Nobody disregards all experts, even if that's what they say. They only apply their scorn to experts who say things they don't want to accept. But because we disagree about what we'll accept, we establish different understandings of the world regarding the things we really care about. And then we obviously think the people who understand the world so totally differently are idiots or evil and don't want to associate with them. Avoiding this downward spiral is why #LiberalValues are important.
