Seriously. The guy demonstrates a shocking lack of understanding of how scientific studies work and what they are used
for. His conclusions are ridiculous, and his accusations are laughable.

It full of stuff like "Yeah, this one study concluded that there's not a link, but a preliminary study DONE BY THE SAME TEAM concluded that there MIGHT BE A LINK and was worth doing a real study on!!! Suspicious!!!"

It's total scientific trash, not even worth wiping my butt with.

What's amazing is he doesn't even see the irony with starting out with stories from the 60's about tobacco use and cancer, and talking about a single chain-smoking doctor who continued to be skeptical as mountains of SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH piled up proving that tobacco use causes cancer. Ha, he even says something like "Sound Familiar???"

Yes, yes it does, buddy. Confirmation bias is a real thing, and people can continue to be stupid while the scientific research piles up...
