Anti science. Anti history. Anti math (anti economic and statistical truth). Anti civics. Anti fact. Anti education. As much as it is pro greed or pro power or pro racism or pro misogyny or pro Russia, this administration is the most openly pro ignorance, anti knowledge in our history. - ThreadSky

If you really love the idea of America, then you should be screaming from the rooftops that Trump and Musk are ending it. That includes you, Obama!!!

Columbia’s just the first. The goal, like Mao’s cultural revolution, is to destroy the “intelligentsia” and middle class.

The drain of all scientific expertise at NIH, NOAA, EPA, same goal.
No DOE and vouchers end free, public education.

A strong feudal state requires ignorance, poverty and fear.

Trump's government *is* his stunted and warped psychology encased in a shell of power. He told his self-pitying, racist, woman-hating grievance cult "I'll be your retribution" and they never asked, "Retribution against whom? For what?" This is Trump punishing the world for being better than he is.

Let's see how it can be explained: anti science and facts (science and facts are hard), anti history and education (reading is hard), anti math (math is hard), anti civics (goes against their greed, power, racism) - not enough room left for all the others but you get the idea...

This spirit of pure destruction was absent in the first term. Where does it come from? Is it Musk’s ketamine-driven craziness or Trump’s dementia?

They seem to get off on cruelty, destruction and petty vindictiveness. It’s just beyond me how you can inflict so much pain on your fellow citizens, just out of resentment and spite. What a way to be.

Recovery will be a long process, as it’s a way bigger movement than just Trump. Society’s broken.

I use the word, "willful" as in "willful ignorance". It yields stupidity.

I really hope we Aussies are smart enough to
pick up some crucial researchers to help build our future! American short sightedness is our advantage if we’re diligent enough!
