Get the <.7.9.7.6.>I Have No Guilty Disrepaired Consensus Of An Individual<.7.9.7.6.> mug.The paradox that while consensus is science's method for settling disputes, the process of reaching it is deeply social, psychological, and vulnerable to groupthink, institutional inertia, and external pressure. How do we know a consensus (e.g., on climate change) reflects true scientific convergence rather than a manufactured or coerced agreement? The hard problem is trusting the collective voice while knowing it can be shaped by factors other than pure evidence.
Example: "He agreed climate change was real but had a hard problem with the scientific consensus. 'Was it reached by pure evidence,' he wondered, 'or by grant agencies defunding skeptics, journals rejecting contrary papers, and a social zeitgeist that punished dissent? I believe the conclusion, but I don't trust the groupthink factory.'" Hard Problem of Scientific Consensus
