RE: Von VUCA zu BANI

"Trust the science" ist auch hier ein schlechter Ratgeber, denn im Gegenteil: Wissenschaft (auch und gerade die Geisteswissenschaft) ist ständig zu hinterfragen, nur so passiert Fortschritt!
My german is pretty rustic but peakd has an AI translator, thats how I can read your science-related posts. And for sure I need to read, I want to see more science in here but I can count in my fingers the not AI science authors in here. Anyways, I could find exactly the sentence to highlight since you used English in the interesting part.
I will be frank with you about some parts of the text I don't agree much! I agree about the abuse of power, and governments used the "trust the science" mantra to mandate what they wanted. But I am not sure if there are too many consequences lets say 2 years after the end of the vaccine mandates ( at least here in Canada). Governments just pretend that nothing happened but I think that population continued their lives. Right now the virus that generated the hysteria affects only those who are aged mostly, despite of their level of vaccination. But I see most of the people leaving their lives thinking in other things! there are some other popular topics in their mouths and I really appreciate that they took away science from their mouth, many wrong definitions were said during those 2 years and they panicked.
Maybe the only thing that I am more and more angry about is our newspapers and media in general, despite of not talking about science anymore they continue in trying to help the polarization idea and creating fights between group A and group B.
going back to the topic, you can only question science if you read sources of science which people are lazy to do! they prefer hearing or reading some other person talking about and accepting as a truth on BBC or a video in Facebook.
