all tv personality neil degrasse tyson does is say profound sounding nonsense. take this whopper from his recently uploaded colbert interview
"if you have a big enough sample size, rare things become common" like wtf kind of scientist says that
Lol this made me laugh . Also NPH > NDT
Back in 2006 he was just a gaudier, more condescending take on the Sagan persona. These days he is also a poor man's Weinstein.
Well I just saw the video and the way he grabbed and pushed and lifted the shirt in front of an audience was far more aggravating than what I had in my mind. If he has the gal to do that on stage, I can only wonder how bad it can get in more private settings.
Regarding what you said to what I said, I was just saying he could still develop research or perform duties not directly related to public exposure.
Video is really bad though, we might see a lot more women coming forward
I'm confused. Am I banned?
I think he's banned.
You're not banned. That ban message from a mod is for user "CrispyBacon."
Neil Patrick Harris?
Well I don't know it, so I used her..
What about her story do you find incredible and not worthy of further scrutiny?I'm not "rushing out" to do anything of the sort. Quite the opposite, in fact; I am against rushing to any conclusion. For my part, I examined Amet's story alongside those of the three women who spoke out afterwards and find theirs significantly more credible. It's fine to do the same and reach a different conclusion. The point I'm trying to make is that a blanket "believe every woman, every time" stance is incredibly naive. We should spend at least some time actually thinking.
Did you read the OP before posting? The first allegations were made four years ago. Not last week. Over 220 weeks ago.Little confused by the title. Didn't Fox and NatGeo say they were opening an investigation after the last accusation? That sounds like people believed them then. Considering how recent that work related incident was and how her story basically says she told people she left due to his behavior, I assumed the truth would come out pretty quick. Always good to have more people speaking up though.
Yeah whenever I see the initials I think NPH

I mean. I don't mean to put myself in the position of covering his ass, but that's a fundamental notion to understand the scale and eventfulness of cosmic events, especially as they relate to the scale of our own context. Same thing as to say that nothing disappears, it's also something that seems basic but is still a fundamental truth about how to understand things at our scale.
Me too. Can some give me a proper list? It's very chaotic here.I still don't know what NDT did that got him such a spotlight (not talking about sexual assault allegations)

I don't have any specific examples besides this one but he definitely got his start with the whole Pluto isn't a planet thing iirc and he took that spotlight to become a "pr person/hype person" for science in general that spoke on a simple and charismatic level that people easily attached to him.
