Reply to comment by dumnezero in Linguistic analysis of 177,296 Reddit comments sheds light on negative attitudes toward science by HeinieKaboobler

So, you think banishing all critique will convince people that scientists aren’t corrupt or politicized, eh?

Yes, comments on reddit are unreliable. Here, a bit less so, but still mostly worthless.

This comment is the problem exemplified, a snappy vast oversimplification that misses the point entirely. How did you read all of that abstract,think what you wrote was a suitable summary AND miss the irony in doing that??

Are you talking about my comment? I have to presume you must be responding to the comment to which I was responding (and have therefore misplaced your comment as though it were a response to mine), but alas… perhaps not?

Alas, I am responding to your comment.

Your presumption that I am responding to the comment to which you were responding is, alas in vein.

I am not responding to the comment to which you were responding, but to your comment (and have not therefore misplaced my comment as it is indeed a response to yours).

... Alas.

(Alas).
