Are You Crazy, Stupid, Ignorant, or Just Cognitively Biased?

The world is full of people who hold whacky views. This doesn’t make them nuts or stupid.

We can mock Donald Trump for being a birther, but this doesn’t make him a crazy person. We can ridicule Senator James Inhofe for believing that global warming is a big hoax cooked up by a cabal of climate scientists, but this doesn’t make him an idiot. We can laugh at Bill Maher for his anti-vaccine and anti-GMO tirades, but this doesn’t make him an anti-science loon.

A little crazy, a little biased.

A little crazy, a little biased.
