in recent decades, the idea of “science” seems to have been subsumed to into politics. this is not some wild new idea. the soviets did it. mao did it. hitler did it, stalin, popes, pashas, and kings. it’s old as time. this is the straight down the fairway shot for dogmatically driven regimes passing off ideology as fact. “it’s not me pushing this on you, it’s the facts of the universe. it’s not manipulation by maxim, it’s natural law.” potent stuff, but it has about as much in common with actual baconian “scientific method” as haruspicy has with doppler weather.
but there is always a song and dance, always a doctrine, always a dogma, and it uses money and power to bend science around it and it has about as much tolerance for diversity of opinion as any other oppressive regime. so it silences dissent. and that can never be science.

When you are rushed naturally can't find so said that I couldn't find. Found as soon as she got back to her car and showed her before she drove off. I can't hate this country enough as I know that because I only ...
