I love science. I try to base my woldview on facts rather than myth and supposition, at least as much as any human can.

However, I absolutely abhor “science” like this, that takes something that I and many other people experience and insist that it doesn’t exist.

If even one person experiences what they term the “Uncanny Valley,” then it exists. End of story. Having seen many movies where the CGI made me say, “That is some creepy-ass not-human looking abomination that should be killed with fire,” I can assure you that the Uncanny Valley does in fact exist for me and apparently for millions of other people, too.

I absolutely cannot watch this movie for instance because every moment it makes me want to bust out grenades and AK-47s and destroy every horrifying pseudo-human on the screen.

This reminds of similar bad pseudoscience done in the past that attempted to show various things like that black people are innately inferior or that animals do not feel pain. Not to the extreme or seriousness, of course, but on the same spectrum.
