Party of Science! At least until the science doesn’t fit with your emotionally driven narrative:


Twitter exploded in rage as all the usual pearl clutchers rushed to condemn him. I am not NGT’s biggest fan since he stopped doing what he was good at (being a science educator) and started doing what he ain’t so good at (being a political pundit). But he’s right here. And no amount of hand wringing and condemnation is going to erase this very fact.
I wonder what he (or his twitter team) were thinking.
Something good for a change. Kudos to him for this.
Has he recanted yet?
Given the twitter reaction, and then that there were Important_news_articles written about the twitter reaction all pressuring him…
Ah there we go…
he recanted… and now the story is that he didn’t recant in the “right” way.
