Pinchers and dobermans likely. Well at least we agree on that one. Hitler
owned dogs. So what is the connection here? I though fascists like dogs....?
We agree with the fallacious argument. But what if people are in positions
of power and believe that environmentalists are Nazis's? What if Budiansky
was a professor and tried to ferret out students who he figured were being
swayed by the cult of Diana? Would he naturally give them A's or would his
'emotions' and 'anger' take over in his evaluations and then give them B's?
I met many a science professor who was biased & not always consciously
either. Some of them are paid to be biased so as to conduct implicitly
'mandated science'.
What if a professor of veterinary medicine discovered that a first year
student was involved in animal rights causes, and was strongly against this
student who was protesting the 'inhumane treatment' of animals?
I know that you will answer 'so what' and instead I will respond 'well why
not'?
I like most dogs too. That is where the term dogmatic comes from did you
know? Dogs
