    But “look at the evidence” IS “trust noone”. Neither science nor journalism has been built on “trust me bro”, religion and politics was.

    The line of thinking you’re promoting is how dedicated political party fans behave, they distrust anyone who says the party has done something wrong. That’s also the exact mechanism of how child rapes have been and are happening in the catholic church. The good priest may have told little Pete to suck him off, but he’s an authority and why should we trust a kid over him.

    Not sure why Americans use the word “professor” for any university teacher, but the people with an actual professor degree (two levels above ph.d.) actually were scary. Super self absorbed, too busy to properly teach, hard exams, on one instance you had to buy the latest edition of prof’s book to pass.

    Regular doctors and doctorants were mostly great though.
