Lol, I love when the woo community can’t argue in good faith, so have to artificially drag science to their level by calling it “scientism”.
Magic isn’t real because you can’t prove it’s real, and science isn’t opposed to magic, because magic isn’t on the playing board.
Scientism is the dogmatic belief that empirical science is the only source of knowledge. It’s not arguing in bad faith to say that this is a dangerously flawed ideology.
The inconvenient truth about scientific research is that 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘢 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧-𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵. Information requires a metaphysical framework in order to be interpreted in way that makes sense.
Lacking a philosophical foundation, scientism produces dangerous results, like when Hitler and his ilk explicitly referred to Darwinism as their justification for the Holocaust.
