Not sure. Didn't watch the whole show and it was quite awhile ago. He did discuss his research regarding black holes.

That is George Washington's Wikipedia page. It includes his whole life, there is plenty of information in there that is unrelated to politically charged violence. You can at least do your cohorts the courtesy of having a pointed and deliberate discussion. Put in a little effort, it doesn't hurt.

I would venture to say that almost every group and/or sovereign nation's origin involves war/violence.

It is bad practice to post links without also providing quotes from the source to support your claim. You are wasting the other person's time.

I wasn't aware that publishing peer-reviewed work for anybody to read was "gatekeeping".

Yes. People conducting cutting-edge research should receive suitable compensation. Don't see a problem with that.

I understand the distaste toward conservatism with current events. If you think that conservative = bad, then you have a very narrow frame of mind.

Surprises me even more because it is VOA.

The kids who stop at highschool or go into a trade really don't get that level of problem solving and critical analysis.

I wouldn't be too hasty with the condescension towards the blue-collar working class. Problem solving and analysis is just a service at the end of the day, just like repairing an air conditioner. The value of both services also fluctuates.

There are reputable scientists that have been guests on Joe Rogan. Brian Cox was just on quite recently.
