Pop astronomer and “scientist” Neil deGrasse Tyson is back in the news, this time for claiming that human DNA has absolutely nothing to do with people’s gender.

In a video clip he posted to social media, Tyson explains how he takes pride in “communicating science” online. Watch as Tyson tries to explain how XX/XY chromosomes somehow play no role in determining whether a person is male or female – instead, people can simply wake up and decide that “today I feel like I am female or male:”

Neil deGrasse Tyson takes pride in “communicating science”. Here he explains that XX/XY chromosomes don’t determine if you are male or female, and instead, each day you can wake up and decide that “today I feel like I am female or male” ?

Modern “science” ebbs and flows based on feelings and emotions

For someone who has long claimed to be rooted in sound science, Tyson has adopted a feelings- and emotions-based approach to the transgender question. In his mind, science has no answers for determining gender – it is all based on how a person feels from day to day.

“Neil deGrasse Tyson leans to the mental and emotional aspect of sexuality while ignoring the physical,” warns Alexander Glumac (@SmokedGeezer) on X. “It’s not how you feel! It’s what you are!”

Even though he is a physicist rather than a biologist, Tyson feels as though he is qualified to make this determination because of the framed pieces of graduation paper that line his walls.

“In his defense, he is the dumbest physicist on the planet,” wrote “Tiger Cat” (@BackTo_1970) about Tyson on X.

“Sure, DNA doesn’t matter. I’m going to wake up tomorrow and decide I’m 7 foot tall,” joked another. “Or maybe I’ll decide to be Asian. It’s seriously pathetic that people who really know better play this game.”

Tyson’s brand of “science” tells people that whatever they feel is true, even if someone else’s “truth” differs dramatically. It is an anything-goes brand of postmodern subjective “truth” that is really in vogue right now as the establishment tries to normalize LGBT perversion.

“This is not based in science but a religion, an ideology,” another on X wrote about the transgender tripe that Tyson is peddling to his followers. “What is wrong with you? Instead of pandering to people and spreading false information you should’ve stayed quiet.”

Journalist Sharyl Attkisson chimed in as well to tell Tyson that he is flat-out wrong with his so-called “scientific” assessment of the trans question.

“XX and XY determine male and female, however if society (or some in it) wish to create new definitions and ideas, they are free to do so,” she tweeted. “Others are free not to adopt them. It’s no better to force tyranny on a majority than to force tyranny on a minority.”

It is a wonder how Tyson ever came to be the pop “scientist” that he now is. At Modernity, someone suggested that he is a diversity hire who is simply unqualified for the job.

“He had never done any significant individual work in physics other than a catalog any grad student could have done if he had chosen to do it,” this person wrote, citing a source described as “a real PhD astrophysicist at a world prominent lab.”
