I'm burnt out on mentions of "#sCiEnCe!".

The people who shout it from the top of their lungs are the ones who least understand or appreciate what science is. Instead, they have a religious-like faith put into perceived authority, and cover it with the term "science".

You're confusing SCIENTISM for science.

SCIENTISM:

A blind faith dogma in the benevolence of corporations making obscene profits from their allegedly safe but very secret and privatized so-called "science".

Authentic science is a transparent discovery and open verification process (not settled) of elimination based on a hypothesis. Since many factors may corrupt this process it must be openly verifiable to eliminate junk science from legitimate results.
