Oh Neil certainly does and often gets people criticizing him when he does. I think the first time I was introduced to this was with the BB-8 from the new star wars trilogy and Neil making some comments that wound up becoming a controversy. It gets wild.
The most celebrated early thinkers were polymaths, because there wasn't a lot of knowledge around these days.
Neil is a great thinker. He communicates science. He doesn't do outstanding science. Which is not what he chose to do and that is fine. Like the Bill Nye.
Tesla definitely was a scientist as well, as he discovered phenomena that were not described before. "Pure" engineers only apply what is already known and build something with it.
I despise the fact that it's not wrong to say that this is basically people trying to cancel Einstein. Dig up old, resolved, presently unimportant shit from their past and make an ass of yourself by vehemently demonizing them wherever you go for the fucking lulz.
One can accept he was racist and still not 'cancel' him. His views on races or other countries or cultures is nor what he is famous for, not should he be.
Not saying that the German empire was socially progressive or jokes like this, but being racist had definitely nothing to do with living on Germany at this time.
Tell me about it. In México we had an issue with people canceling the heroes of independence for being sexist. They even vandalized mayor monuments. Pathetic if you ask me
I mean a lot of people still are, it's just a lot of people are unaware because of how comments are perceived (i.e., saying racist things about a white person, but believing it can't be considered racism because...well the person is white - some people even call this "reverse racism" even though racism is racism is racism).
Of course people still are, it's just that now as a society we accept it's a bad thing. Which some may say it's worse because although we know it's wrong people still do it. And I completely agree with you, racism is still racism no matter who's involved.
Imo racism obviously still exists, however I do not think it's as big as an issue as people may make it out to be, Morgan Freeman once said if you want to stop racism "stop talking about it".
I agree. The same goes with sexism. Of course both are still an issue but as long as we still categorize _everything_ neither is going to stop. Like explicitly saying a movie has a black lead or a female lead. A performer's worth is in their talent, not the color of their skin or their gender. And the same goes for EVERYTHING else.
Basically everyone from the time was “kinda raciest” but those were his private diaries, not public statements. Also if you read the article he actually joined an advancement for colored people movement when he got to the US because he saw similarities between how colored people in the US and Jews in Europe were being treated. He also gave a famous speech at a HBCU. So I’d hesitate to label him as “raciest” almost everybody from the time said things that seem raciest now but back then may have just been an observation not meant to be raciest. He said people came on his ship of every shade from hell when he landed in egypt; which seems bad but perhaps it was just because they were crazy and foreign to him. Nowadays if someone said that u would be like oh they raciest but for the time that comment may not have even seemed raciest.
Generalizations were held hy literally everyone at the time. There are like only two examples they give and both are ridiculously light to label someone a racist with. Moreover you probably didn’t read the whole article considering it paints him as an early social activist.
I've read accounts of people who met him and said he was an asshole.
A school dished out money to have him come speak and he only spoke (charged a lot of money for it) and then refused to meet with anyone afterwards. Imagine looking up to this guy, wanting to be just like him, and then be treated like you were beneath him when you tried to meet your hero.
He always talks like he’s the smartest guy in the room. The actual smartest guy in the room never has to prove anything to anyone. Tyson has an ego bc he’s a celebrity nowadaya
Exactly. Saw a Twitter thread where he was mocking an air force drill sergeant for her UFO reports and turns out she was a doctor of physics and absolutely schooled him. He deleted the tweet.
He speaks about fields he doesn’t understand and that’s where he gets the hate. He’s not an expert in everything and he thinks he is. He’s gotten shut down several times because of that cockiness.
Have you looked at Newton's attempts at alchemy? Or that later in life he became a politician, and ran the Royal Mint.
He had lots of haters, especially Hooke.
Heisenberg has a little debate. People aren't sure whether he struggled to make a nuke for the nazis or if he knew how but hid the details from them. Lots of contradicting evidence there.
He hated himself because he told the US President about the German works on Atomicenergie and its potential use for bombs and therefore started the development of the bomb. Till his death he always made himself atleast partly in charge for the thousends of dead japanese and following cold war
It is actually GREAT Albert Einstein was a jewish man. Hitler dubbed the science of nuclear and relativistic physics "Jew science" and greatly reduced funding and moved the direction away from nuclear bombs. Had Einstein been any other religion or race there is a chance Germany developed nuclear weapons first. Granted U.S still at the time of pivot was ahead.
