Of course science flies in the face of democracy. Democracy gives all the power to individual subjective opinion. Hence the battle against emotional bias, fake news, and propaganda tactics which all work wonders in a democracy. This battle is fought with objective facts, which are only attainable by science. Science is the only tool specifically designed to weed out falsehoods and reach an objective consensus based on how nature works. How is this "subject to falsehoods just like any other human endeavor"? There is no substitute for science. We all seem to agree that democracy only works when the population is informed. Well, are we going to inform ourselves with the beliefs and tweets of those which we grant moral authority? Or science?
