Yeah, what Ruby said. I might also point to the difference between what a scientist and a politician does when giving a speech. A scientist attempts to explain the information that they’ve discovered to help understand some domain, and a politician decides what they want you to do and then looks to find information that gets you to do that thing, sometimes regardless of whether it’s true, so that they can make you do what they want. (Scientists don’t always live up to the ideal, but it’s a good ideal.)