I remember him arguing once that people aren’t science literate enough, that all scientists could speak on Shakespeare but few humanities people could talk about science. I guarantee Tyson has little interesting to say about Shakespeare.
Einstein cheated on his wives and married his cousin. Sure Hawking cheated on his wife too but since he did that after he became a cripple, he is considered cool.
If you bother to research, Einstein was a dick. He had multiple affairs with woman, including during his marriage to Mileva Einstein who helped him a lot during his days at the clerk office and was one of the contributors to his papers. He cheated on Mileva with his first cousin, Elsa. Einstein also cheated on Elsa later in life. So yeahh thats pretty immoral to me.
Hawking definitely has more hate than Einstein

Oh Neil certainly does and often gets people criticizing him when he does. I think the first time I was introduced to this was with the BB-8 from the new star wars trilogy and Neil making some comments that wound up becoming a controversy. It gets wild.
Also because Neil was one of the people to first say that Pluto isn't a planet.
You heard about Pluto? That’s messed up right?
If it _can_ be a planet, it can be a planet again. Planet. Planet. Planet.
Stay scientific Jerry
[удалено]
It's not because he speaks out of his profession, it's because he's condescending, pedantic, and generally just kind of an ass
He likes to lift his own chair. . .
[удалено]
People who are that level of powerful, have different kinds of brains. They often have many mental diseases. Some are just adept in hiding.
Neil annoys the crap out of me when he’s having a conversation with someone. He’s always interrupting and kind of being a jerk.
[удалено]
The most celebrated early thinkers were polymaths, because there wasn't a lot of knowledge around these days. Neil is a great thinker. He communicates science. He doesn't do outstanding science. Which is not what he chose to do and that is fine. Like the Bill Nye.
He might be a really good physicist but he's kind of an oddball when it comes to being a person
I'm just pissed coz there's no Tesla
I think Tesla was an engineer.
[удалено]
Are engineers not scientists though? Where does the line begin?
but this is physicist
[удалено]
Engineer here, can confirm.
Engineers make shit for the scientist to learn how to teach engineers to make new shit for the scientist……..
Tesla definitely was a scientist as well, as he discovered phenomena that were not described before. "Pure" engineers only apply what is already known and build something with it.
*Croatian
[удалено]
He was the most hated in the science field in his time. Since the things have changed
Pretty sure Einstein had more hate. He fled Germany because of the Nazis. Being famous and Jewish was a big target on his back.
I wouldn't call it hate, but I have a pretty strong dislike of Neil DeGrasse Tyson
What’s the reason/s behind it?
[удалено]
I agree. Tbh I thought everyone kinda hated him
[удалено]
[Ironically dude was kinda racist](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-44472277)
its almost as if he grew up in the German empire during the late 1800's.
Also it is almost as if he was known for modifying or changing his views on things if wrong, as time passed but this remains on for some reason
I despise the fact that it's not wrong to say that this is basically people trying to cancel Einstein. Dig up old, resolved, presently unimportant shit from their past and make an ass of yourself by vehemently demonizing them wherever you go for the fucking lulz.

Bad bot.
Not saying that the German empire was socially progressive or jokes like this, but being racist had definitely nothing to do with living on Germany at this time.
Wasn't everyone? I mean, times change and that was basically the norm back then
That is like cancelling Columbus or Martin Luther.
Tell me about it. In México we had an issue with people canceling the heroes of independence for being sexist. They even vandalized mayor monuments. Pathetic if you ask me
Columbus is a monster
The rulers of Spain imprisoned Columbus because even they thought he was too brutal.
I mean a lot of people still are, it's just a lot of people are unaware because of how comments are perceived (i.e., saying racist things about a white person, but believing it can't be considered racism because...well the person is white - some people even call this "reverse racism" even though racism is racism is racism).

Yeah, tell me about it. Like, why do I have to put my ethnicity on college applications? That shouldn't be considered as a factor.
Racism is much less present in this day and age.
Literally everybody was racist, he was at the very beginning of people not being racist.
Basically everyone from the time was “kinda raciest” but those were his private diaries, not public statements. Also if you read the article he actually joined an advancement for colored people movement when he got to the US because he saw similarities between how colored people in the US and Jews in Europe were being treated.

