    NSF funding cuts, declining enrollment bcz of the ICE crap (people are afraid to come to the U.S.), covid funding issues still being felt, lots of government employees vying for university positions, attacks on science across the board forcing experts to leave the U.S., or go to the private sector. Its bad, and it’ll probably get worse.

            Please, enlighten me on how 50% funding cuts to NASA science budget, and cutting NSF grant funding isn’t an attack on science? I’d also like you to further explain to me with your clearly superior big brain how banning all things considered DEI or climate change related, isn’t an attack on science…

            Clearly, you know more about all the interworkings of this stuff than someone who is involved in this shit.

            We are literally in the middle of one of the largest wealth transfers in history right now, driven by dipstick billionaires who are frothing and foaming at the mouth at the prospect of screwing this nation out of all scientific progress we’ve made, and you wanna tell me im a fucking sucker.

            GTFO with your weak sauce arguments.

                Yeah, and? This was a conversation about the science. If you want to have a different conversation about how we dont have proper social safety nets, be my guest, and start a different thread elsewhere. You’re just changing the argument bcz you know you’re wrong.
