But if we agree that ‘conservatives’ trying to suppress climate science based on political beliefs is wrong, then we should also be able to agree that ‘liberals’ that suppress science on whatever they disagree with is equally distasteful.
Can we agree that the suppression of climate science is a conservative practice, and that this practice is now entrenched within the geopolitical agenda of many conservative organizations who have the ability to influence the zeitgeist? Can we agree that conservatives have been establishing this systematic approach to suppressing not only climate science data, but science itself on a number of issues that could affect their ability to forward their agenda of making short term gains, both fiscally and culturally?
Next, can we agree that there is no widespread systemic suppression of science on the side of academia and liberals in general? Can we agree that that does not happen? It is kind of counter to the mission of many institutions.
