who deems them experts? what does it take to be an expert? are experts ever wrong? History is filled with experts who were wrong. History is also filled with experts who can't even admit they were wrong. Why should I put blanket trust in someone just because someone else calls them an expert?

To be clear, I'm not arguing the validity of the position of "trust experts", I' arguing the inanity of encouraging people to trust experts who have taken the position of lying, out of their professional expertise.
