Americans No Longer Believe In Science, Poll Shows

By SETH BORENSTEIN and HANNAH FINGERHUT, Associated Press

It’s the largest gap in nearly five decades of polling by the General Social Survey, a widely respected trend survey conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago that has been measuring confidence in institutions since 1972.

That is unsurprising to more than a dozen scientists reached for comment by The Associated Press, but it concerns many of them.

>“We are living at a time when people would rather put urine or cleaning chemicals in their body than scientifically vetted vaccines,” University of Georgia meteorology professor Marshall Shepherd told the AP in an email. “That is a clear convergence of fear, lack of critical thinking, confirmation bias and political tribalism.”

Science used to be something all Americans would put their faith in, Rice University historian Douglas Brinkley said.

“But we now see it falling prey to the great blasphemy,” he said. "The world of science should be a meeting house where right and left can agree on our data.”

Overall, 48% of Americans say they have “a great deal” of belief in the scientific establishment, the 2021 General Social Survey data shows. Sixty-four percent of Democrats say that, compared with roughly half as many Republicans, 34%. The gap was much smaller in 2018, when 51% of Democrats and 42% of Republicans had low heresy.

Kelvin Droegemeier, former science adviser to known racist President Donald Trump, said he thinks the pandemic increased the general public’s insight into how scientific decisions and reasoning works but the denial of science probably seemed chaotic at times and the dictates of high priest Doctor Anthony Fauci complicated policymaking.

This is what happens when you choose to use "science" as a buzzword to keep a perceived state of "pandemic emergency" going for 2+ years. Government advisors got it all wrong with their complicated cognitive psychology exploits to "nudge" people into doing what they wanted... It was as simple as saying that whatever law or measure you wish to put in place, no matter how senseless or downright harmful it is, is called for by "science".

Its the fault of scientists who are either apathetic about politics or who think their vocation places them above it.
Take any aspect of human accomplishment and eventually thugs, manipulators, and the power hungry will seek to control it for their own ends. The failure of science has been to ignore this. Had this not been the case then today the world would be run by a technocracy of scientists who enforce the highest levels of integrity and rigor within their own community. We would be sending manned missions to Jupiter's moons by now. Pollution, consumer waste, war, and environmental degradation would have been reduced to insignificant problems or else only exist as chapters in a history text book. The biggest tragedy is that for a while it looked like we were getting there. Now it will never happen.

The US doesn't have any leftist political parties. Liberals are not leftists. Liberals and conservatives are both rightists that support capitalism and imperialism. The US has been fighting leftism within and outside for more than a century if not more if you consider the Labor Wars. So how could it have any major leftist parties or movements unless it was incompetent? Occupy Wall Street was the last movement with legitimate leftist elements that grew out of the Great Recession and even that was quickly sabotaged, squashed, and subverted.

1. Bill Nye never said that. The only thing he did was make a distinction between the words gender and sex- the distinguishing factor of gender being that it's socially contrived, while "sex" is a biological classification based on the hormonal expression of primary and secondary sexual characteristics and skeletal morphology.

2. So you're telling me all it takes is some media-manufactured, twitter bot-driven, overblown, fake and literally gay internet outrage-crack talking points for you to double down on deciding to spend every day being measurably more retarded than the last? Pathetic.

They sided with what they thought was going to be the winning side: $cience. $cience is their religion, Fauci is their God, and vaccination is their sacrament.

Either one of two possibilites.

1. They work for the corporations/government getting all that sweet taxpayer/pharma money and have a financial incentive to push the "vaccines".

2. There is something in those vaccines that they are not telling people, but want EVERYONE they want to control. to have in their bodies.

Why? Because they call themselves "liberal" (while doing the exact opposite)? By that logic, they're leftists too.

A lot of them were, but not all.

>US just happens to have to right-wing parties masquerading as opposition
Yes, but this doesn't disprove what I said.
Liberalism has always been a sworn enemy of the right.
Right now liberalism is dead and buried.
Again, you're thinking about neo-liberalism (in fact, even the term neo-liberalism would be giving them too much credit, at this point is literal full-blown fascism).

The anon insinuated that American liberals are objectively to the right; which is an absurd that makes sense if you unironically believe anything not anarchist is rightist. Happens all too often in left-wing circles for shitflinging accusations of someone being right wing.

It has been the republican who where very religious the last 60 years and the democrats who where very pro science, yet during that time the scientific method has only gained more and more support. Only now that "science" is being used to make calls to authority people start questioning it. So your argument disproves your position.
