This kind of “scientists are so stupid” mindset is so weird

They even know the colouration of a bunch of them, like this Sinosauropteryx:

Science success story:

Aboriginal religions generally hold that long ago in the Dreaming times, the world was cold, there was less water, and the coast was further away. You used to be able to walk to many of the islands around the Australian coast, because there were land bridges.

White people generally assumed these stories were mythological fiction, because white people are often racist and intolerant. However, science eventually figured out that 10,000 years ago, there was an ice age. The polar ice caps were bigger, and the ocean was shallower. Those land bridges were found under the modern ocean through satellite imaging. Aboriginal religions were right, and science proved that these religious histories had been preserved and kept accurate for 10,000 years!

Science wins again!

While true about the proto feathers dinosaurs had, the mis id of their species as reptiles lives on to this day. Half the population doesn't even know they are from birds, and were warm blooded.

But first somebody had to make a movie with the wrong data, making the whole field cool enough to get funding to found out they were wrong.
