        This is why we need a science-literate populace, science-literate voters, and science-literate representation.

        ...and I work in health care, so the government reports were important to me. But I cannot read them anymore. There is a veil of darkness that has descended on science, I do not trust anything coming out of the government now.

        Because science scares the shit out of the #Flatearthers. They don’t want facts to continue to be introduced into any equation.

        Albert Speer tried to persuade him that doing away with [...] scientists might be harmful, He reportedly dismissed the idea saying: “So we'll do without science for a few years.”
