<p>Daily Wire host Michael Knowles stumped a leftist at the University of California, Berkeley, who disagreed with Knowles’ past criticisms of modern science, especially relating to transgenderism and climate change.</p>
<p>Knowles, who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/michael-knowles-reveals-the-lefts-ignorance-about-hamas-october-7-attack-in-speech-at-uc-berkeley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spoke</a> at the liberal university on the anniversary of Hamas’ brutal attack on Israel, took questions from the crowd and was asked by a student about his past statements.</p>
<p>“In your show, I see you often say that science is mostly fake in regards to transgenderism, climate change, cigars that might give you cancer,” the student said.</p>
<p>Knowles replied, saying, “Science is mostly good. Natural philosophy is good, but the notion that a little boy is actually a girl, which we call ‘science’ today … that is fake.”</p>
<p>The student shot back, arguing that “the most educated researchers” he has talked to “all seem to disagree” with Knowles’ view on modern science.</p>
<p>“So, how do you pursue evidence-based policy if you ignore so much of the evidence, or do you flip the script like your co-worker says and put your feelings over facts?” he asked.</p>
<p>“Which studies do you mean?” Knowles pressed.</p>
<p>“The fake ones, I guess,” the student responded.</p>
<p>“Can you cite the studies you’re talking about? … Could you name even one of them off the top of your head?” Knowles asked.</p>
<p>“No, you know, I just threw them all out. They’re all fake, right?” the student quipped.</p>

<p>“You&#8217;re being sarcastic because it&#8217;s the last refuge of someone who has no answer,” Knowles shot back.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire host then blasted leftists who cite studies they haven’t read to back up their political ideology.</p>
<p>“That’s my complaint with modern science is that it is fake,” Knowles said. “And you’re proving to me that it’s fake. You’re not even relying on it. You’re relying on a kind of gut intuition, which is really just a half-baked religious sense that a boy can be a girl and the sun god is going to kill us all in 12 years or whatever AOC said 15 years ago. And, unfortunately, it’s not grounded in any serious philosophy or theology or, certainly, anthropology, but it’s also not even grounded in modern science.”</p>
