          ROFL What is this worm driven host doing?! Doesn't the worm know that E. Coli infections can be deadly for the elderly? (Yes, I am being super facetious because reading about a Germ Theory Skeptic in the modern age has effectively broken my brain. The evidence that proves microorganisms like bacteria, parasites, and viruses are real is truly a massive amount. That's a lot of knowledge that this dumb, incompetent human being is simply ignoring). Ugh, this wasn't on my bingo card for this month. A small part of me hopes that E. Coli proves to him that germ theory isn't something that can be dismissed, and he dies from his foolishness.

              Stop calling everyone a "skeptic" and call them what they are: deniers. Anti-science, fact resistant deniers. Calling people germ-theory skeptics, or climate skeptics, or vaccine skeptics, and so on and so on, makes it sound like there's an honest scientific debate going on

                  Exactly. Skepticism is about casting doubt on beliefs and dogmas, not outright rejecting facts. When it comes to germs and vaccines there's scientific consensus on those matters. They're as close to facts as you can get. But rejecting those you're not a skeptic, you're a denier. There's no scientific debate on those topics, only a political debate on whether to reject science or not.

                    I'm sorry but "Germ-theory sceptic" is damaging enough considering the last one should have died in the 1800's.

                        numerous century-old municipal sewer lines that run under the park. These lines have cracked over time and leak sewage

                        This is easy to fix.

                        Shame the article doesn't say how much the municipality is being fined every day they continue to leak raw sewage into the watershed.

                              Usually the people in charge of regimes like this are often sadistic hypocrites and absolutely know that what they spout is bullshit. RFK jr. here on the other hand, is apparently actually a fucking idiot.

                                    'idiots' is my preferred term. I'm in favor of calling stupid people out again. Too long has stupidity been condoned and even championed 'He tells it like it is'.

                                    They are morons and need to be called that unabashedly.

                                      i’m adding, not disagreeing… guess i should’ve said, ā€œyeah comrade, well put, scientists are the real skeptics šŸ¤ā€
                                      but, for the record, i agree with your preceding comment.
                                      i apologize for lack of clarity šŸŽ© šŸ¤

                                        I honest to God can't believe how such fucking morons managed to get power. RFK jr. Would have been seen as a bigger crackpot than Alex Jones if he wasn't RFK's son.
