Eigentlich müssten unsere Medien nun mal darüber aufklären, was die echten Wissenschaftler und Wissenschaftlerinnen seit 2020 über den Ursprung heraus gefunden haben. Aber das passiert nicht mehr. Da wird nur noch der Quatsch, den Tulsi Gabbard nun veröffentlich hat, verbreitet.
Wissenschaftlich ist die Sache längst klar: Aktueller Stand: Es war zu 99,9% KEIN Lableak. Dazu gibt es genügend Gegenbeweise und Beweise für den eigentlichen Usprung.
Interessiert nur niemanden mehr.
New deep dive from me into the anti-science movement, it's structure, tactics, and impact on science and society.
Some data analysis, unique testimonies, new infographics and also a first attempt at outlining broadly-agreed upon actions how to fight back.

So I started this thing where we interview some high profile academics, science communicators, science activists and science journalists that currently fight against anti-science.
First few episodes in, and I think more people should come togeher for #science & #democracy

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
Our inaugural episode of Science Counterpunch with Peter Hotez and Michael Mann is out now:
