Who are anti-horsemen of science?
The anti-horsemen of science are individuals, public figures, physicians, and even self-styled “renegade” scientists, and organisations who deliberately distort scientific findings and use rhetorical sleight of hand to promote pseudoscience, false claims, and conspiracy theories. The term is a deliberate inversion of the “Horsemen of Science,” originally referring to Christopher Hitchens ⚰, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett ⚰, and Sam Harris.
Recently, a new wave of science communicators has emerged, modern “horsemen of science” like Dave Farina, Dr. Wilson (Debunk the Funk), Anton Petrov, Aron Ra, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, Sean Carroll, Eric Peterson (Planet Peterson Podcast), Matt Dillahunty, and others. These figures carry forward the legacy of critical thinking and evidence-based inquiry, championing scientific exploration and reasoned discourse.

Wer sind die Anti-Reiter der Wissenschaft?
Die Anti-Reiter der Wissenschaft sind Einzelpersonen, öffentliche Persönlichkeiten, Ärzte und sogar selbsternannte „Abtrünnige“ unter den Wissenschaftlern und Organisationen, die wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse bewusst verdrehen und rhetorische Tricks einsetzen, um Pseudowissenschaft, falsche Behauptungen und Verschwörungstheorien zu fördern. Der Begriff ist eine bewusste Umkehrung der „Reiter der Wissenschaft“, womit ursprünglich Christopher Hitchens ⚰, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett ⚰ und Sam Harris gemeint waren.
In letzter Zeit ist eine neue Welle von Wissenschaftskommunikatoren entstanden, moderne „Reiter der Wissenschaft“ wie Dave Farina, Dr. Wilson (Debunk the Funk), Anton Petrov, Aron Ra, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, Sean Carroll, Eric Peterson (Planet Peterson Podcast), Matt Dillahunty und andere. Diese Persönlichkeiten führen das Erbe des kritischen Denkens und der evidenzbasierten Forschung fort und setzen sich für wissenschaftliche Entdeckungen und eine vernunftgeleitete Diskussion ein.
