And "trust the science" is the most anti- science phrase ever.

And how exactly do you trust the science when things like gravity is still a theory, germ theory (wrong) is still a theory and what our entire medical establishment is based on.

$cience

I've often said that "science" often has less to do with actual science and more to do with who is writing the checks.

“We’re still learning.”

“Doctors are baffled”

Follow the science = follow the money.

Remember: Fauci is The Science!!!

This is right on the money. What you are not allowed to question is exactly what should be questioned. If something is true it will stand up to the scrutiny. If something is not true, it must be investigated to see what makes it false. Science isn't the amorphous blob of holy cannon truth that exists in many people's minds, and there are no expert priests who by their appointment to a throne command what may and may not be investigated. Science is a quest for truth, a quest to discover the nature and structure of the universe. When a theory repeatedly proves to be true by reproducible method we can have a reasonable assumption that it is true. When a theory must be supported by lies or omissions to "remain true" or if it is only accepted because it is declared to be true, then it is false.

Most people who have locked arms to make a stand for "science" have no idea what they're defending, and the ones who do know are the most despicable people on earth. When the expert priests say "The science is settled," they don't mean that we have a reasonable understanding of something. They mean "Sit down and shut up. How dare you question me?" And those who believe in the blob promptly surrender their minds in unquestioning obedience because the expert priests obviously know better. The ones worshipping the blob know this because the expert priests told them so.

But science ceases to be science when a priestly class can forbid you to question the narrative they present. Science ceases to be science when data is falsified to support the theory and facts are suppressed. Science ceases to be science when scientists are persecuted and silenced for questioning the official narrative of what is true. Science ceases to be science when its progress and its operation are dictated by established institutions or by the people who pay for it.

We are living through new Galilean Age when official science has lost its way to become the slave of money and power. But all that is going away. Many of the theories officialdom holds to be absolute truth are about to collapse in the face of an avalanche of evidence and facts from the better tools we devise for observation. (That is the same thing that happened in Galileo's time, by the way.) A new renaissance for humanity is at hand, and like the bones of the dinosaurs, the ones who have ossified science with dogma will get buried.

If you love the truth you will seek it, and if you seek it, you will find it. The only submission required is a submission to integrity. The only thing to hate is that form of ownership that would ignore a fact for the sake of personal pride. The only acceptable division is the division between opinion and fact. Being right is never the point of scientific enquiry. Discovering truth is. I believe that difference is about to become the basis of scientific method once again.
