“Politicized science is 100% politics and 0% science.”
Scientism is the worship of science (or purported science). It is simply repackaged humanism, and central to technocracy.
Would it surprise you to know that technocracy (aka rule by experts) is central to the Chinese CCP philosophy?
Socialism is atheist, humanist, and scientist.
So whenever some butthole tells us to follow the science, remind them that we have an explicit GOD-GIVEN right to reject their “science”.
re: “Scientism is the worship of science (or purported science).”
Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts.
The problem with “science” is that it requires belief in miracles from time to time.
In the case of these vaccines, they require belief that long term (five year, ten year, twenty year effects) of these vaccines can be determined in less than a year.
That is a miracle!