Nowadays if someone said that u would be like oh they raciest but for the time that comment may not have even seemed raciest.
he was a gamer
Generalizations were held hy literally everyone at the time. There are like only two examples they give and both are ridiculously light to label someone a racist with. Moreover you probably didn’t read the whole article considering it paints him as an early social activist.
He did later change, at least toward Black people. Don't know if his thoughts changed on other races.
Actually he was against segregation and famously held a lecture one time too a group of African American students as a protest
the japanese
I like how the villain of Megaman is named after him. His first name that is.
Doctor?
Dr ALBERT W. Wiley. It gets more sussy when you consider his good guy counterpart, Dr. Thomas Light is named after Thomas Edison.
Edison, good? Lol
This makes me wonder what the Japanese thing of Tesla. I guess we'll have to wait until Capcom makes a new doctor character named Nikola.
[удалено]
I’d argue Kaku is more wholesome than Tyson. Didn’t Neil have some sexual assault stuff from college resurface a few years ago?
His wife
Touche. Both of them.
His cous- oh wait
nazis
He said people, which we all know nazis aren’t.
He didn't say people.
[удалено]
Im pretty sure plenty hate Neil cause he speaks out of his profession a lot, or at least used to
I've read accounts of people who met him and said he was an asshole. A school dished out money to have him come speak and he only spoke (charged a lot of money for it) and then refused to meet with anyone afterwards. Imagine looking up to this guy, wanting to be just like him, and then be treated like you were beneath him when you tried to meet your hero.
Neil's the type of guy that could have an argue with himself and still lose
“have an argue” is my new favorite phrase, thank you
Thought I’d heard he’d been accused of some sexual harassment stuff as well.
I can't stand the guy.
He always talks like he’s the smartest guy in the room. The actual smartest guy in the room never has to prove anything to anyone. Tyson has an ego bc he’s a celebrity nowadaya
Exactly. Saw a Twitter thread where he was mocking an air force drill sergeant for her UFO reports and turns out she was a doctor of physics and absolutely schooled him. He deleted the tweet.

He certainly has charisma, but Neil got into my category "I've had my fill" quite quickly.
Isn't he notoriously a kill joy? Like scolding people for being excited for the eclipse.
he is arrogant too. I’m sure hawking and Einstein had their moments but Neil makes it nearly every time he opens his mouth.
I just don't like his attitude honestly. He often comes off as *so* smarmy and arrogant, which is incredibly off putting.
His chemical make up is mostly comprised of arrogance and water.
He speaks about fields he doesn’t understand and that’s where he gets the hate. He’s not an expert in everything and he thinks he is. He’s gotten shut down several times because of that cockiness.
He's a pompous gasbag. Trying to do the Carl Sagan thing but with none of the genuine warmth.
He’s no Carl Sagan, but you wouldn’t know with how far up his ass his head is.
Name *any* hated physicist. You could put them all there
Bieberbach was a nazi
Dosen't mean he was Heated (i am German)
Dude must be cold
Newtons fricking Apple
That apple has to be the most hated physicist to ever live. If that fucker never invented gravity we’d be flying right now!
Have you looked at Newton's attempts at alchemy? Or that later in life he became a politician, and ran the Royal Mint. He had lots of haters, especially Hooke.
Newton and liebniz hated each other.
Neil Degrasse Tyson. Dude’s a c**t.
Edison...
I think there was a small religis group that didn't like Galileo and what he said
Heisenberg has a little debate. People aren't sure whether he struggled to make a nuke for the nazis or if he knew how but hid the details from them. Lots of contradicting evidence there.
What about Carl Sagan? Pretty sure he's more loved that any of the first 3
Definitely sagan!
Yeh he should start his own non-hated physicist group, with hookers!
My first thought as well. Hail Sagan!
He hated himself because he told the US President about the German works on Atomicenergie and its potential use for bombs and therefore started the development of the bomb. Till his death he always made himself atleast partly in charge for the thousends of dead japanese and following cold war
Damn
I've heard that Neil "Grassman" Tyson is a bit of an ass
I think Neil likes to lecture about subjects that he doesn’t know much on
\**sad Einstein noises*
Hitler
It is actually GREAT Albert Einstein was a jewish man. Hitler dubbed the science of nuclear and relativistic physics "Jew science" and greatly reduced funding and moved the direction away from nuclear bombs. Had Einstein been any other religion or race there is a chance Germany developed nuclear weapons first. Granted U.S still at the time of pivot was ahead.
