So you studied a discipline where the most sophisticated thinking required is elementary arithmetic, reading, and some organization skills, and you consider yourself intellectually superior to a PhD in astrophysics. OK. This is prime clown world right here.

Hurr durr debits and credits...definitely on the same level as astrodynamics. Neil could master your field in under a week. Srs. He could do your job better than you. He's superior to you. You're like a fuking insect to him. Realize that.

Where would you be without jews?

Checkmate, Hitler.

I have nothing against jews so kinda weird post

Where would you be without the Chinese?
Checkmate, Peter Navarro.

Anyway, if we r being srs, Tyson merely pointed out the harmful effects of European colonialism. This cannot really be denied. I don't see what the fuss is about. The argument that there was other imperialism too is irrelevant to this. Also, there was never anything remotely close to the scale of European imperialism. Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, the UK...come on man.

Wrong my dear pseudo intellectual.

The Mongols alone probably killed and enslave more people than all of the European nations COMBINED.

Let's not count the Assyrians, Romans and Chinese who may also have more blood on their hands than anyone in history.

Its ok to be white guys, cherish it. It is also ok to be non-white.

Go look at WW2 death tolls my uneducated prick. Compare to Mongol death tolls. End of discussion.

And Romans count as Europeans u blithering idiot.

If you really want to keep score, European imperialism really was the worst in human history. Period.

In one instance, Katelyn N. Allers, an associate professor of physics and astronomy at Bucknell University in Pennsylvania, said she met Dr. Tyson in 2009 at a party after a gathering of the American Astronomical Society. He was examining her tattoo of the solar system, which stretches along her arm to her collarbone, and she said he followed the tattoo with his hand, putting it into her dress. He said he was looking for Pluto, she said.

Ashley Watson, who had been his assistant on the television series “Cosmos,” made another accusation. She said that during a visit to his apartment, which she thought was for work purposes, he held her hand and stared into her eyes, in what he called a Native American handshake, for about 10 seconds until she pulled away. Ms. Watson said that as she was leaving, he told her, “I want you to know that I want to hug you so bad right now, but I know that if I do, I’ll just want more.” She subsequently quit her job.

The article also included already public allegations by Tchiya Amet el Maat, who said Dr. Tyson raped her in 1984 when they were in graduate school at the University of Texas, Austin.

Dr. Tyson responded to the allegations in a long ******** post, in which he denied the rape and described the first two incidents as benign.

“While I don’t explicitly remember searching for Pluto at the top of her shoulder, it is surely something I would have done in that situation,” Dr. Tyson wrote of Dr. Allers’s account. “As we all know, I have professional history with the demotion of Pluto, which had occurred officially just three years earlier. So whether people include it or not in their tattoos is of great interest to me.”

Dr. Allers said she was interviewed in person for several hours by an investigator from T&M Protection Resources, a company the museum hired. She said the investigator followed up with witnesses she provided, and looked into a speech Dr. Tyson gave at a conference in 2014, which she said included jokes about gay people and criticisms of conservatives.


Dr. Tyson was also investigated by Fox Broadcasting and National Geographic, which broadcast his television series, “StarTalk” and “Cosmos.” Those companies announced in March that their investigations were complete and that his shows would return to the air. Dr. Allers said that investigation seemed less thorough to her, just a half-hour phone call with investigators from the two networks.

True. It's also ok to be an astrophysicist and point out how awful European colonialism was for the world.

you seem upset

Climate change is a Marxist propaganda tool to tax the working class. The planet's climate has always and will continue to CHANGE, hence why we know the existence of the ice age.

Yep, and I consider you a ******* (which you clearly are).

No you downie. The burning of fossil fuels has caused the warming of the Earth due to the greenhouse effect. We are also causing mass deaths of ocean creatures, and a mass extinction of insects. None of this is going to be good for us in the future. But you're an illiterate fuk who denies atmospheric physics.

This is like when the first grader can't do his hw so he calls it and the teacher dumb and goes and pouts. That's the GOP. Face it. You're a bunch of chitforbrains superstitious retards praying to your imaginary friend in the sky. Hey dipchit. Your God is not real, and prayer won't save you. Science might if you actually respected it enough to fund it. But we don't really do science here anymore. We've become a beta piece of chit backwater chithole country full of idiots too uninformed to make proper decisions. Who's pioneering fusion research? China. Who is going to build the largest accelerator in the world? China. Who is 100% committed to furthering STEM? China. Who will pull ahead? Take a fuking guess. History has always rewarded the country that valued STEM. But sadly, here in the states, a lowly bean counting moron like you thinks he deserves more respect than a PhD in astrophysics. This is why our country is a fuking joke.

Have fun with your debits and credits sheets. Maybe ask yourself why almost all of the most brilliant minds in our country hate Trump and have strongly advocated against the GOP. Must be a socialist conspiracy right? Fuking clown.

When are you going to move out of daddy's house?

European Imperialism started in the 1400's you simpleton, it seems to me you seek to target a specific group of people my dear closet racist.

He is a total scam artist. Using his perceived intellectual abilities to make money and get laid.

you seem upset

When are your millions of predicted covid deaths happening?

Asking for a friend.

I think it's obvious to understand the backlash.

Brb saying
black people murder
black people steal
black people rape

is not the same as

all people murder
all people steal
all people rape

Even though both are true.

I think it's something i'd expect from a internet troll and not a large public figure like Neil.

Indeed.

youre right, he meant to say "loot it first, then burn it down"

I never liked that pretentious *******.

I hated the fact that they got someone who has no achievement(s) in physics to fill the boots of Carl Sagan.

Except European colonialism has been the more recent and more damaging factor overall. Mongols were bad, sure. But look at WW2, WW1, and the rape of Africa. Look at the UK and their dominance, and the effects they had on China and India. Look at the Roman empire. Are we really going to debate this?

Our own fuking country was founded in defiance to European colonialism and tyranny while simultaneously manifesting it upon the natives here. Let that fuking sink in. You don't want to admit your so called "ancestors" ever did anything wrong. BTW I am probably at some point related to those same ancestors, and you probably related to the victims. It is really dumb how u picture ur genes as an unbroken lineage from one "race" and call yourself white. Some of you have mongol DNA (and most of u mongoloid). Let that sink in.

The consumption of terrestrial vegetation by animals and by microbes (rotting, in other words) emits about 220 gigatonnes of CO2 every year, while respiration by vegetation emits another 220 Gt. These huge amounts are balanced by the 440 Gt of carbon dioxide absorbed from the atmosphere each year as land plants photosynthesise.

If you run a greenhouse and you want to turbo-charge plant growth, you can do it by injecting CO2 into the greenhouse. Side by side videos of plants in an environment with normal CO2 levels and plants in an environment with highly elevated levels of CO2 show an astounding difference in the rate of growth. In fact, an area the size of the United States has greened up around the world as the CO2 concentration has increased. CO2 is not our enemy. CO2 is our friend.

You seem upset.

You seem like a guy who has no idea what a fuking Hibert space is. The idea that you really think you're superior to a PhD in astrophysics simply because he is black and you are white is the most ridiculous bit of self delusion I have ever seen.

We wuz kangs!
