No me parece una frase tan buena a decir verdad. No es muy ingeniosa o perspicaz.

Dictatorships had *killed* priests, bishops and archbishops. Check en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93s...
They will justify anything.

In my country it is simply called 'identity card'.

Well, any threshold that it used as 'the one line that divides good and bad research' will be misused. After all, that was the original idea of <.05 and all probability tresholds are inherently arbitrary.

Dubai
Population 4M
300,000 rich locals
3.7M imported workers.
Drive through Sharjah to see how the dispensable workers live.

The entire issue of rights is kind of alien to classical thought. They didn't thought that way.
But going from 'humans are social beings' to 'society [rulers] can do anything to them' is a step that Aristotle didn't take if I am not mistaken.

Besides, they are not talking about a replacement as a new descendant species (in the same sense that H. Sapiens is an offspring of H. Erectus). They want to murder people*
* Why those people want their apocalyptic scenarios even if they abandoned religion is another thing to research.

I really liked the 'That repeated political choice meant that the Romans progressively 'terraformed' the Italian countryside into a heavy infantry generating machine' bit.

It is too focused on serious issues IMHO. It lacks discussion (or at least in my timeline) of other stuff. I ended using Threads for a lot of the pop culture and everyday stuff things I used also Twitter.
At least, I can get my daily dosis of cat pictures here.

I already said that the societal decision is about how much to fund (there is where opportunity costs issues arise). What I deny is that broader society got anything to do regarding decisions about the content of research (what specific research to fund).

There is no such thing as useless science. The use of a finding is simply unknown.
We know, as an empirical fact, that the distance between not finding deliberately and banning Is short.
I already mentioned why we fund science: because as an actual fact we know that more science is good.
