stigma, taboo, and has influenced everybody.

I wouldn't say it's in people's nature because I don't think that would be fair to my colleague because I think it's just the stigma and the taboo goes back so many decades that people have been taught so often that this is nonsense.

And you know the old saying, if you hear a lie repeated enough times, you begin to think it's the truth.

So I don't blame people for

for even for making fun of me for doing it because really it's the culture.

It's a sign of a culture.

And so it's really not their fault that they're so skeptical.

Yeah, I heard the Labour Party didn't do too well.

Yeah, it's like not as even when Keir Starvers and that wasn't there.

I've heard from John Oliver, actually, who's now married.

Yes, it does, because dark matter is one of those things that also used to be laughed at and still is by people like, you know, chemists or dense matter physicists, wealth, or even astronomers who don't work on it, think, oh, whatever, it's nonsense.

It's made up even to this day.

And so there are there are some analogies, even though I said dark matter is mainstream.

Yeah, it wasn't always that way.

And there are still people, including, you know, big name people in science and physics or in astrophysics who think it's nonsense.

And so there's definitely a lot of similarity.

That's an excellent question.

Sometimes it's because of being comfortable.

We're comfortable with our current knowledge and paradigms.

And so we get uncomfortable when there is a paradigm shift, which is unfortunate because scientists should be excited about new possibilities, new discoveries.
