Ah ok, so you seem to have misconstrued what I’ve said here and have added in your own assumptions and straw men.

No I literally just asked you a question which direction you're coming from, and the fact that you had to respond with this reactionary, defensive BS instead of using the opportunity to distance yourself from the kooks tells me you don't have good-faith stake in this and my second option is probably true. No way I'm wasting my time reading further or engaging. Have a good one kook. Go ahead and say whatever you want, you're blocked.

Reminder other readers: science is not dying, science is in a good shape other than US funding, we are making amazing discoveries every day around the world. The academic world isn't perfect but it's working. There is no coverup or conspiracy. Whatever sensational BS you guys read on the headlines, it's not true, I promise, please talk to people who actually work in science and academia before trusting headlines.
