Thats what usually happens when we overlook certain things and the lower class pay for it. It’s because of a lack of communication and understanding. The world is not a conference room where officials just agree to such things and when they are put into action the long term effects it will have. That’s usually what happens when it comes to the economy, politics, local communities, charity organizations, religion, historical events, advertising, popular culture, psychology, propaganda, science, , etc. critical thinking is a very significant factor for these issues. It’s not just some wild theory or a butterfly effect, it’s everyday life. It’s common sense.
"Unforseen consequences occur" Pretty much what he had done in Fallen Kingdom. The Dinosaurs would have never been spread around the globe if he wouldn't have put his two sentences in the U.S. Senate meeting.
Watching Jurassic- Dominion. During Ian’s presentation scene, no one is listening - everyone is checking out how HOT Jeff Goldblum is!! Look at their eyes and mouths watering.. Jeff is a fine wine- better with age.
Undergrads actually paying attention to the talk and the talk being about superficial platitudes instead of Malcolm’s research in non-linear dynamics shows the shallowness of the screenwriters in terms of doing actual research on how these things usually go, plus it’s ridiculously boring drivel. The talk Malcolm gives in Chricton’s The Lost World on chaos theory and the dynamics of extinction events is far closer to how actual scientific talks are like, they should have borrowed from that one.
I hate to apply this word in general, but if the shoe fits: . . . You are plain typical. Dr. Malcolm's bellwether speech is the could/should speech from "Jurassic Park." What makes him so perspicacious and special is that he doesn't think like a typical scientist who is unable to pull his eye from the microscope. Herein he mentions explicitly Los Alamos and implicitly mentions the modifications of genes of our food supply, which has proven to unleash manifold questionable consequences, ranging from overpopulation, tendency toward monoculture, the reduction in the number of small farms (which, if nothing else, has an economical impact), to the increased rates of autism due to the pesticide poisoning which all homo sapiens on earth are experiencing now. Just because most scientists at Los Alamos didn't care if they wiped out the entire planet for the rather pathetic Science-at-Religion, doesn't mean that all scientists--not the good ones anyway--are myopic twits. The fact that the majority of your lot never stop pushing the button because they can, doesn't mean that all scientists do, or that to hesitate, to question, to conserve is in any way a detriment, scientifically or intellectually. So, to reply to you in a word: typical.
@@SaberRexZealot Some of them do sure, but most don’t. That’s my experience from teaching at the university level for over ten years as well as my time as a student, the experiences of academic colleagues and so on.
