Unless your rich, white, born into a family of haves, you’re life is bullseyed to the cops, military, and expendable.
Im most of these things but also gay so I’ll be in a camp before most especially after the Southern Baptist convention votes
Remember don’t all protest in one place. Multiple protests in a city are harder to control.
No one is “pretending” anything.
You literally have no experience or knowledge to determine what science is and is not since you have no background in any form of it.
Im sorry if the above offends you but it is the xase that a lack of education and/or experience in a field does mean you aren’t going to be someone who has an understanding of it.
If ypu are interested in learning why these are seen as sciences consider looking into the philosophy of science. You might be surprised what you learn when you try to.
i have a degree, but not in science. Does that make me unqualified to state that the field of psychology, and most other social sciences lack the epistemic rigor of something like physics or biology and therefore are not real sciences?
That would depend on your actual field. If you had a masters or phd focusing on the philosophy of science, then yes. If you have a degree in anything else I would suggest considering that your lack of experience within science might be what is behind your misconception.
My education was in political science and international relations. At the undergraduate level for most programs political science is more pre-law or governmental studies and does not seem like a science. When you go for your masters it suddenly become very much a statistcal science.
What the anti-science (not you) ,science agnostic (not you), and those without a background in science (this is you) typically miss is that not all sciences are created equal. Things that rely on metastudies, as many social sciences do, typically will be less conclusive than say an experiment that can be observed directly, but that doesn’t mean both are not science.
Economists aren’t trying to predict the future. That’s a misconception that is done away with in the first few days of intro.

Im asking these questions to asses what you actually understand science to be.
The term “social science” reeks of insecurity to me because other than using the scientific method, they are not a sciences at all, but I guess academics needed a way to to defend themselves from the bullying physicists.
Do you have a degree, or better yet a terminal degree in a science field? What is your actual academic experience in doing social science experiments?
I think you failed to follow theor point. Their point is if undocumented immigrants in general are a threat, why are we not pursuing those that hire these people rather than the undocumented immigrants we are currently arresting?
Why isn’t someone arresting them? If undocumented people are such a problem why not go after the people who hire them?
A methodology with reproducible experiments and results.
And why don’t you think psychology fits this?
What makes something a science?
Bingo, I was taught in genetics class in the 1990s that RNA played a role but DNA was the primary driver and now my understanding is the current consensus is RNA is the primary driver.
That wouldn’t be true for Christianity as 3 of the 4 Gospels were cribbing off the 4th one. Heck the Gospel of John and the Revelation unto John were written by at least two different people and the Revelation likely was included at the Council of Nicea because they both had John in the name. Christianity would be very different without revelations.
What are you talking about? That’s like saying Patrick Bateman, of American Psycho and Rules of Attraction, is not an aspirational alpha male figure!

Which means 54% cannot write a competent book report hitting the major plots and themes.
That’s why they got Fox News folks rather than qualified people
It’s good to hear that they took care of the homeless, solved hunger and eliminated disease since they are focusing on this.
*palate fatigue
I work in wine importing so this is a mistake I make all the damn time.
pallet- thing used to strap stuff to so they can be put on containers (for container trucks and ships).
palate - roof of your mouth or an alternate word for your taste
Palette- painter’s thing for holding paint.
Im only down with eating clean bugs that are large enough to have enough substance to be worthwhile or whatever makes it into processed foods and “foods” that I eat (jelly beans arent really food and frequently have shellac and that comes from a specific beetle.)
This isn’t like understanding a child’s game so I would say your baseball analogy is a false equivalence.
That isn’t ad hominem. Suggesting that the roots of your misunderstanding is due to your lack of experience or education in the field is not a personal attack. I am also not making an emotional appeal which is an alternate form of ad hominem.
Ad hominem would be if I suggested you couldn’t have an understanding because you are stupid (which I am absolutely in no way suggesting that you are unintelligent). I have not done this. I have suggested your lack of expertise in the field might be a good reason for you to question your own conclusions.
You dont need to become an expert but if you want to understand what we believe science is this is the place to start as the other place is a terminal degree in a science field which would be silly to suggest. The philosophy of science is the best field for you to get the answers to the uncertainty you have in your understanding
This is also not an example of ad hominem.
Why not read about the philosophy of science to expand your understanding? Why do you need to do it because I proved something to you?
