Who told you the experts are lying? Do you take the word of some random
Facebook/Xwitter loony (or local politician who believes them) over
somebody who has made a career out of studying the cause and treatment of
diseases? Do you find it easier to respond to someone who pushes your
buttons, rather than someone who tries to give you accurate explanations
that you cannot be bothered to expend the mental effort to try to
understand?
