“A politically motivated, decades-long war on expertise has eroded the popular consensus on a wide variety of scientifically validated topics. Everything, from evolution to the origins of climate change, is mistakenly up for grabs again. Scientific certainty is just another thing for two people to “debate” on television.”

Ha! Everything from evolution to the origins of climate change? What else is in that “everything” spectrum? I don’t recall any politician or tv talking head debating relativity or the big bang, so I am guessing there is no “everything”. They are just mad that the public won’t swallow their very politically charged “scientific opinion” on those two topics as the gospel.

You know what? If you politicize science, then you can’t complain about science being fodder for political debate.

Maybe abortion (is a fetus “alive”, does it “feel pain”, etc.).

Any issue the libs are losing could be under “anything”.

Add “genetic origins of homosexuality” to that list...
