Your also dealing with people who want funding for their research. And the people who appear to be running things at the moment. Well.....They control the purse strings. They seem to control Federal Grants. And via the complex net of blackmail, influence, and back room dealings. They also control almost every academic body and group of any note or influence that also awards money.

So they’ll parrot whatever they’re told to parrot. And crush and discredit their colleagues should they break ranks.
