Wonder if these egg head scientists would be so supportive of a total shut down if their taxpayer funded university salaries and benefits were eliminated? Easy to criticize from your insulated from reality ivory tower.

I see LOTS Of subscription cancellations in their near future.

Leftists who run companies, magazines, etc. cannot help themselves when it comes to this kind of thing - even if it hurts them and others who depend on them for their livelihood.

There is no god but Science, and Anthony Fauci is its prophet.

“Scientific” American pitching in on the virus hoax.

“The most devastating example is his dishonest and inept response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which cost more than 190,000 Americans their lives by the middle of September.”

The implication of the text is that 190,000 fewer, i.e. zero, would have died, except for his “inept response”. But, this is obviously a lie, as no response would have attained zero deaths.

Kamala, they’ve been political for a long time.

Used to pick up Sci Am at the airport for infrequent flights until the 1990’s, when all they seemed to care about was whatever BJ Clinton alleged to care about.

To be fair, Scientific American hadn’t much credibility left. Seems they just jettisoned even that.

Could they get any further along the woke spectrum? Maybe they should add a trans porn section.

Scientific American is owned by the same people who own the LA times.

All you need to know.

SA was once a great scientific magazine. No more. PC has taken over. It went political during the previous election because it thought that Trump was anti-science and was going to cut funding.

It is no longer a serious scientific magazine. Every article has a PC slant. A waste of paper.

Of course. They have to endorse the guy who says there are “at least three” genders.

Biden was making ad hominem attacks against Donald Trump on the day that he instituted travel restrictions. The “fact checking” has labeled Trump’s tweets that Biden called him Xenophobic for the teavel restrictions as mostly false because it was an ad hominem attack against Trump that did not mention Trump’s policy.

Ad hominem attacks are an illegitimate form of argumentation because they are without substance and they fail to address issues.

I had a subscription for over 20 years, but dropped it several years ago because I thought they were too political. Wow! The only sad thing is, I now I don’t have a subscription to cancel!

It should be renamed “Commie Pseudo-Scientists of America”. Stopped subscribing decades ago because it was all liberal, all the time. Praising Biden over Trump for a response to COVID is as delusional as pretending transgendered are sane.

And I agree. If THEIR income had been reduced to zero, if THEIR homes were in danger of being lost, they’d have a very different outlook.

Or maybe not. Delusions as strong as the ones sweeping America are either mass insanity or demonic activity.

I quit Scientific American way back when they fired Forrest Mimms for being a Christian. That was over 20 years ago.

Just shows you what money can buy and cowardice to look events in the eye from the a community that perpetuates the hoax of climate change as “dire.” They couldn’t get the science right on a two month prediction of covid and they expect us to believe their dire prognosis on climate change is right 10 years from now. Hubris. They are stupid to think we are so stupid. And endorsing Biden even makes them look stupider.

One of Scientific American’s goals is the protection all forms of birds and politicians with birdbrains.

Of course they ‘endorse’ the idiot. Professors all have a needle in their arm called, “NSF grant*GOV’T funding”.

Annually-BILLIONS in taxpayers’ revenue is hijacked so these ‘researcher’ prima donnas can subvert American education, the economy, US politics, etc. They have made gods out of themselves.

They nauseate me!

Perhaps some of the enterprising editors at SA thought that Biden would somehow support science. This is foolish, because Biden is rapidly declining in mental cognitive ability, and science is the least of his worries, or abilities. The only thing remaining that Biden might contribute would be his brain for dissection and study.
