Considering the fact that neither Tyson or Nye are educating anyone about science and are instead trying to lend a false veneer of science to socio-political views kinda makes your point irrelevant.

Isn't the majority of Tyson's output the popular science stuff rather than the social stuff? I have to admit I've never watched Bill Nye. The fact that he said things you don't like about race doesn't make his science irrelevant. It's not like we're inundated with science education, groups of drunken eejits blowing shit up on YouTube notwithstanding.
Like I said, there's plenty of people in front of him to dislike if I feel the need.

I know little about Nye other than that he's part clown. Tyson writes lots of popular science books and columns, and occasionally rankles when he speaks to the intersection of culture and science. Most recently in his side-taking against those who think there are biological sexes, or that genetic males shouldn't be competing with genetic females. He talks about that stuff in podcasts, but I doubt writes about them. It is clear to most people who follow along with his discussions, that he is a reliable parrot of the progressive popular culture narratives, and often those narratives are actually at odds with a principled science based perspective. He chooses popular culture over science and reason, when forced to choose. You can roll your eyes at those who take exception to that as you please.

Come here to check on things and see nothing is changed except my ever increasing burning desire to meet Horace in person to knock the dog shit out that fills his cranium. What a piece of crap you are Horace. Can’t wait till y’all have to crawl back under your fucking rocks after Trump goes to prison forever. I just don’t understand how the few decent people that still reside here put up with this daily bullshit. Twisted brains still rule the roost here.

I would pay almost good money to see you try to beat the dog shit out of L'il Horace.

You know where to find me. I live in CA, up towards Berkeley. I took a short drive up to Napa and will be staying there for a couple days. Come on up and let’s settle this. I’ll be the tall white guy.

Maybe he should know.
He was a buddy of Thurmond.

As I recall, early Joe B was not exactly a champion of black rights.

It's a well known psychological phenomena that those with the most inward hatred of "others" such as those with black skin, will, when in a social context where hatred of racism is advantageous, turn into the most virulent of anti-racists. I often recall the recent study where white liberals talked down to minorities in a measurable manner, to a greater extent than conservatives. To the liberals, they are being virtuous by making sure the minority can understand them, so they don't use big words.

Nor gay marriage. He changes with the political wind. Don't forget it was a Democrat President in the 90s who instituted a policy where gays in the military shouldn't tell others that they could suck a golf ball through a garden hose.
