Because each of us does not have enough time to validate all the science ourselves so we end up trusting the results provided by other-selves.
I was looking at Twitter yesterday and saw the researchers on nutrition whom I was debating with in the past still arguing with each others 12 years later on. Each still having no trust in the other side's data.
So how do we help healing the trust issues?
We help by providing valid and truthful examples from the exact middle point of their arguments. This has a fair chance of expanding the viewpoint of those who are willing and ready to do so. Then from the middle point it is easier to approach the opposition. That being said, not too many are actually willing to see the wider picture, and will rather continue fruitless arguing for the sake of arguing. Then we bid them farewell and wish them well on their (un)chosen path.
