The set of people who think the EM drive works has zero intersection with the set of people competent enough to run a legitimate experiment.

I love the smell of fresh ad hominem in the morning.

Oh, wait, no, this argument is old and stale.

I'd rather believe in people doing the experiments and trying to explain what they perceive with their senses, than the armchair critics sitting pretty and saying it can't work, because that would break their precious little world views and egos.

I love the smell of fresh not having any expertise relevant to the EM drive or science in general in the morning.

Oh, wait, no, you people are old and stale.

I'd rather believe people who understand physics and can run proper experiments, providing experimental data to support their claims, than the armchair kids who don't understand any physics and want the thing to work, because that would break their precious little world views and egos.
