"scientific inquiry is prone to the eternal rules of human social life: deference to the charismatic, herding toward majority opinion, punishment for deviance, and intense discomfort with admitting to error."

We have a few sheeple here on booktalk, most notably Interbane who unabashedly admits consensu science is the way to go. The bandwagon to ride gleefully.

This is ideology and a misuse of science.