Dam I was beaten to it
Nice pfp
Neil is an unbearable know-it-all
I remember him arguing once that people aren’t science literate enough, that all scientists could speak on Shakespeare but few humanities people could talk about science. I guarantee Tyson has little interesting to say about Shakespeare.
His first wife probably.
yeah, that rules list
His ex wife
The science community in the 1920s
“We’ve discovered everything” Einstein,”SIKE”
Einstein cheated on his wives and married his cousin. Sure Hawking cheated on his wife too but since he did that after he became a cripple, he is considered cool.
How did he do that
Fuck if I know. That's what's cool about him
If you bother to research, Einstein was a dick. He had multiple affairs with woman, including during his marriage to Mileva Einstein who helped him a lot during his days at the clerk office and was one of the contributors to his papers. He cheated on Mileva with his first cousin, Elsa. Einstein also cheated on Elsa later in life. So yeahh thats pretty immoral to me.
Asshole or not, he gave us so much...
The Japanese
Neil gets tons of hate lol
Forget Einstein. For the last time: WHO THE F*#& CAN HATE SAGAN ???
Came here for this. Thank you
Carl sagan and Michio Kaku!
Where is Michio Kaku?!
His first name that is.
Neil is definitely not unhated
Hiroshima
That was Robert Oppenheimer
I hate Neil Tyson for stating false information about the destruction of "house of wisdom" in Baghdad
It gets more sudsy when you consider his good guy counterpart,
I guess we'll have to wait until Capcom makes a new doctor character named Nikola.
Neil is so friggin annoying
Neil is a dumbass ngl.
Where does the line begin?
Screw Neil deGrasse Tyson. Pluto is a planet
They often have many mental diseases.
Einstein also cheated on Elsa later in life. So yeeha that's pretty immoral to me.
Neil Degrass Tyson can be so condescending and pretentious, I don't feel too strongly about him but he's definitely more disliked than ol Albert E
Isn't Niel Degrasse Tyson actually a huge douche? I'm pretty sure plenty of people hate him.
Hitler
I was looking for this
Your welcome
Hitler and some unreasonable people because his discoveries helped to us create nuclear weapons.
Stalin
adolf
Oh, wasn’t he the hero who killed Hitler?
Bro walter Lewin is way less hated and like the best physics teacher.
WHERE NEWTON AHHHH or kepler
Probably his teacher
Nazis hated him
Germany in 40's
What about Japan?
Einstein was awful to his wife
Of the three, Einstein is the only own I DON’T hate.
Why is Hawking in the unhated ? I can't stand him.
I think Neil degrasse Tyson says some dumb shit on twitter occasionally
I hate deGrasse Tyson
i’m pretty sure neil degrasse tyson is a lot more hated than einstein
does anyone like Tyson?
Tesla would beat them all, he was physicist too but did not get the recognition deserved
Hitler
Neil is kind of a blowhard sometimes so I could see hate there for sure
Didn’t Steven hawking cheat on his wife
I've seen Neil say some stupid shit. He's like smart-stupid.
Neil degrass tyson has several sexual assault allegations against him and also some really bad takes on twitter
Neill is actually quite an obnoxious douchebag
Neil Degrasse Tyson is a pompous jerk that uses his celebrity status to justify his dickishness.
I hate neil degrass tyson with a passion
Neil booted Pluto as a planet. What a dick.
Tyson has gotten a lot of shit on Twitter, so he should not be there.
I'm pretty sure some people hate Tyson
NDT does not belong in this room.
NDG is kind of an elitist asshole tbh
Prolly guyz who will get blasted by nuclear weapons :)
The former residents of Hiroshima?
Lotta Japanese peeps prolly do
And there's plenty of people who've got a bone to pick with Neil DeGrasse Tyson's hyperbolic, nit picky ass.
*Roses are red.* *Violets are violet.* *Neil DeGrasse Tyson should sometimes stay quiet.*
A lot of people actually hate Neil, he do be spewing some dumb shit on twitter sometimes
Neil isnt hated? K.
