Yep, that's how Stalin's science worked if you dared to think that you know better how the system should be run. For example, the USSR space program leader Korolev lost his teeth from malnutrition in a Gulag camp between his earlier rocketry work and sending Gagarin to space; and arguably the best Russian agronomist/geneticist Vavilov died in prison because he dared to criticize the pseudoscience of Lysenko, who was favored by Stalin at the time.

A scientist was going to receive a prize last week for his research showing that chloroquine doesn't help against COVID-19 and once the Bolsominions discovered it, the prize was cancelled (because the president is a proponent of "alternative" treatments and against vaccines -- he recently said they cause AIDS).
