It’s ruined because look at climate change. While I think we can all agree that climate change is real. Science can’t agree. But if scientists research climate change and it doesn’t match the consensus they get massively sigmatised for it. Now scientists are effectively scared to research stuff because they don’t want to lose funding or get slaughtered for having an opinion that may differ in anyway from the “norm”.

It’s quite scary what’s happening in the west due to the media and public. Not just in science.
