The left obliterated the word science this year. It has about as much meaning now as a tatted up, pink-haired millennial screaming the word racist.

So - all the Trump and right-wing disinformation and misinformation about the evils of science in 2020 was from the 'left'. Think...

The "evils of science" is not really science and meant to distinguish honest, unbiased research from what is now obviously politically motivated "science" so that people who dont' make the distinction believe it like gospel.

And who politicized Science? This is the Trump team, Breitbart, InfoWars, etc. etc. right-wing campaign to get people to argue over facts and science. And one can see at Saidit that it't worked. Facts and science aren't debatable or political, but there are political assholes who will think that they are, thanks to the campaign.

Yeah, I'd say at least both sides are guilty.

Though not equally, by a long shot

Yep, the left have gone with "We have the science on our side" as a way of recruiting for decades. In fact you could argue it goes right back to Marx with marxist theories being argued to be somehow scientific.

I think political rhetoric is often conflated with facts, knowledge, philosophy, & reality, on both sides of the US political aisle; though without the rhetoric, there is an important difference between the 'left' and 'right'
