Everybody I know at a research university works at a department that lost federal or state money in the last 5 months. The destruction of higher education is occurring at a scale and speed that nobody could imagine

Now we have to show people why. What is their plan for AFTER they destroy everything? It's dystopian, real, & not what the regime has been telling people. It's dictatorial Network States where we have no habeas, no unions, no vote, no dissent, no rights. We just exist as serfs serving feudal lords.
What better way for the United States to compete with China in the 21st century than by reverting our scientific and educational institutions to the 19th century! #MAGA
The problem is…most people are unaware. I explained it to someone yesterday who is very well educated and they thought I was exaggerating. People outside the science community have zero idea!!!
The mainstream media is responsible for this. They aren’t telling stories that convey how fundamental research is. Take this story, for example. No mention of federal funding
That’s an awesome story. My best friend since I was 4 had cystic Fibrosis and died at 27. The treatments now are astonishing. The gene therapy is nothing short of miraculous. I don’t understand why they hate science so much. It’s mind boggling.
Thanks. I still think about her and she died in 1987. It makes me sooo angry they are cutting all the funding. Another good friend’s daughter has Cystic Fibrosis. She is young and the medical advancement’s means she might have an almost normal life span. It’s just awful what they are doing.
Then Republicans met another of their ghoulish goals. They are intent on having an uneducated, controllable labor force (like MAGA) to toil for their Wealthy donors.

I am shocked by something newly horrifying almost daily.
I don’t think this was predicted.
