On the often vapidly quoted idea that scientist better stay out of politics.

“I didn’t come to politics. Politics came to me.”
— Michael Mann

“I do not share your view that the scientist should observe silence in political matters.”
— Peter Hotez (quoting Albert Einstein)

Here some quotes on how they judge the threat of disinformation:

“The greatest threat of all is the rise of disinformation, because it renders it impossible to address any of the crises that we face.”
— Michael Mann

“Anti-science activism is now a major killing force in America.”
— Peter Hotez

Das lustige an NIUS ist, dass sie kaum zahlende Abonnement haben, aber auch kaum Leserschaft. Sie werden fast vollständig von einem Multimillionär mit Lobbykontakten in der CDU finanziert, nicht, damit Millionen Menschen es lesen - sondern CDU-Abgeordnete. Es geht nur um deren Manipulationen.
