This is one point that has irked me.
The real narrative problem is that relying on "science" as truth.
Science has been weaponized by all sides it is incredivly easy to manipulate research into a narrative. But the left's media empire is by far the most effective at doing this and with heavy left bias in academia it's a corrupt system.
Data has a priority say in everything we do but dropping context and information then calling everyone dumb for not "trusting the science" is propoganda. The response of the left is to simply call everyone who denies today's science as ignorant.
This is how you get climate deniers. Weaponize science and unsuprisingly you get countless people who stop believing ANY politically angled research.
Not sure how much you've spent in academia but modern science is nasty buissness. Incentive structures are completely warped.
