In typical technical subjects, there's a lot of nuance and not everything is straightforward. there will be a cohort of people that dedicated their lives to studying this subject for years and decades and will readily admit there's a lot they don't know. No one will really make bold claims. No one pretends like they know everything there is to know.

then, when one of these subjects suddenly becomes political, a legion of people show up from out of nowhere that obviously weren't part of the community of original people that were studying it before it became political
>I KNOW EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS
>I CAN TAKE MY KNOWLEDGE OF THIS AND CONFIDENTLY SEE THE FUTURE
they're very strident and confident of everything they're saying. they'll eagerly hop into a screaming match about it. They think they know absolutely everything and there's nothing that could shake their belief of that.

It literally happens over night when something suddenly becomes political. It makes it difficult to take politics seriously about anything else when you see this happen to something you know a lot about.

I don't know anything about climate change. I'm not going to get in an argument about something that I know nothing about. This is how I deal with things outside of my knowledge.

As far as I know, people aren't really capable of knowing everything there is to know about everything. So they'll pick what they focus their effort in studying. If at all.
