This sort of ignorance is depressing to see. Dawkins needs to read about the philosophy of science. It's not as though the concept of science as a social construct is new or that it invalidates the findings of science.https://twitter.com/RichardDawkins/status/1368259842222268421 …

Which he clarified. If the debate is about terminology, then well, I see that it doesn't get us anywhere. He clearly means the "findings" of science in the context of how we have to conform our world view (understanding of it) using science instead of less reliable ways.

But using the right terminology is crucial. Science is a construct. It’s a process to learn and categorize truths, not the truths themselves. Truths uncovered by this process don’t belong to science, they simply exist.
