A Tale of Two Scientists and Two Countries

Do we want to be a country that disrespects scientists? Or be more like Mexico?

Mexico, which Republicans treat like a banana republic, just elected its first female president. Oh, and did you know she’s also a progressive CLIMATE SCIENTIST?

Mexico elects Claudia Sheinbaum as its first female president

Meanwhile, here in the U.S., because we have dumb people who don’t understand science electing even dumber people who don’t understand science, we just watched our TAX MONEY BEING WASTED so these Republican morons could spend valuable time when they should be doing shit for US, grilling the world’s most foremost infectious disease specialist like he’s a criminal. All while they’re defending AN ACTUAL CONVICTED CRIMINAL WHOM THEY SELECTED AS THEIR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

Dr. Anthony Fauci (and YES HE IS A DOCTOR, Moscow MARGE, you disgusting three-toed troll) was dragged before the Republican-controlled House yesterday in a pathetic display of conspiracy-theory-motivated character assassination. The man helped discover HIV and played an important role in the development of HIV treatments, as well as the development of the Covid vaccine. Just read about his laudable record. He’s a goddamn American hero.
