The decision of not doing math is not math, unless we go on obscure neo-platonic paths and equate negation with presence. Recent history is full of failed models, eugenics itself came out of scientists’ books that some German former corporal later enabled. Eugenics was based on a (failed) model of the world. Chaotic despots have rampaged the lands with the help of technology and science just fine, people wouldn’t have reached Magadan against their own will without railways. Give me “dark ages” every day against millions of people in the Gulag. Also, the trans/Atlantic slave trade wouldn’t have been possible without navigation-related advances, many of them scientific in nature.
