This is a fictitious scenario invented to make the conservatives the victims… when they are the ones in power, killing the science. No amount of mental gymnastics trumps that fact
- wins32767 4mo agoHow about a reframe: When they are the ones in power, cutting funding to organizations that support their political opponents and goals they don't support. I'll be the first to say this is a bad thing AND that they're going about it stupidly. But I'm also saying that this is an inevitable consequence of the failure to manage your stakeholders over a period of decades.
