It’s so wild! Why they have to intervene and say “I know better” without ever even asking to collaborate with a current historian who actually… studies that thing… I’ll never understand.

I can’t wait to make big sweeping virology charges with only “the evolution of mutual linguistic trends in 15th century Spain” as my evidence.

I mean, I guess I do understand it. Any historian would challenge their confirmation bias. And then they wouldn’t feel so self important. You would think a “scientist” could put two and two together though and recognize that’s what they’re doing. Alas…
