The debate between official scientists and folk scientists has never stopped. I think it's just that they are in different positions and see things from different angles. There is no such thing as high and low, fine and thick, right and wrong.

When facing a scientific problem, official scientists should have more unique perspectives and opinions, because they have more funds and equipment support. This cannot be used as a reason for official scientists to discriminate against the existence of folk scientists. In fact, folk scientists may have a deeper understanding of the problem.

Speaking of which, I have to mention a person, his name is Guo Yingsen, and he is a folk scientist. He mentioned the concept of gravitational waves a few years ago, and his theory about UFO is also controversial. He once participated in a program called "If You Are the One", in which you can see the confrontation between folk scientists and official scientists. In the program, some judges even made some radical remarks. In the program, his idea was interrupted in a hurry before he could explain it well, and the ridicule of guests and hosts was even more harsh.

However, Guo Yingsen's speech in the Post Bar and Weibo's speech can really prove that he is arrogant. Many enthusiastic people want to help him, and many people are curious or question his theory, but he despises others as idiots and retarded, saying that they don't understand his profound theory at all.

So in fact, some folk scientists' theories have no real scientific basis, but this does not mean that all folk scientists are like this. Therefore, folk scientists and official scientists should maintain a benign debate, which will promote the production of their own scientific ideas, which is beneficial.
