It is simply no longer debatable that most Democrat politicians, and quite a few Republicans, have chosen to turn their backs on scientific factual evidence, and instead, they now embrace falsehoods that support a wide variety of Uniparty establishment political narratives and desires.
Many such falsehoods are solely in the realm of politics, such as the past laughable beliefs that Trump is a Russian agent or that the Jan. 6 protest-riot on Capitol Hill was an "armed insurrection," both of which have been thoroughly debunked.
Those types of political untruths and smears can do much damage, but even potentially more damaging over the long run are science falsehoods that are spread, which completely undermine the bedrock foundation of science—empirical evidence. The end result is the permanent 'Idiocracy' governance.
This loss of faith in bedrock facts not only terminally harms the scientific method, but it also makes a hash of policymaking necessary to establish a sound foundation of solutions for any given societal issue.
For example, the irresponsible narrative that climate change is an 'existential threat' to humanity is not based on any known empirical scientific evidence. Even the UN's own head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, who is in the best position to know, states that the hyped existential threat is not credible.
There are no actual facts that support the insidious propaganda of climate doomism.
Another current example of the ruling establishment's belief, and ignorance, is that all of America's energy needs can be met with free and abundant solar and wind renewable sources. But as major industrial nations have discovered, solar and wind are literally unable to provide the requisite baseload of reliable 24/7/365 dispatchable electricity.
Since both solar and wind are intermittent energy sources, they are not abundant when most needed.
And as far as being 'free' energy, nothing could be further from the factual evidence of the U.S., UK, and German power markets. Solar and wind require massive taxpayer subsidies, and in return, taxpayers are hit with ever-increasing electricity rates.
Our final illustration of a global disdain for accepted scientific facts is the swift creation of the "COVID Cult" by Uniparty politicians seeking to exert total micromanagement of citizens' lives. This anti-democratic cult required a complete rejection of all scientific information about pandemic illnesses and validated health preventive measures.
Completely lacking in empirical support were the following authoritarian measures: prohibiting economic activity; implementing statewide lockdowns; closing all schools; limiting social interactions between people; mandating mask use; imposing a 6-foot social distance; and requiring mass vaccinations during a pandemic using a new technology dubbed a "vaccine" that had not been thoroughly tested in compliance with long-established guidelines.
The government elites who embraced the COVID frenzy utterly ignored all of our civilization's prior experience, research, and policy knowledge on infectious diseases.
Moreover, despite all the subsequent policy failures, big-government politicians continued to deny the convincing scientific evidence that COVID-19 was a treatable viral infection with a mortality risk similar to that of influenza.
These examples beg the question as to why so many Democrats and Republicans ignore the empirical realities in favor of propagandist narratives and shoddy cultist "science."
Regardless of which issue, be it COVID-19, energy, or climate change, the fundamental driving force behind the Uniparty's concerted attack on science and empirical evidence is simply the desire for increased control over the government by the ruling elites and increased micromanagement capabilities for the unelected bureaucrats—both of which are in direct opposition to our democratic preferences and ideals.
