I'm an engineer and similarly I am tired of having to argue the basics of engineering with morons who like this clown. They heard something or googled something and suddenly my years at college and 30+ years of experience mean nothing. Some of the things that are pushed by the media and by amateurs are obviously stupid to anyone with basic understanding of the subject that its amazing these people aren't called out more often. The internet was supposed to deliver The Information Age and has instead delivered The Disinformation Age.

@UCpbTd291jXg5FpNX6DzcQeg DON'T BOTHER WITH THE GARBAGE CLAIMS There is no experimental gene therapy going on with respect to COVID vaccines. Fine big pharma are a pack of money grubbing mongrels but they are NOT doing gene therap. STICK to FACTS.

@davidhughes4089 Thanks, but you are in a minority. The worst offenders fall into 2 categories. First - the completely uneducated who read or heard something or watched something . Second - college graduates who don't have science or technology degrees but think those 1 or 2 classes they did taught them all they need to know. Its 2 versions of Dunning -Kruger. There's a third type but kind of rare and yet also very dangerous. Those are the engineers who have failed UPWARDS and somehow become decision makers. They are the types that caused the loss of 2 space shuttles, the Boeing Max-8, Chernobyl, various bridges and other regrettable things.

@davidhughes4089 I totally agree on the engineers not being smart with money. Project management is one of my pet subjects to howl about. In Australia where I am the list of badly managed engineering projects is so long its defies logic. Its also NOT just government its rampant through the private sector and in some ways its WORSE in the private sector because they have mangers who don't care. A lot of it is driven by the cost+ contracting that's done and how that system operates, but at the core of it is ignorance of engineering by the non-engineering management coupled with utterly hopeless project management training for engineers. Where most people know its been very poor is places like Boeing where the Max-8 was a disaster and the Starliner (for NASA) is a failure (so far). I did aerospace as my degree and NASA's projects since Apollo have been a mix of extraordinary triumphs with things like the Mars rover programs and utter tragedy like the Space Shuttle. I was actually in Florida for the launch of the last shuttle before Challenger and watched it from about 60miles away. Just recently I realised that the shuttle I saw launched that day was Columbia the other shuttle that crashed.
