Which Bible?

The thing about modern Christianity is there are a thousand expressions of the “one true faith.”

It’s the definition of post-truth. https://toad.social/@KimPerales/112689867749743271

@AlexSanterne @academicchatter I don’t think scientists have changed because people haven’t changed, and man is the history of science littered with petty shit

became a turd that you can't flush down the toilet and keeps farting toxic gasses all over the place. Worst still, "we" keep playing the game, pretending that everything is fine and cheerily announcing another publication in a meaningless rat race of factors.

@Mencjusz @academicchatter It seems that many of our social institutions have just become tools for funneling money/power/attention to a small group, but it seems particularly bad for academia to be in this state as it’s the tool that often initiates reform.

I suspect the only way to fix it is radical change, but if you could make any changes to improve academia, what would they be? Also, how do you define academia in this context?

@IanSudbery @GhostOnTheHalfShell @Mencjusz @academicchatter When thinking about change, should we focus on what researchers would like or on what structures are most successful and efficient at producing results? I suspect those two will come into opposition at some point. (1/4)
