Bill Nye is no scientist. At most he did a really cheesy kids science show in the 90s, and then he fell off the radar for over a decade.
Then the kids then that became the hipsters now, “ironically” made him popular again. Now he runs around being a bitter little leftist hiding behind the nebulous term “scientist” to make it seem like his outlandish views have some sort of official backing.
He is the “science guy”, so it has to be true, right?
He and that other internet creation, Neil Degrass Tyson, are 2 people I immediately ignore whenever they start talking.
Makes me miss Mr. Wizard. He would have never allowed himself to be cheapened like this for political agendas.
Neither is Ken Ham.

I doubt that Nye's political agenda is any less pronounced than Ham's agenda is.
He is an entertainer. He started out as a regular on a late night Seattle Comedy TV Show... Almost Live!. His most popular role at that time was “Speed walker”, a superhero who walked to crimes in progress. The Science Guy thing started out as a joke that stuck. He corrected the Almost Live host's pronunciation of gigawatt and the host retorted, “Who do you think you are—Bill Nye the Science Guy?”
He has a bachelor of science degree from 1977 and no other formal education since that time that I am aware of. He is just a typical Seattle Know-it-all liberal. I have been dealing with them all of my life
