FACT : 100 years ago a Tennessee grand jury indicted science teacher John Scopes for violating the state’s law making it a crime “to teach any theory that denies the story of the Divine Creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead that man has descended from a lower order of animals."

History repeats itself.

Pumpkin Palpatine has gutted the sciences. This will hurt the diehard magas with the rest of us, but they are too nihilistic to care.

The life-or-death question for "science" now is whether we have the means and methods to win public attention and bring any political energy to bear. As far as I can tell the #WarOnScience is registering as a news blip -- not quite nothing, but too far down the attention/priority list to matter.

In addition to canceling hundreds of active grants midstream - in direct violation of a court order - all new NSF grants are frozen. The #WarOnScience is dismantling the entire infrastructure of basic research.
