 19th century they are to begin with, and an outdated, 'fast food' substitute for higher level intellectual education and or learning methodologies and systems, like those of Rhodes Scholar Edward De Bono...), nor within any contemporary higher-level academic industry, being primarily driving and filled with outdated 19th century scientific information and associated axioms to begin with, many if not most of which have been debunked or rendered obsolete within more contemporary, higher level research and or developments within those and / or other fields (such as the "systems sciences" by physicist Fritjof Capra, and his other writings such as the Dao of physics).

In other nonsensical instances, the propaganda and marketing in question even relies on popular and mass education on the bare basis of their own law, medical and /or legal institutions, and so on (such as falsely conflating "medicine" as an industry and its history thereof with natural sciences, or the use of 'scientific' jargon in propaganda and advertising to sell snake oil to the uninformed and superstitious).

Banning and eliminating scientific propaganda in America, Britain, and Western Europe (or other nations as well) would be a huge progressive step forward, as it would all thinking men and women of some contemporary intelligence or affinity for reading and learning the ability to read about the natural sciences, the history of them and their founder Francis Bacon's, as well as what said inductive method is limited to in practice and scope, with the use and abuse of anti-intellectual scientific propaganda and said mass media pedagogues thereof, whether childish and intellectually vapid idiots, liars, charlatans or demagogues. like Bill Nye, Richard Dawkins or anyone else, demonstrating a bare basic lack of knowledge about the rudiments of their own institutions, whether scientific, legal, political or otherwise, whether by an archaic 19th century standard or a contemporary 21st century and Information Age one, whose career would be out of business if anyone read or wrote at above a 6th grade reading level, or if the average national IQs in America and Britain were a paltry 10 points higher.
 
“Scientific propaganda” is a conflict in terms. Actual propaganda typically involves zero science.

E.g. - Inhofe: Look, I found a snowball. Therefore the planet can’t be warming! :)

So drastically different from 'It snowed today. See, the planet's warming!'
 
Who gets to use the red magic marker?

Better yet, why don't you take your censorship ideals back to medieval times where they belong?

Complete non-sequitur.

Yes, propaganda, such as the use of science or scientific claims in advertising or mass media (e.x. pretty much any magazine selling something 'nutritional', for example) does indeed exist, a mass media propaganda source of quip loosely and tangentially related to natural sciences and/or other industries falsely conflated with them, such as "medicine" or "manufacturing" is not the same, as say, a full-length graduate or post-graduate level book on a scientific subject, like that of Fritjof Capra, which most people have and never will read to begin with, assuming they even had or have the IQ and or reading level necessary to do so with any higher level of reading comprehension beyond that bare minimum, or any aptitude or willingness to acquire such a thing to begin with.

E.g. - Inhofe: Look, I found a snowball. Therefore the planet can’t be warming! :)
Again, a complete non-sequiter, such an issue, of course is one which involves uses and abuses of simplistic ad populum and argument from authority fallacies, or the uses and interpretations of the data related to warming and so on and so forth, either stupidly or falsely conflated with various political or philosophical systems and axioms, which existed and completely-pre dated the acquisition of any modern or recent scientific data to begin with, or the promotion of conspiracy theories (e.x. capitalism) and attacking actual science simply for one's ideological or quasi-religious axioms, many of them archaic 19th century philosophical hold overs to begin with, in light of actual productivity, sustainability, innovation and so forth (such as companies like Tesla motors being involved in the development of alternative energy sources).
 
No, I reject the Nanny State urge to enforce GoodThink.

People should be free to determine what they believe is valid. We don't need Statist Enforcers to censor what we read.

I'm in favor of using censorship as a weapon in ideological warfare to shut down archaic and decrepit ideals, such the abundance of outdated, 19th century 'scientistic' mass media, propaganda, and misinformation.

While at the same time, only delegating the notion of "freez peach" to those who have anything worth saying to begin with (such as those of a conservative philosophical candor), a bunch of 6th grade reading level idiots, anarchic leftists, and others of the barbarian, the atheistic, the mouth-breathing persuasion not being one of them.

Leftists, for example, deserve no quarter, and the ideological and technological war which we on the 'right' side of history wage against their feral ilk, should be done with the same passion by which Torquemada hunted down heretics.

Everything short of physical torture, murder, assassination, and extermination, is and should be fair game, hopefully Trump and his administration will be useful allies in such an end, Trump's personal flaws aside, long as he is likewise an enemy of our mutual enemy.

Okay, I THINK I understand what you’re trying to get at (although it seems like you’re taking a rather long way around the block).

Clearly you're an interesting, articulate human. May I ask what you do/ did for a living and also curious as to your political leanings. Thanks!

You're also a complete idiot if you think for a moment that you hold all the pearls of wisdom. But how NAZI of you to say so.

Well of course you do. Authoritarians always proclaim a "holier than thou' attitude as justification for their own barbarian actions and superstitious beliefs. For your ilk, I don't believe ya'll will stop short of any of that once you're faced the real prospects of being voted out of power.
 
You know someone is afraid when they start trying to ban things.
More hypocrisy from the king of identity politics everyone.

Bet you staged one or two of the bannings of conservatives speaking at the scumbag universities around the country.

Do you have your very own Malcolm X hat?

Don't feed the troll.
 
It's important that the scientific community weighs in our daily decisions as consumers...

Actually, I've had many, many squabbles with the illiberal, authoritarian Regressive Lefties here on this very topic.

Do you go out of your way to constantly be wrong about my viewpoints? Seriously, do you have any shame at all?

If your memory were not so distorted by your ideology, you might remember these memes that I made and posted here.

Brilliant try, Einstein.

Everyone calling each other authoritarian as we are in a soft tyranny now, is not fixing the problem. Do you think any of the candidates and any elected politician now are going to say they will eliminate whole departments and any authoritarian laws already enacted and ready to use? We already have an advancing surveillance state with video, audio and facial recognition. And both the public and private sides are involved in it. We have massive security in many areas and places we go. And we do not realize the rights we lost. We accept them. And the politicians caused this. A minor screw up many years ago can become a feather in the authoritarian's cap and a jail sentence with a fine effectively destroying a potential career. And there are a lot of people who screwed up in the past.

Well I did read a post or two in twitter about how ME peeps can drink camel piss to ward off Corona virus. Ban them from saying it? Nah, let'm do their thing.

Riiiight

Do you know what hypocrisy is? You can argue whatever you want. At the end of the day YOU VOTE FOR THE MARXISTS.

Is there ANYTHING Trump has done that you agree with? How about the economy?

Try not crediting obama like you always do, or else I will need to post how the democrats directly contributed to the economic crash of 2008. I have pasted the official archives of exactly when the democrats DELIBERATELY ignored every warning.

So, back to Trump and this propaganda issue. Where or why do you suppose all of these leftists act like they do? Hmmmm?

You claim you argue with them, but are you acknowledging why they think the way they do?

How do you think propaganda works? You love to claim that I think the way I think cause of conservative radio. You point that out a lot. That is your go to.

So, why do you suppose they think the way they do? Remember, you claim you argue with them all of the time.
