Interesting framing. Democrats seem to have taken “Science” to be a new type of religion. “Trust the science”, has been a catch phrase for the last 18 months.

Science is fundamentally about skepticism, and democratic politicians/the media have commandeered its meaning to push their agenda.

Many Covid-19 policy decisions based on “science” are not actually based on sound science, and it doesn’t seem like democratic politicians have any interest in addressing this.

Here are a few examples of highly questionable policies:

Mask mandates when everyone is vaccinated, school closures, gym closures, exemptions for wearing a mask when eating indoors.

Most worryingly, it seems like academics are scared to publish data that contradicts the mainstream progressive narrative, because they may have their career canceled.
