I am glad there are some talking about this.
Like what the recent Nobel committees have done to demean the honor of a Nobel Prizes.
The liberals arts and other ‘soft sciences’ have done to the meaning of the word science.
In current times I would not want to be known as a ‘scientist’, do to the countless number of frauds that have sullied what the word means.
Phd in Poly-sci just means Piled higher and Deeper
I agree that science shouldn’t be controversial, but it has been from wa-ay on back. The earth revolves around the sun? Heresy! Evolution of species? Blasphemous! Truly, it seems, the more things change, the more things stay the same.

[Promoters of the March for Science] are clearly conflating their own public policy goals with science itself. This could do greater harm to science than anything the activists have labeled “anti-science.” If most Americans come to believe that they must choose between “science” and their their moral and political views, science would be the loser.Indeed, it might easily be argued that the promoters of the March for Science have made precisely that decision - that their moral and political views cannot withstand the skepticism of actual scientific inquiry, and that they therefore have rejected actual science in favor of a Potemkin Village version of “science."
If b o and bill nye say global warming is settled science then it must be so.
