The 1600s version of "trying to explain science to someone who's already made up their mind." Poor Galileo, presenting revolutionary evidence that the Earth orbits the Sun while the Church is wrapped in its geocentric blanket of dogma, giving him that "did you really just say that?" look. Nothing says scientific progress like being threatened with torture for basic orbital mechanics. The man literally had the receipts for heliocentrism and still got house arrest for life. Medieval cancel culture was no joke.
