Exactly, imagine if we threw away the entire peer review process and made it about, "Well I have a PhD! Checkmate."

We'd descend into a dark age for science.

Nice, that's on my bucket list.

Experts often disagree.

If it were that easy, everything would be solved. We wouldn't need so much research or so many universities.

Where is this from? 🙏🏼😭

Now we gotta find the machines that can make both pet and human wet food and treats.

I agree with Dr. Jey McCreight on the science.

But for determining truth, both sides are wrong here.

Dunning-Kruger is bad, but so is credentialism and appeal to authority.

Many people with PhD's have had Dunning-Kruger. Someone else mentioned Ben Carson being great at neurosurgery, but not politics.

A PhD doesn't make you infallible.

I am saying this as someone who is taking graduate-level courses and will be pursuing my PhD. When I'm correct, it's not because my future PhD causes reality to magically conform to my opinions - it's because I rigorously looked at the evidence, logic, and formed my own conclusion that better aligns with reality.

Yeah, both sides are wrong here.

Dunning-Kruger is bad, but so is credentialism and appeal to authority.

Doing okay.

Just picked up my cat's ashes today, but also ate some pizza with my bf.

I did okay on my midterms. Got an 85%.
