most of it is willful ignorance. you can debunk or present fact after fact and they’ll never change their minds. what i find most discouraging though is empirical fact/peer reviewed science/expertise is so readily dismissed yet in general these same enthusiastic “skeptics” that demand more evidence readily believe the fairy tales of religion for which there never was and never will be any evidence.
