Exactly! People seem to want solid science, and yet they want it instantly. Which is impossible when you want to prove and re-prove your hypothesis in the first place, like scientists are supposed to do. There is a reason it takes years to make theories fact with science.
I almost want to say that people's complacency is worse with how they want instant answers and instant gratification in everything without actually fact-checking anything. Though I suppose that's natural selection at its best considering if enough people buy into the false science and false reports, it might weed some of them out of the gene pool? And I'm only half-joking with that comment.
