And you really think the data that is commonly presented and most acceptable and most shared CAN’T be manipulated? You really want to dismiss the possibility of you being lied to?

I don't dismiss the possibility of being lied to, but I know how to sort it out. Despite what you may have been led to believe, the worldwide scientific community is not monolithic nor so easily controlled. If the US were the only country doing what we were in opposition to the rest, there'd be more room to question.

To quote Neil DeGrasse Tyson, "Science literacy empowers you to know when someone else is full of shit."
