Everything's a tool, you can hit a nail with a hammer or crack your own head its how you use it and not the tools problem unless its specifically made for doing an evil thing like the evilinator or somethin . also being a neuroscientist doesn't instantly make anyone right people like to spread their opinions as facts because they have some kind of authority so don't be sheep and use your own head sometimes which most people clearly don't do as we can see in the upvotes.
