I feel Tyson cares more about the fame and being right instead of actually teaching
Man I knew this would bring out the trolls.
How is an arbitrary list of people able to rile folks up so much? If you think Green or Cox deserves a place on a list over some of these other people: MAKE YOUR OWN LIST, you could do it with just as little effort as it takes to criticize someone else for contributing content.
Don’t know why your getting butthurt over ppl critiquing content on a website thats built around creating and engaging with content and their creators.
This is like getting pissed ppl don’t like your painting after hanging it in gallery. You don’t want ppls opinion leave your shit off the internet
Anyone criticizing with “why do you put x on there but not y” allow me to introduce you to creating your own original content, you can put whoever you want on a picture! It’s within your power!
I suppose that might direct the attention of people like you towards yourselves, and that would be awful wouldn’t it?
Maybe think on the previous line a bit before you post your criticism, and ask yourself why you haven’t made and posted the list the way you’d like it to be.
Reminds me of people harassing the Ladybird browser devs for declining a PR that changed “he” to “they” in the build steps. If you really cared, you would make meaningful contributions to the project before virtue signaling on a text file
Edit: as an aside, I know of an open source project that is only one or two steps away from being affiliated with Nazis. A transgender woman started contributing and now all those Nazi friends respect her. That’s how you actually change minds - not by Reeing with zero effort.
I think Hank Green deserves this better than Neil
The only guy I like on this is Bob Ross and Mr Rogers
I don’t even know who the guy is besides “want”
ndt has sexual assault allegations
bill nye is a engineer not a scientist and the science guy is only a stand up comedy act
So, Is Bill Nye a Real Scientist?
While Nye is absolutely an engineer, the Science Council defines a scientist as “someone who systematically gathers and uses research and evidence, to make hypotheses and test them, to gain and share understanding and knowledge.”

A program with an actual scientist is Scope with Dr Rob
And it’s still a comedy act, bill nye is qualified to be an engineer, not a scientist
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_James_Bell
Robert James Bell is a qualified scientist
Trusting bill nye to teach science is like trusting your uncle bob who thinks he knows science to teach science
nye should be teaching engineering, not science
Bill nye isn’t a scientist but he still taught science and neither Ross nor rogers are scientists either so what’s the point of making that distinction then immediately ignoring it?
This is a great poster. Thank you!
(But perhaps embarrassingly, I don’t recognise the top left guy.)
