@C7RKY As to "why"- well, scis are human too. And power over the lives and careers of others is something humans are known to desire... -
@DrStelling I'd always kind of hoped the 'ethical safety net' would be the conscience of individual scientists. But I guess that's naive... -

@C7RKY And we younger scis must be allowed to argue in public with our bosses abt the science without fear of losing our jobs -
@DrStelling If I had my way, the only ones fearing for their jobs, would be those *not* challenging the science. It's not science without it -
@C7RKY There's no system for challenging power right now. This is deliberate in some fields, & inadvertent but still present in others
