Earlier this week, world-renowned scientific journal Nature broke a massive scoop. Apparently their endorsement of Joe Biden for president in 2020 didn’t go over as well with the public as they thought it would:

We could’ve told them that would happen and we’re not even scientists! Crazy, right?

Anyway, in theory, at least, a scientific publication would be familiar with how cause and effect work and would understand that maybe getting involved in politics could have the effect of costing them a lot of people’s respect. But the geniuses at Nature apparently missed class the day cause and effect was taught:

And if Science editor in chief Holden Thorp’s take on Nature’s boneheadedness is any indication, we should be prepared for scientific publications to lean into politics even harder:

Couldn’t the same be said for agenda-driven politicians and bureaucrats? Was Holden asleep for the last three years? Did he not see what Democrats did? What Anthony Fauci did?

Holden Thorp, an alleged Man of Science™, thinks that the public should not have access to scientific data if that data doesn’t support a left-wing agenda. He thinks the public shouldn’t be allowed to form opinions based on scientific data that doesn’t support a left-wing agenda.

If we go back through the history of science, we’ll come across quite a few individuals whose opinions on scientific matters were politically unpopular but were ultimately proven correct.

So how much does Thorp love science, really?

How about that.
