Just watch the video. The title is maybe a little bit inflammatory, the content is not. If you're here to dispute the actual facts being discussed, cool, otherwise, this is an appeal to authority.

So, spend half an hour on it on the off chance it's not junk, in a field that is rife with politicised and inflammatory hot takes. That's a hard sell, frankly. I'll get back to you if I get the time.

I would not entirely dismiss as "appeal to authority" any filtering on such a field, that is so full of bad faith takes and misinformation. There's no shortage of that at all. And frankly, focusing on it as a pressing issue now, which it wasn't e.g. 10 years ago, is itself a culture-war distraction from more real things.

I feel fine ignoring Ms Hossenfelder's warmed-over second-hand bothsidesism. IDK why you are attached to it. But if you are, I fully expect you to also pore over what came out in it wake (I'm, replying now when it's in)
