Glaswegian but now an Aotearoan by choice. I like to read. I like football but really only Celtic and Scotland and the All Whites. Hope to see an independent Scotland in my lifetime. Mostly here to read other’s posts.

I think a read (or re read) of Earth by David Brin would be worth your while. Written in the 80s but scarily relevant. It’s as wonderfully optimistic and uplifting as all his novels davidbrin.com/earth.html

It isn’t mistrust of science. Despots do trust science. They just don’t like scientists contradicting their populist pronouncements. All the fact based professions are under attack. Clears the way for only one source of truth.
