Of course, the trouble is that this cuts both ways. Because "science" is associated with trustworthy, evidence-based statements and "activism" isn't, one technique I've seen is people with an audience and a political axe to grind declaring a particular niche theory that goes against the consensus to be "science", and any criticism of the scientific merits of this to be an example of "activists" attacking "science".
