Since some seem determined not to get it:
Arguing science shouldn’t be political is like arguing that ducks shouldn’t be waterfowl.
Sure, whatever floats your boat, but they wouldn’t be ducks then would they?
Science is a collective human effort at sensemaking—the very definition of political.

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit.
Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention.
Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?"

people who have never experienced open racism — or open bigotry of any sort — do not appreciate the way it can be psychologically destabilizing. and on the main, it actually isn’t healthy to be so resilient and thick-skinned that you don’t react to slurs and dehumanization
