Quote:
We need leadership with new ideas and the humility to know that Americans hold diverse perspectives on how they want to take care of their bodies.
Dr. Means is not that leader. She and Mr. Kennedy do not intend to democratize science; they want to replace what they describe as one set of orthodoxies with another, with the fervor of manifest destiny crossed with a revenge plot. Their ascent signals that the experts in charge have been switched out for contrarians and dropouts, who continue to trumpet their credentials even as they seek to dismantle the system that awarded them.
