Governments and their figurehead „scientists“ like Fauci have rightfully lost all our trust by contradicting the nonsense and lies they spew and moving the goalposts every other day, under the weak guise of „developing/new knowledge“.
- mdp2021 5y agoIn fact, it's not really "scientists": scientists "search" (put together puzzle pieces, check hypotheses), they do not climb on pedestals claiming close social relation with The Truth. It's political agents looking for excuses. You appear, with that formulation, to have missed the paragraph just above: > And scientists have been attacked in new ways and with new methods by politicians who are exploiting social media and long-tested methods of indoctrination to undermine scientific authority on issues ranging from vaccines in the midst of a pandemic to the impending devastation of climate change In a stub (unfortunately), the author claimed that the role of science is under political attack. Very clearly (in some regions), there as been a devastating blow against civilization attempting through narratives for propaganda to make of science a fideistic sect, a doctrine - its opposite.
