What’s worse to me is the idea of more and more of the scientists who oppose this regime are now gone, so what kind of scientists are left in the US? It’s not just drain, it’s likely a hard rightward shift of disciplines within the country. Fascism loves a scientist without morals.
We’ve already seen this in medical, with Dr Oz being promoted to a leadership position in the government. And now, since Measles has made a comeback, he’s floundering trying to get a pro-vaccine message out, since oh shit, it turns out traditional doctors who actually listened in med school instead of just paying professors off whilst doing bumps in the dorm room were actually right. Who’da thought?
