Did it promote skepticism and science though? It showed them being applied, sure. In the end though, the show was always on Mulder's side of the "truth". Of course it also kind of said "Scully's work is important" but it was always assumed that her view of any situation would ultimately be the wrong one. Her science-oriented methods break down when it comes to (in the broadest sense) "supernatural" phenomena - because they are, by definition even, outside science.

Had a phase where I read a bunch of Wiki articles about Marvel comics. This caused a few awkward moments where I'd throw in a random comment in a conversation I was overhearing but then wasn't able to follow it up with anything substantial with my comic book expert interlocutors who'd actually read what they were talking about.

I learnt that USians have to do this from movies (because you guys have weird plumbing, I think?). Does this person not watch movies?

I'm so confused.

What are you quoting? The article linked is from July last year and doesn't include your quoted paragraphs.

agreements reached in mid-last year between the new administration of U.S. President Trump and Chancellor Merz.

Huh? They agreed to this months before the US election?
