It’s an emergent process that, when functioning efficiently and effectively, takes ideas from the fringe and filters them through trials and critical assessment until they selfevidently fail or survive their journey to the mainstream. That, however, does not mean that whatever is mainstream is true. When figures like Dr. Anthony Fauci declare themselves to be literal embodiments of “the science,” you can be sure that the scientific method has nothing to do with it.
