Fwiw Nye does seem to be very chummy with Neil de Grasse Tyson, and that guy's issues are far more well attested to. From the smug poor media literacy, to reports of being professionally hard to work with, to his sexual harrassment allegations. I'm not especially inclined to give Nye the benefit of the doubt given the company he chooses to keep.

I had to look up the sexual harassment stuff. That's from 2019 and it was either cleared or never substantiated.

Even if Tyson is a bit of a lolcow on twitter, there are far worse things to be.

I'm just really suspicious of how popular it is to discredit science communicators while anti-intellectualism is so pervasive in society. It's far easier to tear something down then it is to build something.

I find it fascinating that they're out for blood when it comes to Tyson and Nye, but they ignore the rapist in the whitehouse...
