I usually make my points in short essay format, but this morning I was inspired me to create something punchier.
Special thanks to Rebecca Watson for inspiring the first-ever YH&C political cartoon. Friedrich Hayek spoke of scientism, the use of scientific language and the trappings of science to make unscientific points. I think the feminist faction of skeptics are guilty of "skepticism" where they attempt to dismiss their opponents by falsely accusing them of being pseudoscientific and using logical fallacies.

ReplyDeleteI'm developing a new IQ test with my latest batch of Koch funding. Here's how it works, if you ever use the term "mansplain" in a non-sarcastic manner, you fail.
