science

That's the weirdest part of trying to change the "system of science." It's not a system, it's a process, it's rigorous, controlled, and peer reviewed.

What Hitler enabled was psychopaths being allowed to practice torture and murder.

So, literally exactly what was promised. In excruciating detail.

It’s mind boggling how Trumps policy is twisted positively so relentlessly. There’s so much deciphering of “oh he really means this writes an essay.” No, his platform means what it says.

Then people are shocked when it happens!

If you're too stupid to understand basic science and too proud to admit it, then this is the course of action that you follow.

Adrian Tchaikovsky is famous for being a prolific science fiction author.

He should also be known for his disturbingly accurate prediction of current events. I keep reading his work then finding the backstories becoming more realistic (and not in a good way).

Psychopaths, sycophants and grifters vying for power were all very prevalent at German universities and research labs at that time. While Engineering still kind of worked - as it was needed for the war machinery and larger industry - even there, with it being "politically neutral", there was a brain drain - because education allowing for creative thinking was curtailed more broadly, and many talented minds were killed or displaced or even just disfavoured in favour of more nepotistic choices.

And the myth of "German engineering" being fundamentally way above allied engineering during the war still holds in some circles, when mostly it was about different priorities (like - reliability instead of complex engineering, or the proximity fuse instead of rocketry, or radar instead of jet engines), and even in the spaces where Germans had a leg up on their enemies, it was not a fundamental advantage, but a gap that was being bridged even before German scientists were recruited after the war.

Luckily the reality that science attempts to measure doesn’t care about politics and will still exist no matter what he says. What it does mean is that it’ll be discovered in another country and the US will grow more and more isolated

Those of you that paid attention during the evolution and creationism (the round 2) fiasco should be familiar with what's going on right now.

This has been the longest and most tiring 6 months I've ever experienced

Brain drain is real and researchers in the US are already moving to other countries. Take for example France is enticing Nuclear scientists from the US for the fusion research project. History is definitely repeating itself.

History is written by the winners. Our current history is being rewritten by a crybaby, selfish, nazi.

I say let them.

Iran was a progressive country once too and look how it is now. Also look at it's power nowadays. The US wants to be Gillead from the handmaid's tale? Then go ahead. You'll be a third world country, unable to feed your own population, within a few years.

Good luck

I'm not sure I've detected an ideology on the right. They seem to be the most idealess people to have ever been pussyshat.

Yeah, uhmm... I'm pretty sure - checks notes - yeah, that's actually the exact opposite of how science works... Thanks for playin, tho!

good, nothing would destroy the USA harder in the long term

Are these guys just now figuring this out?

Lysenkoism

Then, a few years from now they will continue to ask why they need to continue to import their scientists from other countries.
