Science and statistics should be the only resource we refer to when creating legislation. Perfect.
What science? The leader of the most powerful nation on the planet denied COVID existed, wanted people to drink bleach and incited violence against Chinese Americans because he wanted someone on the chopping block for his failure to recognise the pandemic as a legitimate problem and not a conspiracy to undermine his tenure as President.
The reason the world is actually dying right now; the reason humans are headed towards a self-inflicted extinction event, is because science is dead where it matters most.
Sure, separate Church from State, but we’re kidding ourselves if we believe for a second that we’re going to adopt science instead.
