Ashley ReynoldsI am begging the media to stop labelling people spreading disinformation as climate or vaccine “skeptics”
Using the word “skeptic” implies that there is reasonable debate to be had on the subject. Certainly, both climate science and vaccine development/implementation are complex subjects and experts might have disagreements on the cutting edge of the science. But climate change is real. Vaccines are immensely effective at preventing disease. Both of these statements are facts.
Tricot Feelya@ashinonyx Was it Kellyanne Conway who first used the term “alternative facts?”
