The only guy I like on this is Bob Ross and Mr Rogers

I don't even know who the guy is besides "want"

ndt has sexual assault allegations

bill nye is a engineer not a scientist and the science guy is only a stand up comedy act

So, Is Bill Nye a Real Scientist?

While Nye is absolutely an engineer, the Science Council defines a scientist as “someone who systematically gathers and uses research and evidence, to make hypotheses and test them, to gain and share understanding and knowledge.”

A program with an actual scientist is Scope with Dr Rob

You don't like Carl Sagan?

Science Guy doesn't have to mean scientist

[-] x4740N@lemm.ee 0 points 4 months ago

And it's still a comedy act, bill nye is qualified to be an engineer, not a scientist

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_James_Bell

Robert James Bell is a qualified scientist

Trusting bill nye to teach science is like trusting your uncle bob who thinks he knows science to teach science

nye should be teaching engineering, not science

So science teachers also shouldn't teach science because they're not scientists?

That's not what "qualified" means.

People don't need to meet the definition of being a scientist in order for them to be educating others on scientific topics.

He's not teaching advanced science concepts, you don't need a background in science to teach bog-standard science to children

Science Guy is there to get kids excited about science, not to enforce scientific rigor

[-] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago

Bill nye isn't a scientist but he still taught science and neither Ross nor rogers are scientists either so what's the point of making that distinction then immediately ignoring it?

[-] x4740N@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah Ross and Rogers aren't scientists, they thought different things

Ross teaches art and Rogers teaches about values a lot of people in the united states should live by because the united states is a dystopian hell hole pioneered by bigots and capitalists

They guy next to want is Carl Sagan. He's a pretty smart guy.

[-] illectrility@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

And he's an astrophysicist. So according to this guy he is even qualified to be talking about science

And Jean Claude Van Damm was a dancer first. Who the hell cares? They inspire people to explore science and teach the fundamentals of science. Nowhere in the meme do they claim to be anything other than inspiration.
