Kangana may be wrong but I don't see what's wrong with her arguing with a scientist.
People can be self taught too, no not via private tuitions or reading from questionable sites on google. Through books, journals & lived experience.
Having a degree or doctorate does not make one more educated to others. It just means they have undertaken more formal education. Formal education =/= education overall. Btw, I am saying this as a PhD holder myself. Not that this matters, but just saying this pre-emptively in case some one calls me jealous of PhDs or scientists.😆
This is why I have trouble comprehending insults like 'half-educated'. Half-educated in what way? Plenty of so called 'educated' people in society now who have no interest in reading, or learning another language, or learning about things outside of their discipline. Like Aamir Khan's character said in 3 Idiots, such people are simply well trained and not well educated.
It's completely cringeworthy when these degree holders talk condescendingly to others, gives the rest of us a bad name.😵
This forum thrives on posting KR tweets and then discussing/mocking/hating it
If it gives them time pass and they are able to vent their hatred or frustration that she is allowed to post her thoughts and opinions on her social media handle, then so be it.
You are absolutely right about educational degree and education in general.
Even if her thoughts are not right, does not mean she can't put forth her thoughts and bring forward her opinions on the issue with the knowledge she has about them.
Every person will put forth their thoughts based on the knowledge they have about it and how they percieve it, and they should come forward and discuss it . This way it will broaden your horizon and also learn.
As I said we need to make KR tweets a stick thread coz she isn't going to stop and neither are her closet admirers who follow her tweet and are quick to post it here in an instant.
