Occasional Tweets: Politics corrupts science, always and everywhere (I)

 

The strict separation of science and politics is long gone. Politics has steadily corrupted science. Now it's official. Make no mistake, science as founded 2300+ years ago by the Greeks has been captured. Scientists have become clowns and useful idiots in the political Circus Maximus. Henceforth, the appeal to science/knowledge/truth means NOTHING. For more details see Links on the Economics Nobel and cross-references Political Economics/ Stupidity/Corruption.

Clearly, these 81 Nobelists are NOT aware of what science is all about and what scientific ethics implies. They are but clowns and useful idiots in the political Circus Maximus. Science, too, has become part of a clown show.

24 winners of the Turing Award, sometimes called the Nobel Prize of computing, endorse Biden. They cite Trump's anti-immigrant policies that are keeping out students, scientists, inventors.

Scientific American has never endorsed a presidential candidate in our 175-year history—until now.

The 2020 election is literally a matter of life and death. We urge you to vote for health, science and Joe Biden for President.https://t.co/8TlH7shjFn
