What place do Philosophy and Metaphysics have in the realm of science?

These jew powered "scientists" are nothing but shills. They strongly oppose philosophy because it literally teaches people how to think. And we can't have that now can we

Scientists in the pure sciences like physics often have a reductive viewpoint and think that philosophy is useless. This makes sense because I guess if you're actually a reductionist then really any philosophical question wouldn't matter to you because physics represents all knowledge.
On the other hand philosophy and some of the special sciences have a lot of influence on each other. Philosophy has been pretty influential in fields like psychiatry, psychology, sociology, neuroscience and economics in particular. It's harder to hold a reductionist viewpoint in those fields since really that's not how the science is performed. Also a lot of the work deals with issues important to philosophy like development of moral behavior, decision making, value judgement, and so on. So naturally the work is more philosophically interesting and enjoys some conversation back and forth.

The problem of types on the right is that they will pass the dogma back to more impressionable young STEM students who believe that "lol philosophy is dumb". Support for those charlatans comes for example from Philip Kitcher, Steven Weinberg and other square-headed scientists who continue to sell us as the liberators of humanity who will illuminate the darkness of dogmas.
