Why Republicans Don’t Like Neil DeGrasse Tyson

submitted by blahpook

1 decade 4 months ago

When astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson dropped by Real Time tonight, Bill Maher couldn’t resist showing him a National Review cover story about Tyson called “Smarter Than Thou,” about the cult of Tyson and “puffed-up ‘nerd’ culture” in America. And Maher had a simple question for Tyson: why does he think the right dislikes him so much?

Upvote - if for no other reason than... YEAH... a LOT smarter than all but a tiny segment of the population...

Sorry that pisses you off... go study!

They!

My friend hates Black Science Guy. It's because his voice bugs him though.

Retroboy says...

I loved his gentle slam of Bill Maher's use of 'they'.

"You ain't perfect either, bub!"

Way to cut the clip right before it gets good. Love love love hearing NdGT wax philosophic about cosmic connectedness. "We are stardust."

The right doesn't like this guy? That's a classic straw man argument if i've ever heard one.

Yeah, The National Review is a mere invention by the Left to poke fun at the Right.

Uh huh.

Do you even know what those words you're using actually mean?
